Stumbled across this beauty of a coffee shop when visiting Bridport to watch my daughter play football. Always like to support local coffee shops rather than the burnt coffee mega chains and Soulshine certainly didn’t disappoint. The cortado was amazing and I’m looking forward to another away day match so I can drop in again!

Wow! Soulshine is exceptional. Loved the vibe, the food (oh that soup), but also sampled a bite of my daughter’s bacon and egg sandwich… next level! Super place.

Can not fault the food or service in this quirky deli/bistro. Food is amazing and wholesome, Tortilla was fabulous, the rhubarb drink was soooo lovely and the baked cheesecake was scrummy.

Post Parkrun coffee, that turned into eggs on toast and cake ?. Relied on instinct for this one, and was not disappointed. Clearly popular with those that know, but as visitors we lucked in. Waiting in the queue to be seated was enough to convince us we needed more than cake. All breakfasts looked mouth watering. ?. All on sourdough toast and the bacon was proper baconey ?

My Husband, Daughter & I love this place. You are always guaranteed repeat business when you nail the food/produce. These guys certainly have. Recommend!

Took my old dad to his favourite breakfast place in Bridport. We were a party of 5 on a very busy Saturday morning so chances of getting a table were slim. However, the fabulous chap who greeted us shuffled a few accommodating people around and we were seated within a minute. Glorious breakfasts of pancakes, beans, eggs, bacon and the best gluten free bread I've tasted in yrs were served up. We indulged ourselves even more by having cheesecake to follow ! What a splendid place Soulshine is, such fantastic staff and such superbly toothsome food. Bridport has many good food establishments and Soulshine is up there with the best.

Stopped off in Bridport on the way home from Lyme Regis and we're lucky enough to find Soulshine. Great find, had an excellent coffee with an amazing slice of orange, almond and pistachio cake (WOW) Great friendly service and just what we needed before travelling home.

Great service with fabulous home cooked, fresh tasty food. Lots of choice and plenty of seats. Local mackerel, turnip soup, cheese toasties, with good house wine and choice of beers. Washed down with excellent coffee and a sensational brownie. Enjoy

If I could have given a 10 mark rather than a 5, I would! We had a fantastic meal last night as a part of Soulshine's Supper club. I loved the variety of dishes with locally sourced ingredients, fantastic presentation and warm hospitality. Will definitely be back. Thank you, Andy and Team!

I love popping into this cafe when I am in Bridport, the menus is small but full of nice dishes. I love their doorstep sandwiches and their tortilla, just delicious. I am either vegetarian or vegan but they have some lovely vegetarian dishes. I found their coffee has a bit of a funny undertaste, not sure I like their coffee bean choices. Their baked cheesecake is lovely but some of their (vegan?) cake slices were also not quite my taste. However, those are my personal tastes, other may very well disagree.
This is THE place to eat in Bridport. The food is unique, extremely hood quality and great value. The service is friendly, knowledgeable, and very efficient. We had the most amazing lunch and have already planned to return.

A real down to earth rustic cafe serving hearty homemade food and good coffee. We had the Spanish tortilla and a vegetable soup which were both delicious and filling.

Visited for dinner when on holiday as recommended by local friends and weren’t disappointed. Incredible food, flavours and local ingredients. The organic stout and Kingston Black were also a highlight. Super friendly service and chilled buzzy atmosphere. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great food and supporting local small business.

Visited with the family for a late lunch. The generations all loved the food and the ambience. Short queue to get started but the experience more than made up for the frustration of waiting. We all had vegetarian options and they were packed full of flavour. Coffee was great, cake delicious.

We had the most delicious meal here while staying in Bridport for the Literature festival. We had tried coffee one morning with the most delicious cinnamon buns I’ve ever had so couldn’t wait to try their dinner menu. The service is lovely, very friendly and helpful team who know all about the food. We had confit garlic with sourdough which was so tasty and different. We then had potatoes with pesto and beetroot warm salad - both so tasty and beautifully prepared. Lovely organic wines and a great cocktail selection. I only wish we lived nearer- we’d be there all the time!
