“Fabulous! One of the best coffee stops for cyclists in this corner of Dorset. We're always made very welcome. Great service, great coffee and a lovely selection of food. Great coffee and pastries. A lovely friendly atmosphere, I keep meaning to visit when I'm not on a bike.”

Brilliant little cafe in the heart of the beautiful Dorset countryside. Magnificent views. Super friendly staff, lovely food, warm welcomes, and thoughtful touches abound. Tried the spinach and ricotta pastry which was very good.

We came here for breakfast for my mum's birthday and it did not disappoint! The ingredients are of the highest quality, everything was cooked perfectly and the coffee was great. We were a table of 7 adults and a highchair, and the service was incredibly friendly and professional. The outdoor tables with a view were a perfect way to finish our morning with a coffee and a cannoli. Thank you so much for your hospitality, we look forward to returning soon!

Popped in for Brunch with 2 friends on a Friday afternoon. Fantastic and friendly service, food was amazing and a great selection of drinks. We sat outside as the sun was shining and it was truly a lovely place to be. Will definitely be going back and would recommend to anyone to go and try.

“An absolutely brilliant cafe with delicious fresh food, friendly staff and very reasonable prices! The South African cuisine was one I had not tried before, but it was presented brilliantly to me with the wide array of inventive yet authentic dishes on offer. The coffee was also brilliant and the cakes were delicious.”

“Yalbury Cottage is a place where excellence, friendliness, and quality come together seamlessly. As someone who loves travelling and exploring new cities and places, I have stayed in numerous accommodations, but none compare to Yalbury Cottage. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and look forward to returning to the area. The staff at Yalbury Cottage consistently went out of their way to be friendly and did everything possible to ensure our stay was exceptional. The room exceeded my expectations significantly, with its stunning and unique view. We truly felt as if we were at home, but in a setting with beautiful new scenery. Situated in Dorchester, Yalbury Cottage offers a perfect base to explore the area and nearby cities such as Weymouth. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, have recommended this place to others, and will continue to do so. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and everything was spotlessly and well-organised. Additionally, the thoughtful touch of leaving brownies in our room upon arrival exemplifies their dedication to Yalbury Cottage and their commitment to providing each guest with an exceptional experience. I personally can't wait to return to this charming cottage for another uniquely wonderful stay.”

“Been ordering their Sumatra Bourbon espresso beans among others for a while and very happy with the excellent quality. By chance on the way back from a trip to Sherborne Castle, I happened upon their premises. Very friendly and helpful, and bagged some up to order for me. Top notch all around.”

“The Coeliac Blogger: I'm in the top 10% of gluten free reviews and focus on options and quality. This lovely restaurant is one on the nicest places to eat, as a Coeliac, that cater for gluten free! They do a delicious gf warm Scone and a gluten free Breakfast! The only criticism is the gf bread isn't nice and vegan sausages! I'm not Vegan, there are plenty of normal sausages they are gluten free! Please get some better gf bread in. This place is still 5* eatery, relaxing location, plenty of seating outside and always very clear. A must visit for all, especially if you're Coeliac. 🙌”
