Small but lovely cafe you can sit outside and eat by the river. Good value food and friendly service. There are no toilets on the premises but public loos are only a very short walk across the river. Well worth a visit for a cuppa and a bite to eat
Rating: 5 / 5
Coffee here is amazing. Some of the smoothest I have had in a while. Its a cash only cafe hidden away by the river. Very cute with great staff and fresh cooked food. Well worth seeking it out and any of the small specialist shops which surround it. Its busy and small so you might not get a seat inside on a cooler day.
Rating: 5 / 5
Lovely cafe and extremely reasonable breakfast was lovely and great to sit in the sunshine. Only minor criticism is change the sausages. The bacon was lovely quality but the sausages seem cheap. It’s so reasonable that would happily pay more for a better quality sausage. Rest of the breakfast included the toast is fab.

This place is our favourite place to dine. Everything's a winner. On a sunny day, it's location is by a running river. The food has always been amazing. And as for value and customer service, just brilliant. I can't fault it in any way.

We visit regularly as my son loves the full English breakfasts, which are great value at £8. The staff are friendly and it's always clean. It's pretty small, so there's sometimes a wait at peak times. Only other thing to note is that it's cash only but there's a free cash point close by.

Really 4.5, great tea, coffee, loved the toasties and atmosphere/decor. The half star deduction is because table tops needed a wipe, and there was cake and cutlery on the floor that needed sweeping.

Really lovely coffee and tasty selection of toasties, pasties and pastries. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The only thing I'd say is last time I visited, the seats were quite dirty...
Rating: 4 / 5
Good, consistent coffee and a nice chilled atmosphere with lots of space. A few times I’ve visited the tables haven’t been properly wiped and the floor in the bathroom was wet. Improving the cleaning standards would definitely make a difference!

Visited on our way home after visiting Lyme Regis. Wanted somewhere for cream teas and normal lunches. Beautiful polytunnel to eat in, perfect for a scattered cloudy day about 16 degrees, any warmer might be too hot in there! We had a scone and an awesome Budda bowl - just excellent! Worth the detour! Our sausage dog monty was also made very welcome

So chuffed to have found this place, on our break to the New Forest. Food and drinks were fairly priced and delicious - produce was local and amazing quality. And it is dog friendly too, so we were able to bring our young pooch too. Fab find.
Rating: 5 / 5
The staff were friendly and welcoming. There were a selection of tables both inside and out, and the menu offered a variety of foods and drinks, I wasn't expecting a place like this to offer a such a fantastic burger and chips, but they certainly did! Can honestly say that it's one of the best I've had in a long time. My wife had a salad, which was also delicious and filling. We sat for some time enjoying the atmosphere and reading our books, whilst helping ourselves to more tea and coffee. This is a lovely place to stop for food and drinks, and we would highly recommend!

The Wimborne Pig
26 West Borough, Wimborne Minster, Wimborne BH21 1NF, UK | Diner P: 01202 888565
Rating: 4.7 (496) Price Level:
We booked a table at the Wimborne Pig for our wedding anniversary and had an absolutely wonderful experience! We came with our 11-month old baby and the staff were absolutely brilliant and very helpful around her. The food was superb! The most delicious pork belly I've ever had- cooked to perfection, full of flavour and garnished with blueberry sauce. My husband had the beef burger and thoroughly enjoyed it. We both have allergies and I'm currently on a very restrictive gluten, dairy and egg free one. This wasn't an issue at all- the meal was adapted to cater for it. Overall a five star experience and a must try when in Wimborne!
Rating: 5 / 5
Wow! Was not expecting that. Blown away by the food, the ambiance was nice and the staff were attentive and considerate. 100% recommend! I had the wild mushrooms starter, belly pork and cheesecake. The potato terrine was to die for. This was our first time and we will be back regularly! Thank you.

Very nice meal with my friend, would highly recommend. Good changing weekly set menu with a good selection of nice food on the a la carte menu. Opted for the prawn starter and burger main and both were very nice.
Rating: 5 / 5
Had a meal here tonight. One of the best tasting meals I have had out in a long long time. Presentation was on point, as was the list of local ingredients. Opted for the mushroom starter and pork belly main. It was exciting just tasting it all. Atmosphere is brilliant. We will definately be going again. Brilliant 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Nine of us went to the Pig for a family pre Christmas lunch yesterday (Saturday). We had pre-ordered which made things so much easier and slick; and every dish which was produced was absolutely delicious. The starters were generous….I had the brisket of beef; so, so good! Mr Husband had the trout which was carpaccio with wasabi and in a beetroot kvass. My son in law had fried Brie along with several others and those babies were melt in the mouth yum. Main courses; the belly pork was to die for. Most of us had that one! Duck was also excellent. And whilst I don’t always have pudding, the special was a Christmas themed bread pudding and it was fabulous. Again; a very generous portion; with a lovely crunch to the outside and buttery and sweet on the inside. All the other desserts looked equally wonderful. The staff were charming and so tolerant of all the demands of a big group of (mostly older!) people. Especially Jamie. Thank you Wimborne Pig! We will be back for sure.

Friendly welcoming staff that couldn't do enough for you. The food was well presented, and very tasty- The Timmy (fish finger sandwich )was delicious, one of the best I've had. The decor was spot on and there was so many things to look at. The latte was slightly watery tasting- but minor compared to the experience overall. A new favourite.

Visited a few times and never been let down. Very friendly staff, amazing food, lovely laid back environment with lots of different things to look at. Had the homemade quiche, amazing. Fully recommend you visit.

Definitely worth a visit. Breakfast menu a wide choice of delicious foods, home made cakes and very yummy. Service impeccable from being greeted on entry., to great service when ordering food. Food delivered quickly on hot plates. Wide choice hot and cold beverage. Quirky place to eat out with light music. Very popular hidden away professional place. Even better when warm as can sit outside.

Had a great lunch with a group of friends today, such a lovely environment to sit back and relax in. All the food was excellent, and well presented and served at the same time for such a large group all ordering at different times. The staff were a joy it was most definitely service with a smile, Thank you Aunt fanny's for a great afternoon. Special thumbs up for the American lady on the till, superb!

Literally had the best afternoon tea I’ve ever eaten this weekend and I’ve eaten lots over the years, which is why I felt so compelled to write a review to spread the word! I’ve been coming here for years and it just gets better and better. The food is always incredible and super fresh, there’s always lots of specials and the menu choice offers something for everyone. The staff and atmosphere really do make this place extra special, you feel very welcomed and an added bonus they absolutely love dogs. We are so lucky to have such a superb spot like this in Dorset.

Greeting by friendly and happy staff, it felt like being welcomed into a family home. Order taken promptly and food served quickly even though it was fairly busy. I had the Chicken Fajita off of the specials menu which was absolutely delicious and a great portion size, it could’ve been a sharer for two. Highly recommend and a big thank you to the team.

Aroma is one of my favourite places for lunch as you are simply spoilt for choice! The menu is plentiful with sandwich choices, paninis, baps as well as having daily specials! On my most recent visit I opted for the Duck Pizza which was incredible! The service is also spectacular, the staff are super helpful and friendly, food & drinks arrived very fast; and staff ensured you always leave with a smile on your face. Overall would strongly recommend Aroma, and the Wimborne branch is equally as great as their others!

Mediterranean omelette was really good. Plus all inclusive breakfast. Second visit, both times excellent. Lovely staff
Rating: 5 / 5
We had warm paninis served with salad and coleslaw and a cold drink. Service was faultless from start to finish and tables were kept tidy and clean. Very extensive menu and everyone around us seemed hapoy with their orders. Nice atmosphere. We sat outside but I did go inside and it also looked lovely.

We ordered a takeaway from here after visiting for lunch last week (which was great! Fab food and service). Large choice of menus, if you can’t find something you like….id be confused! Ordered the roast pork, my partner had the trio. Wow, so tasty! Everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Had to change an option through the phone as I had an allergy and the staff were beyond helpful. Will defo recommend to my friends!

Reserved a table for 6, for their XMas 'festive menu'. Service was friendly, food was served pretty promptly. Generally everyone really enjoyed their food - only feedback was veggies were a bit hard. Atmosphere is pretty cosy, ... would recommend for an XMas visit.

We visited on Christmas day and had an absolutely amazing lunch. The service by the restaurant and bar staff was fantastic and every detail had been thought about to make a special meal on Christmas day that bit more memorable. The table looked beautiful and the rustic bread on arrival and a Christmas card was a lovely touch, the main courses were delicious - I had the traditional turkey roast and the meat was spot on! A big thank you to Katie, Bridie, Sophie and the rest of the team who all looked after us so well and really made a it a Christmas Day to remember.
Rating: 4 / 5
Had a pre-Xmas Sunday get together and the venue and staff were absolutely awesome - would have scored them a 5 but the veg was too sparse on all the roasts (albeit they did bring us more when asked) and what should have been the absolute bomb of a dessert didn’t quite hit the mark as the sauce to melt the rock hard chocolate case hadn’t been heated up. Will definitely return - it’s a fab venue, with fab staff and food 👍👍

Delicious food, great for gluten free and a lovely courtyard to eat in next to the Wimbourne Minster. I had a Wimbourne pasty and scotch egg. Very very tasty and of highly recommend them. My wife and kids had cream tea, one of which was a gluten free scone. Delicious.

Great coffee in great location opposite the Minster. Nice to be able to sit outside on this sunny autumn morning. Service very good. Cakes OK but a little bit on the dry side.

Hands Down....BEST cream tea we've EVER had. Lovely staff,beautiful fresh scones and wonderful coffee. Will happily come back!
Rating: 4 / 5
Lovely place and fast and friendly service, the food was ok and simple but tasty, they had plenty vegan , vegetarian and non gluten (bread) options with the sandwiches offered and the coffee and Chai latte (vegan) were really good. We were sitting outside under the tree and we had worms coming down from the top of the tree on the table, that was really upsetting and so unfortunately we left. In terms of the food and service it's great but the tree needs to be professionally treated.

Great little Café/Bakery on the edge of the green by Wimborne Minster. Plenty of seating outside overlooking the green with umbrellas. Really friendly and welcoming staff and also pay lots of love and attention to our dog! There is also an ice cream kiosk serving local ice cream, sorbets and even ice cream for dogs! Highly recommend their coffee and also their sausage rolls! Personally the coffee tastes better than your big chain coffee shops like costa. Overall a great little place to get a bite to eat or grab a coffee!
