Great social space for all walks of life with banging views and great coffee which means so much to so many people.

I love to pop in for a decent coffee on beach walks with dogs, family & friends. Always a great service & atmosphere. I love that it has developed organically and is so quirky. I would miss it.

I come down to Sobo every Sunday morning for a swim with my friends and always have a coffee and some breakfast after. We spend most of the summer days with local friends, and those from out of town at sobo enjoying the music, the drinks and the food. I live local to Sobo, just across the road and it’s perfect for my daily walks to grab a quick coffee and sit and enjoy the beach and the good energy sobo brings. It’s perfect.

We enjoy going there

Very welcoming. A great community vibe and multi- generational throughout the whole year not just in the summer months. My teenage daughter would rather go there to meet her friends for an iced coffee than venture into Bournemouth town as feels safe at SOBO and on the beach outside because it is so family friendly. Very dog friendly.

In a world of faceless franchises, why destroy something so authentic? The world needs more places like SOBO Beach.

Met my fiancé at sobo beach 3 yrs ago and come over to walk the dog all yrs round and enjoy the dj sets on a Sunday evening and the silent discos

Bournemouth town centre has gone downhill. I keep saying that I hope that places like Southbourne and Westbourne avoid that and Sobo Beach is a venue that needs to be included.

Next door beach. And I don't want it to be destroyed by bcp inability to make sensible decisions, apart from trying to make a quick, short sighted profit
