Husband and I stopped for coffee and cake. The selection of cakes was substantial and flavours that I had not seen before. We enjoyed our coffee and cakes, staff friendly.

Small cafe, don’t ware your time - took over 25 minutes to get a coffee and sandwich.. only 3 tables were taken.. none of the rest of tables were cleared or cleaned.. inadequate staff that don’t seem to care… such a shame as this could be a goldmine…

Nice staff, food average but very slow service, not overly busy at the time. Needs service to be organised better to get repeat business.

Stopped off twice and can’t fault either visit. Made to feel very welcome, food and drink first class. Best of all it is properly dog friendly. with dish of dog biscuits arriving with the food a lovely additional touch. Definitely recommend.

Gigi’s - number one for post run coffee, cake or bacon butties. I had them all and it set me up perfectly for the rest of the day.

Lovely little café which is handy for the beach. Friendly staff. I observed one of them being so patient with a customer who had questions about nuts in a cake. It's dog friendly as well, which is important for us. Nicely presented food that tasted great.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly service, excellent food (I had scrambled egg as well as porridge) and great coffee, all served and prepared lovingly. Wish I'd had time to try the delicious looking cakes, too! All in all would definitely recommend!

I came here for some breakfast while waiting for an MOT and I was very happy to receive friendly service, a delicious milkshake and a tasty bowl of porridge in a funky bowl! Great atmosphere and interior. Lovely to support a thriving local cafe! Proud this is a part of our high street. Keep doing what you’re doing Gigi cafe xxx

Customer service wasn't bad but waited almost half an hour to be served two extremely small panini's, which at a price point of around £7.50 were below our expectations, I admit I was expecting something more substantial. Both had what I could only describe as a ‘slither’ of contents. The coffee’s we ordered were nice however, and unlike the panini’s were served to us in a timely manner. This is such a shame because I have heard good things about this cafe, and was hoping to make it one of my local regulars. Due to this I am reluctant to return.

Totally accessible and fabulous staff! Excellent menu. Roberto (from Sicily) moved a table to the shade for a man in his wheelchair. 😊 Sophie (from Br was a wonderful waitress . She gave us our salad for free after its arrival was delayed. 🎉

Really lovely staff! Very cheerful man that served us made us smile (: Really good food, we had a bacon and Brie panini (no cranberry) and it was the best we ever had! I also had a coffee and walnut cake, which was excellent. As a barista maestro myself, the coffee was excellent! I’d highly recommended coming here if you’d like to have coffee from an independent shop. Thanks for a lovely time guys!

We stopped here for lunch as they advertise they are gluten free friendly. We ordered two salads, one to have gluten free bread. My husband's salad arrived but with normal bread (bowl of salad on a slate with the bread on the slate). We pointed this out and they removed the bread and bought out a plate with gluten free bread. However, the slate was left with crumbs of gluten containing bread. My salad arrived with normal bread. Unfortunately, after eating a little, I noticed mould on the bread. Again the bread was replaced but there was no apology, just a joke about our bread being a bit of a problem. No suggestion of any refund despite the potential harm.

Lovely cafe just a stones throw from the harbour within the main shopping area. The cakes were amazing - we tried the Rainbow cake, Raspberry Ripple cake and Ckements cake. Staff were friendly and cafe clean and comfortable. Look forward to visiting again.

Lovely place and dog friendly too, we took our poodle in with us......the cakes are so yummy. We had a courgette and lime cake, it was scrumptious. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. We must keep these independent shops going!

A couple of weeks ago we were on a coach tour which dropped us in Weymouth for the afternoon. We were looking for somewhere to have a light lunch and spotted Gigi. We had a really good experience. The staff were very friendly. We ordered ham and cheese toasties and decaf tea. It’s good to see more and more eating places serving decaf tea, our toasties were one of best we have ever tasted and beautifully presented. We would definitely highly recommend this establishment.

On my arrival to this coffee shop , I found the staff behind the counter rude and not very helpful as im vegan , the professionalism in them were bad. However I did stay and have something to eat with my children and wife and found the table hadn’t been cleaned “ hello “ covid 19. I shall be not visiting this premises again.

See that this place has struggled with some reviews on here . We just stopped for coffee and a quick bite , thought the place looked nice plus had outside seating . Menu is good for a quick bites place , toasties, panini sand breakfasts . Stood a while at the counter before being spoken too , two people going about their business which was not acknowledging customers ! . After a while I was spoken too and my order taken . I was advised the good May take a while due to previous orders . There were 4 other tables occupied so they want to think how they might cope when it did get busy . However all very polite . As promised it did take a while but when it did come the toastie was lovely , didn’t need the limp lettuce on the plate though . My partner had the torpedo which again was good as was the decent sized coffee. Overall , service interaction could be improved but food was very good

We went into the cafe only for a bean and cheese toasty each. Had to leave half of it because the bottom hidden from view was incinerated. I didn’t ask for £11.50 back but told them. What does it cost to replace a burnt piece of toast?? Certainly won’t be going there again

We really enjoyed having a drink at a table outside-front of Gigi's. My iced Mocha was very good. Cool little, high-street place!

After the Half Iron Man we were delighted to stumble upon Gigi’s. They made us feel very welcome, the service was super efficient (even though they were short staffed) and the food & coffee were fab. Would highly recommend.

Gorgeous Banana Loaf - how is this cafe not further up on here? We searched for places before we came to Weymouth and didn’t see this on here! So glad we came across this gem - lovely sausage sandwiches and the best Banana loaf ever!

We went in last week for brunch and had booked. The table was rather small for all 5 of us to sit comfortably as it was extremely hot, I’d ask waiter was if ok if we flowed over to table next to us - she said yes but was unable to clear it until she had served another customer which was fine although rather odd as she had just brought out our drinks and was going back that way. We had our brunch served few minutes later all looked fabulous unfortunately to my disappointment the hash royals I had did not have the smoked salmon which was main reason I’d chosen Everything else was cooked and tasted lovely but for nearly £10 you expect the full recipe I thought I’d just mention to waitress when she came to clear table from previous customers however she never did nor did anyone check if everything was ok. For spending around £80 for 2 children and adults on brunch I feel it didn’t quite reach the standard I expected unfortunately

Well we were booked for a surprise 60th Birthday meal on 22nd December 2023. Spoke directly with the restaurant to book & he phoned back to clarify . Just under before someone said they were shutting for Christmas & New Year - their last night was Monday 18th. I rang them constantly that evening with no answer, & I’ve rang them since. I have emailed them with out reply. I have never in my life had such poor customer service

Amazing food! We were in Weymouth for the Ironman and manage to get a walk in table late afternoon, really worth it. We got oysters (so fresh and with the vinegar and shallots). My partner took the starter of the day with octopus and then he had the fish and chips. I got the mussels and I’m still thinking about it. The only thing to keep in mind is the restaurant is small and the team as well so don’t be in a rush as there is some waiting time between the dishes.
