The Best Cafes in Hampshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Amazing breakfast at Josie’s in Winchester! The place is super popular, and we had to wait for a table, but it was absolutely worth it. The atmosphere was lively, the service was great, and the food was fantastic. I had the breakfast pancakes, and they were incredible! Everything about our visit was spot on—highly recommend if you’re in the area! 🥞☕

Took my nephew for for a lovely lunch treat and was not disappointed. Food was excellent, staff were fantastic! Definitely worth every penny. Cant wait to come back and try the waffles 🥰😋

Came for the pancake week specials, was not disappointed. I got a steak and egg 2 stack anf my partner got a buffalo chicken 1 stack. All delicious but she was the dinner winner. We shared the veggie tots which were lush as always.

After visiting Josie’s in Winchester town centre now on multiple occasions I can assure anyone who goes an outstanding brunch selection! The menu is fantastic, not only are there multiple options for breakfast/all day brunch but everything is very reasonably priced for the quality and portions provided. I’d highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking for a great local brunch spot, I’m not directly for the area but I happily travel for places like this. The location of this particular cafe js slightly out the way of the town centre, however you will find there is normally a 30-45 minute wait time for a table (Approx for 2 people) which does allow plenty of opportunity to enjoy a walk in Winchester town centre while you wait!

Me & my husband had a lovely afternoon tea, the cafe was friendly and relaxing. We had a great time & can’t wait to visit again to try the rest of the menu! 😄 we also visited the charity shop which was great, I bought a lovely tin with the late Queen on when she was young, it’s beautiful :)

First time in this lovely coffee and charity shop, was actually quite blown away as to how nice and friendly the staff was…. I took my daughter and grandson Oakley ( he had so many cuddles) staff offered to hold him so my daughters lunch didn’t go cold 😊, will definitely go back 😊.

If you want an excellent afternoon tea, Enham charity shop is the place to go. Lovely mini sandwiches, super scone with cream and jam + beautiful cream cakes all presented on an individual , pretty cake stand with as much tea / coffee as you like. It seemed nothing is too much trouble as Ruth planned dairy free, gluten free and all allergies were considered at a very good price. We will be back.... the lunch girls! We miss you, Nicki.

Just had an afternoon tea here...... wonderful......yummy........ absolutely gorgeous way to spend time with friends & you have to charity shop afterwards to mooch around......you are treated the BEST......

Great place for a traditional English breakfast. Service was really nice, very clean. No complaints.

Myself and my partner were actually on our way to another café when we stumbled across Adore Café in the middle of a residential area. We decided to try it out as it was quite hot outside. The decor and atmosphere on the inside was fantastically relaxed and chill, as well as bright. Everything was clean and honesty it looked like this place had be built yesterday. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The selection on the menu is brilliant, from all day breakfast, to brunch, burgers paninis and also an amazing selection of sweet treats from sundaes to pancakes. Food prices were more than reasonable and our time here was far above our expectations. I'll definitely be back here and I think I'll be bringing some friends next time! Update: Me and my partner came back to Adore Cafe for a quick breakfast. Staff as usual were very friendly and helpful! Was a bit busier than last time we visited but still lots of space. We'll be coming back here again and again! :)

Lovely local cafe, serving proper cafe food at good value prices. Really enjoyed our breakfast. Friendly manager too!

This is a must visit. I went there for breakfast, great selection on the menu plus you can order additional items. Service was excellent as was the food. Good selection of both hot and cold drinks available

Lovely place to stay and have breakfast or lunch. 🥪 staff is very friendly. They also have outside area so you can go with your dog as well.Plus Romsey is beautiful area so you can have a nice walk too. 😊

Another great venue in Romsey. If you want an evening meal, go to The Old House at Home. If you want breakfast, come here. Such an epic menu. You've got your classics, you've got your sweet breakfasts and you've got your American breakfasts. For me, it had to be a milkshake and chicken and pancakes...which was very good, almost as good as the real thing in Kansas City. Staff were super friendly, and the prices were good too!

Food is always worth the wait to get in. You cannot book a table here so it's first come first served from what I can gather. The food is amazing here. The Christmas Turkey burger was so tasty and well worth getting as a limited time menu item! Brilliant service and attentive staff made for a great experience with such a large table of people. We didn't have a reduction in quality of service as a result of the larger group size.

I just wanted to say thank you to Lynette from the Chandlers Ford branch who was helping out the day that I was in Josies Romsey. She was so kind to me. She helped me secure the table at the window, and was altogether a lovely waitress. I was very impressed. And even though it was busy inside, she still took the time to do whatever she could to accommodate me and the cheese free meal that I wanted. At the end of the day, it is all about care and kindness combined with efficiency. Thank you Lynnette.

Great new coffee shop! Reasonable prices, good portions and nicely presented coffee! We don’t live in Winchester but when we’ll back we are definitely having a snack at Kavi!! The chicken bacon wrap is superb!

Great atmosphere, especially in the back room where you can see the kitchen. Golden hot chocolate was great - sweet honeycomb flavour, light on the chocolate. French toast is sweet, light, and well presented - portion is generous, enough for 2 easily! Bacon sandwich was more like a pork roll with the size, not the normal rashers. All the staff were very friendly. Definitely coming back soon!

This place is amazing! It's new to Winchester having only been open for a couple of month, me and the family popped in for a late breakfast purely out of curiosity. It didn't disappoint! The food is full of flavor, it's fresh, locally sourced, well presented and the portion sizes are plentiful. We had the kavi breakfast wrap, the bacon french toast, the full English and the Bacon roll with a fried egg. Will definitely go back!

We stopped at Kavi Coffee while waiting for a breakfast table elsewhere, and it was a great find! The coffee was excellent ... rich, smooth, and just what we needed for a short stop. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere. Would definitely visit again! ☕

My daughter, my friends and I had afternoon tea today. Three of us are vegetarian and there was a lovely selection of sandwiches, including a Coronation chickpea, which was delicious. There was a good selection of cakes and the scones (homemade) were lovely. There was a generous amount served. The service was really friendly. I will definitely go again.

We have just had the most fantastic afternoon tea experience at The Tea Room. Best vegetarian sandwiches and savouries that we’ve had. The scones were warm with a crunchy exterior and moist inside. The cakes were indulgent and just the perfect ending to the tea. All served on vintage china plates. The service was perfect and the members of staff so friendly. Thank you ladies for such a special afternoon. We will definitely be back ❤️❤️

When towns are struggling with footfall because of shops closing, it is always nice to find a hidden gem. The Tea Room at Andover is definitely worth a visit. This lovely light and airy Tea room is so welcoming, every detail has been well thought out. Obviously jacket potatoes must be popular by alot. But we had cream tea which was lovely. The staff are all friendly, they will even sing to you if it's your birthday. Nice to find out it's a family business. Highly recommend.

I have not actually had tea here, but orders a Victoria Sponge for my husbands 75th birthday on 7/12/24. The cake was beautiful and well worth the money.

Super cozy atmosphere and friendly staff was good enough for 5 star but the coffee and pastry we had was delightful too. Highly recommended.

I had the most amazing experience here this morning, I don’t think I’ve found another place like it in Winchester. The food is beautifully presented and full of flavours, the drinks are unique with the cacaos and mushroom blends (not to mention delicious) lastly the service is on point! Its warm, relaxed atmosphere made me want to stay all day. It’s got an alternative feel to the place with all the tropical plants and vibe. I almost felt like I’d escaped the dreary UK and could have been in Costa Rica! Photos of before and after! Thank you team Røst 🫶

I had popped by here in passing and thought it was a sweet little coffee shop. I enjoyed their drinks they had an interesting depth of flavour. However this gem really shinned when I stopped by for brunch, I ordered the Turkish eggs that came with a twist of local honey. This dish was amazing, it had different hits of favourite in each mouthful and was both creamy and rich. I would 100% come back and eat here again. Hats off to your fabulous chef for doing such amazing work especially in such a small space! They have a good range of options for Vegetarian/Vegan.

Hidden treasure of Winchester! Outstandingly good Cacao and coffee. Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Grabbed a sandwich on a whim and it was fantastic. Really lovely change from the boring bits you get in chain shops!

Popped into Moon Roast yesterday to pick some bits up and honestly, I think it’s the best customer service I’ve ever had. They were so knowledgeable and helpful with recommending what type of coffee to get, they wrapped everything up beautifully for me and was just a fantastic vibe and experience. Thanks guys x

Nice discovery after recommendation by friends. Lovely location on a farm in the Hampshire countryside. Tasty cup of takeaway Sumatran coffee. Will return to try out the country walks signposted around

I had a velvetiser from a famous company for Christmas, and fell in love with their white chocolate. However it worked out at nearly £1.50 a cup !! I searched on line and found moon roast white hot chocolate flakes. Wow, it is absolutely delicious, so tasty and works really well in my Velvetiser. It works out at 56p a cup. I will be buying from Moon roast every time 🙂🙂♥️

The Yard at Moon Roast is an idyllic spot to have a coffee or light meal outside on a Summers day. Plenty of tables inside too. Nice staff and a Hampshire farm hipster feel, the house-roasted coffee is wonderful, and the cakes delicious. I had smoked trout on toast … delicious. Really cycle friendly. A very special place.

Excellent cafe for big cooked breakfast, at a good price. Friendly staff, great service, loads of parking. My go to place for a breakfasty treat!

I recently booked this venue for my partner’s 30th birthday, and it was amazing! This is one of our favourite spots to enjoy coffee together, so it felt like the perfect place to celebrate the occasion. From the moment we arrived, the staff were absolutely incredible. Frankie and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything ran seamlessly. We had an outside caterer for the food, but the staff took charge of organising and presenting it perfectly, making sure everything was on time, and making sure all of our guests, including those with allergies, were well taken care of. The atmosphere was fantastic- full of energy, warm, welcoming and it didn’t feel rushed or stressful. I kept checking in throughout the evening, but Frankie was absolutely wonderful in reassuring me that everything was under control and telling me that I should enjoy the celebration without a worry, which is what I did. Our guests had a wonderful time, and I’ve received nothing but positive feedback about the venue, the staff and the overall experience. I would highly recommend this place for any event - you won’t be disappointed. A huge thank you to Frankie and the team for making my partner’s birthday so special!

We booked the Yard for a private party on Saturday evening. The location is fantastic, the staff were efficient, attentive, and friendly, and we had a great evening. Thoroughly recommend it!

Wonderful! We went to Friday night's music evening and everything about the venue was just perfect - the music; the street food courtesy of Earth to Oven; indoor and outdoor seating which interconnects beautifully in one space, and an overall 'holiday' vibe in tastefully designed surroundings. We will definitely be back!
