Perched in a prime position along Swanage’s pretty high street parade a few footsteps from the seafront, La Trattoria is a delightful Italian and seafood restaurant serving up the fruits of the bay with a Mediterranean twist.
Enjoy fresh fish, crabs and oyster caught by local fishermen alongside traditional Italian dishes like pizza and pasta. Head chef Michael Clark has worked here for 28 years, perfecting the menu and a variety of mouthwatering specials featuring fresh sea bass, cod and whole dover sole.
If you fancy a light bite at lunch, head to La Trattoria’s pavement café Fortes Café Tratt right next door.
