Wistmans in Bournemouth

Fantastic food, great selection on the menu, brilliant service, terrific ambience. Strongly recommend!!

Great coffee and nice selection of cakes. Staff have always been very welcoming.

Just the best coffee, staff and food in the area with fair prices.

This is the best food.. some new to try

Trio empanadas is absolutely delicious!!! Highly recommend!!

We've visited this café a number of times and it's always a lovely experience. The food is of a high quality and delicious. Also they serve wonderful smoothies and milkshakes. We particularly enjoy the traditional Venezuelan food. Service is exceptionally friendly with a relaxed vibe.

Best coffee in town, very creamy and always the same . Great service and good food as well . Highly recommend

Went in for lunch today and everything we ate was so tasty. The staff were so happy and helpful. The cakes are so good too. Will happily come back.

Fabulous cafe with excellent range of food and drinks. As well as all you would expect from a cafe, it has South American food available which makes it a stand out worth visiting. The seats are comfortable and diverse art on the walls for purchase.

Amazing! Very comfy coffee shop, the empanadas are amazing, the three milks cake is really good, fresh and homemade, will definitely come back in my next holidays. Gracias chicos espectacular todo!

We have gone a couple of times, this time we ordered a bagel and a couple of smoothies! All the staff were so nice and very friendly!

We visited this place with my bf for breakfast. They did not have in the menu scrambled eggs, but they kindly agreed to cook😊your toasts are lovely and I enjoyed my breakfast a lot. We got a latte with nice flower picture. Good luck with your business guys💗

Lovely little cafe. Lovely breakfast. Dog friendly Would defo recommend a visit!!

I go here regularly with my family, usually just for a coffee but often for breakfast/lunch as well. The food is consistently good and offers a variety of excellent choices. Friendly and efficient staff and very sensible prices.

Excellent moist banana cake and a ample piece as well. Delicious coffee. Love the friendly service and movie vibe of this place. Being a huge film fan and having played a few monsters myself this place is a taste of home. 😂 I am a product of Hollywood! You’ll like the comfort of being here…Like sitting in a nice study❣️

Lovely nice people excellent all round.

Omg cakes and toast was just sooo good! Recommended for sure! Brownies or carrot cake are a must😋

Always good service and the cakes are gorgeous.

Lovely service, great food and the tea is superb too!

Really tasty food, not overly expensive. There are some Really different items on the money, such as boiled egg and toast soldiers...

Have been here a few times and not had an issue but today I walked in and a lady waa behind me and I was waiting at the counter to be served by this young man and he looked straight at me and then ignored me and proceeded to take the order off the lady to the side of me who I was infront off , I van only think it was because she spoke his laugage and then the young guy looked at me as he was taking her order and said are u being served, terrible service and I said no because u decided to serve the lady behind me instead of me , no apology given too me. I will take my money else were from now on. If your going to run a business in this country then you should understand how to treat your customers better in the future. Funny how all the positive comments get feedback but my negative comment doesn't, sad 😢 just goes to show these company don't really care , just want your hard earned money

The best pies in Bournemouth... a place to enjoy a good breakfast

First time using this lovely quirky cafe. Very impressed with the artwork decor and very friendly staff. We had the pizza toast which was delicious. I ordered tea which came in a teapot with a knitted cosy, I loved that touch. Plenty of nice comfy seating. Will certainly use again when in the area. Thank you.

Excellent service food was good I would definitely go back there again

Sat 22nd Oct 2022 - The Coffee and service excellent, so good i went twice today !!!! Thanks Julian

My favourite cafe in Bournemouth. Lovely staff, comfy armchairs, delicious coffee - especially the winter spice latte ❤️

Very nice coffee and service the price very good comfortable as well. Will go again..

I try to come every day, the coffee and what they offer are excellent, as well as the service, they are very friendly and always willing to please customers.

I'm stuck at home with covid, feeling sorry for myself and very weak, but thank you Wistmans for the prompt delivery of the most delicious beef patty burger and other goodies. They were so delicious and cheered me up no end 😋👍

Really kind staff and dillioush food great service

Comfortable, very arty ambience. Good coffee, quality foodstuffs at reasonable cost by todays standards.

Very quirky CAFE, welcoming, lovely food, nice and clean, very sensible prices for quality decent size coffee and cake, had a great toasty it makes such a change from these people who charge a fortune but don’t deliver .

Great breakfast, ate here both mornings while we were in Bournemouth

Need to upgrade the seating very old sofas and Chesterfield chairs past there best and take up so much room. Good service and menu.

Bought lunch for myself and a friend Coffee was lovely tuna toasted sandwiches were lovely Chocolate walnut brownies I would have paid double Very nice food and pleasant people

I love the London Fog drink and the carrot cake is my favourite! Delicious savoury food too, a really great place!

Lovely tea, great food and superb cakes! And best of all, the standards are constantly high! 👌

Great customer service and a really good selection of pop culture art pieces. I walked away with 3 A3 portraits. I’d visit here again when I can. The food was great! Try the pizza toast.

Popped in for a coffee. Excellent coffee it was too at a good price. Lovely interior and friendly staff.

One of the most beautiful cafés in all of Bournemouth accompanied by a well mannered and kind staff. If you're looking for a good pick-me-up brew or a delicious cake or cookie, this is the place to be. Don't skip on the tips, they deserve it.

Great toasted sandwich and coffee, lovely service too, decor eclectic and arty , will definitely visit again

Lovely staff, great lunch options, delicious food and lots of drinks to choose from (if you like tea you'll love Wistmans). Dropped a star as there wasn't any baby change facilities, if you don't need that then Wistmans is a great cafe!

Out exploring with our dog when we popped in for our first visit. Instant warm welcome with water, biscuits and fuss for the dog. Staff really friendly and efficient. Lovely food, well presented and tasty. Enjoyed the range of art works on display whilst sitting back and relaxing in a comfortable setting.

Like this place, could be 5 stars but my coffee was lukewarm on drinking. Very friendly service and comfortable seats.

Staff always friendly. Good value for money and caters well for vegans.

The best palace in Bournemouth to drink a good cup of coffee. Good quality product and an excellent service. Totally recommended

Lovely friendly staff and yummy food 😊 great coffee and homemade cake too 😋 I often come in to work and feel very welcome. Reasonably priced too. My only suggestion would be to occasionally switch up the menu 😁

Love this place! I really like the atmosphere, they offer the best coffee and always show the best attitude to its customers. This is a good place to study/work or chill with friends and family. Internet connection is very fast and is unlimited as well. If you're up for a fresh and well decorated place then this is a must to visit. I just want to keep coming back. Well done guys! Keep making great coffee!

This little cafe is so unique! Cozy and quiet, perfect for a lunch/brunch break. Delicious food, fresh and made to order, our sandwiches were really good and milkshakes are to die for! And excellent value for money. We'll definitely reserve again soon 😊

A really great cafe! The interior is really nice and unique! There are lots of really amazing hand drawn pictures for sale as well. I have been looking everywhere for a London fog latte and I finally found one here! It was amazing!

This is a vintage/quirky cafe on the high street but in a spot that is nicely out of the way from the footfall of Winton shoppers. It was quiet when we arrived (11 am weekday) and the staff were friendly/accommodating upon arrival. Table service is always a nice touch and listening to Luther Van Dross whilst we relaxed on their couch and looked at their wall art was awesome. The menu looked good and I ordered a vegan flapjack with a honeydew melon cooler - both were delicious. It came to around £8-9 for two drinks and two cakes, which is about the price you pay these days, if not a tad cheaper. This place provided good food, drink and service. I look forward to my next visit.

Great service, tasty food, competitive prices

The best coffee I have had in the UK

Really nice feel to this cafe - very relaxed with a great menu. Extensive range of teas and a fabulous Espresso. The Portobello mushroom burger is outstanding. All polished off with really attentive staff. See you soon.

Friendly atmosphere, good food, attentive staff.

The staff here are provide a friendly atmosphere, which is complimented by the homey interior design. The art in display is impressive, and feels in place. The food is reasonably priced and well made from what I've tasted (best carrot cake I've had in a long time) and the drinks are really good too. The coffee is different from what I expect from most cafés in the area, and has a uniquely vegetal taste, which is made stronger by the addition of oat milk. At first anything unfamiliar seems out of place but not I know what to expect I really like it. It's actually my favourite coffee on wimbourne road, and it's consistently served at a good temperature.

Nipped in on my work break and the cafe is lovely, really nice drawings on the wall. Very talented and the grub was lovely too!

I certainly don't intend to visit this cafe whilst they encourage their delivery drivers to park outside on the pavement. That and their tables and chairs leave no safe space for visually impaired or disabled people.

Incredible little dog friendly cafe, amazing food, great service and incredible art/sketches available to buy. Will 100% be back soon and think we've found our new regular favourite! Really unique and quirky!

very friendly cafe with beautiful artwork...and good menu

i was one of the first customers i think when this cafe opened on deliveroo, and i remember thinking then wow - won't be long before these guys take off. such good food!! been back a few times since. everything is top notch, top quality. my fave is the blt with garlic sauce and the carrot cake. simple food perfectly done. keep it up :)) -- only wish i could take a pic of the food unfortunately always end up eating it before i get chance lol.

Best coffee in Winton! Friendly, clean, efficient and fabulous cakes and coffees!

This place has the best 'tree milk cake' best known as 'tres leches' in town. The coffee was exceptionally good as well and I also tried the Victoria sponge with lemon drizzle which was amazing! It's a family run business and I got to speak to the owners, they are so welcoming and helpful. I'm so glad they have been able to keep the business running during lockdown for takeaways. Next time I need to try their burgers and smoothies which looked really good. I'll definitely be back soon!

Really pleasant staff, so friendly and welcoming. Great coffee and though I've never tried them the cakes look amazing. Sandwiches are delicious and great value for money. Thank you for staying open and serving amazing coffee in this lockdown, you've been life savers!!

Best carrot cake you can get plus great service

My visit was well overdue as I was already told the coffee grounds they use are out of this world. I can now say is the best coffee in town. They also have a good variety of cakes. I tried the Christmas cake and it was delicious, also the slices are very generous.I can't wait to go back to have their delicious coffee and try a different cake.Service is excellent and covid safe as they follow all the rules.

Lovely little café. Friendly service and relaxed atmosphere. Drinks were great especially as there were dairy milk free options. Food was really good too as were the cakes (we had 4....)!!! Also love that it's dog friendly and they have some fantastic artwork displayed on the walls which you can buy.

The place is good. Good service, food is excellent!! I ate 4 cakes, lucky me the gingerbread loaf was just out of the oven!!! Great relaxed ambient and, it is an art gallery, which we took the opportunity and bought a drawing for a Christmas present!Impressed with the Vegan Banana loaf and a great selections of alternative milks.An OMG!!! The London Fog and the Winter Spiced Latte are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!Dog friendly!!P.S. pictures are for what my girlfriend and I ate!

Wistmans kindly baked a delicious carrot cake for my partners birthday. It looked and taste amazing, and they were kind enough to leave a little birthday message inside. Thank you guys!

Really good, friendly service and the coffee here is really excellent. Vegan milk/cake options available. The artwork surrounding the seating area makes for a really lovely atmosphere too.

This is a lovely alternative cafe with exceptional food. We have been there a couple of times and each time walked away with a smile on our face. The Tres Leche cake tastes amazing, and is a must to try. They are also offering a takeaway services during lockdown, which means we can enjoy our favourite dishes at home.

Decent cheap food & coffee and friendly staff!

Since Ronnie and partner took over the quality has soared. Friendly to vegans and great coffee. Prices are very good and service is always friendly.

I when with my friend just for a coffee, I had a Flat white that was amazing! . If you are looking for a good quality cup of coffee this is the place, Lovely staff and nice atmosphere. Definitely I’m going back . Next time I will try some cake as they looks delicious .

A very friendly run cafe. Interesting art work by different artists.

Great coffee and relaxing setting

Went on Thursday for the first time to meet a few friends and the coffee was excellent! Just like arnie, "I'll be back".

Dropped in here today and can really recommend the coffee and especially the carrot and walnut cake. We had to share one slice though because by 11 am they had sold out. Need to get there earlier next time.

Super friendly staff, amazing coffee!

Very good three milk cake (tres leches) and decent coffee ☕ 😋. Very happy to have found this place

Great place for food or just a coffee. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. The Mocha coffee in the town.

Popped in today with my partner for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The decor is quirky with the air of a Victorian parlour and lots of interesting art work on the walls. The menu had lots of traditional 'cafe' options alongside more interesting flavour combinations and heartier meals like burgers or homemade lasagne, all reasonably priced. We ordered the ham, cheese and apple toastie and tuna melt- both delicious and chai lattes, which were to die for! Service was also friendly and obliging :)

Lovely food ,Excellent friendly service

Lovely setting and great service along with best coffee I have had in a long time. It was a chance find while visiting bournemouth and their toasties and other items were really good. Very relaxed atmosphere and you can spend at least an hour enjoying your coffee, browsing through the art work and looking at the busy road in front. There is free on road parking for an hour nearby.

On point cappaccino. Nice foam.

What a gem of a cafe! Great food, very friendly staff, reasonably priced and such a relaxed atmosphere - after my 3rd visit within 2 weeks this has definitely become my favourite cafe in Bournemouth. I even got offered vegan cheese with the Portobello burger ☺️ 👍

Great local coffee, and great service

We went there for the first time today. Had a lovely smoothie and aubergine lasagna. The atmosphere is so calm and relaxing. The staff were polite and friendly. The art work on the walls is fascinating to look at. We will definitely be back.

First coffee break after lockdown re-opening. Great relaxed atmosphere, not busy - excellent vegan coconut cappuccino and banana loaf not too sweet. Very friendly staff and well situated - it's easier to find a parking space on this end than in the middle of Winton's busy high street. Selection could be a bit more varied for Vegans but that's more of a suggestion than complaint 😉. Prices are reasonable. Impress me with your food and I'll change it to 5 Stars! Either way, well worth a visit, and this will be my first choice in Winton.

Excellent hot sandwiches and lovely coffee. Fast and friendly service :) Thanks guys for the food and drinks late in the day during the lockdown!

My family and I visit this place recently and we must say what a wonderful experience. The service was excellent and the coffees and cakes (specially the carrot one) were delicious. Definitely we are coming back!

friendly place with comfy sofas and great food. Super quirky! Good environment and amazing designs!!

Glad to see them open again. New owners are as great as the old ones. Looking forward to come back

Love this place. Went for a coffee and tried the cakes...was delicious. Top coffee, will make it a morning weekday stop off and weekend treat.

Good coffee, excellent cake and friendly service. We stop for a quick coffee and stay for ages, excellent atmosphere. Hope to go back soon.

Seems like Wistmans is under new management. Very nice Italian/Venezuelan family and the guy there makes amazing amazing coffee. Best I’ve had in Bournemouth by far. Also has a tiramisu which was incredible. Brilliant little coffee shop, also had free WiFi. Cheers!

Wonderful place!!! Really nice people and attention, best coffees and delicious food!!!

Was recommended to go here by my sister. Really impressed with both food and service. We had chicken and salad sandwich, bacon, cranberry and brie toasted sandwich, portion sizes were very good. My only minor negative would be spotting a few cobwebs high up. Will definitely return.

Your tuna melt signature is superb and scrumptious 😋

Excellent coffee and food. Carrot cake is the best. Very eclectic atmosphere. Friendly staff. Well worth a visit.
