What a gem beautifully cooked breakfast . Great service friendly staff. It was lovely to find a traditional cafe. Nothing was too much effort . Couldn’t take a photo of the food as we had finished it all. Bacon was delicious. A complicated order and all came perfectly delivered. Very good value for money.

My husband and I were visiting the area on Sunday, Googled where to have a English breakfast and this gem came up! We arrived at 11am, the cafe was busy. When we saw the Sunday lunches coming out, we had to try one. We both had the lamb and all the trimmings. It was all fresh ingredients and the best Sunday roast we had in a long time! We cannot wait to return when we visit Boscombe again.

I had an incredible experience at the English Rose Cafe! The English breakfast was absolutely amazing, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The staff were exceptionally kind and bright, adding a wonderful touch to the overall atmosphere. I also tried the vegetarian breakfast, and it was a fantastic substitute, offering a delicious and satisfying meal for vegetarians. The combination of great food, friendly staff, and a cheerful atmosphere makes this cafe a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Superb Roast Lamb lunch, beautifully cooked vegetables and a pudding to die for apple and fresh raspberry crumble with the smoothest of hot custard, the service was excellent and friendly. I will certainly return as soon as possible. Two courses and a cappuccino for £ 15. DELICIOUS 😋

From the outside it looks a bit run down and a strong breeze may knock it over. However as I was always taught never judge a book by it's cover. For this cafe had superb Service The food was of good quality. Including the sausage. Which I always think makes a big difference. So it was excellent value for money. Will definitely be going back.

I have been before and enjoyed, thoroughly enjoyed their Full English Breakfast. The fried bread is amazing and everything is cooked beautifully. I've promised myself many times that I would try the roast dinner. Today, I did. The roast pork with all the (5 fresh) vegetables and super crispy roast potatoes, fluffy on the inside, was sooooo delicious. I had a portion of wonderfully cheesy (homemade, as is all if it) cauliflower cheese (Just £1 a portion. What a bargain and worth much more). This made it even better. Now I'm torn between roast dinners and their breakfasts. Thank you Pauline (the amazing chef), I'll be back!

Some of the cakes were too sweet, the cook is a little heavy-handed with sugar. The price of the full afternoon tea is a bit steep, and it's actually more advantageous to order each item separately. You'd expect a discount when taking a full menu, not the opposite.

We visited the English Rose yesterday for Sunday lunch, it was great value for money. There were 6 of use that had lunch, you can choose from a great selection of meats in 3 sizes, small, medium and large. I had a large lamb, there was lots of roasted potatoes, 5 different vegetables and a great portion of lamb. I added yorkshire puddings to my lunch for an extra charge but well worth the price. After the lunch I had apple and raspberry crumble with ice cream which was delicious, you could have custard if you want it. Was great value, friendly service and food was excellent. Well worth a visit.

The English Rose captures the essence of a traditional English cafe (in this instance definitely pronounced 'kaf') - the decor, atmosphere, clientele, menu and service down to every detail. It feels like stepping into another world if you are not from England or frequent modern cafes inspired by TV chefs serving smashed avocado and crumbled feta on artisan seeded sourdough. Situated on a very busy road in the heart of Boscombe, I've travelled past it countless times over the past few years wondering what it's like inside. Today I gave it a chance and wasn't disappointed trying a ham and cheese omelette served with chips and peas - a bargain at £6.50! Fluffy, gooey and delicious with crispy, hot chips. Best of all is the people watching - I could of easily stayed for hours. Make sure you visit.

I was given a recommendation to this place by a friend. I can say that it exceeded his praises. Although I arrived at a busy time of day the lovely lady serving greeted me with a smile and took my order . The roast beef arrived in short order and I can honestly say it was the best tssting roasts I have had in Bournemouth. The portions were fair for the price and will return and I will bring others.

Eat here if you fancy eating off old greasy plates and using dirty cutlery. Found a small piece of bacon underneath a pile of baked beans in my “veggie breakfast.” Disgusting. Very well hidden.

The english rose is my favourite cafe in Boscombe. The food is always excellent and very tasty, the staff are lovely who are always very welcoming and friendly. Breakfasts and roasts are amazing! So if you want to support a family run, local business and your looking for somewhere that is serving great quality food at fair prices then pop along to the English Rose opposite the con club and boscombe bus station.

I loved this little cafe. It is a good old fashioned English cafe and offers the kind of roadside fare you would expect from that type of establishment. However, the quality and quantity of the food is great and is improved equally by the friendliest of service. What also gives credit to the cafe is the fact that it is used by the local residents..... I don't think you can get a better credit than that!
