I have been before and enjoyed, thoroughly enjoyed their Full English Breakfast. The fried bread is amazing and everything is cooked beautifully. I've promised myself many times that I would try the roast dinner. Today, I did. The roast pork with all the (5 fresh)...vegetables and super crispy roast potatoes, fluffy on the inside, was sooooo delicious. I had a portion of wonderfully cheesy (homemade, as is all if it) cauliflower cheese (Just £1 a portion. What a bargain and worth much more). This made it even better. Now I'm torn between roast dinners and their breakfasts. Thank you Pauline (the amazing chef), I'll be back!More

I went with a friend and we both had an excellent, value for money, delicious meal. It's a really great place. I hope it stays like this, as good things often don't last.

We visited the English Rose yesterday for Sunday lunch, it was great value for money. There were 6 of use that had lunch, you can choose from a great selection of meats in 3 sizes, small, medium and large. I had a large lamb, there...was lots of roasted potatoes, 5 different vegetables and a great portion of lamb. I added yorkshire puddings to my lunch for an extra charge but well worth the price. After the lunch I had apple and raspberry crumble with ice cream which was delicious, you could have custard if you want it. Was great value, friendly service and food was excellent. Well worth a visit.More

Went here for breakfast and it was fantastic! I was absolutely ravenous, went for the 'mega breakfast' and was not disappointed. Very nice service from the friendly staff and owner. I will definitely go back next time I visit Bournemouth. Highly recommended!

Eat here if you fancy eating off old greasy plates and using dirty cutlery. Found a small piece of bacon underneath a pile of baked beans in my “veggie breakfast.” Disgusting. Very well hidden. This experience eating here has genuinely put me off eating out....Thankyou for putting meat in my vegetarian meal.More

After a beautiful morning in the park, my friend and I stumbled upon The English Rose Cafe. The smell of the fresh scones immediately caught our attention. We ordered the vegetarian English breakfast, pot of Early Gray Tea, and a warm scone. Best breakfast we’ve...had in a while!! Decorated with floral pillows and delicate tea plates, the atmosphere is uniquely comforting. We can’t wait to come back to this lovely spot!0More

A lovely warm welcome. Clean and tidy and a cafe style menu. We had a mega breakfast and a breakfast sandwich with hash brown, egg and bacon. Both ordered with a cappuccino. The food was delicious, good quality produce and cooked well. The coffee wasn’t...to our tastes, we prefer something stronger and more soecialised, but was nice enough. Would recommend.More
