YC's Cafe in West Dorset - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Had some delicious food here for brunch , made by chef Maria. Was extremely tasty!

Patatas bravas breakfast - awesome 👌

Loved the eggs benedict, tasty with fantastic presentation! Cozy interior and fast service :)

Wasn’t expecting this little caffe tucked away in an obscure corner to deliver such genuine soul-warming fare. (Google also referred to this as Yadbury Caffe..which was a bit confusing)

My son enjoyed the sausage roll, I enjoyed the full English, great coffee too

Just stopped in for a coffee and bite to eat. Not the cheapest cafe but the food is fantastic. Well worth a visit :-)

Busy but usually served quickly. Excellent for brunch with an imaginative menu

Very nice breakfast in pleasant environment! Staff friendly.

As far as I am aware, all the food served is freshly prepared and cooked on the premises. I especially love the veggie breakfast bap 😋 and flapjacks!

Ordered the all-day breakfast along with coffee and eggs Benedict for my partner. While waiting for the food to arrive, a lady came over and said there was no black pudding available. So I ordered an extra mushroom instead. When the breakfast arrived it was missing any sausage. I enquired and was told there were no sausage available. Beans were only lukewarm. For over £25 in total, this was poor. With so much competition available to choose from and the cost of living, I won't be back.

Friendly staff. Very accommodating with dietary needs. Service was relatively quick considering it was a busy lunchtime. Would recommend.

I thought Vivo was a good breakfast, this place is amazing and the food equally.

Really good food lovely people running it bit difficult to find as you see dukes before you see yc but i would recommend

Great place for breakfast, reasonable prices and really good quality ingredients. The service was really friendly too so had a great time.

Great service, great food. Please don't tell everyone

Couldn't rate more highly. We had a power cut at our holiday site so came here early with our 4yo and 7mo sons for hot food and coffee! Warm welcome, buggy and child friendly. Staff were very accommodating when I asked for a scrambled eggs and toast portion for our littlest one - we received perfect finger food buttered soldiers and creamy eggs, both boys polished it all off. Food was delicious - hot, fresh and fairly priced. Bathrooms clean too even with spare nappies in the baby change! Clearly a team that consider families and care about the little details. Really made a difference to our otherwise stressful day. Thank you!

Excellent breakfast, reasonable price and not greasy.

Had eggs benedict with mushrooms macchiato . All for 10 pounds bargain . Fantastic staff . Well presented and could not have been more helpful near Dorchester South Station 2mins walking . Well worth a visit plenty of choice

Lovely little cafe with friendly staff, nice decor and good coffee! Dog friendly too which was great :)

Possibly the best breakfast/brunch we have had. Stunning to be honest.

Amazing breakfast, good service, we felt really looked after. Get there early - it’s very popular!

Fantastic hidden gem of a place and definitely the best cafe to eat in. Great food and reasonably priced. Really, for the quality you would expect to pay more. I look forward to my visits as I am never disappointed. Breakfast bap is awesome 👌

Most excellent in all departments.

Lovely little cafe.. recommend pigging out on a royal hot choc... fishfinger sandwich was also good.

Excellent cafe with friendly welcoming staff. Varied menu with well presented fresh food. So much better than the usual chain oulets. Decor is also interestingly different.

Went for a brunch after reading good reviews, very good service and pleasant staff but sadly breakfast bap disappointing, undercooked egg and overcooked bacon. Shame really as nice venue, maybe the cakes and afternoon tea are a better choice.

The pastries here were absolutely divine. The almond croissant was a favourite with my family. They also have a vegan selection which was a very pleasant suprise, worth visiting! :)

Friendly café serving delicious food and drinks. The hot chocolates are amazing! Great place for a brunch with a friend.

If I could I would give 0 stars. The food be it nice was ruined due to the fact I ask for a dairy free dish, as I have an allergy, and my meal contained dairy. Firstly when she bought my black americano over she bought milk and I said I don't take milk as I can't eat it which I had already said. She'd checked with the kitchen that the food was dairy free but when it arrived there was butter and so I asked is this dairy free butter, to which she answered yes. Within 10 minutes of eating it I felt like I was getting a reaction as I felt hot and needed the loo. I wasn't sure at first that it was dairy, but once I got up and left and walked to my car I realised it was definitely dairy. It has ruined my day, leaving me feeling very unwell. I will not be returning.

Excellent service as always and value for money.

Excellent service. The almond croissants are to die for. My favourite place for the moment.

Fabulous afternoon tea! The food was delicious and the settings were elegant. Service was lovely and always cheerful. 10/10

My wife and I enjoyed a delicious take out Valentine's dinner from YC's. Communication with the team was good and they were happy to be flexible in the menu choices. Pick up was a smoothly oiled machine. The meal package was really nicely balanced with generous portions, great tasting food and some proper instructions written for a non cooking man to clearly understand. I did anyway! 😂 Finally I thought the Valentine's meal take away was a good idea, provided a great service and was really good value for money. My wife was soooooo impressed with the surprise. I don't think I have expended all my 'credits' yet either.

Afternoon Tea was delicious! Such great value for money. Would highly recommend

Mexican night at YCs in Dorchester on a Wednesday & Saturday, you get one big amazing box of epic tasting food all for £6.95 you will not be disappointed, with super friendly family running the business, hats off guys. Head over to my insta page for more pictures and reviews... @dishesfromdevon

Great service. Had a mocha and a cruffin. Both were delicious. Such a great cafe. Highly recommend.

Lovely place. Great food and drink. Little cramped inside though they've done their best to keep Covid safe- and have track and trace by the door. You can eat outside but that's weather dependent as it isn't under cover. During my visit lots of older people (customers) who weren't wearing masks properly.

Unbelievably friendly staff, incredibly good food, huge portions, and for a very reasonable price. We went in there for Mexican night on Wednesday and returned again for a 2nd helping on Saturday. The only complaint is that they have now ruined Fajitas for me as I will struggle to find any Mexican food that compares to theirs.

We popped in after a recommendation, and oh boy ! Definitely not disappointed ! Food - incredible!!! , fresh made , fresh ingredients, incredible taste , great portion sizes and incredible price ! Staff - so friendly and happy, they made us feel so welcome. We shall be back as much as possible! The whole thing just made us feel so happy !!

Eggs Benedict - YC style, lovely flavours, great way to start the day.

Lovely food and service highly recommend

I cannot fault this place in any way. Delicious food, lovely staff and good value for money. Totally covid compliant. I rarely give five stars for anything, but YCs thoroughly deserve them.

Low key great value super staff been before will go again

Friendly staff, coffee was good and the food was ok. Just 4 stars is as the out side tables are not for eating as they are to small and uncomfortable to serve food.

A Dorchester must. The hot chocolate is to die for (and for those teetering on the edge of diabetes, beware ... it's highly addictive) and the pastries are fresh & yum-scrum. Service a delight ... and prices affordable ... Love this place.

Lovely cup of coffee and friendly staff

The staff are always welcoming, 1st class quality foods. Great for a coffee or lunch.

Always fantastic food - Mexican is THE best, lovely friendly service - would recommend without hesitation.

Helpful attentive knowledgeable,food was amazing.

Excellent service, food and coffee

On Wednesday 11 March I had arranged to meet my very good friend in your lovely cafe, to treat her to lunch. However the A35 was shut and she was extremely late. When we eventually had lunch we were treated so kindly and sympathetically that I felt I should let know you how much this was valued. Lovely scrummy food and lovely staff. Thank you very much

We had breakfast here this morning. Great hosts, very clean and fresh food. Very reasonable prices. My husband is very particular about his fried eggs. This place is the first place we have ever been that uses real butter and they deliver the fried eggs exactly the way he likes it. I had the croissant, she warmed it up for me and still was fresh and crusty not like some places where they stick it in the microwave and becomes soggy. Will definitely recommend it and next time we are in Dorchester will definitely pop in.

Food excellent, service excellent. xx

Friendly service and excellent food

Food was very good. Service friendly

Fantastic place to head to anytime of the day for a bite to eat. The service and quality of the food is always high. Just had a delicious turkey roll and mulled wine as an early Christmas treat. The brioche roll was full to bursting with all the trimmings. Great value too.

Great food and service to match. Thoroughly enjoyed our Mexican night. Couldn't choose between the 5 bean and beef chili so had both. Right choice. Nice cider and beer options as well. YC sets the benchmark for others to measure against.

Great food at reasonable prices. Friendly service

We called in on Thursday for lunch..we sat at a table...we were ignored..my daughter went up to the counter to check that it definitely was waitress service..they said they would come to us to take our order. No-one came! A huge party of 16 came in and the waitress went straight to them to take their order!! We walked out!!

Amazing Mexican night a must visit

What a lovely afternoon - last minute afternoon tea and prosecco booking for a birthday tea the food was plentiful and delicious. The staff were attentive. Will definately return and highly recommended

Fresh, tasty & great value lunch! Very friendly service too!

Great place for a coffee and fresh baked pasteries....😋

Great food and great value for money and service, cheeky banter to go with it 😎

Very friendly and great service. Lovely food. Wish I had known about this place sooner. Will be back

Was there tonight for an evening meal. The atmosphere is great, the service splendid, and the food amazing. The icing on the cake was a young man playing jazz on his guitar... VERY talented and just the right level for an enjoyable evening. Will definitely go there again.

Delicious food and friendly service

Great food and friendly staff and atmosphere

Great coffee and great food friendly staff what's not to like

Chilled evening, good food , & Blue Motion Jazz duo ... fabulous.

Delicious steak meal for two with wine £32. Really lovely.

Love coming to this little cafe. The taco night is also a favourite, it’s got a really chilled and friendly vibe. Staff are always helpful and welcoming

Lovely food and coffee. Friendly staff. Nice and relaxing atmosphere.

Went to YC's cafe for lunch today,Sunday 13th Jan 2019,it was delicious with really good sized portions,however as we had also had a big breakfast at home that morning, we asked the waitress if we could take home the half a baguette each that we couldn't manage and she kindly packed them into a box to take home. My husband had mentioned it was my birthday so imagine our delight when we opened the box later that evening to find a lovely little chocolate cake inside! A really nice touch and very much appreciated . Thankyou also to the waitress who served us,not sure of her name but think it was Laura,very very good customer service. We will return !.

Delicious food. Friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere.

Smart place with a good menu. Coffee shop by day and restaurant by night. Good selection of cakes and breakfast options. Seats are a little uncomfortable but that's the only minor improvement I could find.

Amazing. What a great evening and such wonderful food and lovely staff. We've booked to go again for next month. Well done, very original x

Great food, wine and staff coupled with amazing patisserie section 👍

Fantastic customer service and dietary/allergy knowledge.

Lovely small local restaurant with very friendly and attentive service. Has a great steak and wine deal and good food theme nights that are very good value and popular. Good for tea and cake too!

Slow service, and didn't enjoy the cinnamon French toast very dry and not good presentation

Service was great! Lovely place, would definitely come back

Delicious cheese scone and friendly service!

Nice spot. Good coffee and pastries. Hot food not so great unfortunately

Coffee stop on Saturday.. poor Americano.. it simply wasn't an Americano.. coloured water . Friend asked for a particular style of coffee a cortado.. young assistant said yes very positively and then came to ask what flavour.. obviously not talking about the same thing. Decided on expresso with hot milk.. coffee arrived eventually .. with no milk.. had a deadline to meet so not time to pursue. Customer service in need of improvement before I return I think. I have been there before and mentioned the state of the coffee then.. though did have a nice breakfast.. so definitely not a coffee stop for me or to take friends to!

Lovely yummy food and nice atmosphere.

A really nice place for a relaxed Sunday breakfast, great coffees, and a lovely team. Sadly the only thing was the sausages were the only letdown, pink sticks without texture or flavour.

Great food but could do with some more space.

Excellent food. The hot chocolate is a meal in itself.

We only had drinks, but the food menu looked very good. Quirky and different.

Food brilliant I had the crab and how nice it was to have such a pleasent wait it Makes a difference

Lovely food, great service highly recommended

Delicious soup of the day, mushroom and herb, with home made bread. Very good, but allow plenty of time as food takes quite a long time to appear and it was not busy. Worth the wait though if you do have the time.

Great place for tea coffee and food A+

Superb place for a lunch....excellent food with personable young staff. A1

Always super and different food

Beautiful food and impeccable service

Fantastic food and friendly staff. Cheese souffle is to die for.

A great find. One of the nicest lunches we have had. Will definitely return and recommend.

Food amazing. Quite compact. Service fantastic. Utterly recommend
