About Us
Located at the heart of Bournemouth’s award-winning seafront, the Prom Café has plenty of space inside so you can enjoy a beachside bite to eat without the fear of a good ol’ British downpour. And there’s ample outdoor seating, perfect for al fresco snacks and soaking up the sea views on sunny days.
With a 5-star food hygiene rating, the menu is packed with firm favourites meaning you don’t have to stray far from the sand for fish ‘n’ chips, a pasty or a ’99, as well as light lunch and vegetarian options.
Open from 9am until late seven days a week, (weather permitting) the Prom Café keeps Bournemouth’s beach-goers’ hunger at bay for their entire stay. Start the day with a full English, stock up with a coffee to go or stop by in the afternoon for a traditional cream tea.
Just a stone’s throw from the UK’s best beach, there’s nowhere better to keep the family fuelled for a day beside the seaside!
We are completely dog friendly too, so your four legged friends will be made to feel as welcome as you do!

Customer service with a smile, and excellent storage of milk in hot weather. Also, staff were very responsive to the needs of the more elderly customers, which I rate them for.

Nice view of the sea and pier, friendly staff, delicious and fresh breakfast and brilliant value for money. Easy to see why it's always packed even when other places are empty. Were really flexible with drinks options on the set menu choices. Will definitely be going back when in Bournemouth.
