Compton Acres Cafe in Poole - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very busy cafe but you couldn't fault the staff who were friendly abd helpful. We had lunch inside and later a drink outside. Lovely setting and very peaceful. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Next to the compton acres gardens which we'll do next time.

Compton Acres Café is a beautiful spot for lunch, tea or cake! The staff are very welcoming and friendly which creates a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. The drinks, although arguably a little expensive, are good and served quickly. The Café has lots of seating options including an outdoor court with a fountain, a 'no-dog' zone with sofas and a 'dog-friendly' zone. The Café is decorated with flowers and there is a wide variety of cakes, scones, meals, drinks and treats on offer! I would highly reccomend visiting this café.

Ended up visiting here as a spur of the moment type thing but I was impressed !! The lovely cafe staff were so helpful in navigating around the place, there was service with a smile and a beautiful coffee and delicious cake for dessert. Lady with short hair served us who really knew the menu and by the time we had done ordering our coffees were piping hot and ready by a lady with red hair who was very smiley and kind (sorry i dont no their names) The menu has a lot of variety but we went for the quiche lorraine and croque Monsieur and wow delicious and all topped with beautiful scenery. I will return to see the lovely staff and eat the lovely food very soon … beautiful thanks so much xX

Visited in January 2023 and I was very impressed with the food, however this visit was disappointing! Homemade quiche of the day! Definitely not homemade! Salad bland and uninspiring! Wouldn’t rush back to eat there.

This is a surprisingly large cafe with a great range of breakfast options. We visited prior to a stroll through the brilliant gardens. My full English was very tasty. Two hash browns included! My wife enjoyed her freshly baked scone but wasn't as happy with her latte. Quite weak and with a lot of froth. Worth a visit, though.

A very disappointing lunch. I have been here before and always enjoyed the food however was disappointed this time, chips very greasy and peas quite dry, there was a large piece of fish but that was all. Felt the choice of toasted sandwiches could have been bigger also very noisy.

Five of us visited the Compton acres cafe for afternoon tea, we were celebrating my father’s 94th birthday. The afternoon tea, was excellent as was the service and good value for money too. A very pleasant afternoon & dad enjoyed it too, definitely recommend

Afternoon tea for all the family in the Italian Villa, lovely venue and service, the choice of sandwiches and the cakes were excellent

Really good oatcake breakfast served freshly cooked. Bacon particularly good. Surroundings very pleasant. Friendly staff. Will return

The breakfasts at this cafe are really good, for taste and value - we tried it on the first full day of a mini break and went back every day foe our breakfast - three visits and something different each time. Great place - lovely atmosphere and very nice people serving. I guess the lunches/dinners would be just as good. Very satisfying.

We had a set Afternoon Tea for 17 people and it was fabulous. Cakes, scones and sandwiches were all homemade and delicious Vegetarians and gluten free all catered for beautifully. Customer Service was excellent, both in the planning and on the actual day. Jade, the manager, was really helpful and other staff were really friendly and made us all very welcome.

Decided to have a coffee before we toured the gardens and later have lunch. Asked for two skinny cappuccino’s and received two tasteless full fat milk cappuccino s. I didn’t drink mine as full fat milk gives me problems. If they didn’t have skimmed milk they should have told us. Did they think we wouldn’t notice? Consequently after the gardens we didn’t trust them to give us what we asked for for lunch! Went elsewhere. Also toilets were not up to standard.

We arrived shortly after opening at 9am for breakfast on a beautiful morning. The cafe was peaceful and quiet because of the time which gave our dog plenty of room to lay down and not be in the way of others. We both chose the Compton Acres breakfast which was delicious. The poached eggs were perfect and our request for one of the bacon portions to be crispy was sorted without any problems. The dog even enjoyed his sausage!

We popped into the cafe after walking around the plant centre and the shops. We bought what we came in for and went to have a cup of tea as we were very hot and needed refreshments. It was just pass four pm and we were told they could not serve us as hot drinks and snacks were not available as they were getting ready for the pizzeria to open at 5pm.We could have a cold drink or an ice cream. We ended up having an ice cream tub, not really what we wanted but needed something. What a shame we have to go without so they can open their evening eaterie. We will remember this in future.

I met with a friend ,we chose smoked salmon sandwiches and cake. Unfortunately the sandwiches were inedible, the bread was not fresh ,the tiny portion of salmon was brown .We we were given a replacement but this was no better .The cake portions also appear to be getting smaller! We are local residents - disappointing.

Just came back from afternoon tea with my daughter. Cream tea was superb. 3 types of finger sandwiches each, 3 types of scone each, plenty of cream and jam. 2 cakes each. We had a pot of tea, and a free 2nd pot. The cafe was very busy and the surroundings beautiful, but what really made it was the lovely staff. Spoke to about four staff member during the visit, all helpful but Heidi was particularly chatty and made the day for us. All this for £28 for both of us.

Ordered a full English with fried egg and my wife ordered poached eggs on toast we both received hard boiled poached eggs very disappointed as last year we visited twice and had fantastic breakfasts so much so it was our first choice on our return this year.

My mother and I fancied a treat of going out for afternoon tea together. However my mother is lactose intolerant and most place, we discovered, do not cater for lactose free afternoon tea. However, Compton Acres cafe did and wow what a sumptuous feast of a tea they provided. The food was faultless, each item delicious and the perfect amount to. The service was some of the nicest, kindest service we have experienced. Each member of staff was so lovely and went out of their way at times to make it a very special memorable afternoon out. Thank you Compton Acres cafe for the perfect afternoon tea. Everything we wanted and more.

We visited the gardens first and then had an early afternoon snack afterwards. On the late March Monday when we visited, the cafe was quite busy and no doubt it gets packed in the summer months (although staff were quick clearing tables). The menu offers a variety of hot and cold food options plus cakes and scones etc (see my pics for info) - also a £15 2 course lunch offering (see my pic for detail). There’s a large car park and a gift shop which you can access either from the gardens or cafe area without having to visit the gardens.

Not too crowded for a Saturday. Perhaps the gardens would look a lot nicer in a few months time, however I was last here over 40 years ago. Well worth a visit. The Japanese garden authentic and beautiful. Lots of big Koi in the pond. The Bamboo was clean and impressive. The Japanese Laurel with their red berries added a perfect balance of colour and I only wished there was more. All that green and red echoes of Christmas. No doubt the Camellias would soon show their true colours. The Italian garden with its topiary was cool and light. The Heather garden on a light floor was wonderful. I only wished the place was bigger and had another specialist garden. The cafe was relaxing. The latte smooth. A nice day out. Fidelscastrol.

Rather disappointing, we went with a small group, dark area,all the tables were reserved so had to split between 2 tables, very cramped area when busy, older waitress wasn’t very welcoming and rather rude. 3 items on our order was missed off out tray so had to keep going back up to the desk to collect. Server couldn’t have cared less.One cake was served on a saucer instead of a plate.not what you expect when paying £5 for a small square of cake and £6 a sandwich. Food very overpriced although tasted nice. Probably wouldn’t go back to be honest.service was dire.

Not the cheapest place, but 2 of us ordered from the 2 courses for £15 and we thought it was excellent value. The third ordered fish and chips, which was hot and well cooked and the last person had the Avocado, tomato and mozzarella salad. Coffees were hot and delicious. Our two chosen deserts were Tiramisu (great) and treacle tart (perfect). So the food was good, but the delightful staff made it brilliant. Beautiful smiles all round combined with excellent service where nothing was too much trouble made us very happy. One of the party has special needs and is very sensitive, but they made the atmosphere lovely. We were also able to take home the portion of her meal she couldn't manage at the time and these small touches are very much appreciated. Thank you all. We will return soon.

One single scone . I ordered earl gray tea but got regular tea. Mostly I hated the way I was barked at when i asked for a cream tea and told each item.was priced individually and "we don't do cream tea" the tray was too small for two cake plates a tea and a coffee. No table service.. the staff looked as unhappy and grumpy as the service they provided . Will not be going back any time soon. It was also very expensive compared to other local cream tea venues.

Whilst looking for a present for my Mother in Law for her 90th Birthday I luckily came across the Afternoon Tea in the Italian Villa so i booked it. It was brilliant. The food was exceptional, the sandwiches were the freshest we had ever had with a tea. The staff were so welcoming and accommodating . All of us thoroughly enjoyed it.

We found the food somewhat expensive and the staff need some serious training in customer service, I don't think we will return in a hurry. Plus point is that is dog friendly.

Lovely setting, tasty food but very expensive for a lunch. We went into Compton Acres, which we really enjoyed, and it was good value. We would return in the summer months.

This pizza place is fantastic. Best pizzas ever and the setting in the courtyard is amazing. Recommended a visit.

We visited here after a walk round the gardens. Our first impression was that it took too long to clear the tables to allow visitors to sit down - priorities didn't quite seem right. Seating inside, and outside in the attractive open courtyard or an...

We had a light snack here after a walk around the gardens. It was self service and fairly chaotic but the tea and cake was very nice! I would not go out of my way to eat here but it was handy under the circumstances.

Been coming to CA for years but today made to feel like a liar when I said that I hadn’t been given the right number of drinks, that I had paid for. Terrible customer service. Rather than accepting what I was saying, the service woman...

Visited on 26th October at 3.15pm. As soon as we sat down staff started stacking chairs at the surrounding tables. Told we shut at 3.30pm but allowed to purchase cake and hot drinks. At 3,30pm shut down started with a vengeance two staff members appeared...

Had a nice coffee and cake after visiting the garden. I would say at £8.50 entrance the garden isn't good value though.

Lots of tempting dishes on the menu here. We settled for the salt beef, mustard & gherkin bagel with salad. It was delicious and filling but we managed to make room for the cake of the day which had an unusual combination of banana and...

Such delicious food and attentive staff. Great place for lunch. Reasonably priced. Great to visit after walking around the gardens.

Had an excellent light lunch after visiting the gardens. Sat on the terrace on a wonderfully sunny day. Really enjoyed

A brief stop before a walk around the gardens, then lunch afterwards. Service rather slow at the counter, Food & Beverages Good.

Quite a long wait for food including a long queue to place order. Food was very good when it arrived as was the walk around the gardens and the garden centre.

This is a very busy cafe, with home cooked quality food. Coffee, afternoon tea, cakes, pastries snacks and meals including Sunday lunch. Quality is never compromised.

Before lockdown very good good value for the money after lockdown disappointing overpriced , two cooked breakfasts £30 coffee and toast not included anymore felt ripped off specially as the quality wasn’t what it used to be real shame used to be worth the drive around thirty minutes not any more better breakfasts around for half the money I’ll say it again such a shame won’t bother again

This used to be our favourite place to come for breakfast but what a disappointment. The vegetarian breakfast has been swapped for a vegan one - no problem with that but the vegan sausages were tasteless and very hard. There are some fantastic vegan sausages on the market so there’s no excuse for serving the ones they now are. The standard breakfast unfortunately was also not as good. The toast and coffee is no longer included. Two breakfasts cost £30, which we would have absolutely no problem with spending on a breakfast if the quality was good but if I’m honest, it wasn’t even worth half that amount. A real shame but we won’t be going back.

I live locally and have been a regular customer to Compton acres for a number of years. My friend and I arrived for lunch our first visit since lockdown was lifted, on Friday 22nd July 2020. We joined the queue at 13.45pm with only 2 people waiting in front of us. When an assistant shouted over the counter waving her hands like she was 'shooing us like flies' to tell us the kitchen is closed for lunch. There was no apology or notice before entering the premises that the kitchen would be closing at 2pm. The assistant was very unhelpful and rude to everyone who had been standing in the queue for at least 10 minutes or more, patiently waiting to be served.You would think after being closed for so long during lockdown that they would want your business, we were left very disappointed in there attitude, and won't be returning. An apology would of been appreciated, but there wasn't one.

A quick lunch here is a pleasure and their home made sandwiches are a joy. They pride themselves on their coffees which are also very good. The parking can sometimes be a squeeze but the shop and garden centre add an extra dimension of interest. Dog and wheelchair friendly.

This afternoon tea was booked as a special occasion for a 60th birthday. The staff were lovely and they did bring a brownie out with a candle in it for the birthday girl. At £15.99 per head (inc. children) we thought it would be ideal. Unfortunately, despite the lovely setting, the food was disappointing and beige. The ration of the food was wrong and there were too many scones to sandwiches, which left it feeling like the cake stands had been filled with the cheapest option. There was also only one drink included, which meant it got expensive. I wouldn’t book this again when there are better options elsewhere locally. Such a shame.

We booked in advanced as we were a large birthday party, including 2 vegans and a vegetarian, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our whole party enjoyed the afternoon tea of sandwiches, scones and cakes. The sandwiches were fresh and tasty, the scones everyone agreed were amazing, especially the cheese ones with the chive butter, all very fresh and warm. The cakes were a nice selection. We struggled to eat it all but were provided with cake boxes to take the left overs with us. Although the drink accompanying it was tea, the staff were happy to provide alternative drinks. We will definitely return and recommend highly. An 85th birthday celebration to remember. Thank you

Been several times and I think the offering is improving. Typical place for canford cliffs and the ladies who lunch but on a plus side parts of the cafe is dog friendly. The shop next door is worth a visit as well.

The staff could not be more friendlier, nothing was too much trouble, a lovely breakfast, absolutely faultless.

Came here for lunch as a large group and we all had a nice meal. The food was nice quality. We then went and walked around the gardens which are stunning.

He and me visited Compton Acres for the first time today. Before setting off around the gardens, we stopped at the cafe for a coffee. "Two flat whites please""It's our strongest coffee with 2 shots, is that okay?" "Absolutely!" And it was. Totally alright! In fact, Compton Acres cafe, you have totally nailed it.Highly recommended.

We went to the Compton Acres Cafe yesterday the one in the forecourt. Quite a nice menu at fairly reasonable prices. We chose the hot roast pork sandwich with stuffing and apple sauce. When it came we were a little taken aback. The pork in the sandwich (2 slices) were as thick as door steps and to pick up and eat as you would a sandwich was impossible. The whole thing was inelegant and far too much. Plus there was salad and chips. Sadly we didn't enjoy. A nice bap with pulled pork apple sauce and stuffing would have been perfect and so much easier to eat. Apologies for all the bread left on our plates.Service could not fault. Lovely and clean and tables cleared very promptly.

I visited on a rainy afternoon and, although I really enjoyed the gardens. I was quite relieved to escape the rain!Several other people were also escaping the rain but the queue moved quickly and there was plenty of seating - my table overlooked the terrace. My carrot cake was moist and delicious and my Earl Grey tea was good quality. staff were all pleasant and I enjoyed my visit.

Breakfast was excellent, one large, one small, perfectly cooked, free tea or coffee with each, excellent start to our day!

Handy place to eat if visiting Compton Acres. You don't have to pay to get into the Garden if you only want to eat

One of many visits we cannot fault the food and service. Inside or out it is a pleasure to have a meal here

First time yesterday 7 September 2019. Loved the whole ambience of it. Didn't go in the gardens but just went for lunch. Lovely menu and when the sandwich arrived (we shared) it was plenty for us and it came with chips and a really nice salad. All beautifully presented too. Lovely surroundings. Lots to look at too. Comfortable seating and nice and clean.

I called ahead and booked two vegan afternoon teas for my friend’s birthday and it was great. I’m not a vegan myself but the food was delicious. Tasty sandwiches, the pesto one was amazing and the scones and cakes were lovely too. We also had berries with a coulis and coconut cream, delicious. Polite friendly staff and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

After calling ahead to check what time the kitchen finished serving breakfast, we arrived 2 minutes after the cut off time. We were refused breakfast so I asked to speak to the manager. She arrived and was so incredibly rude! There was no compromise, she said that they wouldn't serve us breakfast and was so unhelpful. After a few minutes I decided to walk away from there was no point talking to her. My children spoke to her & again got nowhere. She actually pointed towards me and referred to me as 'she!' My children did get annoyed and I told them we were leaving (one is a hospitality manager and was appalled by her behaviour).

We like this informal cafe for a quick bite to eat or afternoon tea in a relaxed atmosphere with friendly service.

We visited here for a spot of lunch on a Sunday. The food was very nice, with plenty to choose from on the menu. However what stood out most of all was the high quality of service from the staff. They were all friendly, competent and professional and I was very impressed. We're already planning out next visit!

Seven of us met at the Compton Acres Cafe for lunch during May half-term, four adults and three teenage girls. The cafe was very busy, so we had to wait a little while to order at the counter, but the staff were very efficient and when the food did arrive it was superb. The girls all had ham, egg and chips; adult meals included fish and chips, chicken panini, and quiche lorraine. Everyone declared that their meals were delicious. The huge portions of fish were really succulent, and the chips were perfectly cooked. An excellent choice for lunch!

Wonderful Sunday lunch in a beautiful location. Great service and lovely staff. Well worth considering a visit to the gardens after lunch.

We enjoyed a breakfast outside in the sunshine over Easter. Service was friendly and fast. Husband enjoyed his toast. I always order the eggs royale as it’s usually wonderful... this time the poached eggs were hard boiled. I should have taken it back, but they were busy and it was more than eatable, due to the generous amount of salmon and hollandaise sauce.

We dined here yesterday after a detour to visit their garden centre (the quality of their plants is very good), we are so glad we did. Lunch consisted off the most beautiful lamb salad served with peas, feta and various herbs, my only criticism is that it lacked a bit off crunch, perhaps the addition off pomegranate seeds or something similar would have rectified that. We followed this up with some pistachio and raspberry tart, truly divine, light crisp and sweet shortcrust pastry filled to the brim with with pistachio paste with raspberries, it was sensational. Probably one of the best desserts i have ever tasted. Our meal was finished off with a very good Americano and a tea. All this was consumed in a beautiful setting with attentive friendly staff. Well done to everyone concerned.

We went for lunch on Easter Sunday and the food was quite good but not great.

The gardens at Compton Acres are lovely, especially in spring. And the cafe a suitable reward at the end. From hearty snacks to full meals, and tea and cake too. Smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwich was available gluten free, and the charred asparagus was excellent. When the weather permits, outside seating in the sunny courtyard is a treat. Service patchy, but just chill with your glass of rose...

Good tea & coffees here, all g with scone & cake, gluten free options too. All clean at the tables, staff polite & helpful ,sat outside as still warm enough! Plenty of seating and it was getting busy as we left. Reasonably priced too.

Nice snacks, cakes and coffee, informal seating and a good ambience. An ideal spot to meet or relax. Plus the bonus of the garden shop next door.

Always enjoy delicious freshly made on site scones. They also made a first rate cappucino! I have ordered scones to go besides enjoying them in the restaurant.We have also had tasty sandwiches. They also have a lovely little gift shop.

Excellent food and very generous portions. Staff very efficient and friendly. Often come here with my Mum for lunch or tea - cakes are homemade and delicious and coffee good; hot meals are usually really good with daily specials. So pleased it's close by to where we live - and easy parking and access for those with mobility problems.

exceptional food with great service even though if was busy. Wish we lived closer would go there fore lunch every day.

We popped in for breakfast. Hubby enjoyed his toast, but my eggs florentine were the star of the show. Perfectly cooked and really yummy. Followed by a meander around the shop. A super morning. Very busy even for a Saturday in January.

Wonderful place to visit, food top quality and service with a smile.

My dad booked a lunch for his literary group of ten at the Compton Acres café. Viv, head Chef, spent time discussing what would work for the group and working out a bespoke package for them. On the day the food was brilliant and plentiful served at a lovely table in a prime position that had been reserved for them. The service, led by Beth, was professional and perfect for such an event. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for making my dad's special event so very special.

I visited with my Mum, sister, Nan and Auntie as a belated Birthday present for my Mum for an afternoon tea. I had called ahead to book as I requested the vegan afternoon tea for myself which has a minimum of 2 people and my sister, although not vegan herself, shared with me. I was very impressed with the selection of sandwiches and cakes. A lot of thought had gone into the flavours and they definitely were more creative than the usual hummus and falafel offerings at other places. My sister also thoroughly enjoyed it and we were both very impressed with the scones. There was so much cake, we had to take a doggy bag home! Everyone else also enjoyed their standard afternoon tea and there was unlimited tea supplied throughout. Couldn't fault it. Thank you Compton Acres Cafe for offering a vegan option and a really good value, tasty one at that! :)

We are locals who use the cafe a lot but....no crumpets,no muffins,no tea cakes...and if there at 320 no toast as kitchen closes at 330..... it is winter ,colder darker days so would like something a little nicer than a slice of cold cake!!!!!....so we are going to go somewhere that can offer this type of foods....shame because everything else is fine .....

Excellent, light and fluffy scones, delicious jam and cream, well presented and good service, a real treat

The café has changed so much and gone so upmarket to when it was a cute rustic café a few years back. Changed for the better but has got so busy even off season . We found the parking a bit tight as we have a big car Jaguar XF the parking was very tight and rammed. However the café was a delight. We ordered some tea and Blueberry scones with jam. Best Scones ever absolutely delicious and a beautiful courtyard with delightful full hanging baskets and flower urns with amazing colours. We had a fabulous tea and scones outside .

Helpful staff, searing inside or in courtyard. Good food and service, clean and well organised. Happy to recommend.

We were visiting Compton Acres as a birthday surprise with Afternoon Tea. Two of the guests need to have a Gluten Free Tea. We were absolutely delighted with the whole thing. It was all delicious and at the end we were given little boxes to take away the items we did not eat...as there was plenty to eat. The Cafe is lovely and you can eat indoors or outside and it is situated by a very nice gift shop. Then a lovely stroll through the gardens.

The cafe within Compton Acres offers a good range of drinks, cakes and pastries, self service, outdoor/indoor seating available.

We decided to eat here before visiting the gardens and we enjoyed our Crayfish sandwiches. They were served quickly with a lovely salad and the staff were efficient and polite too. A brilliant start to our visit before looking around the beautiful Compton Acres.

Excellent lunch freshly cooked to order so did not mind the wait. Extensive menu rather pricey but the quality of the food produced was excellent.

Had a lovely cream tea here, the freshes blueberry scone and blackcurrant jam with clotted cream, and a pot of 2 cups of tea

Very exopensice for very average snacks, slow seervice from snobby staff, terribly stuffy and hot, most uncomfortable experience.

As a guest at a wedding with a 4 year old grandson, we did have to go exploring about Compton acres, and when a 4 year old sees choc brownies....well...he has to have one.
