What Our Guests Say
Lovely Turkish and Mediterranean cafe serving brunch, lunch style menu. Selection of mezes, fresh stuffed breads, breakfasts, pasta etc. Had a party of 10 sat on the terrace on a beautiful day, plenty of seats inside too. All were excellent and big portions enough for sharing. Really like the Olive Cafe and try and visit whenever I'm in the area. A*
An absolute feast at Olive Cafe! We ordered the traditional breakfast platter and the menemen, and everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Beautiful presentation, cozy vibe, and delicious food. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!
This cosy, family-run café serves an excellent breakfast menu in a warm, welcoming setting. I went for the Eggs Royale, perfectly poached eggs with silky hollandaise sauce over smoked salmon, a classic done right. I'll definitely be back soon.
Incredible brunch spot! As someone who loves Turkish food, this place is a win. It has a variety of dishes to offer. We had three dishes off the menu and all dishes were delicious and flavourful. The staff are also lovely!
Very polite and well mannered staff, take orders from your table if you are eating in, have dairy free milk options. Food is made fresh and is very nice. A lovely little place to go, myself and my daughter really did enjoy it.
I recently dined at a charming brunch restaurant that truly impressed me. I started with the Gozleme served with hummus, couscous, salad, and olives. For dessert, we enjoyed an array of baklava-inspired treats that were absolutely delicious. A must-try!
