Oliver's Coffee House - West Dorset

The atmosphere at this restaurant is pleasant. The baguettes were filling but a bit dry and became hard towards the end. However, the carrot cake was delicious!

Visited on Saturday afternoon. ordered a ham and cheese to share ciabatta, coffee and hot chocolate, and a few cakes. the personal was nice. that was okay. ciabatta was on average or a little fat. pie selection was decent, but pie underwhelming. coffee was very. nice but hot chocolate was a little disappointing. the seat is different, with a large table and some flat alcove. interesting idea, but slightly impractical. otherwise it is a very pretty business. overall was a bit disappointing in the big reviews!

Visited olivers for a bacon sandwich and coffee between appointments. coffee good sandwich unedable. brot stale bacon tasteless. before was and had cake that was good. therefore will not return for brahfast.

We decided to try this restaurant for lunch since the long line of customers waiting outside seemed like a good sign. The seating arrangement was a bit odd, with only long tables that needed to be shared, which isn't ideal for Covid-19 safety measures. However, I can see how it would be nice when it's not as busy. We visited on a Saturday and were disappointed with the food for the price. The toasties and ciabatta were soggy and lacked garnishes. The cutlery and sauce situation was confusing, with some people receiving cutlery while others didn't, so we had to figure it out ourselves. The staff weren't wearing masks, despite signs asking customers to do so, which felt a bit hypocritical.

My wife and I went out for lunch this week. She ordered the quiche Lorraine, while I had the baked potato with baked beans. We both had iced tea to drink. For dessert, we split a slice of Guinness cake which was both very generous in size and delicious. The food was all lovely and affordable. The staff was also pleasant and professional.
