Welcome
to The Mitre

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Market town of Shaftesbury in Dorset sits the charming Mitre located on the High Street in the heart of the town. Locally famous for our tiered outdoor decking space with stunning views overlooking Melbury Hill and across the Blackmore Vale. Just a stones throw away from the famous Gold hill featured in Ridley Scott's Hovis advert.

Soak up the Spring Sunshine on our gorgeous decking area whilst taking in the breath taking Dorset countryside views. Best enjoyed by sipping on one of our signature cocktails. Come evening cosy up with a warm fluffy blanket and watch the beautiful sunset from our terrace with the perfect bottle of wine.

Our food changes with the season – one of the best Sunday roasts in Dorset – vegan and vegetarian options are not to be trifled with either! – serving all of your favourite pub classics, show- stopping specials and delicious deserts our menus are bursting with flavour and seasonality everyone will enjoy.

We encourage you to download our app “Youngs on tap” ahead of your visit for easy, fast and Covid safe ordering! The App has some really great benefits including simple ordering straight to your table, start up a tab, split your bill with friends or why not change our music to become the Mitre DJ! Keep your eyes peeled for little treats and freebies in the “my treats” section on the app. Our team are more than happy to help with all aspects of the app and are able to help you download, set up and place your first order if you’re feeling a little daunted! Please feel free to ask any of the team any App related queries you may have.
