  “We had such a lovely time at Boscanova. Everything felt warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived, and it made the whole experience really enjoyable. The pancakes with Nutella and strawberries were absolutely delicious — fresh, sweet, and just the right treat. The chai latte was also really good, full of flavour and really comforting. What made the visit even better was how friendly and caring the staff were. They made us feel very well looked after throughout our visit, which made a big difference. It was also so nice that my friend could bring her dog with her, and everyone welcomed us both so kindly. It really means a lot to go to a place that is genuinely dog-friendly and makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. We would definitely be happy to come back again.”

  “Visiting Bournmouth for a weekend and seen it was bustling one morning so popped in for breakfast and a coffee. Both were really good. Very nice atmosphere and friendly staff. All the food options looked good. I has a smoothie bowl which was amazing!”

  “Lovely cafe, very friendly staff, I opted for the Açai smoothie bowl, the granola was soooo good but I am used to thicker açai bowls so this was a bit thin for my preference. The special french toast sounded brilliant, if I was local I would definitely come back.”

  “What a great find! I was visiting Bournemouth with my family and wanted somewhere that wasn’t a typical chain or another greasy spoon — something a little more wholesome and vibrant. We came across Boscanova and it was exactly what we were looking for. Even though we were in a bit of a rush, the team couldn’t have been more accommodating. The service was friendly, efficient and genuinely warm. We ordered the Avo on Toast and the Smoothie Bowl, both beautifully presented and full of fresh flavours — you could tell everything was made to order. My kids were delighted with their hot chocolate loaded with all the extras, and the coffee was spot on too. Boscanova has that perfect local café vibe — relaxed, creative, and full of personality. If you’re in Bournemouth and want something healthy, delicious, and made with care, this is an absolute must-visit.”

  “Excellent experience and food. We ordered the fat American pancakes and a full english and 2 mochas. The full english was packed, generous serving, superb butcher sausage and sourdough bread, the rest on the plate were ok.. would recommend. The pancakes were thick and dense (to my liking) although I would prefer if they serve it with more of that maple butter, so if you are on a sweeter side additional maple syrup would be recommended. Coffees are excellent. The place is cozy, be prepared to wait when it's full, don't think they offer advance reservations but do take your number to call when a table is free. Wait is worth it.”

  “Great bustling place, easy to sit and chat away and you don't feel rushed by the attentive staff. Have visited twice and had to have pancakes both times!!! They're delicious. This time we had the specials - Tiramisu and Lemon Meringue. Last time I had the plain with the maple butter - all delicious!!”
