Delfino Lounge

I love the Lounges but they have an annoying habit of constantly changing their menu. They seem to be currently withdrawing ingredients from dishes, decreasing portions and inflating prices. It's a shame because it's somewhere a little different to eat. Staff are overworked due to staff cuts. Visit one of the Lounges before they start to close them down.

I went into delfino in the evening on a weekday for a date night and it was a lovely atmosphere in there - the candles on the table were lit and it wasn’t too crowded or busy in the upstairs part of the restaurant. Staff were lovely and we were seated very quickly and able to order online very efficiently too. The food was 10/10 and i especially loved the mozzarella and sweetcorn fritters (at least i think that’s the name of them!) and the elderflower cooler drink was so nice too! overall had a lovely evening and i come there often to get work done - always a lovely environment. :) good value for food 👍🏽

We go to a lot of the lounges as they do great gluten free options. Vast selection of food and it’s always been great but the staff here seemed quite fresh. Could do better hence no 5 star. Also the kids hummus snack pot NEVER comes out before the main meal. This is quite common across all the lounges we have found. It should come quickly for the kids to snack on while waiting for the main meal, but never comes even after reminding when ordering.

Over the past few months this has become the go-to place for me and my friends. Atmosphere is always cozy and when they are busy it’s more often than not that you receive your food and drink faster than the estimated time -even when they are absolutely packed. Food never disappoints, staff are all friendly and helpful. 10/10 would massively recommend; best place to eat in Poole.

We didn't eat but needed a drink so popped in, my partner had a cider I wanted an ale but there was a problem with pumps so I plumped for a larger one which was nice and cold. It was nice to see that they had put a water dispenser for customers to help themselves to cold water. I saw some food come out which looked nice.
