No. 9 On the Green in East Dorset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Wimborne was busy on a Friday morning around 11am, we have never been to this cafe but it was not so busy and not noisy which we liked. I did not think to check trip advisor reviews and we took a chance to eat here. We wanted breakfast i went for full English £12.95 approx my mum went for poached eggs on toast £9 approx. I felt this was over priced but we went with it. we also ordered two cappuccinos. positives The decor is quaint and pretty inside. staff friendly menu offers breakfast, lunch, cakes, hot and cold drinks. the sausage was good quality locally sourced which i prefer. the service was efficient. negatives: coffees were luke warm, we sent them back and asked for them to be hot. staff were sorry and gave us fresh hot coffees. Poached eggs for us both were not runny but hard. The toast was not buttered and no butter was offered and the eggs were already placed on top of the toast. so would have had to gently removed them to butter the toast. the bacon on mine was rock hard like it had been cooked and left for a while or reheated to serve. my full English breakfast did not feel freshly cooked, in that the items felt like they were cooked a while ago then reheated. I have read other tripadvisor reviews for this cafe and see there are some positives ones but maybe this was an 'off' morning for the chef cooking our breakfast. I would advise the cafe to ask if customers want their toast buttered (proper butter only). If serving poached eggs they need to be runny!! otherwise it's like eating a soft boiled egg. Maybe for the price of the full English offer two eggs and two sausages. and make sure the coffee is the right temperature. it needs to be hotter so it doesnt go luke warm quickly. I hope this can be taken on board as it's a lovely spot in Wimborne over looking the minster.

We had lunch here on Saturday. I had a goats cheese quiche and my husband the cheddar and leek quiche. Both came with potato salad, a green salad and red cabbage coleslaw. I’m a keen cook and normally quite critical but could find no fault or room for improvement with either. Excellent. Also what lovely, well turned out staff.

Between us we enjoyed a really delicious med veg & goats cheese salad, posh cheddar toastie & beef pasty. Lovely coffee too & great selection of cakes (lime & courgette loaf & Dorset Apple were very tasty). Great location, welcoming staff & dog friendly. What’s not to like?!

Booked here for afternoon tea for 3. On the day we were due to visit we were rung to say the cafe would not be opening that day due to staffing issues but if we were prepared to sit outside the afternoon tea could go ahead via their bakery next door. As the weather was gorgeous we agreed as it was not possible to rearrange to another date as we were only visiting on that date. The afternoon tea had unlimited Tea (none of us had coffee) and the food consisted of a sausage roll, a slice of quiche, 4 finger sandwiches each - 3 fillings of savoury tuna, egg mayo and ham & tomato. You got a large scone with jam and clotted cream and also a large slice of cake. At £22.50 a head it is good value. You do need to book in advance for afternoon tea though.

We had the Goats Cheese Toastie on Sourdough with Chips. It tasted delicious and fresh too. Lovely ambience near the church too.

Dtopped for a coffee and scones. The scones were fab, generous portion of cream and jam. Great little spot next to the church.

Honestly, the best breakfast in Wimborne and as a long time resident I’m well qualified to make the claim. Quality ingredients and really well cooked, excellent.

Had a delicious lunch here last Friday. I had the veg and goats cheese salad which came with a selection of tasty salads and my husband enjoyed the goats cheese salad. I then treated myself to a piece of carrot cake which was also very nice. The staff were very friendly and we sat outside over looking the minster. We will be visiting again soon!

Asked for the lemon drizzle to go One was a normal slice The other was 3/4 Plus a shortbread caramel slice Both were terrible The cake was so sweet I couldn’t Tate lemon and the chocolate slice as well as the lemon cake like overload of sugar Awful sorry won’t be back!

We frequently go here for lunch at the weekend. The staff are lovely and thr food is great. They will always go the extra mile for us and make us feel welcome. My husband is a particular fan of the all day breakfast and the kids love the fish fingers! The selection of cake is always outstanding and so tempting - definitely worth the calories!

Beautiful little spot for a cafe opposite the Minster. Great sun trap. Stopped for a coffee and could not resist a scone and cream. Well worth a stop off.

A disappointing brunch for four was £55!! All our fried eggs were over cooked and the extra sourdough toast had been cremated on one side and was unprofessionally served with the burnt side face down. My son asked for unburnt toast and literally 3 minutes later they served sourdough which was barely toasted so he had to take it back. By this time his English breakfast was cold. This is basic stuff which should be easy enough to do and was not picked up by management. They were not busy when we ordered and when we asked for a high chair they clearly couldn’t be bothered to walk to their sister restaurant next door to get one. An extremely disappointing meal. We shall not return.

This is a favourite destination on my cycles from Poole. Usually I take away one of the delicious pies to eat on a bench in the church grounds. Today I treated myself to a table outside and ordered a Sandbanks bitter and the Posh Beans on Toast. The butter beans with onion , garlic and tomatoes on sourdough toast was exceptional. Despite a chilly February day, I sat outside having a mindful moment gazing up at the beautiful 12th century church enjoying the chimes of the famous clock every quarter. Service outside involves ordering inside and one should be relaxed and have plenty of time as service can be slow. I have never eaten inside the teahouse but it looks lovely. But nothing can beat that view from the outside tables.

I visited recently with my husband for lunch whilst visiting Wimborne, the cafe is in a beautiful location next to the minster, I ordered the tuna and lime toasted sandwich which was served with a lovely side salad and crisps. Absolutely delicious food and lovely coffee too. Highly highly recommend.

We visited No9 a week ago and going back today, it is vegan friendly and the staff where very knowledgeable friendly and polite and our custom was paramount. Outdoor seating was heated for the cold days and it was so pleasant to be outside, I can imagine it must be a lovely place to sit in warmer weather. Please if you are near or in Wimborne, pop in and enjoy. Highly recommended.

Made the order for breakfast and 40 minutes later left as had a car park ticket running near time and other things to do. Paid the bill, got nothing, staff didn’t give a toss. Didn't even apologise. Through the time we spent sitting there like a pair of dummies we may as well have been invisible. No update on the wait and no worries when we left. Still took the money though. For nothing.

Thanks to the mild weather we were able to dine outside with a view of the church. Good range of food and cakes. In winter I presume they do take away or catering jobs as no seating in side though they have patio heaters. Only downside is the public toilets adjacent… no smell or anything but my husband found that the Gents wasn’t as clean as it could be. Though this would be out of control of the cafe.

This was wonderful treat for my birthday lunch to discover this place. The menu was extensive but everything was cooked freshly to order. The staff were charming and engaging and had time for a chat. The food was absolutely splendid and I can’t stop thinking about having eaten the best cheese scone ever! This marvellous establishment is highly recommended.

This is the most delightful eating experience for many reasons. The food is delicious delightful, the staff are ALWAYS so pleasant, cheerful and kind. The ambience is wonderful set in an olde bakery directly opposite the Minster in Wimborne. Flagstone floors, low ceilings and Bow window. Just something out of a Beatrix Potter tale. The menu offers a wide range of the most tasty meals (must try their sausage rolls!) 😋 All in all an experience which you will want to repeat again and again.

What a lovely time we had here. My granddaughter and I were made very welcome from the moment we stepped in. The staff were very attentive, friendly and great to chat to even though they were very busy. We had some of the best cakes I'd ever eaten and my granddaughter certainly enjoyed her Vegan chocolate cake. I also took home some scones from their Bakery, which went down a storm in my house, they even had gluten free scone for my wife. I also must mention the coffee and the hot chocolate were delicious. We can't wait to come back soon.

What a lovely cafe!!.really friendly and happy staff. The home made beef pasty had more filling than pastry and was delicious accompanied by a fresh salad,home made coleslaw and potato salad. We will definitely be coming back to this little jewel!!

We visited here twice on our holiday as it was so good the first time. Staff very friendly and helpful, food lovely and a beautiful setting right next to the minster.

We were able to book a table for two, near the front window looking across at the Wimborne Minister. We had the Home Made Hummus etc and the Goats Cheese etc Sourdough Toasties, with Chips. All were ready fresh and tasted lovely. Good service and...

Ordered a Takeaway Sandwich today and whilst the Sandwich was great it took nearly 20mins to get to me .

Good food, prompt service and good view of the Minster, we always enjoy our visits to this cafe whilst staying in the area

We do recommend this place, fresh delicious food, friendly service and beautiful atmosphere overlooking Wimborne Minster. Couldn't fault our visit, very delightful.

Lovely breakfasts, delicious coffee, attentive staff. Searting available inside our outside overlooking the minster.

We have been here before and always liked it. However our last visit was disappointing. The staff seemed more focused on themselves and were not attentive. We had not booked and it was busy. There were empty tables with timed reservation cards on them. We...

We went here for brunch, food was excellent - no complaints! However shocked to see the girls with hair down serving food, would say this could be a potential food hygiene issue.

This is both a bakery and a restaurant. The restaurant has a wonderful view of the Minster, a medieval church. I recommend their cream tea and everything on their menu. The bakery has many beautiful cakes but I find the scones irresistible. When I visit...

A nice pitstop on a cold morning, we enjoyed the breakfast baps and good coffee. We popped back for a cuppa later and it was very busy. Friendly service, all good.

Not our first visit. Welcoming staff. Good choice of food available - would not hesitate to eat here again on our next trip to Dorset.

Lovely little tea room. Staff friendly but I wish they would tie their hair back!! The girl with the loose pink hair, was serving food and drinks...... surprised in this day where hygiene is so important.

We found this fantastic little cafe while visiting with family and have to say it was superb. All the food, cakes etc were made fresh and the sausage rolls, pastries and scones were delicious, the pasty and sausage roll we ordered were fresh and full...

We happened upon this cafe by chance and were amazed by the quality of both the food and coffee. It's not cheap but it's definitely good value for money. The scones, sausage rolls and pasties were homemade and full of flavour. Overall we all thoroughly...

Popped in for late lunch. Food was fine but the staff seemed busy and rushed. They seemed to be serving in the inside cafe and also the outside area up the road.

We had heard a lot of good things about No9 from friends, so decided to give it a go. We were not disappointed! You cannot beat the location, one of the best in Wimborne particularly on a sunny day! Such a relaxed and friendly place...

A wonderful little cafe opposite Wimborne Minster church. Great service and lovely staff and the goats cheese sandwich was one of the best I have had

the lovely friendly waitresses, the cream tea. a proper english cream tea that you would expect granny to serve up. cream tea heaven, the scone was hot straight from the oven, large pot of tea 3 cups each and a lovely view of the minster...

One of the best breakfast I’ve had in Dorset. So glad my friend introduced me to this fabulous family run restaurant. I shall be back for sure.

This hidden gem opposite the Minster has always been a family favourite for brunch but we hadn't visited for a while due to recent events. They still offer a wide variety of options from a traditional full English (with locally sourced ingredients) to savoury and...

We had a lovely family trip to number 9 where we met up with our close friends. The weather was glorious so we could sit outside and really soak up the atmosphere which was so friendly, cheerful and welcoming! The food was delicious and the...

A gem of a find for lunch in lovely surroundings with a view of the minster. We opted for sandwiches which were made freshly on homemade bread, with generous fillings.

Stopped here for a late afternoon cappuccino and cake. Outside tables had a view of the Minster. Coffee was strong and had plenty of foam- I detest watery cappuccino. All the cakes were homemade, we shared a cheese scone and Dorset Apple cake - both...

Made my first visit here in over a year. Greeted by some delightful staff who made us feel very welcome. It was great to see it busy. A little bit of a wait on food but that’s understandable. Lovely way to finish our first visit...

This place is a gem, really excellent food, friendly staff, serene atmosphere. Great for breakfast, lunch and snacks.

Having wandered around the Minster, we were pleased to sit down in its shadow, in this beautiful traditional tea shop. My daughter had a fruit tea , which came in a generous pot, while I had a latte. We shared a toasted tea cake, which...

Tiny cup of coffee not even 3/4 full £2.75. Sausage roll £4.15! Two coffees and 2 sausage rolls £13.80! £14 for a mid morning break with my wife. I'm sorry but I really don't care how nice the coffee and sausage roll actually were, this...

Amazing scotch eggs, fluffy granary bread and friendly service all over looking the beautiful Minster. Would highly recommend!

Such a lovely breakfast in a perfectly quaint setting opposite the Minster. Service outstanding. Friendly, warm and welcoming. Can’t wait for the tapas evenings this summer!

Lovely little gem of a place, I come here often with friends and today, I brought my husband and daughter, was a lot busier than normal, but still a lovely place to visit. Staff are so friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. Food is always lovely, have never had a bad meal. Would highly recommend.

This little Restaurant tucked away just off the main street was a great find.It was a little cold and the covid spacings spoil the cosy nature but the Welcomewas Genuine the Service was Delightful and the Cooking Sublime.They deserve to succeed, with a small menu of well crafted dishes cooked toperfection and deserts of fiendish temptation we hope they are able to carry on in these uncertain times, and look forward to another visit when they let us out ofthe West Midlands.,

Went in for lunch today, we were a group of 5 (including a little one) and considering the pressures of the world at the moment we were still sat quickly and efficiently. The food across the board was very good (we had a range of toasties and sandwiches) coffee’s were hot, but he cakes delicious and the service was excellent. We were chatting to a lady as we paid our bill and she turned out to be the owner, she was friendly and attentive and it’s clear that she is passionate about giving every customer a good experience. A cracking lunch and I am sure we will be back!

È stato un pranzo piacevole con una bellissima vista su Wimborne Minster. Buoni i toast. Cameriere gentili e disponibili.

Visited the cafe today. Lovely place and atmosphere. The servers were so friendly and the food was just fantastic. I had poached eggs and avo on Gluten free bread. I am a coelaic. After tasting my food on arrival,it was so good my partner wanted to try some. He is non GF and he even commented on how amazing the bread was. I got a little worried that maybe they had switched up the breads since the GF was so good, but when I enquired with the server and he double checked with the kitche, they confirmed it was safe. That's how good it was. Apparently they sell it. I understand now why it was sold out. I just wish I could but it online and get it delivered to London. I was so embarrassed asking the serve if he was sure it was GF as it tasted so good. But other coeliacs and GFers would know when the panic sets in, you're always better asking.So really cannot recommend the place enough. If I am ever passing through again I will definitely go in. I'm just sorry I never got to try they cakes.

Went to no 9 for lunch in the miserable rain. The coffee was great quality. For lunch we had fish gougons and quiche. Both were very nice. Chips that came with the fish gougons were on the salty side. The quiche was excellent and the salad that came with was delicious. I would also recommend the chocolate brownies because they were great! The establishment was on the crowded side. The tables did seem a bit close together.

Ordered 2 very small pasties at £3.95 each. 1 portion of chips at £3.75 and 2 Americano regular coffee's at £2.95 each. By my adding up this comes to £17.55.We were charged £19.95.When I questioned the price I was basically told I was wrong and they were right. No apology or checking prices. Basically if you don't like it don't come again.Shame because we live locally and we will be telling all our friends and social groups not to go there.

Stopped here for a morning coffee the other day. We were very pleased to see the staff were wearing either visors or masks; I wish that more catering establishments would do this, as it certainly gives us more comfort. Distancing and cleansing was also good.This is a lovely spot to sit outside across from the Minster (as long as you don't sit too close to the public toilets!), have a coffee and watch the world go by.

Popped in for morning coffee. Lovely, attentive staff. Had a homemade sausage roll which was absolutely delicious 😋 Went to the bakery after coffee to place a take away order for the morning. Pasties, sausage rolls and cake! All lovely 😍 Thank you.

We visited here yesterday afternoon for tea and scones! Staff are friendly and helpful, they are taking Covid guidelines seriously making you feel safe. The scones were delicious and it was a bonus to find that they even cater for allergies! I have multiple allergies and haven’t had a scone in years but they were able to cater for me. You couldn’t tell they were gluten free neither! We loved them so much, we visited again this morning to grab some to take home. Lovely place, we will be back!

We stopped off here for breakfast, excellent setting, very relaxing, excellent food, and excellent service. Highly Recommended.

I've just written two grump reviews so it's great to be positive! Popped in here for light lunch. Everything just great. Quiche was fab, bread was genuine and the filling perfect. Nicely presented, staff very helpful and friendly and they did the whole social distancing thing very well.

I came across Number 9 by accident, it looked so pretty and inviting I could not resist. I only had time for coffee but have to say the service was great and the coffee wonderful. I had a lovely table right in front of the Minster.I was particularly impressed by the attitude and efficiency of the young man who served me who I am guessing is only early to mid term. He was fabulous!I am looking forward to returning soon and sampling something from the menu.

From the moment we entered to the minute we paid our bill the customer service was fantastic. The young Canadian lady was fantastic at her job. She deserves praise. We ordered the veg pasty and cheese and chutney toastie.... both delicious and comes with a great side salad (id love to know what the dressing was). Beautiful quirky cafe.

I was walking to wimborne and decided to go fo for lunch and after checking on the government website I found out that No.9 on the green the bakery is q participant of the eat out scheme.So I ordered lunch and have just been told that the manager 'changed his mind' and they're not doing it at no.9 the bakery but just no.9 on the green. If he changed his mind, that's ok but it shouldn't be on the list if they're not doing it!so I was looking to enjoy my discount and nice food. I didn't get any.The fish finger dry,Prawn sandwich look like shrimp and avocado black. Ordering from bakery I was expecting fresh bread.

Visited Sunday 9th August. No complaints with food or drink, nice setting beside the beautiful Minster. Visit spoilt by one one member of staff who was very curt and unfriendly to the point of rudeness. I assume it was the same member of staff described in the other comment. The other two on duty were friendly and professional.

We had a great lunch here, the chicken, sun dried tomatoes and pesto on sourdough and quiche and salad. It was super tasty and fresh. The food also arrived in a timely manner. My only complaint would be the attitude and customer service of one of the waitresses. She was very short and curt with customers when taking orders and also when reminding customers about Covid restrictions. I witnessed her being particularly brusque with a customer who had accidentally entered the shop when they should have been outside. It is a confusing time for everyone at the moment and visitors are going to sometimes make mistakes. A gentle, polite reminder to wait outside rather than a sharp admonishment would have been better and more welcoming.

Going through Wimborne Minster we wanted a quick snack, the cafe was full but they were very obliging finding us a space, the staff were friendly & helpful & the food & drinks offered were good, this was not cheap but still reasonable for the area.

Had a really nice breakfast this morning in this lovely restaurant in Wimborne. Simple food presented beautifully, and really tasty.

Monty Python Cheese sketchWent into this place at 3pm, to be fair the woman running this place said up front the kitchen was closed.So, I attempted to order from the slimline menu when the server arrived.I’ll have a sausage roll - we haven’t got anyI’ll have a cheese scone- haven’t got any of those either.Ok, I’ll have a Scotch egg - we don’t sell scotch eggs. Why are they on the menu then?This rapidly deteriorated into the Python Cheese sketch ( look it up on YouTube)I said ok, I just want something savoury- Silence, no suggestions.I ended up with a cream tea, it was OK but not really what I wanted.In summary, decent enough place, limited availability of food stuffs and fairly uncommunicative staff.

A warm welcome to a super cosy atmosphere for an evening supper. We chose the Christmas set menu which was excellent quality and absolutely delicious. Definitely a must visit, we will be back!

Afternoon tea for three of us. Staff were friendly enough but sadly just not around very much. We were not the only customers who commented on this. The sandwich plates were not cleared when the scones were served. We had to stack the plates up ourselves. After two hours, it was almost closing time so we decided to not bother with the cake....

I have become lactose intolerant since my last review for this restaurant. It isn't always easy to find things to order. The choices here were varied and the cake was delicious. Also appreciate dogs being welcome. Thank you.

My wife and I had a lovely breakfast here. Smashed avocado for her, and pancakes for me. Absolutely delicious! Great service too. We will be back.

Christmas evening meal very disappointing, starters very bland, duck parfait came without any toast/breadThe Christmas dinner was like something you would get in a canteen, and the desserts were like something you would buy in bulk from Makro. £3.30 for a small can of beer is extortionate Its such a shame, but this isn't the right set up for evening dining,Should stay with what they do well: coffee, cake & light lunches.

We went for coffee and cake this morning. Ordered 2 americanos, one double shot, one single shot, and 2 cakes. Waited a long time then when the coffees finally came we asked which was the stronger one. There followed a Fawlty Towers conversation where the waitress said the coffees were both exactly the same but she could bring us a 3rd one (the same) if that's what we wanted. We said no thank you, we would like 2 coffees, 1 strong and 1 weak and she again offered a 3rd cup. Then she said they weren't trained to do different strengths of coffee. Eventually they took the coffees away and brought 2 more - claiming one was strong. By this time we were past caring so drank them. They then asked if there was anything else they could do for us and we had to remind them that we still hadn't had our cakes. When they arrived, they were foul - far too much sugar, and not as fresh as they should be This is such a shame - we had tried the cafe for breakfast a few months ago but had had to leave when we were told that they couldn't do breakfast because the chef hadn't arrived. This was at 9.30 on a Sunday morning, with full breakfasts advertised. We definitely won't risk going back a third time. Worst cafe in the whole area. And dirty windows - although it could have been a botched attempt at 'frosting'!

I always eat here when I go to Wimborne, and have reviewed it before but have to compliment the service today, which was above and beyond when they were supper-busy. Thank you!

Just fancied a cuppa and scone, friendly atmosphere, perfect scones, fresh and tasty. will definitely be back.

We have been here many times for lunch and the occasional afternoon tea and it's always a pleasure. The staff are always courteous and helpful and it has a nice view towards the Minster. The menu has plenty of choice on offer and there's a 'specials' board which includes some delicious cakes such as the usual brownie, treacle tart and of course the ubiquitous Dorset apple cake alongside some very different choices like lemon and blueberry, lime and courgette, we decided on the warm Dorset apple cake for dessert, delicious!

Popped in for sandwiches and coffee

Booked breakfast for 6 plus dog. Very dog friendly but if this isn't for you, then dogs are quite rightly, allowed downstairs only. Warm welcome and friendly service. Delicious breakfast enjoyed by all. Thank you. We'll be back.

Went to visit the Minster but a service was on so went to this tea room on the other side of the Green. Lovely proper English tea room with home made cakes. We both had cream scones, we prefer plain to fruit and some places only do fruit. Scones were delicious served warm, cream was lovely and thick. Hot chocolate was as hot as the coffee which is nice. Lovely setting and would highly recommend.

Sorry. Animals (in this instance - dogs) in a cafe, where food is offered for service, is not my 'cup of coffee'.

This is a nice traditional cafe on the green with a view of the Minster. I had a GF / DF slice of pecan and carrot cake. It was terribly sweet. And a cappuccino. Weak and really huge cup. All in all, very average.

Lovely little cafe worth waiting for a seat outside. Nicely presented and good friendly service. Had some gluten free stuff. Toilets just to the side what more could you want. A great place to rest your feet.

We were expecting great things, the restaurant was a lovely setting, staff very attentive but it just missed the mark unfortunately.

We decided to visit Wimborne on the way to Lyme Regis in Dorset. After a walking around the town we was looking for somewhere to have a snack. We found this wonderful cafe, No 9 on the Green. Well decorated and friendly staff, we ordered toasted sandwiches and a pot of tea for 2. The toasties were very yummy. If you visit No 9 on the Green, see if you can find Marmaduke a wooly mouse.

Nicely located facing the Minster. A variety of seating areas inside plus a patio with 6 tables outside.

My mum and sister visited for coffee on Saturday morning, having visited previously and enjoyed the experience. On this occasion however, they noticed that although the cafe wasn't busy, the table hadn't been cleared and there were dead flowers on it. It was a long time before the order was taken and an equally long time before the drinks were delivered: 2 coffees and a juice. Coffee was disappointing and the general ambience of the cafe seemed to have deteriorated. Not wishing to appear negative but thought you should be aware of this.

I had lunch here recently; goat's cheese, beetroot and rocket sourdough sandwich, followed by Dorset apple cake, both of which were yummy! The staff were friendly and the coffee was good too!

Lovely afternoon tea. Very good service, friendly staff. Would recommend.Food very nice although only 2 choices of sandwiches was slightly disappointing. Scones and cake, which we had to take home more than made up for this

A lovely little tea shop offering a nice variety of goodies. A proper English tea house, perfect for a break while you wander around the village or as a meet up with friends.

Just decided to go out for breakfast and what a breakfast nice hot well presented will go again with out saying thanks again

Went for lunch, I had the flatbread with avocado, feta and tomatoes. No way was that flatbread. I left some and mentioned it to the waiter when he cleared the plates. He said that he would tell the chef but then he didn’t come back to tell us what he said.

A cosy place to take refuge from the rain on a miserable afternoon in Wimborne where cold rain and leaden skies were in ugly contrast to the lovely spring days we'd enjoyed a few days earlier at the end of March.

Visited for afternoon tea. The range of cakes included almond and clementine which was gluten and dairy free (a treat for my wife who has to avoid both). The service was a little slow but very friendly and helpful.

I bought my Mother here for a belated mothers day lunch, (was working) and we had been here a few times over the years through various name changes but we always love this tea room. We didn't realise thst there should have been another menu on our table( found out by someone else ordering after we had, that wasn't on the specials board) so was going by the specials, we chose the quiche which turned out to be absolutely delicious although a little pricey! 2 quiche, a bottle of lager and a standard milkshake came to £25. But worth it for mum. And also the quiche. My Mum also has never been a mayonnaise fan due to vinegar, but she actually ate the potato salad and most of the coleslaw so it goes to show what brilliant food they do and how it's prepared . The negatives were we did wait a little for service I went to counter as I thought we were maybe supposed to order there as no one had come near us and also it gets very crowded and cramped downstairs 2 people had taken tables by the door so we couldn't get out without them having to move. We will definitely come again though and I do recommend as it is so quaint is in a lovely setting in Wimborne and food always good

Poor service and poor food for the evening , not impressed at all. Real shame , think better as a tea room during day , not enough staff either.

Six of us spent a most enjoyable evening with excellent food and service. We hope to return soon. It is only a small restaurant but it has a lovely atmosphere.

My family and I have been coming to this lovely cafe for years, and each visit has been great the food is tasty, and staff are friendly.
