A big shout out to Coffee Saloon, a local independent that is producing excellent tea and coffee in Poole, Bournemouth and Weymouth.

If you’re in the area swing by for a coffee, it won’t disappoint.

Regular followers to the blog will probably realise now how much I like coffee – if not, hello, I’m Bex and I am a coffee addict. I’ve loved coffee for about 20 years and will always find an excuse to squeeze a cup in during the morning, the evening, with friends, with syrup, crazy Christmas versions and everything that falls between.

I first discovered the Saloon in the summer when I needed a caffeine fix before we headed to a blogging event. I had a delicious iced coffee and marvelled at the routin’ tootin’ decor before heading out to look around Old Town Poole.

I was chuffed to have found a local independent serving excellent ‘proper’ coffee and I knew it will be one of those spots that I’ll seek out whenever I’m in the area.

Annoyingly all my pictures from my visit to Coffee Saloon corrupted. Not cool! Pixelated coffee art doesn’t look good and I’m gutted I don’t have my delicious drink to share with you. But, I won’t let that stop me, here’s an image from the website that looked very similar to what I had when I visited!

The food looks excellent, especially the cakes and I’d love to go back and try more on the menu as it all looked delicious.

Coffee Saloon, I will be back for a coffee, cake and to replace those pictures I lost – keep an eye out for me!

If you’re in any of the areas near a Saloon it’s worth making the trip to go, bypassing the corporate chains and supporting local!
