About Eighteen

Nestled within the historic Kings Arms Hotel in Christchurch,
Eighteen Restaurant & Bar redefines the art of dining in Dorset.

Our modern British kitchen celebrates the finest local producers across Dorset and Hampshire, transforming seasonal ingredients into sophisticated plates that honour farm-to-table tradition with contemporary flair.

From first light breakfast through refined afternoon service and into elegant evening dining, we invite you to experience more than just a meal. As day transitions to night, Eighteen evolves — where culinary excellence meets curated cocktails, carefully selected wines, and the smooth sophistication of weekend jazz.

This is dining reimagined: arrive for dinner, stay until close. A complete evening, thoughtfully crafted.

Open seven days a week, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
