Just an updated opinion - visited the New Star a couple of Saturdays ago - pub hasn't changed much since our last visit ( about 18months ago).
Good set of regulars - friendly and all seemed to be either watching TV or playing cards!
The beer was really good, welcoming atmosphrer and we didn't eat but the food that came out seemd plentiful.
They had a karaoke starting when we were there which is not our thing but seemed very well received anyway and the folk in there were enjoying themselves.
Back in Poole again in June so will be revisiting!

Good pub - as other comments suggest mainly students but also a good mix. Nice and airy. Beer good, didn't eat so can't comment on the grub.
Only downside is that we went in on the advertised quiz night. Fairly quiet and the "DJ/Quizmaster" was terrible. Oldish guy who talked far too much and full of himself - spoilt it so we got up & left.
Will definitely go back there again for the good beer & food but wouldn't recommend the quiz on a Monday.

The Brunswick Hotel, Bournemouth
Good guest beer - Brains Sa - really nice.
Football on so quite lively but still good atmosphere & very welcoming.
Pity it's a bit off beaten track as would probably get more customers but then that could be a good thing as well!
