Olive Kitchen & Deli

Such amazing food at decent prices. The guys in here made me a dish that wasn’t on the menu. They always go out of their way to satisfy their customers and are the most friendly small family business in the town. They make various fresh juices, have a great coffee menu, milk alternatives, and much to choose from on the food menu. Would highly recommend.

Funnily enough I had walked past this cafe several times thinking it was a health food shop until I saw a favourable review on social media. Today I stopped in to try the Full English Breakfast. Its a very nicely decorated cafe with decent furniture and friendly staff. A good start. The menu is very healthy as opposed to the 'traditional' greasy spoon but that's no bad thing. The coffee was good, a nice flavour with just a hint of bitterness although perhaps a little small in size.I also chose to have a healthy juice drink - I can't recall exactly what was in it but it was much better than I expected. The main event was the fry up and I wasn't disappointed. I've had fry up's all over the world and while this wasn't the best - that award goes to a cafe in Banff Canada - it was far from shabby. The fried eggs were cooked to perfection, no runny white and the yolks with just a hint of firmness. The mushrooms were good too while the baked beans were just baked beans. The hash browns were crispy without being greasy or mushy. The sausage was the real highlight - a Cumberland style with enough pepperiness and a nice amount of porky salty fatness. And it was cooked just right so that the skin gave out that little ripping sound when cut. Lovely! The negatives - not that they were really negative - were the bacon which didn't have much flavour or texture and the toast which was a pappy white bread. I would suggest a better quality bacon - maybe streaky - cooked a bit crisper and a perhaps more robust bread such as a seeded or crusty bloomer. All in all, it was a decent breakfast priced at just £6.95. I honestly would have paid more especially with different bacon and bread. Well worth a visit and I shall return especially for the sausages.

Lovely little hideaway… Food was delicious, staff friendly, and very clean. Will definitely go back if I am in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brunch, coffee was lush topped of with a friendly atmosphere.

Excellent Mediterranean Breakfast and Turkish coffee. Service and food very quick and efficient. Nice cafe, pleasant staff. Thank you, look forward to our next visit.

Amazing service as always. Really friendly staff. Food is amazing. We always return here. We wouldn’t have our coffee dates anywhere else!!

Best deli in Epping hands down! In a crowded market these guys surpass the rest rather easily - not a fan of the new place on the high street, but these especially when it comes to quality food, service and just a friendly interaction all round are amazing. I take my family here whenever we are out and about the high street, parking can be a bit difficult, but theres a few pay & display places nearby

Delicious food, reasonably priced too considering the area. They appear family run, but not sure, none-the-less extremely polite staff and very welcoming
