Quick info
About Café Octagon
At 4 Pummery Sq in Dorchester, Café Octagon is a cafe serving breakfast and sandwiches through the day. Dogs are welcome alongside their owners, so walkers can stop in without leaving a pet outside. The kitchen also puts on a Sunday brunch and lunch service. Beyond the day-to-day cafe trade, the team takes on catering work, and the space doubles as a venue for events, which gives groups somewhere to gather for a booking rather than a standard table.

Customer Review Summary
Sunday brunch and lunch draw the warmest notes, one visitor bringing family and leaving satisfied, another praising an omelette. Several credit the kitchen for food that is plentiful, well presented and fairly priced, cheap but not cheap quality, as one puts it. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly and attentive, and the room is called lovely and airy. One reviewer found the coffee not the best in town.
