We visited this lovely cafe for coffee whilst passing through on our way home from holiday in Devon. The cafe was busy when we arrived but the staff were very attentive. Despite being busy, the amazing waitress had noticed I was breastfeeding my 7week old baby and brought me over a glass of water before she had even taken our order. Thank you so much, as a breastfeeding mother that glass of water and kind gesture really means a lot. The coffee was great too, I wish we had time to stop and eat, the food looked delicious. Thank you! More...

Had a fantastic day with Matt foraging in the beautiful, if damp, Dorset countryside. Learnt loads and enjoyed Matt’s company and his approach to using seasonal and local produce. Then had a lovely light lunch including a beautiful Orzo risotto with wild garlic pesto. Always great to meet someone who believes passionately about doing it right and supporting local suppliers. Thanks for a great day More...

Went to meet Kate atBridal Reloved HQ in August & popped to Bramble Cafe for a coffee, was beguiled by 5he scones but made the mistake of not having one & was then haunted by them the whole six hour home. Came back last week & lunch at Bramble Cafe was a must, freshly baked scones just from the oven lived up to all the expectations & longings, absolutely dreamy & well worth the wait, can’t recommend highly enough, fabulous atmosphere, great surroundings, will be my regular haunt on every visit to Bridal Reloved HQ, thanks guys for an amazing scone More...

Excellent Sunday lunch. Slow roasted lamb, cooked beautifully. Generous portions of roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese and green veg, with a large Yorkshire pud to top it off. Plenty of gravy too! Desert was hot chocolate brownie, with salted caramel sauce, and ice cream. One of the best deserts I have had in a long time. Service is always friendly and efficient, even at busy times. Thoroughly recommend:-) More...

We attended for an evening meal and the service and food were excellent. It is fantastic to have former Masterchef winner Matt Follas hosting an establishment in Dorchester. Not because he is a celeb but because he can cook. A great range of locally sourced foods presented in style and bursting with flavour. Allergies? No Problem. All dietary restrictions can be catered for on request. We had gluten free and sugar free in our party but since everything is cooked fresh it is no problem. Seating is limited to 25 heads so book early to avoid disappointment. More...
