We visited here for breakfast this morning and it was brilliant. The server let us in a little early which was very kind. We ordered two full English breakfasts and they were delicious. Exactly what you want when you order a full English. The atmosphere is very cosy, the staff are lovely and the music choices are excellent. Highly recommend!

Really nice small place. The food was lovely and the service was great. Was my 1st visit. The table was a bit sticky, so it could do with a wipe down, but it wasn't dirty. They have a decent variety of foods available.

Have eaten here a few times, so far the food has been absolutely delicious, takes a little time for it be served, but is cooked perfectly.
Staff are friendly and helpful, serving with a smile every time. I love the decor and the theme of the place, however some of the tables seem awkwardly low to eat from, compared to the seats, this is a minor nitpick though. The first table I sat at, the table barely fit over my legs, and I'm average sized.
Overall however, I will definitely be returning again!

Absolute gem of a cafe in the heart of Bedford Place.
The staff are really friendly and there’s a lovely atmosphere.
Onto the food. Best bacon sandwich bar none. Toasting the bread takes it next level. Add egg and, woof, it’s even more amazing.
For the first time I chucked sausage into the mix, and oh my goodness. Actually felt sad once it was finished, as there was no more.
Coffee is really good and actually tastes of decent coffee. This may sound obvious, but it’s by no means a given with too many places.
Prices are very reasonable. Nowhere is a bargain these days, but in terms of quality, Retro is at a level where it almost is a bargain.
All in all, you owe it to yourself to get involved.

Tried here when I was down with friends for the weekend. Was a lovely breakfast. Im currently obsessed with all things halloumi and avocado and they had one with tomato relish on bloomer bread that was lush! Chai latte was lovely and crispy crunchy side of hash browns.
Great atmosphere and dog friendly so well pleased.

A lovely spot for a leisurely solo lunch - I went for the full English breakfast (served all day) which was delicious. Thank you Retro Café.

Can't beat breakfast at Retro Cafe, visited many times and we are never disappointed. Reasonably priced, well thought out food and service. Toast pre-buttered with breakfast and hot drinks served with a biscuit! It's the little things but we love this detail. I wish we knew the name of our favourite server so we could give her a shout out, but she makes the most amazing hot drinks and we are always buzzing when we spot that she's the one making them! (08/04 early morning visit, thank you for all your amazing service)

We've experienced poor service here previously, but the problems appear to have been resolved now. Service was good today, the food was nicely cooked and well presented too. When things go well, as they did today, this remains the best all-day breakfast that I've had in Southampton. It's also my favourite cafe locally. I like the location, there's a nice ambience inside and some seating outside.There's a great range of hot drinks and reasonable prices Friendly, helpful staff. Dog friendly. Disabled access.

Don't go here on a Friday 15 mins before closing as the staff/staff member are very rude. Amazed to be treated the way I was last Friday. Rude uninterested and the tea I bought was awful. Just hope it was an off day if not custom will drop Bon way I would return!!!!
Mathias Albertson
I eat here regularly and have never been disappointed. This kind of value for money combined with a cosy "non-chain" atmosphere is hard to find anywhere else. One can tell that these guys only use high quality produce.
