About Josie's
Josie's is a cafe in Romsey, at 15 Market Pl, where tables cannot be booked and seating is first come, first served. Instead, guests join a virtual queue through the Dojo app, which texts them when a table is ready. The breakfast menu includes an American breakfast and avocado on toast, and the pancakes come in more than one version, including one with fruit. Coffee and milkshakes are on the drinks list. There is no separate gluten free menu, but dishes can be tailored to suit gluten free needs. Payment is made at the till rather than at the table. Dogs are welcome.

“I love this place. I went when it was fairly quiet and got a lovely spot outside. I had the pancakes with fruit and it was so delicious. I got 2 pancakes and was full to the brim. The coffee was great too.”

“Lovely food, qued using the dojo app for first time so we didn't have to stand and wait for a table first said 30 minutes then the time kept going up were meant to eat around 13.10 didn't sit for food till 2pm which was frustrating as had a daughter who struggles with mobility and a grandparent with me who again struggles standing and walking. Staff were helpful when i went and explained. However wasn't very keen when finshed eating as then had to que to pay at the till instead of table service.”
