Is nice to sit around the park,drink coffee,or cold drink,you can eat also with the kids ,I recommend this place.

It's a very busy place filled with kids, making it impossible to hear myself think. I felt extremely anxious with all the noise and tantrums while waiting for my order. I had specifically ordered one drink, but received the wrong one and was charged extra.

The coffee was delicious, and the staff were just wonderful, attentive and friendly!
What a great initiative. I love their pay it forward suggestion. If I'm back in the area would definitely visit again.

I received a warm and personal greeting. Coffee was excellent 👌. Lovely safe atmosphere right in Boscombe Park between a communal gardening hub and the children's area. Adapted for families (large activiy table for kids to colour), high chairs etc, and adults to chill. Good selection of coffees and other soft drinks and sandwich style light lunches.

I didn't expect such a nice place in the middle of a park. The parents can enjoy a coffee while the kids are running around.

I popped in here the other day as I was driving past the gardens to Boscombe.
I didn't even know it was there.
I'd never visited before.
It's a small cafe in the middle of a large grassed area Inbetween a cresent of houses.
It has a kiddies play areas outside which was nice and busy with lots of happy kiddies enjoying being out with their parents.
The staff are absolutely lovely in the cafe, really polite and efficient.
Cleared tables off nice and quick.
I would have liked to have seen the floor cleared of wrappers, food and mud though as there was enough staff for that never to happen. I know it's very busy in there and there's lots of mud from play area being brought in but that should be an even bigger reason to keep on top of the floor being at least swept. I didn't like seeing dried muddy hand prints on the wooden chairs either.
Food on offer was very tasty, excellent value and fresh. Lovely coffee too.
Thankfully cups, cutlery and plates were all clean.
I will definitely visit again but just hope to see it cleaner.
If you're passing it's definitely worth popping in for a cuppa n cake, the cakes are lovely too.

The Joy cafe is really at the heart of the Boscombe community in Churchill Gardens.
It not only serves the local people it's run by local people. Friendly staff and we'll priced food and drinks.
Update 2024, the longer Joy cafe is open the more it is helping serving the community.
Such a great location within the local square with a park.
