Cafe Boscanova

If you happen to be in Boscombe, Café Boscanova is the place to stop for quality coffee (even for the pickiest of coffee drinkers!) & something to eat. Aside from coffee they serve freshly squeeze juices & smoothies. They have a good sized breakfast menu which is served all day long & a lunch menu from 11:30. They also have cakes & desserts up at the counter. Ingredients are fresh & some listed as organic. Menu prices are inexpensive & service was friendly & easy going. They do have wifi & local artwork on the walls which also gives Café Boscanova lots of character.

Lovely place, really friendly, great choice of veggie options. Always a treat to eat out here. I go back all the time!!!

Great food! Great surroundings! A lovely quirky café with bags of character.

In brief — Boscanova is the best place to eat in Boscombe.
The food they serve is absolutely wonderful, and never before have I seen a café which caters for so many different diets without any hassle (there’s no «Please ask if you want us to take meat/​nuts/​bread out of any meal). The food is of great quality, and obviously very fresh.
The standouts for me are obvious: The sidewalk breakfast is a brilliant way to start off the day, and it’s served all day on Sundays. And then there are the smoothies. They change every day, but are always utterly awesome… and so fresh, that they’re still piles of fruit when you walk in the door. It’s worth popping in for one if you’re anywhere near Boscombe town centre (you can take away too!)
The atmosphere is good inside, everyone seems really friendly. And despite the impressions you may get from the bohemian-​hippy-​style ethos of the menu, Boscanova manages to avoid falling into the trap of being holier-​than-​thou, up-​itself as other similar cafes do.

An excellent atmosphere, during my visit there was life band playing outside it.
Lovely works of art all round the walls of the café.
The chocolate brownie was very nice, despite the rather plain hot chocolate I had with it, you need to have cream & marshmallows to make it sweet enough.
Other wise I’m really impressed, it get’s my thumbs up.

Great little café run by two great guys. Lovely homemade cakes and sidewalk breakfast wonderful!

This used to be café boogaloo. It is a Brilliant Café! the staff are really nice — the food is gorgeous and yet healthy (but you wouldnt know it).
They also do wheat free food (just ask — btw there pancakes are gorgeous) and food for veggies/​vegans (this place is much nicer than the vegetarian café over the road)
The décor is cool, funky and laidback and it is generally a nice environment to relax and chill out.
They also sometimes sell tickets for events at the opera house and the notice board outside sometimes has good offers so look out for those.

A lovely breezy café that opens out onto Boscombe high street, tables and chairs placed amongst the trees on the street.
Gorgeous food, though it is not cheap, (dishes around 8pound, all freshly made on the premises. Fry-​ups, sandwiches, aubergine based main courses, pancakes and a wide selection of drinks. Lots of good coffees served in large mugs, as well as choc based and fresh fruit smoothies of the day.
Inside it’s homely, large wooden tables with seats in the window. Art is dotted about the walls, and is available to buy. Super friendly staff, and a lovely way to spend a few hours catching up with a mate.
Open Sundays.
