The Urban Reef is a funky bar, café, deli and restaurant located at the newly transformed Overstrand on Boscombe promenade. This unique location offers panoramic views over the stunning Bournemouth Bay and imminent surf reef.

The team behind the Urban Beach Hotel are hugely excited to have the opportunity to design, build and operate the Urban Reef and will inject the same level of detail, passion and commitment that has already turned the Urban Beach into a respected award winning local business.

Committed to fresh, local & seasonal produce, committed to ethics and sustainability, committed to smiling, having fun and working really really hard to achieve something amazing. Please come and pay us a visit. We opened in May 2009, and are working frantically every day to get the place running like a well oiled machine. It may take a little while, but please come and join in the fun. You can now book your table online here with just a couple of clicks. Clever!

The Urban Reef offers a 90 seater sun deck right on the promenade, a ground floor café, bar and local produce deli and a 100 seater restaurant on the first floor and mezzanine. Open from 8am 7 days per week selling breakfast, lunch and dinner.

An open log burning fire, an oak clad wall holding 60 candles, a beautiful 50’s inspired interior and designer furniture with a triple height glass frontage flooding the building with light, creates an amazing space for both summer and winter dining.

Take a seat on the deck and watch our team of chefs prepare your dishes in our open plan kitchen. Our bar team will prepare you some amazing triple certified coffees, a simple freshly squeezed orange juice, or something really special such as our Urban Reef iced tea cocktail. You choose...

Summer tunes, quality papers and magazines, surrounded by fresh produce and a view to die for. We know you're going to love it.
