Our Journey

Welcome to The Olive Cafe – A Taste of Tradition in Every Bite

At The Olive Cafe, we're more than just a cafe; we're a community gathering spot, a place where every dish tells a story, and every customer becomes part of our family. Established in 2020 in the quaint neighbourhood of Palmers Green, we set out to create a home away from home where the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and baked goods welcomes you each day.

Our story began with a simple dream: to share the rich, comforting flavours of traditional Turkish cuisine with our neighbours. We drew inspiration from the bustling streets of Istanbul and the warm hospitality of Turkish homes, bringing a slice of this culture to Palmers Green. The Olive Cafe is a labor of love, a place where old recipes meet new friends.

From the flaky layers of our baklava to the savoury goodness of our Turkish-style breakfast sandwiches, each ingredient is handpicked for quality and authenticity. We take pride in serving a variety of Turkish pastries, each crafted with care and traditional techniques passed down through generations. Our menu also features a selection of hearty English breakfast options, ensuring that no matter where you're from or what you crave, you'll find something to love.

We believe in sustainability, community, and unparalleled quality. This means sourcing our ingredients from local suppliers who share our passion for excellence. It means creating an environment where families, friends, and solo adventurers can all find comfort. But, most of all, it means consistently delivering a dining experience that you can trust to be delicious, memorable, and genuinely from the heart.

Whether you're starting your day with us or stopping by for a midday treat, we invite you to taste the difference that dedication makes. At The Olive Cafe, every meal is an occasion, and every patron is a guest of honour. Join us for a bite, a drink, and a moment of relaxation. Let's make today wonderful together.

We can't wait to welcome you to The Olive Cafe – where every visit is an experience to cherish.
