Urban Reef

Very nice cafe. went for lunch on a lovely sunny thursday so not too busy. the staff were all very friendly and have great service. good to be able to see the chefs working, gives a lot of confidence in the did quality. both meals were very good, freshly cooked and tasty. very dog friendly providing not only water but beds too!

Much better than a couple of years ago. previously, the service was non existent. now, a well oiled sewing machine. one no longer feels like a pain in the behind for purchasing food. much, much better. i will visit again as long as it remains this good.

We always love coming down to bournemouth and there was not a single trip without urban reef! food is always fantastic! staff lovely and helpful! we don't know any other place in london or elsewhere, that serves such a great quality oysters too! the only thing, that surprised us in funny way this time- when we started ordering (mind you, when we are going out, we are heavy eaters:), new waitress was trying to convince us to order less, so we don't over eat! ha ha, thank you for looking after our health, but it would be better for your business, if we do the other way round...:)) really recommend! especially first floor for more special ambience!

Had a very lovely cappuccino while gazing out at sea views. excellent service. food looked great - couldn't stop that long and was rather jealous!

Second visit & absolutely perfect, gorgeous halloumi salad and king prawn baguette. service was absolutely perfect and the staff are amazing and friendly and the food is always gorgeous fresh. amazing service even though there was a minor hiccup, you can not fault this place. amazing fresh food, the favours amazing, fresh ingredients beautifully presented and served with love and passion. mistakes can be made & i always feel it’s how it’s handled that makes the difference and these operators were pros truly appreciated the amazing breakfast and service and the whole experience was great x
