Forum Cafe

Arrived on our bi-annual visit to Blandford and headed for the Forum as our cafe of choice. Unfortunately for us but, no doubt, well-deserved, the owners are on a break until 13 Oct 2022. I hope they have a good holiday. (5 stars or else the information won't post. All previous visits for coffee and cake have been that good.)

Today I was introduced to this wonderful gem of a cafe, close to the centre of Blandford. The I only came in for a cup of tea and 3 cups of coffee, with me a two other gents. The gentleman behind the counter with a mostash was wonderful kind and polite. The service was simply outstanding. He was funny, polite and attentive. This is not the service you would expect in national coffee chains, but from a five star hotel. I purchased some fabulous bars of Love Cocoa with the words Thank You. I hear this place does great food. Try this place if you in Blandford, a real gem.

A beautiful little café which is bright, cozy and welcoming. The coffee was delicious and the display of cakes makes it very difficult to choose. We settled on the chocolate brownie and it was definitely a wise choice. The staff were friendly and helpful in their recommendations, if you are in the area this café is a must!

Had a quick lunch here today with our small dog. Small but cosy. Staff were excellent. Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Service was excellent. We had two different types of savoury tarts for lunch, heated up. Plus an excellent pot of tea (according to other half) and a good cappuccino. We also shared a generous slice of lemon drizzle cake. The other cakes looked yummy. Would definately come here again.
