Reviews in Bournemouth

Great evening had by all. A buzzing yet relaxed atmosphere. Quality of food was great with lots of choice. As good as anything you'd get in Spain. We will be back almost certainly to choose the tapas we didn't have this time round.

Party of 4 booked for Saturday evening for our first visit here. Front of house very welcoming and sorted out drinks at the bar then showed us to our table. Food choices were good and waiting staff very happy to answer any questions. Mix of tapas dishes worked really well washed down with wine, mocktails, beer. Good busy atmosphere with table service at just the right speed. Definitely worth another visit.

Had a great evening at Bodega on Saturday. The front of house staff were very welcoming and had good knowledge of the menu, they made sure we had everything we needed. The food was really delicious with a good variety to suit everyone’s tastes. The atmosphere was warm and friendly with a good vibe. We will definitely going back.

What can we say, was there last night 14/02 and what a place, great food great service and staff on point. We will be back!

Wonderful Valentines meal this weekend! The food, wine, service and atmosphere were perfect

Lovely night at Bodega. Food was fabulous. Sommelier was very knowledgeable and chose some great wines for us. Good atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We celebrated our 10 year anniversary at Bodega last Thursday and were blown away by the amazing tapas. So many beautiful dishes to choose from. The staff are so attentive and passionate about the food they serve. We are already salivating over the menu as to what we will have on our next visit. Thanks to you all.

We had a large table for the bottomless brunch on Saturday and it was such a lovely atmosphere, it felt really vibrant in there. We were really well looked after, the service was fantastic (thank you so much to Beth!) and the food was super tasty. It was really good value and will definitely be back soon! Thanks for such a lovely experience!

Delicious food, great atmosphere and music, quick service

First visit here on Saturday evening and we were very impressed. Efficient, friendly staff. Great ambience and lovely food.

Had an excellent lunch yesterday. The quality of the food was outstanding, the most amazing olives! We will definitely return. Very friendly staff. It was lunchtime and we were the first to arrive so it was a bit ‘flat’ but soon got a bit busier. Super value.

Had a lovely evening, great atmosphere, great wine and really friendly helpful service.

As a Southbourne resident this was our first visit to Bodega. What an amazing experience. Great atmosphere, service and fantastic food. Will definitely be back on a regular basis

Superb...the staff were so friendly and the food is amazing, authentically Spanish. Nice refreshing mocktails too. We will definitely be going back .

Fantastic!!! Lovely food, every dish was great! Staff are friendly and helpful, they were rushed off their feet but still ensured great service and a laugh with us. I can’t wait to return! Portions are generous, we ordered 3 dishes each and had plenty left over. Great value

Lovely evening at Bodega Southbourne on Saturday. Group of 6 of us. Very well looked after by Dawn and her team. Great food and wine. Nice to have a bar tender who knew his wine too.

Echoing other recent reviews - all very good ! Only disappointment was they’d run out of padron peppers when we went.

First time at Southbourne Bodega. Really busy and great atmosphere but staff really on top of it. More of a vibrant local restaurant feel than Christchurch one (which we find more of a chilled bar atmosphere). Food amazing and good wine. Had run out of a few things but there were enough good replacements. Will book an earlier sitting next time as had run out of the pig cheeks!!! Really, really good evening. Will be back.
