Sandbanks’ Charity Lunches

3rd – 20th November 2025

A good lunch can do a lot of good. This November, join us in Sandbanks for our annual charity lunches, this year we’re celebrating 50 years of Rick Stein restaurants while raising funds for Diverse Abilities, a Dorset charity supporting children and adults with physical and learning disabilities for 70 years.

Served 12pm – 3pm excluding Sundays

Three menus, one great cause

This year we’re offering not one but three menus to choose from that reflect our story over the decades, from the early days in Padstow to dishes inspired by Rick’s travels and the celebrated classics.

The Early Years: £27.50
The Best of Rick’s Travels: £32.50
The Celebrated: £37.50

Choose your menu, and if something from a lower-priced menu tempts you, you can swap dishes as you please.

A £2.50 donation per guest will be added to your bill, going directly to Diverse Abilities.

About Diverse Abilities

Founded in 1955, Diverse Abilities is Dorset’s only charity that supports people of all ages with physical and learning disabilities and their families too.

From running day centres and respite homes to offering specialist advice, therapy and family support, they’re there through every stage of life, helping people live as independently and fully as possible.

We’re proud to be working with them in their 70th year to raise funds and shine a light on the difference they make in our community.

A meal with purpose

These charity lunches are about good food, good company, and supporting a local cause close to our hearts. Whether you’re regular to our dining room or joining us for the first time, it’s a lovely way to share a meal and make a difference.
