Bridge Cottage Cafe - Purbeck

Lovely cafe run by a super friendly family. The food and drinks are fabulous. Best hot chocolate we’ve ever had. Nelly the dog loved her little treats. A must visit if you pass through Poolewe.

We popped in the Bridge Cottage Art Café after a wintery but beautiful walk along River Ewe and we felt it was the right choice the moment we walked through the door. The cakes (date slice and carrot cake) were absolutely delicious and the lattes the best we had for a long time. The decoration was absolutely lovely (thanks to Ailsa for the mural) and the music very soothing. The fact that the café combines with an art gallery was an absolute treat. We definitely recommend venturing upstairs to browse the beautiful photos, paintings, textiles, mugs and notepads (all inspired by nature and the creation of the owners: Jennifer, Ailsa and Ian). And last but not least, thanks ever so much to Ailsa and Ian for giving us such a warm welcome. We wish you the very best in your new adventure in beautiful Wester Ross!

Had a Fantastic lunch today at the cozy Bridge Street cafe,Iains Lentil soup was amazing along with homemade sourdough bread,Also my husband had the local bacon and free-range egg roll what a brilliant atmosphere and lovely Home baking from Jennifer Alisa a Brilliant wee spot in the lovely village of poolewe . The Art Gallery up the stairs in the cafe is a must full of stunning pieces.

Fantastic place. We struggled to find anywhere open on New Year's Eve whilst driving the NC500. What an amazing warm welcome this cafe offers. The food is just beautiful and the coffees amazing. Beautiful little art gallery upstairs and the toilets so clean. Best cafe we visited on our route NC500!!!!

Great cozy little place with locals and some visitors. They're expanding their menu a bit, but the coffees are delicious, and cakes and scones and other goods are wonderful, baked in house by the owners' daughter, a gorgeous Scottish redhead, the vivacious Ilsa (sp? who makes everyone feel at home!
