Funki Griller is a steakhouse and grill on Westover Road, a short walk from Bournemouth town centre and the seafront gardens. The kitchen is built around prime cuts, ribeye and sirloin cooked to order, alongside grilled meats, seafood and a genuine spread of vegetarian and vegan dishes, so mixed groups aren't limited to a single steak-only menu.
The food
Steaks are the headline, served simply so the meat does the talking. The kitchen also runs to grilled dishes and seafood beyond the steak list, with a dedicated vegetarian and vegan selection alongside. A "Little Griller" kids' menu covers smaller appetites, and a Sunday roast returns seasonally with premium cuts and traditional trimmings.
Drinks and atmosphere
The bar runs its own crafted cocktail list alongside wines and beers, with a daily Happy Hour until 6pm keeping things easy on the wallet earlier in a visit. Live music adds to the bar's warm, sociable feel later on, making it as much a spot for a few drinks as a sit-down steak dinner.
Good to know
Hours differ through the week: Monday to Friday the bar opens from 3pm and the kitchen from 4pm, while at weekends both open from 1pm, worth confirming closing times directly before you travel, as these can vary. Two steaks with chips are pitched at around £30, putting it in solidly mid-range territory for the town centre. Book a table by phone, email or through the restaurant's website.
