Situated conveniently on Ringwood Road, this eatery is one of those places that surprises you in the best possible way. From the outside, it’s fairly unassuming – but step inside and you’re welcomed by a bold black-and-yellow colour palette that gives the space a clean, modern energy. That contrast creates a kind of visual balance that sets the tone before the food even arrives.
There’s a compact but stylish bar area, and the open kitchen visible from the dining room adds a real sense of trust and atmosphere. It’s a reminder that the kitchen has nothing to hide – everything is made fresh and you can see it for yourself.
We started with the Tempura Prawns and the Salt & Pepper Squid. The prawns came with a mango, chilli and red onion salsa that was absolutely spot-on – fresh, vibrant, and the perfect match for the crisp batter. The squid was just as it should be: tender, lightly crisped, and accompanied by a homemade tartare sauce that tasted like it had been whipped up that very afternoon. In fact, everything we ate had that unmistakable freshness – nothing mass-produced, no corners cut.
For mains, we went for the Rump of Lamb and the Beef Tower Burger. The lamb was beautifully cooked – tender, and harmonised wonderfully with the salsa verde. The burger, too, was a solid offering: juicy beef, a nice brioche bun, proper cheese, and nothing overpowered. It all held together well and tasted like a burger should – satisfying, hearty, and properly seasoned.
And then came the Cheesecake – and I have to say, I don’t make this kind of claim lightly. I’ve eaten cheesecake in more places than I care to count, from little village cafés to big-name restaurants, and this one genuinely stood out. It’s easily up there with the best I’ve ever had. Barely sweetened, the cheesecake itself leaned closer to savoury, allowing the cheese to speak for itself. That depth of flavour, balanced by the sweet cream and delicate chocolate, showed serious culinary intelligence. This wasn’t just dessert – this was a chef’s signature.
The service throughout was warm, professional, and timed just right – present without being intrusive.
All in all, Love All Food is the kind of place that gets everything right without making a fuss about it. It’s well worth the visit – go hungry, and whatever you do, don’t...
Read more10 out of 10 for the food quality and flexibility on the menu. I love the fact that you can choose items separately to create your own "way" Seating was available it was a Wednesday afternoon just after 1pm June 2024. My sister and I sat outside as it was a nice sunny day. Service was quick however the waitress was not particularly chatty.
I ordered 'eggs my way' scrambled with smoked salmon, bacon with upgrade to sourdough with a flat white.. Sis had avocado on toast with smoked salmon and bacon and a double cappuccino total cost £33.30. Every item was excellent quality, fresh and tasty. Perfectly presented and very good value for money.
Slight negative was unfortunately we felt rushed. We were asked on two occasions during our 1 hour visit, if we were finished when we clearly were not. We were relaxed n chatting as we'd stopped off on our way to The Jurassic Coast. I wouldn't mind if tables were full but that was not the case. Maybe they were just being efficient.
Overall the food is fabulous and I would definitely visit again without any hesitation. I also recommend...
Read moreI am lucky enough to have Love all Food Cafe on my doorstep and it is my favourite place to go for breakfast/brunch/lunch. I usually dine in but I can grab a takeaway too which is handy for my lunch break. If you are not lucky enough to live within walking distance there is a car park just around the corner and a lay by outside the door. Firstly they have great coffee! Then there is their menu which offers excellent options including all the favourite breakfast items and a variety of toasties and baguettes. My choice is usually the avocado on toast with extra streaky bacon which is delicious but I have tried many delicious items including the bacon & Brie baguette, scrambled egg on toast, sausage baguette and the list goes on. Everything is cooked to order but despite that there is rarely a wait for your food. Finally and most importantly the staff are very friendly and deliver an extremely efficient 5 star service with a smile which leaves me grateful for having chosen them for my regular brunch stop. Keep up the...
