Airfield Cafe
Seated atop a hill in the heart of the Dorset countryside, Compton Abbas Airfield café is the perfect location for a wake up breakfast, casual lunch or scrumptious tea and cake.
We use locally-sourced ingredients where we can and are often voted the best of our kind in the country.
Most of our visitors are in fact not pilots but people who just enjoy our stunning location, unrivalled views from the café and runway terrace, and of course great food. We recommend that you book for lunch.

The small print: Unfortunately we cannot accept groups over the size of 12. Picnics are not allowed anywhere on the airfield due to debris ingested into aircraft engines. Regrettably no dogs allowed. Table bookings between 12 and 2pm. A deposit of £5.00 per person will be taken for groups over 8 persons on weekends. A close eye must be kept on children at all times. The airfield is private property.
