Cute little cafe which is dog friendly which is a bonus for us. Small outside space but plenty of seating inside. Food was delicious!

Lovely little coffee shop. Cozy and quirky atmosphere. The staff were very polite and helpful.The place was clean and service was pretty quick considering the had quite a few orders to make.Coffee was decent (cafetiere of the Columbian coffee) and the sandwich I had was lovely (Bacon with brie and cranberry on sourdough)The only let down was it felt a little pricey compared to similar places I've been to in the past. But I think it's worth a trip at least once.

Firstly, I want to say, in terms of decor, cleanliness and staff, this place is fantastic.The decor is quite original and quirky, and we found it to be very inviting. Also, very clean which is always nice to see.The highlight however for us were the staff. They couldn't do enough to help. Very friendly and extremely helpful. An absolute credit to the business. I will also say the coffee is amazing!Sadly, what loses this place it's two stars off being a perfect review is the food. Having seen the lack of cooking facilities we saw, it isn't surprising, so I guess that it shouldn't come as a surprise.We ordered 3 all day breakfasts. Unfortunately it was devoid of any real taste and having the bread covered in what appeared to be margarine was a real let down. The sausages were quite small, and didn't have that normal meaty taste that you'd expect from a unique cafe such as this. The bacon appeared to just be thin strips of bacon flavoured crisps. No option for anything other than scrambled egg (I appreciate that is due to the lack of facilities and I was aware of this when ordering).I appreciate that everyone is different and I'm sure there will be Ringwood locals that may vehemently disagree with me on this, but it just felt like a real shame, and the meals left us completely underwhelmed.We didn't see any point in complaining, as there was nothing wrong with the food. We received exactly what we'd asked for and it was hot. Because of everything else being fantastic, we felt that it wasn't appropriate, as the issues weren't anything to do with what was done on the day. Perhaps something for the owners to consider, given the amount of healthy competition that you have in Ringwood High St?In summary, I would not hesitate to come back for a coffee and would gladly spend my money there, however I would in no way recommend the food and wouldn't eat there again. Give the food quality some attention however, then I'd be in no doubt that this place would the best place to come to for coffee and breakfast in Ringwood!

This is a nice place and the breakfast was good. However I found the full English was a little smaller than I thought it would be. They also gave my friend tomatoes when they’d said they’d switch those for an extra sausage. The tomatoes were also cherry tomatoes and uncooked which I wasn’t a fan of. The drinks are also quite expensive (£2 for a small glass of orange juice). However they have a good deal where you can pay an extra £1 if you’re getting the full English and can choose any drink. The hot drinks they make are excellent and well presented. I’d recommend the chocolate milkshake, the Jaffa cake hot chocolate and the tea (which comes with an entire pot). When we left we also got the dirty chai and the mocha, both of which are absolutely delicious. The cafe itself is nicely set out, and clean. It definitely has a quirky vibe to it. I’d recommend the place if you’re in the local area.

Love this place. The family are always welcoming and make food to order if you ask nicely!Dog friendly, food is always great and the atmosphere is on point. Highly recommend.Note: seating can sometimes be tight but I wouldnt want the Pantry any other way. Its quirky and relaxed!
