Cracking cycling cafe, but don't worry if thats not your bag, it is a comfortable cafe for all. Three years on, still the best mocha around. Nice buzzy vibe and very welcoming to cyclists and non cyclists alike.

We waited nearly an hour for a breakfast and no one apologised, even when we asked for food. The portion was horrendous, so small for the price and the food was terrible. Soggy spinach, cold beans, cheap bread. Honestly don’t understand the good reviews, such a waste of nearly £30 and we only had two breakfasts.

I went to the Velo for breakfast a few months ago and it was amazing and the service was great even though it was very busy. However went on there today with a friend for breakfast and it was very disappointing to say the least. I had a Veggie breakfast. The rosti was tiny and was so rubbery that I couldn't even put my knife into it. I took it back and what came again obviously hadnt been fried but microwaved so was not eaten. So different from before and for £12 I'd be reluntant to go again and that's a shame.

We were staying in an uncatered hotel nearby and needed a vegan breakfast so headed here. We ate well and were delighted to be somewhere that mainstreams a vegan diet. We were impressed by the bike room concept (clearly much appreciated by the many cyclists in the café) and admired the several very well-behaved dogs. Altogether a good vibe.

I ordered a panni and waited patiently for about half an hour, I had an appointment in town that I had to get to so I went to the servery to ask that my lunch was put to one side for a little while. As soon as I started asking the owner I was greeted with a hurl of abuse including the f word. I know it's hot but don't take it out on paying customers! I took a refund and will not go back! Shocking!

Just off the high street in Ringwood, this cafe is a wonderful experience for those looking for a great lunch or breakfast. In addition to the breakfast standards, they offer healthy options and additions including avo, mushrooms and poached eggs. For those needing the carbs, the meals are sumptuous and there are tasty cakes available. Popular with the cycling community, the restaurant is run by the owners and you are welcomed from the moment you walk in. Prices are very reasonable and the coffee is great.

Caught the kitchen 1 minute before closing; but they very obligingly cooked me a Full Café Velo (gluten-free breakfast) - at 2pm! Not a morning man, but their non-fatty fayre crammed with noshy flavours will have me begging for more and repeated visits! Great to have a pot of loose-leaf Dorset Tea, too!

Our best find in Ringwood, regularly cycle over for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Food is good quality, service is great and prices aren't too bad either. Although it can get busy, there are always seats available, either inside or out. It's good to see an independent business so we'll supported. And being able to leave our bikes inside is an added bonus.

We were staying nearby for the weekend and decided to drive into Ringwood for brunch with our 6 month old staffy puppy. We’d previously researched dog friendly cafes and this one got good reviews. Ringwood must be one of the most attractive town centre I’ve been to in a long time, it feels very cosy and homely. We found the cafe and an outside table no problem, service was excellent as was the food. Several visitors and staff made a fuss of the pup (it’s making her big headed!) and one of the serving staff asked if she could say hello and give her a treat which made Mabel super happy! The owner/manager very kindly asked us to return again as his staff loved our puppy which was a lovely touch. Everyone was very friendly, the food was fresh, nicely presented and quickly served. Lovely experience all round.

The directions we got to clifftops to see the display were great! Thank you very much!

The last two years have involved us shielding due to being extremely vulnerable, which has meant rare outings for my wife and myself. On the rare occasions we go out, we have opted for Cafe Velo Date Morning (our name), enjoying a delicious fresh ingredients gorgeous breakfast. The food is great, staff are so friendly (a bit like the staff many of us enjoyed at our local pub for years) they have redesigned the layout making it really social distance friendly, with a closed off area for kids. We are spoilt in Ringwood with so many different eateries, but Cafe Velo is top notch. Tony/Trish
