Further to my previous comments I visited again today, 19th June, 2021, and was greeted in the same friendly way as before. In particular Martin showed me to my table and explained the Covid Track and Trace form and gave me the menu. I have usually had the Chilli and I did again today. It was excellent as usual. Though the staff are disabled they do an excellent job and are always cheerful. If you have not visited please do and support this very worthy cause.

Cheese and ham omelette and chips, plus a slice of the superb Red Velvet Sponge Cake and a pot of tea, As always a definite 10/10 rating on service, quality and quantity. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone in or visiting Basingstooke.

This was my first visit to The Dome Café to have lunch with my friend, and I have to say I will definitely be visiting again. The food was absolutely lovely, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming and a very relaxing atmosphere. I will definitely be recommending to my friends. Thank you so much.

Visited the cafe a few times since it reopened. It was never crammed in, but now the space between tables is the most I’ve seen post Covid. Food as always great, and it’s always nice to support not just a local businesses but a local charity that makes a real change in disabled peoples lives, both long term and day to day.

Just had lunch and it was very good. A lot of effort has gone into making the cafe corona virus compliant. Come and support this worthwhile local charity.

The breakfast Friday road show rolled into town in Skiddy Pete's pick up truck! We wanted to try out the Dome after reading all the 5* reviews!!!Upon arrival place was clean and tidy and staff friendly.We ordered up a couple of 'big' breakfasts and away we go....Timing was excellent, quick efficient service and food came out in no time at all!Food was 'good' but definitely room for improvement. The toast and bacon were very poor! the rest was good, special mention for the old black pudding which was delicious! also found various parts slightly over fried! but then I do tend to favour the more 'cooked' breakfast.I would have also expected a 'BIG / LARGE' Breakfast to have consisted of more than 1 unit per item, and felt a bit on the small side if I'm honest.Another special mention must also go to the Coffee which was very nice! Very nice indeed!!!All in all this is a good place and very reasonable for price!Didn't see the toilets so cam not comment on them.

Well - what can I say!! After my third Festive Lunch this year (once on my own and twice with friends) I can say that Cafe Dome have excelled themselves - with over 800 covers being served between 2 and 20 December. The choices, quality and quantity of food is as usual excellent, the service and atmosphere perfect. Definitely 10/10 on all aspects; I cannot recommend Cafe Dome highly enough.

My 3rd time to the cafe dome and what a great bunch of people running this place this is a marvellous cafe helping people to get on in life, all are genuinely happy to see you and wanting to help. I had a great breakfast which I thoroughly enjoyed. Thank-you so much for making us welcome. We will return.

Me & my sister along with my son (who I might add doesn’t cope well in social situations due to GDD & SPD ) visited twice this week & both times was greater by a lovely calming atmosphere. All the staff were polite & service was amazing. They gave my little boy some colouring bits to keep him occupied, the music was not too loud & the pricing is very good. We aim to make it a weekly trip as a little family as it seems to be the place that my son feels calm enough not to just stay for 5/10 mins he will actually join us in Eating our food. And even more so as it’s great quality food & it’s supporting the local community

I try to visit Cafe Dome once a week (or more) either for breakfast or lunch. Excellent food, friendly and efficient staff - what more can you ask for. I can fully recommend the Big Breakfast - improved now that "extras" can be added but a good fill anyway. If after a lunch the omelette or sausages and mash are favourites of mine. Even if you are not after a full meal I can thoroughly recommend their selection of cakes (made on the premises) with a pot of tea. If you have not yest visited The Dome please do; you will not be disappointed!!!

I was on a rare trip to Basingstoke and was looking for a full English breakfast and the Café Dome came up trumps. It is table service and the All day breakfast was an ideal Brunch. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Called in for an All-Day Breakfast. I was greeted with a friendly welcome and big smile. Order was taken promptly and the brekfast was perfectly cooked and a good portion size. The cafe is spotless and atmosphere cheery and friendly. This will now be my cafe of choice. Such a pleasant change to the normal standard of sullen and disinterested service!

A friend and I had lunch here. We were served by lovely people and chose an omelette salad and chips. Had we realised how generous the portions were we would have shared one meal between the two of us. We really enjoyed it and met some very hard working people who are doing a wonderful job. I recommend the cafe to anyone interested in supporting people with learning disabilities, as you can enjoy well cooked food at a moderate price where it is obvious the staff all enjoy their work. Oh and another thing - the staff are not afraid to smile which is a refreshing change!

This is a small café run by people who are there to teach disabled young people to do a worthwhile job whereby they gain confidence in themselves and can learn a trade in the hospitality area. The café itself is very clean and tidy thanks to their work. The food is very good and reasonable priced. Children are welcome and high-chairs are provided. A cheerful and welcoming staff.

Popped into The Dome Cafe for lunch with my two young children (2 & 10months). Lovely little place. Helped to get a highchair. Offered colouring and paper along with a children’s menu. The children shared a kids meal (4 fish fingers, chips and beans) with a side of toast. Was offered cold plates for the kids so food could cool quickly when it arrived. The children were certainly happy as they ate everything in sight! Staff were kind and helpful. Good baby change facilities too. Will certainly be back!

Would have got 5* if they provided the ‘proper spring rolls’ like they used to full of been sprouts pork etc instead of the frozen nibble rubbish..food was a little cold and for £28 I’d expect 4 ribs not just 2..hopefully this feedback helps…and for the love of food get rid of those ridiculous frozen spring rolls and filo triangles…otherwise very tasty and would order again
