Riptide Espresso & Records

Second visit to this gem.. food great, service friendly relaxed on point.. atmosphere super relaxed even better at window people watching.. Recommend Avo on sourdough with extra halloumi.. Yes we have all had Avo on toast 100 times but this one beats them all at this place… immaculate executed. Oh a first class coffee.. “mic drop”

Great vibes, great coffee, great food, great everything! It's dog friendly too, big tick! What an awesome little space of happiness! Great tunes playing the whole time, friendly staff with helpful recommendations for food. Excellent options for vegetarian, vegan and other dietary requirements, this is just a cool place to be. Definitely worth a visit.

Small and chilled out coffee shop with good vibes, amazing toasties and delicious smoothies! This was our first time in here despite walking past on countless occasion, we’re so glad we stopped by this time. We enjoyed 2 ham and cheese toasties along with 2 ‘green’ smoothies. The toasties were so oozy with melted cheddar and loads of ham between perfectly crisp and crunchy sourdough with a couple of pickles on top, yum! The ‘green’ smoothies were freshly blitzed and ice cold, refreshing, sweet and tasty, no bitterness that you might usually associate with some other green smoothies! Great price for what we had, incredibly friendly and welcoming staff and we look forward to returning for coffee and cake, or even breakfast next time as we want to try more… Luckily we’re local! Keep up the fantastic work team.

Fresh and cozy place to visit. We stopped only for coffee,but next time will try their food too. They have upstairs seating as well. Service is nice and friendly, these guys know what they're doing. They sell records too. Our coffee was tasty. They have smoothies, bagels, toasties. Recommend to try this place.

The absolute best Cafe you can go to in Poole. We recently moved from London to Poole and have been here now 4-5 times and will definitely keep going regularly. It's always been a great experience with a wide variety of great drinks and coffee. The food is also excellent and we've always been impressed. There's always a chill atmosphere with good music and friendly staff. If any place deserves a visit and 5 stars this one does.
