The Secret Garden Cafe

Absolutely gorgeous cafe, lovely seating inside and out. I am coeliac and was able to enjoy a lovely afternoon lunch, as they catered so brilliantly for this including other allergens, very clued up and lots of choices. I could barely move after I had the waffles for dessert. The staff were so lovely and friendly and the service was great.

This is easily becoming my favourite cafe in Weymouth. The location is great, just moments from the harbour side in the bustling brewers quay area. They have a sizeable outside seating area for those dry days and a cosy dining area inside. The staff are wonderfully accommodating and lovely with our children, they are always offered colouring books and numerous high chairs are available. Now the food...it is lovely. It is all vegetarian or vegan, but even as a meat lover I always find something to eat. A personal favourite is the poutine, fries with melted cheese covered in the most delicious mushroom gravy - it is gorgeous! The extensive waffle menu is a firm hit with all ages, with choices to suit all. From waffles doused in chocolate to lovely fruit toppings. If you are in the area, I would wholeheartedly suggest you pop by for lunch.

What a fantastic find, the food is delicious. I had a mouthwatering mushroom and beetroot burger with cheddar cheese, fries and salad, so so good. My friend, who is gluten free, ate all of her delicious chickpea and sweetcorn burger, salad and fries. To top it off we each had a waffle with various toppings. Again my friend hadn't eaten a gluten free waffle in years! This place is so welcoming and is a total gem. Thank you to the lovely staff who are so amenable.

We popped in here on the off chance for a light lunch with our daughter and three month old granddaughter. We were immediately made to feel welcomed and the ambience was very chilled and easy going. Even when the baby had a shrieking fit the staff were friendly and attentive. We ordered some lunch of jacket potato, cheesy chips and ‘poutine’. All of which were delicious and served quickly, as were our drinks. Their coffee was fantastic, with double the quality and quantity of the nearby chain coffee shops for a lower price! The staff were chatty and in great spirits, as were many of the clientele. We decided to share a couple of their famous waffles with assorted toppings. They were excellent, although we may not eat for a few days now. The server wouldn’t let us escape without getting a cuddle with our little Florence. Now Flo can’t wait to go back and visit Auntie P. So highly recommended, this place is a little gem of a find.

Delicious waffles. I totally recommend if you're in the area. I came for breakfast and received the most welcoming experience. Everything, from the service to the food, was beyond expectations. Very tasty waffles. On top of that, there's vegetarian and gluten-free options, which is very nice for those with dietary restrictions.
