  It’s the best community beach cafe on the whole of the south coast.

  Community, social and does not limit clientele! Great groups meet there and they hold community events which no restaurant or beach cafe would do like this. They give back to the community and is space for everyone, dog walkers, families, swimmers, lunchers, drinkers, tea and coffee lovers. We want this place to stay!!

  Sobo Beach has completely transformed the space into something that genuinely benefits the whole community and welcomes people of all ages. It brings people together, encourages meet-ups for different groups, organises classes and litter picks, and creates an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome. It’s also a fantastic place for dog owners and their dogs to socialise and meet others. I feel that replacing what’s already there with something different risks losing all of this

  An independent venue offering a great service to a wide area of BCP. Run well, sensitive to the local environment. We use it a lot.

  In the summer, it’s the only place we want to visit. It’s busy with good atmosphere but not crowded like Bournemouth. Sobo is a summer staple

  It’s the best local beach near me and one of my favourite places to go on a walk. I think it’s nicer than all the beaches along the promenade.

  I walk my dogs along the beach and love to stop for a coffee or a drink. I work with sen children and bring them here for sessions. My gym meet here and do swims. I come to the evening events here with my friends. My dad is 77 and lives it so much and it’s somewhere he can walk to from house. When we have visitors from Norway we take them there as it’s unlike anything they have. It’s a special place and I wish there was more like it. I don’t trust the council to get the right people in.
