Really lovely place, the kids love it here and the food (especially the cakes) are great price and quality. Large portions and good prices, cant really fault it. Have great activities running for both children and adults and a great selection of drinks.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love Hub on the Heath! The gluten-free cakes and treats are absolutely incredible – some of the best I’ve ever had. Carole, and the team, always give such a warm and friendly welcome every time. The whole place has such a great vibe – relaxed, inviting, and full of community spirit. A real gem in Canford Heath!

From delicious bakes to gorgeous coffees (and let’s not forget the cosy atmosphere ), it’s a haven you’ll want to keep coming back to.

The Hub On The Heath is a community cafe in the middle of Canford Heath. Cat (the owner) and her lovely staff are so welcoming and caring. I had lunch with my husband last Friday. We had a chicken bowl salad and a jacket potato with my favourite toppings mushrooms, cheese, and avocado with a salad and homemade coleslaw. There are lots of options for all dietary requirements. I am a coeliac, and there are lots of gluten-free options. From English breakfast to home-made lunch and yummy cakes with coffee or teas (great vatiety of herbal teas too). Also, if you would like to treat someone special, you can now book an Afternoon Cream Tea (available with different dietary requirements). I am sure that you will have a great experience there.

At The Hub today we took a friend out for a cream tea. It was lovely. The food was fresh and delicious,with a good selection of sandwiches and cakes. There were homemade scones which were light and very tasty ( and as one who has eaten a few cream teas this is not always the case)with plenty of cream and jam . The cakes as always were very good , and usually are , on every occasion we have been there . But we enjoy the inclusive atmosphere and the wonderful staff who find nothing too much trouble. They are kind and very polite. Thank you again for a great experience. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
