Josie's in Winchester

Super,Thank you Your all awesome, we loved our service. And your food. A delight way too start your day. We both had eggs on toast .perfect!..)

Visited the Chandler's Ford branch. The coffee tasted nice but barely warm and they can’t really cater for a gluten free diet so very little food choice. The GF bread was horrible. Ended up with just mushrooms and two poached eggs as the sausages and chorizo aren’t GF (why when there are so many delicious ones available without gluten???). Waited 10 mins for the coffee and then 40 mins for the food. My first visit and my last tbh. Really don’t know what the hype is about!

We'd heard good things about Josie's so popped in last week for a drink and a shared cake. My daughter and I both had milkshakes which were extremely nice and we all shared a cake which we enjoyed. We thought we'd try lunch there today and the food was superb. I had Josie's club sandwich, slightly pricey at £9.50 but when it arrived and I tasted it it seemed a bargain. I don't say this lightly but this may be the best sandwich I have EVER eaten, perfectly cooked bacon, tender chicken with a lovely crispy coating, garlic aoili and tomato chutney which both worked perfectly together and all on delicious sourdough bread. My wife and daughter both liked their sandwiches (though not *quite* as much as me!). We tried smoothies this time which were good. We all shared a two pancake portion of Biscoff pancakes which turned out to be huge, and we ended up bringing some home (staff were very helpful when people wanted to take food or drinks home and had plenty of containers). Pancakes were lovely and very filling. It isn't cheap but you do get what you pay for and everything we've tried has been excellent quality.

New Josies Chandlers Ford is,by a country mile,the best coffee shop in the area. Food amazing and generous portions. Josie herself always free to chat to customers. Be good when one can pay at the table but understand this is coming. Some tables perhaps a little close to allow privacy but am nit picking! Will continue to support and recommend highly. David.

I came here this morning with my husband and daughter.They both had pancakes with bacon and I had a small breakfast. The only thing that was hot was the toast. I was not impressed as I has waited all morning to eat. I asked the girl to take the breakfast off the bill which she did. She apologised and was very polite about it. We normally go to Winchester and never have any problems.

Been going to Josies regularly every week since it opened and it was always really good but recently the service has really deteriorated. Have to wait ages to be served and if you are simply popping in for just a coffee and a chat with a friend the waitress staff have regularly made us feel uncomfortable for just having coffees!. Sometimes the coffees are just luke warm! Cafe 60 down the high street is so welcoming and they are more than happy for you to just have a cup of coffee. Our younger people used to go regularly to Josies for food but have also said it isn't as good as it used to be .

Wonderful lunch at Josie’s in Bishop’s Waltham today. The food was delicious, we each had the chicken wrap. The coffees were spot on, too. Even though it was busy, the staff were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. They were all so friendly and attentive and we didn’t have to wait long for anything. Also, the seat by the window is great for watching the world go by! We had a lovely time - thank you.

LOVE Josie's! Perfect for meeting friends (what I mostly use it for), families or couples. Great menu and drinks, friendly atmosphere and nothing is too much trouble.

Just waited 30mins on table 24 for service to take my order and no one could. E bothered yo busy chatting total disgrace I go to bistro 60 great service and food in 5 mins I know were I'm better served now

It can be a long wait to get seated but if you want to sit outside it’s a free for all which annoyingly they don’t tell you we waited over the 26 minutes for a table but a family came along sat outside and was served right away

we try to eat here every time we visit the area, we try to arrange hotels so that we are local to eat, the breakfasts are amazing. i always have the mushrooms on toast with poached eggs then follow with one pancake with maple & bacon... heaven their coffee is delicious.. definitely a must to visit - we MUST try some of the other locations

Lovely coffee amazing milkshake and best ever pancakes. Great service from staff especially Jess and poops who looked after us so well

Really high quality breakfast and the coffee was also really good. Highly recommend the eggs benedict and a flat white.

Ordered tots and a toasted sandwich, coffee and apple juice. Ordered 10.08 collection 10.28 Arrived to collect 10.30 Waited till 10.50 Thankfully we opened the boxes in the car, before leaving. Food was sweaty in the boxes and cold. Had clearly been sat in the boxes for some time. After returning to the restaurant to complain, we where offered a refund. Not that helpful when your hungry and now been waiting for your food. After explaining we want the food, they agreed to re cook our food. We then had to wait in the car again as there where no tables. Finally we got our food and they refunded our order. The end result was ok, but the service to get to that point was very poor. It’s a shame as the food is good. But it puts us off ordered for the future.

Great tasting coffee, always try and pop in for a quick takeout when we are passing. I can recommend the breakfasts too! So pleased they are now open after lockdown, definitely missed their blend of coffee!

I have been coming to Josies Bishops Waltham for years, couldn't fault it. Went down for my friends birthday breakfast today. The food is always warm and presented beautifully. The service was great, everyone was so friendly and a really great atmosphere. The location is great and only a 1 minute walk from the car park. the pancakes are a must!!

Oh...my...days... Words fail me for just how good that breakfast was 💙🤤 the pancakes are out of this world and I’m happily sat in a food coma now. Wow

Came here for brunch on a Friday in December. No bookings taken, so walk in and wait for a free table. Greeted at the door by staff. COVID compliant, with face masks, hand sanitiser and trace + trace QR code.The interior of the cafe is nice and modern, but also quite cosy and really well done. Definitely feels like an upmarket and classy cafe.The young staff were wonderful. Have a great service. Polite, friendly and attentive when required.The food was really really good. They had a festive menu, to which I chose the pigs in blankets benedict. 2 x muffins, 4 x pigs in blankets, 2 x poached eggs, with hollandaise sauce, cranberry sauce and stuffing. I wasn’t sure about the combination, but it was one of the best eggs benedict’s I’ve had. Perfectly cooked eggs! If you’ve got time to have this before the festive menu goes away until next xmas, try it! Wife had pancakes, with fruit, syrup and bacon. Does come with ice cream too and can choose 1,2 or 3 pancakes. She highly rated her brunch and was very complimentary of it. Looking at the menu, it looks like any other regular cafe, but honestly the food was so tasty and done so well. No surprise they had a queue forming outside as we left. Well done we’ll be back

Conocí a un amigo para desayunar hoy en Rosies y no se puede culpar. Los huevos revueltos con tostadas de masa madre eran fantásticos. A pesar de ser simples, los buenos huevos revueltos son un arte y los chefs de Rosie's lo tienen en cuenta.¡Solo necesito encontrar una excusa para volver con mi esposo!

Great food outstanding service by Liam Can’t wait to come back You know when everything tastes amazing on your plate this is what this place achieves every time we visit!!

Durante los últimos meses, cuando los cafés y restaurantes solo podían vender comida para llevar, usé Josie muchas veces y el servicio y la comida han sido excelentes.Hoy me llevé a un amigo. Habíamos pedido en línea y llegamos a tiempo para la recogida. No había cola, pero varios miembros del personal nos ignoraron por completo. Finalmente logré llamar y obtener una respuesta de una mesera que recogió nuestro pedido. Notamos una mesa vacía adentro y preguntamos si podíamos sentarnos en lugar de llevar. Se fue a averiguar si podíamos y regresó para decir que sí. Luego tuve que pedirle servilletas a una mesera que dijo que las traería, pero nunca lo hice, así que tuve que preguntarle a otra mesera. Después de terminar, dijimos gracias y adiós y ni un solo miembro del personal nos reconoció. Todos parecían miserables y eran muy antipáticos. Vamos chicos, pueden hacerlo mejor que esto. El servicio solía ser alegre y amigable. Hoy fue horrible. Las tostadas estaban deliciosas.

He estado aquí varias veces a lo largo de los años, algunas experiencias buenas y otras no tan buenas.Hoy será mi última visita. Fui allí por un simple sándwich para llevar.Al llegar a la puerta de entrada coloquémi pedido con uno de los 6/8 miembros del personal que atendían a 6/8 clientes, 4 afuera y 4 adentro, (creo que un poco más de personal, por cierto, no pueden equivocarse en mi pedido).Pedí una salchicha y huevo tostadosándwich en blanco y un café con leche helado, mientras el camarero caminaba los tres pasos de regreso a la caja, se volvió y me preguntó el pedido nuevamente, lo cual confirmé por segunda vezDe acuerdo señor, su pedido estará listo en 20 minutos, no hay problema, puedo ver que está realmente ocupado.Después de unos 15 minutos, mi sándwich estaba listo, ¿qué pasa con mi café con leche? Le pregunté, lo siento señor, se lo traeré. Una mesera pone la leche en la taza y el mesero mezcla el azúcar y el agua por lo que parece una eternidad, una vez que se completa el café con leche, el mesero coloca la pajita con los dedos en la parte superior de la pajita donde voy a poner mi labios? Puse la pajita boca abajo una vez que entré en mi vehículo.Está bien, pasando al sándwich, oh pan integral y no tostado, la salchicha estaba apenas cocida, de color rosado, después de un bocado prácticamente se desmoronó y fue tirada a la basura, jodidamente horrible.Es una lástima que el café Rias en la calle esté cerrado en este momento, un desayuno muy superior y un precio más razonable para comida de mejor calidad.

First time here today, very impressed with the food and very smiley service too. Yes the loo could do with a good scrub and revamp, it's quite shabby but don't let that put you off. Good selection and good prices.

He estado viniendo aquí durante años, atraído por el excelente café, el personal amable y la buena comida, aunque muy caro, sin embargo, este café descansa sobre sus laureles. Se ha vuelto en mal estado y sucio, especialmente las instalaciones sanitarias. Todo necesita un buen exfoliante. Asiento de inodoro muy viejo y muy sucio y sin tapa de sartén. Sin dispensador de grandes rollos de papel higiénico, lo que significa que los usuarios tienen que manejar todo el rollo para obtener papel higiénico, me estremezco al pensar qué gérmenes acechan dentro. No hay un receptáculo adecuado para pañales usados, etc., solo un mini contenedor de pedales golpeado con el pedal que no funciona, lo que significa que tenemos que levantar manualmente la tapa contaminada de gérmenes para eliminar la basura. Después de haber salpicado agua en el piso, usé papel para limpiarlo, el papel estaba negro con tierra, claramente el piso, si alguna vez se lava, no se lava adecuadamente. La puerta está sucia por dentro y por fuera, especialmente alrededor de las manijas y en la parte inferior. Nada que un buen exfoliante con grasa en el codo no cambie.La limpieza no cuesta nada. Shabby chic está bien, pero la suciedad no. He hablado con un miembro del personal sobre esto en el pasado y me dijeron que la gerencia tenía planeado una renovación. Eso fue hace semanas! Se requiere una limpieza profunda inmediata. Gracias.

Excellent food and ambiance with great service. They also have a great selection of organic drinks, wine, teas and coffees. Very popular place so you might have to wait a few minutes for a table but believe me it is worth it. Pancakes are amazing, cakes are also good.Highly recommend the Eggs Benedict or Eggs Royale.Prompt service and very friendly staff.

very enjoyable visit food was very good the server oliva was very friendly the coffee is great lovly stop off whenn walking the dogs

Stopped at the outside tables for coffee. Very busy which is always a good sign. Decent coffee. Dogs welcome outside, shame they don’t have an area inside as they will miss a lot of trade in the cooler months.

Have popped in a coupled of times for breakfast, delicious every time! Lovely little cafe in a great little village

Superb venue in this delightful Hampshire town. Olivia, who served us, was superb. Attentive and polite even though we sat outside. Thoroughly recommended

10.30 am, 1 of August. Meal: Eggs Benedict. Place was crowded. Food arrived in 10 minutes with a white coffee. Wonderful meal. Good service and helpful staff. The American pancakes looked yummy, next time I think.

Después de la decepción de nuestra parada habitual de desayuno el fin de semana pasado, probamos la recomendación de un amigo de Josie y quedamos gratamente sorprendidos. Personal educado y eficiente, excelente café y los mejores huevos que he servido. Aunque, ocupado reflejando su popularidad, nuestros desayunos se sirvieron muy rápido y profesionalmente. ¡Nuestra nueva parada de desayuno favorita en el área de Fareham! 24 para dos desayunos y dos para café, pero tengo que decir que la calidad supera con creces algunas de las alternativas más baratas.

Paramos a tomar un refresco camino a casa.

It took 45 minutes for our beakfast to arrive and this was after a couple of requests to see where our food was. Scrambled eggs were soft cooked so I asked for them to be cooked more which took another 20 minutes and further prompting.When asked why it took so long, reason given 'everything has been cooked from scratch' was not true, it was the same food that came out originally. An email sent 8 days ago to complain has not been responded to. Service, food and the response to our experience has all been very poor.

Okay okay. Heard about this gaff. Drove from wokingham and was not disappointed. 15 minute wait to sit down - a bit leave it but friendly staff and got to have a full ganders at the amazing menu.

We visited Josie’s as a family of four for brunch this morning and had a lovely meal. We ordered the small breakfast, full breakfast, American breakfast and breakfast pancakes, all of which were delicious.

My Daughters birthday - So dropped in here for a late brekky... As always had to wait around 10 minutes before a free table came up.. But then we had time to review the menu!

Bright and buzzing with fantastic staff. A regular weekend treat for brunch and good value. Only niggle is they’ve dropped the BLT and croque monsieur from the menu.

What a lovely treat! This quaint tearoom in the cute little streets of Bishop Waltham, held up its reputation of being absolutely delightful. The staff are all so friendly, the decor is very welcoming, and the food was absolutely fantastic! We only had a chance to try the pancakes, that had been recommended, and YUM... Glad I had them! They were more like light fluffy clouds, covered with sweet treats. The place ran very efficient, even though it was very busy. Can not wait to go back again and try some more scrumptious food! Would definitely recommend the fruit pancakes as a share dish if you are not that hungry. As Mary Poppins would say " very delightful"

Frequently an 'after school ' stop for hot chocolate with my grandchildren, Josie's also does a lovely breakfast - but it can be very busy, be warned!

I went there with my family on Sunday to have a quick lunch, and the staff was really friendly, and we like the environment. However I was really disappointed with their special dish - Turkey club sandwich. It cost nearly £10, but they didn't even use the proper turkey meat, they used Turkey package slices, and it contains 2 very thin slices of Turkey meat, I couldn't taste the Turkey meat at all. The other food my family ordered was tasty, so don't waste £10 on this Turkey club sandwich, try the other dishes.

"Smoothie" was more like a juice but the avocado toast was good. Went there on Saturday morning and it got very busy.

The staff are very friendly, helpful and cheerful. The coffee is great as is the atmosphere. The food as far, as I understand, is very tasty; however, I am vegan, and there is not one single savory meal option on the menu that is suitable for vegans. I do visit Josie's quite often, bringing with me friends and family, but am always left not eating a breakfast or lunch. It doesn't even seem that easy to customise a menu option as, quite disappointingly, there is no 'spread' available, only butter. I had a mushroom toasite - with oil as spread instead of actual spread. In this era of rising veganism, I do find this both disappointing and surprising that vegans are not catered for at all - apart from milk alternative drinks.

Arrived 3.30, Josie’s closes at 4 on a Sunday. Not a problem, we did not feel rushed or as if they were waiting for us to leave. We both ordered Croque Madam, both got double portions....as end of the day? Probably, but we were more than happy, totally delicious! Husband are both of his, I brought one home. No problem at all. Polite, courteous and friendly service. As we live in the village we will be back!

Always good. Enjoyed a lovely brunch with family last week. Only comment would be that menu becomes a little predictable when one visits often. Maybe some new treats to try?

We've been several times over the last few months and keep going back, so that stays something! Food and coffee are reliably very good. Service is back up to scratch. They also seem to have got the message about keeping the volume down on the piped music. They was a while when it was very intrusive. You have to ask why they bother at all as the place is usually buzzing and not in need of "plastic atmosphere."

My son and I visited Bishop Waltham for the first time. We decided to have a late breakfast at Josie’s. Overall, the breakfast was good, service was OK. The place was quite crowded because of half term. If we end up in this small town again we will try Josie’s again.

A come in here once or twice a month and usually get the same Buttermilk Chicken Toastie, which in itself is very good. I have had a few other things and they didn't blow me away.

Have been to Josie's in Winchester and felt we had to try Bishop's Waltham Branch. The two are very different. Winchester - vibrant, busy and good. Bishop's Waltham- a quiet place, but still very busy.

I had a few questions to ask the Josie’s team having never been there before. I had heard good things and so was interested in having a birthday brunch with a group of family members. I first used the contact form on the website. No reply. I tried ringing the cafe. Not able to get any response for a week. Then I tried an email. Finally I used Facebook Messenger and got a pretty quick reply. I was told that as we were a group of more than 8, we could book a table. I did this via Messenger and quickly received a confirmation.

After hearing some good reviews, and after witnessing many insta posts of the breakfasts from this place, we decided to venture to see what the fuss was about. Arrived and got a table...be advised this place becomes very busy, very quickly. Not such a hidden gem, more like a known treasure. So on to the verdict which matters. Breakfast quality was 8/10 (opted for egg,avocado on sour dough bread). My son had Pancakes which looked delicious. He seemed to enjoy them. The coffee was ok, your basic type of barista coffee. The pricing reflects the value of the breakfast. This not a weatherspoons so don’t expect cheap, but in life you get what you pay for.

Went to bed he Petersfield Josie’s before and it was so nice. Glad we decided to hit up Josie’s again as it was soooo good. Amazing food and friendly staff. Great place to go for food and a catch up for sure. Very nice tasting coffees and nice atmosphere

.. but 30 minute street parking is no use (time wise) .. you are much better using the public car park a short walk away (reasonably priced).. Very busy but as a rule you won't wait long for a table .. Wonderful menu covers all tastes .. service friendly and pleasing ... cannot go wrong whether it's Breakfast.. Brunch or Lunch .. Outside seating available ..

Visited on multiple occasions and this place is a must visit! Tends to be busy but it’s definitely worth it. The menu is great and much more interesting than your standard breakfast/brunch menu

This place is seriously good for brunch, we didn’t have to wait long for a table.

I've been here a few times with friends over the last few months and always found it busy, although luckily have never yet had to wait for a table. Service is friendly, coffee is very good and the menu is interesting and reasonably varied; the pancakes are particularly good. Personally I quite like the bustle of the place although it may not be everyone's cup of tea.

Having friends to stay we decided to walk into BW have Brunch and saunter back on Monday morning. One of our 4 has hearing difficulties and the music speaker in our corner made it very difficult to hear. The staff acted immediately and turned it right down. We all had different dishes, from vegetarian breakfast to a small classic English. All arrived together and were very tasty. This would be 5 stars but the tables inside were very close together and the acoustics a challenge (even without music!).

My daughter and I ordered the scone (asked if we wanted it warmed) clotted cream & jam as a special treat, together with our drinks. Arrived very quickly and was delicious. Sat outside in the warm sunshine and really enjoyed it.

We sat outside to have a coffee this morning. Very nice establishment. Coffee was very tasty and served in a mug!!!!! Great. Appears to be very popular and we will come back again when in Bishops Waltham for a lunch as the menu looks exciting.

Fairly clean table but crumbs. Not immediately obvious you had to order and pay at the counter, small print on the menu. I ordered a glass of wine but had to repeat my order before it arrived and then it was almost as my food came, so felt I had to rush it.

Lovely breakfast, fresh ingredients and nice coffee. Only downside was cramped seating and very, very noisy . Made you want to leave, couldn't sit and chat.

I have read a few reviews saying its too loud to busy blah blah. But honestly dont let the reviews put you off. You should try it atleast once and then make your mind up. I loved this place yes it was loud because it was busy but isnt busy good? The food was lovely and the coffee was beautiful. Good prices also for the quality of the food. Try it and if you dont like it dont go back. But honestly everyone should try this place just once

Food was nice however didn’t expect to find a piece of hair in one batch of pancakes and a piece of tin foil in the other. We were offered a free coffee, a slice of cake and a refund for only one of the meals however I don’t believe this was a suitable resolution to the problem. Such a shame as I had heard many great things about josie’s, I don’t think we will be returning.

I wish less people knew about this amazing place..!!!

never knew this place existed, great atmosphere , obviously a lot of regular visitors, as staff, although very young knew a lot of the regulars' names & appeared genuinely pleased to see them, which was so nice.The food was of a very good quality & standard and very tasty too.

We arrived at one minute to 4 on bank holiday Monday - they close at 4 but they served us and were welcoming and friendly. We will certainly be back.

Atmosphere and service was good but the food was overly salty and dry, wouldn’t choose to return if the choice was given

Well prepared and presented food from an interesting menu. Excellent service by friendly and lively staff. Great coffee!

Had the chicken toastie and it was great - the best bit was the coleslaw, which was lovely!! Will definitely go back...

We were visiting Winchester and were walking from the car park into town and decided to stop at Josie's for a bite of lunch. It was not peak time so a few spare tables and no queue. easy to order and the coffee was quick but had to wait nearly 40 minutes for our food. The food finally arrived and it was OK. But its expensive (£7) for what was two slices of toast with thin slices of grilled hallumi and mushrooms in between. i wouldn't stop there again

I regularly visit Josies with my boyfriend for breakfast and it is without a doubt our favourite place! The pancakes are huge and are always perfect I can honestly say they are the best I’ve ever had and never been disappointed with a visit. One of the best parts has to be the service as all the staff are very friendly, Lace always makes us feel extra special and even though everyone is very busy she always makes time to say hello and is always happy to help so I would like to say an extra thank you to her!

Josie's serves lovely food but it is always just too busy so not a great place for a quiet coffee and a cake. Not cheap and sadly I always feel I am in a cafeteria.

My first visit to Josie's with a friend. We had a lovely late lunch, which was freshly cooked, beautifully presented, perfectly hot and tasted gorgeous. Josie's had a lovely atmosphere, nice surroundings and friendly staff. Will definitely be back.

Visited on my birthday for a breakfast brunch. Got the window table amazingly . Busy with young mums but service as always quick and with a smile. Poached eggs and coffee. Great

Came and met some friends for a quick late lunch on Saturday a 4pm, the cafe/restaurant was quite quiet it obviously due to the weather. I sat down and ordered a tuna and onion toastie and a green tea. After 20 mins of waiting my food showed up, was fantastic, but I still didn't have my tea. My friend was also missing his sweet potato fires and when they came over shortly after I asked where my tea was. 10 minutes later I was half way through my food when they bought the wrong drink over to me, I took it back to the counter and asked for my actual drink, which I didn't get till I had finished my food. Working in a restaurant myself a customer should have their drink long before they gave their food, and because it arrived so late I barely had time to drink it before I had to leave. The safe weren't exactly apologetic or even care about their mistake which is the more upsetting thing really. Good food, but staff need to work on their customer service

All the staff were really friendly and happy to help. They always seemed enthused and eager to make our visit the best it could be. The food was good but a little overpriced however that is to be expected in a place like this. Likely to visit again.

Visit here often and it gets better every time. Delicious breakfast this morning, I had the sausage sandwich, piping hot and wonderfully fresh. Husband had mushrooms and poached eggs on sour dough, equally good. Service excellent and the atmosphere is worthy of any trendy London eatery. You may well have to queue to get in but always worth it.

I live in the village and probably use Josie’s about once a month. It’s a great place to meet friends for coffee but even better for lunch. It’s very popular so there’s often a queue for a table at peak times but they do take reservations.

My partner & I visited the Josies in Bishops Waltham for lunch today! The whole experience was just awful. I normally would rave about Josies, but after today I will not be returning. To begin with we waited around 20 minutes just for a coke to be served to us. After a long wait we then received our food. I ordered the buttermilk chicken pancakes - I found a hair within mine and was then put off. My partner ordered the Josies Club Toastie. This looked particularly dry and unfortunately was served with RAW chicken inside, which my partner had eaten. We got one of the waitresses over immediately and queried if the chicken should be cold and asked her if the chicken looked raw to her. She went through to the kitchen and spoke with chefs, we then saw her scrapping the remainder of the sandwich in to the bin. The waitress then came back to us and explained that they were all mortified and how sorry they were. We got a refund for the sandwhich and two loyalty cards for free coffees. Absolutely disgusted by this. Throughout us being in the restaurant we could here all the chefs singing and messing around, maybe if they actually were concentrating and cooking properly, raw chicken would not have been served. We will definitely not be returning and will not ever recommend to people who haven’t been before!

I had a fab breakfast in this vibrant cafe. The place was packed and several people waiting for tables. It’s fun, lively, good atmosphere and lovely food. I have been there twice both times I had a great breakfast and nice coffee.

Great coffee and fabulous food even for a vegetarian. Seems to be busy and they would benefit form a bigger space.

Very inconsistent with their food, eggs were hard for both me and my boyfriend, side orders were forgotten and too cramped to sit in there. Grumpy looking staff behind the bar too! What a shame.

Myself and my partner visit Josie's as a preferred option for breakfast/brunch. The food is always delicious and worth the wait if we visit at peak serving times. If you don't wish to wait try to visit early or later. A victim of its own popularity the café can become a little crowded with people waiting at the weekends. We find the staff are always welcoming and attentive and the menu choices and the food different to other similar establishments but well worth any waiting time which might occur. We have taken friends and family here on numerous occasions and without exception all have been impressed and vowed their wish to return in the future.

Bishops Waltham is a lovely little town filled with shops, restaurants and more! A

Modern but cosy little cafe. Staff were super friendly, service quick even when very busy. Food is simple and tasty, lots of breakfast and lunch options. Coffee was excellent.

20 minutes for a coffee today ... the order was forgotten. It’s such a shame because I really like the coffee. The food is great. Just the service is very hit and miss sometimes.

The manager of this establishment was incredibly rude to my mother (who is unwell) because she outstayed her welcome!!! I think they are only interested in a high turnover over customers who want to buy their overpriced food rather than valuing their regular local lonely customers!! I hope your profits are worth it as you have really upset my Mum!!!

Very poor selection of GF. Most places do cater for customers with wheat allergies. All that was offered was gf bread. I was charged over £6 for a very plain cheese toasted, dumped on a plate with a pot of coleslaw. This arrived fifteen minutes after my friends had finished their coffee and cake. Everything should of been brought out at the same time.

Without doubt one of our favourite brekkie places in the area. Although always busy the turnaround time and wait on tables is never long yet you never feel rushed. This is a more go to the counter and order type place than at table service but that has never taken away from our enjoyment the new menu is delicious and you are positively spoilt for choice. The only thing that I would say could be an improvement would be the option to book tables, however with how quickly they turn tables around I also understand they could be potentially losing out on revenue with late tables and no shows.

Sat in here right now having a spot of lunch with my husband.......it’s soooooo noisy we will have to leave immediately after we have finished our food, shame. Food is very nice, but would have to say I won’t come back at lunch time.

Came here with a friend randomly and would happily return. I had the ‘Eggs Royale’ & my friend had the ‘Vegetarian Breakfast’ both were lovely and we were very happy with our visit. Small, but nice place. Good food, good staff. We will be back!

We decided to meet some friends for a Sunday breakfast treat. We hadn’t been before, but were told by others to look for the café with the queue outside. Sure enough a small queue of people were waiting outside as we walked to the café.

This coffee shop /cafe is another great find . Bishops Waltham is one of those places that is very easy to just drive through and actually miss out on the best part of this quaint typically Hampshire style town.

it loks nic and has very nic furnitcher . staf was very sexy ... however al that was on the menu just Toast !!!!

My wife and I ( both in our 50's ) popped in here for the first time today. We loved the vibe with such a mix of age groups, it was buzzing with all types of locals,tourists and ramblers.

Really really friendly staff. I spilt my coffee accidentally. A waitress dashed over. Moped up the table and gave me a complimentary coffee. Food is cheap and tasty. Atmosphere is brilliant. A wonderful place. Unfortunately lots of other people agree with me as it is constantly busy!! Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent value.

We popped in after looking for somewhere to book for an evening meal as we are staying locally. Lovely atmosphere, attentive & polite staff, tasty affordable food...great for just chilling out. The smoothie was a hit with our 15 year old.

Kids loved the pancakes, Dad loved the breakfast burger. They serve a quality hot chocolate and lovely coffee. Great for a lazy morning graze.....

Have been going there for years have never been disappointed. Lunch or breakfast is always excellent.

I have previously given Josies 5⭐️ reviews. But standards have really slipped . Met a friend for coffee ( we have not seen each other for ages ) the coffee came quickly but was only warm , asked for replacements, but only 1 came .. decided to stay for lunch and ordered the club sandwich.. well yuk .. it was stale bread and hardly any filling . I have had this before and it was very good , then the last time I had it , I sent it back and had it replaces ... didn't have time to get it changed and didn't want to make a fuss as I had already complained about the coffee . Did try to phone when I got home , but no one answers the phone . So I thought I would email , but the site no longer allows it . I have been coming here since you opened and I agree with a lot of regulars that it is not as good as it used to be

We first visited on a busy Sunday morning based on a recommendation from our hotel. There was a line. It moved fast enough and it was well worth the wait. We loved it so much we came back the next morning to try something else. A unique menu with a mix of fun and tasty flavors. I recommend any of the items with fried chicken!
