The Bunker hosted a private function for the Bournemouth Joggers Running Club last week and despite there being 30 of us, they brought out a great selection of buffet food and looked after us without any fuss. The staff were friendly and chatty, it was also very good value for money.

Easy parking and a lovely atmosphere. It’s a bar AND a cafe. I tried a green smoothie and it was lovely. One VEGAN cake option - apricot flapjack that’s delicious. Good quality coffee too. Nice selection of tables and a little outside seating area. Nice local walks up St Catherine’s hill too.

Sunday breakfast is out of this world - perfectly cooked, and served with a smile. If you’re in the area, it’s an absolute must. Wednesdays – the 2-for-1 pizza is a great value for what you pay. The team here really make the experience special – Robin, Laura, and Carrie are always welcoming, friendly, and go the extra mile to make you feel at home. There’s a free car park on site, which makes it super convenient for a stopover or a relaxed bite to eat without the stress of finding parking In the town. Highly recommend – whether you’re local or just passing through, this spot is worth it

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the fantastic team at The Bunker for hosting us yesterday for our baby shower. Every member of the team was so friendly and accommodating. They helped us set up and tidy away at the end, and nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious and great value for money. I would highly recommend this fabulous local venue to anyone and we’re looking forward to coming back for coffee dates once our little one has arrived. Thanks again to Carrie and the whole team!
