Sandacres, Sandbanks, Poole

Sandacres is located at the bottom of a block of apartments in the exclusive area of Sandbanks where the rich and famous choose to live. Apparently this spit that runs across Poole Harbour has the fourth largest land value by area in the world and there are some very impressive beach properties that can be viewed from the road that runs the length of it. The pub isn’t all that to look at and wouldn’t look out of place in the heart of an estate. The interior is comfortable and made up by a large L shaped bar area and a games area to the left rear that houses table football and three pool tables. There are a couple of plasma screens that were showing muted Olympics and some background music was playing. San Miguel was available alongside a standard draught range and the five hand pumps were drawing Ringwood Best (x2), Palmer’s Dorset Gold, St Austell’s Tribute and Hop Back’s Summer Lightening. Food is available and the mains are priced around the £9 mark which is very reasonable considering the location. I found the service to be friendly and would have no problem returning here if I found myself in this area again.
