On Bournemouth's eastern coast, Southbourne Grove serves as the leafy high street running through Southbourne, and Harry's Coffee House is one of the small independent cafés found along it. Together with a handful of independent bakeries and coffee spots, it helps give the Grove its village character, and sits only a short walk up from the clifftop and the beach below.
Where it is
At 52A Southbourne Grove, BH6 3RB, this café sits among the row of independent shops, delis and cafés that locals consider Southbourne's true high street. Downhill, only minutes away on foot, lie the overcliff promenade and Southbourne Beach, so a stop here fits easily either before or after time by the sea.
Good to know
No published menu, price list or timetable exists online for this café, which means popping in or checking locally is the best bet for current offerings. Two things are confirmed, though: Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council has the business formally registered as a café, and a December 2022 inspection gave it a Food Hygiene Rating Scheme score of 4 out of 5 ("generally satisfactory"), a decent signal that the kitchen is well managed.
Anyone exploring Southbourne Grove could easily combine a stop here with a walk further along the high street or down towards the clifftop. Our Southbourne guide has more on the area, and the food & drink guide lists further options nearby.
