“ What an absolute gem of a place. Friendly welcome, quality breakfast. A real treat. I will definitely go put of my way to eat there if I am anywhere near by. The bubble was scrummy. Thankyou. ”
“ We had an amazing breakfast here this morning! What a gem we found! The portion sizes were huge, prices really really reasonable with lots of choice, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. It was clearly a popular breakfast spot, really bustling and busy and we can see why. Would definitely recommend booking a table in advance, but they also do takeaway options too. 10/10, we'll definitely be back! Thankyou guys, Max xx ”
“ Visited for brunch 15/04/23. It was busy but managed to get a table, which was wiped down for us as we arrived. We were made to feel very welcome and the chap who took our order was friendly and helpful. We ordered couple of breakfasts, both made fresh and really tasty, the Deckhand breakfast really is something different! Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would come again. If I could give 6 stars, I would! :) ”

“ What a lovely cafe. Food was lovely and reasonably priced, ditto for the drinks. Plenty of options/combos for Breakfast. We saw a sign that says a kids menu is basically 'build your own breakfast' so you can build it for kids based on their preferences. The owner (I think?) was very friendly to everyone and seemed to know many people's names, making it feel like a proper community place. We luckily got the last free table of the morning, others had been booked. Thoroughly recommended eating here for Breakfast and a Coffee/Tea ”
“ I had a wonderful experience at The Fisherman's Cafe in Poole Old Town! The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully cooked and presented with care. The breakfast menu offers a traditional variety of options. Every bite was delightful! The staff were incredibly lovely, kind, attentive, and always willing to help, which made the experience even better. Noticed signs dotted about saying dogs are welcome which is great for both locals and those visiting the area with pets in holiday. The owners thoughtfulness really stood out! Overall, The Fisherman's Cafe is a gem in Old Town Poole! Great food, excellent service, and a friendly and fab atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit and especially when visiting Poole Quay. The butcher quality sausages alone are worth coming back for. Highly recommended! Plus... They also have vegetarian options. ”
