Karma Cafe & Meze in Poole

Great food, good portion sizes and lovely atmosphere with excellent service. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic food. Molly is so friendly along with the other staff. Very tasty food and well priced. Always a warm welcome. Highly recommend!

Five stars aren't enough for this place. Great food, great service. We had a lovely meal and had to take away doggy bags!!

As always fantastic service, wonderful authentic food. Best restaurant in Poole. Thanks for a lovely lunch. Special spicy sauce was very much a lovely addition.

What a fabulous restaurant. We were a party of 10, due to size of party we had to pay a deposit of £5 per person and pre order our food.. which is totally understandable for a larger group. The food was amazing, we all shared the meze sharing dishes..so much food. Gluten free potions available too. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Thank you for a great evening… we will be back

An absolute gem of a place. Lovely well prepared and flavoursome food. We will be coming back, a lot.

Excellent service great staff amazing food highly recommended

Very nice food and great atmosphere. I would highly recommend.

We still visit Karma regularly and thought it about time to post another review after last night’s great meal. The food was excellent and the friendly people made us so welcome as always. We chatted to a few first-time diners who were equally impressed and heard nothing but positive comments from others. This is definitely our “goto” restaurant in Broadstone.

Very accommodating staff. We loved the friendly welcome and the menu. “Mezze as a main” option was a great shout if you can’t pick. Delicious

I would like to commend the professional & friendly service. I would also like to say the food was lovely and very tasty. We had marinated olives to start followed by a chicken special & sea bream with accompaniments. We had a red & rose wine. I look forward to going again in the near future.

Smashing Cafe/Restaurant. Visit regularly now with my Mum living nearby. Love the food and the staff are great and really accommodating towards her Parkinsons condition x

Having had a great meal and excellent hospitality @ Karma in August we vowed to return ASAP so we decided to take my mum for her first meze experience. Oh yes….she loved it too!

Family evening out with my mother; friendly and attentive service, great food and all at a very reasonable price - I would have no hesitation in going back or recommending Karma to anyone.

Poped in for a quick coffee and cake. Wow the carrot cake was delicious best Gluten free cake I've had. Coffee was delicious best I've had in a while. I asked if I could look at the menu and it all looks delicious so i will definitely return for lunchtime or evening dinner. I was also informed about their Wednesday wine and mezze evenings, so might have to get the girls together for that.

Stayed in Blandford Forum and saw this restaurant in Broadstone….so worth the journey! We love Greek/Turkish and weren’t disappointed. Excellent service and food…..if only we lived nearer! Will revisit whenever we are passing in the future.

Absolutely amazing staff, superb atmosphere and excellent food, as always! Thank you, Martin, Molly and your wonderful team for a most delicious dinner and fabulous evening. See you soon! x

Absolutely amazing as always Went for my daughters birthday and they made sure she had a fantastic time Great staff great food great place

We went to Karma on a Friday evening as we were staying locally. We opted for the meze which was 12 dishes and included dips (hummus, tzatziki), salad (tabbouleh, aubergine and broad beans), lamb and chicken skewers, Turkish sausage, borek and falafel all of which were delicious. Despite being full we shared a yoghurt with honey and walnuts for dessert! The bill was approximately £82 including a tip and bottle of wine. The service was friendly and the only very small criticism was that all the dishes came out together where it would have been better to be staggered. Saying that we would happily return.

Myself and my wife visited for the first time last night. The food was lovely, the service was excellent, the restaurant was set out very nicely with plenty of room. We will definitely return and would recommend 🙂👍

Meze main course for two Wow it was amazing food plenty of choice. Service was excellent. Very accommodating to all our needs. Will definitely go back

An amazing place with tasty food and friendly staff. Went for my husband's special Birthday and had a great, memorable time. A special thank you to Molly.

I love this place! The food is so tasty, highly recommend the hot meze for two people or for a group. The wine is a good price and you can order a carafe (or two!). Try the Turkish coffee too! And the staff are fabulous - so attentive and friendly. The service is excellent and you go home feeling happy and content after a meal here - it’s a special place.

Excellent and authentic Greek, they do 3 daily sittings and whether you’re having breakfast, lunch or dinner the experience is exceptional. The food is very well made and the menu excellent. The staff are friendly and cannot do enough for you. Perfect in every way 11/10.

4 of us (2 couples) had dinner here last night for a friends birthday. The service was brilliant, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was lovely. I wish I had gotten the name of our server, she was attentive, kind and fun! Thanks for a lovely evening. I’d highly recommend this place and will be going back.

5 out of 5. My wife and I visited tonight for the first time and both can’t wait to return to try the rest of the menu. Service was fantastic, everything we had tasted amazing and the food portion sizes are great. Thank you.

Little gem in Broadstone. Amazing food, large portions and great service. Went for lunch with a friend and we loved it. Authentic Mediterranean

Gorgeous atmosphere, delicious food, perfect portions. Really wonderful

Our favourite restaurant in Dorset. Absolutely fantastic food and excellent service.

Such a lovely restaurant. A really warm welcome and cosy atmosphere. The menu is incredible. I've never had a bad meal here.

Loved the food, service excellent. Had a great evening

As always a great meal at Karma, we could not recommend more highly. Staff are so friendly, great relaxed atmosphere and food sooo tasty. We will defo be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We went here before a morning meeting the following day. I chose the location based on the reviews. I could not fault it. I loved the venue. Small and felt very personal. The person up front just made it feel very relaxed and personal. There was 5 of us and a coupe of other groups of two people, who were not with, so very chilled (Tuesday night). Well welcomed after a 4 hour drive. I love Cypriate / Turkish / mediterranean food and this was spot on in my opinion and clearly many others judging by the reviews. A big thumbs up to the lady up front, she was working hard. And a big thumbs from my 4 work mates on the experience. Any excellent job by the folks in the backroom. Totally recommended.

There is always a warm welcome from the lovely people at Karma. Once more our meal was delicious and the service outstanding.

It has the best food & the people are really nice.100%

Amazing restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent, very friendly and relaxed staff and great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic place for a meal. Friendly welcoming and professional staff. Great variety of tasty meals . Food quality is exceptional. Would highly recommend 5*

Family run , very good Greek Food, good service.

This was our second visit and it did not disappoint. Lovely food, great service and very reasonable. I had the chicken gyros and my wife the bream fillet.....fantastic. Looking forward to the next time.

I am organising an Easter fundraiser for a local caters charity and as Karma Cafe are neighbours of the charity I went into the cafe today to ask if they could offer a small prize donation. I was extremely polite in my request when speaking to a member of staff. At that point the manager turned up. She then spoke to the manager about the request. I didn’t follow the discussion between the two as it wasn’t directed towards me but he seemed unhappy that I had asked in the first place and dismissed my presence. He suggested he couldn’t do anything due to “head office” restrictions. I didn’t follow the conversation well and so said I’ll speak to the manager another day. At that point he shouted at me “I AM the manager!” He then angrily reiterated that he wasn’t prepared to help. I found this behaviour to be extremely unprofessional. I am aware that charity requests may be high but I was polite in my manner. If a business feels they cannot help a charity then all that is required is a polite decline and words to say it’s not something they can help with. As a previous patron of Karma Cafe I was very disappointed with this interaction. I had always enjoyed the cafe and the service had always been very good. However I will not be returning here. I would urge the management to reconsider their conduct when they are faced with requests that are at odds with their business objectives.

I recently met with my niece Helen and Goddaughter Jackie and we had a splendid lunch. The sharing Meze was delicious. I’d love to come again. Might you be open for lunch on Christmas Eve.

8 of us went for lunch this week Plates all empty by the end... delicious food. We had a mixture of mixed grilled and specials which were chicken gyro or pork gyro dishes. Really well cooked. Friendly and welcoming staff, who join in on the banter at times I would go back 100%

such a lovely place for a quick coffee with my 2 little ones. The staff were so good with the children who loved the fresh croissant. Lunch menu looks delicious and can't wait to try again for lunch or even dinner.

What a wonderful whole dining experience Great food brilliant friendly service and a warm atmosphere Definitely on the list for a swift return

Lovely venue, definitely recommend it.

What a treat! Absolutely delicious food! We loved trying something different and weren't disappointed, rather hugely impressed, we'll definitely be back. Such a lovely, friendly lady serving us with a keen sense of humour

Thoroughly recommend wow was the food tasty, hats off to the chef. Service was brilliant too, we'll definitely be back. Was recommended by a friend and it didn't disappoint.

Fantastic food and fantastic staff

Lovely and friendly staff had great meals in their would definitely go back when in Dorset again. Quite a decent variety of meals.

Lovely service and food. Definitely go again

My husband and I had a wonderful evening, Martin the owner, and his beautiful wife, are so accommodating, they could not do enough for us. The food was very good, very tasty, lots of it too. We will definitely be returning in the near future. We highly recommend. Xxxxxx

Awesome place with its own unique soul!

Excellent experience first time there Highly recommended

Breakfast is fantastic! Attentive (not too attentive) and friendly staff!

Beautiful little place. Popped in without a reservation and luckily for us it was ok. Food was so yummy and fresh. Portions were huge. Staff were so friendly and warm. Definitely will return!

Enjoyed a meal here on a Tuesday night. The place has a nice atmosphere as it was fairly busy . Ordered prawns in tempura batter , grilled chicken on a skewer and lamb shank . It was all very tasty.

Excellent vegetarian breakfast and great coffee. The service was outstanding! friendly and attentive. Will definitely visit again, highly recommend.

Excellent food. Great service. Reasonable cost. Will definitely be back

Great food and lovely welcome, as always!

First class, the meals and service have always been excellent!

We were made to feel very welcome and given the menus and the waiter explained the specials, even showing us a picture straight from the oven. The meze starter was delicious and plentiful, of note the aubergine ratatouille and the hummus. Plumped for the slow cooked lamb chump main, which was so tender and flavoursome. When it came to dessert, no comment as sadly no room! Well worth a visit.

Delicious food & coffee...very Greek ...Nice will return.

Popped into here at about 930am on a Saturday morning. We very much enjoyed a very delicious Pain au Raisin and an enormous latte. We were the only customers on arrival, but it quickly filled up, and for good reason... it's excellent! Will definitely be returning, probably regularly ❤️

Decided to join my fellow retirees for a breakfast treat that they recommended, and wasn't disappointed. Service was very good and food reasonably priced. I went for the full English and large hot chocolate. Breakfast was nice and hot and tasty, and very filling with two slices of toast and butter included. Soon picked up after we sat down, so pre 10am was a good start as it's a veery popular place.

Absolutely amazing food, and wonderful service! Can’t wait to revisit

Lovely friendly cafe. Great meeting place and tasty food.

Really nice place, the food was excellent and good value for money, the staff were very friendly and made us welcome from the time we stepping into restaurant to the time we left. Drinks are reasonably priced, it's quite a small restaurant, but I would highly recommend it

Amazing food. Such a lovely independent place, attentive and good value for money. Strongly recommend.

Visited last week with friends, food was that good we went back this week with more friends. Lovely evening with excellent food and service. Very friendly welcome from a knowledgeable gentleman who talked us through the menu, the lamb was absolutely stunning!

Five of us came here last night. It was Hughs birthday meal, and pleased we chosen this wonderful restaurant ❤️. It's only small but great decorations. And a super atmosphere. The food was outstanding,and reasonable priced. Our waitres Paulina,well what a star couldn't do any more for you very impressed. Not forgetting Molly the boss who also was outstanding with her hospitality the pair of them are the perfect team. A big thank you to the chef it was surpurb. With a perfect end song of happy birthday sung by most of the guests to. We will definitely return. Highly recommend.

Popped in Thursday evening. We were lucky as they had a table available. All others had been reserved. Very friendly welcome from our waitress who looked after us from start to finish. Food was extremely fresh and authentic. We loved it and will be returning again. Thanks

Always a delight to visit. The food is delicious and the service just right. Can't recommend one dish from the menu as they are all yummy...

We had breakfast here today, delicious, we looked at the evening menu and booked for this evening, it really was delicious food..we decided to have 7 starters between 3 of us because we couldn't decide what to have...we will definitely have to go back to try the rest if the menu..great food great service

It’s rare to find a place as brilliant as this! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is amazing and the hospitality is like no other. We came here for a friends birthday and I loved every minute of our stay. The staff were so personable and caring! I am definitely a loyal customer now and will be coming back very soon!

Great food, very friendly staff. Definitely going again.

Second time visiting this restaurant and we will be back. The front line staff make you so welcome and the food is superb. We had not reserved a table but fitted us in knowing we had only an hour and a half to finish the superb meal..it is a pity Jersey does not take an example of this fine restaurant, which is packed every day..

Excellent restaurant!! Fabulous service with a super funny waiter made the evening even more special😁 will be coming back that's for sure.

Excellent food fantastic service can’t say anything bad about this place, please give it a try. Don’t take my word for it!! Thank you for looking after us we had a wonderful time.

Realny delicious food. Kind staff and brillant atmosphere

Amazing food that's clearly made fresh with pride and passion. Very friendly staff and nice environment. An absolute gem I'm glad to have found.

Great service, great food. Stumbled across this café by accident but will make the journey again as the food was lovely. We had wraps for lunch which were packed full of filling and accompanied with chips and a really tasty chilli sauce. Staff were very friendly explaining closing time of the kitchen, and detailing what was on the specials menu.

What a lovely little gem in broadstone. Called on the off chance of a table and got lucky because it was really busy. Food was incredible, very authentic and the service was fantastic. Thanks for a lovely meal

Wonderful food and wonderful people. Service is excellent.

Lovely lunch today😄. Delicious food with very friendly staff. Will definitely return - we found a jewel!

The food was exceptional, the service brilliant. Highly recommend. My favourite restaurant around.

Wonderful food. Service was good and fast. Friendly staff. Need more veggie options not everyone likes 🍆 aubergine Was so hot inside needs aircon.

Fantastic service and delicious food. Great atmosphere too!

A really delicious light lunch menu and looking forward to dinner at Karma very soon! Starter selection 😋 Lovely atmosphere and friendly, attentive service. Would definitely recommend.

We popped in for a lunchtime meal. Absolutely gorgeous food and excellent service. Would thoroughly recommend the starter meze sharing platter for two which had some of the best hummus, tzatsiki and tabule I've tasted. Couldn't fault. We will be back!

Managed to get a late booking due to a cancellation. Fantastic food, fresh and flavoursome. The service is efficient and friendly. Excellent menu with lots of choice for all tastes. Will definitely visit again.

Lovely well presented cafe with delusions food

Staff are friendly, welcoming & were incredibly helpful when booking our visit. The food was delicious. I'm now a fan of Ouzo!!

The meze was absolutely delicious, and the service was warm and welcoming. We will be definitely be going back again!

Lovely food and and the staff are awesome!

First time in this gem of a restaurant! Staff top class, great atmosphere and the food was absolutely magic! Highly recommend to anyone wanting a taste of quality Greek cuisine. Will definitely be back.

Lovely ambience and great food. Nothing is too much to ask. Friendly staff :)

I visited here with my mum in mid December. We both had a lunchtime special. The food and service was amazing. Fresh, tasty, generous portions. Attentive, friendly service. I enjoyed it so much I felt compelled to write a review. Cracking little place and will definitely return.

What a fantastic lunch with friends. Delicious food, friendly efficient service. We will definitely be back. Thank you

Lovely little restaurant. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Service was excellent, run by a friendly Greek gentleman with a great sense of humour. The food was incredible. We had the meze platter for 2 which was delicious and then I had the stuffed aubergine which was perfectly cooked and my husband had a lamb & aubergine dish which he loved. Cannot wait to go back!!

A lovely little restaurant with lovely authentic food. Staff are lovely and attentive. Reasonable prices and very good portion sizes. I have never had a bad meal in the 5+ years I have been going to either of the restaurants (used to go to Poole). Highly recommend it
