Home From Home

Bruno Lounge is a laid-back café-bar on The Quay in Poole, offering tasty food from morning to evening, seven days a week. Step inside, get comfy, and make yourself at home. How did we think of the name? Bruno is Italian for dark brown, and you can see Brownsea Island across the water from the Quay. The island's name probably comes from Old English Brūnoces īeg = "Brūnoc's island.
