Only able to manage one visit on this trip but it was, always bright and busy - for a good reason - the food is stunning and the owners a delightful dynamic duo. We have had lunch here often in previous years and will no doubt do so again. The Lentil soup, teamed with a Borek was perfect and the slow cooked lamb in a Ciabatta roll is another favourite. Thank you again and see you in 2024!

Lovely people and great cutomer service. Every dish was fabulous, fresh tasting and delicious. Really good value, a mezze box goes a long way. Looking forward to next visit

We had been to this lovely establishment a day prior and had some amazing tapas. Included was hummus, carrot salad and stuffed vine leaves! Delicious. Today we had two superb latte's which surpassed my expectations by a coffee mile. It was hands down the best latte of my adult life. We also had two vegan boreks, these scrumptious savoury pastries were the highlight of our morning. Thank you for your wonderful service, you are a pillar of the Kendal community. Keep up the good work.

We had a wonderful lunch: delicious, fresh & unusual food combined with brilliant, friendly service. Lentil soup was wonderfully flavoursome, wholesome and tasty. The boreks were so fresh and tasted fantastic and the salads were delicious too. The cafe is a gem; well worth seeking out. One of the best.

I?ve met members of my family here on half a dozen occasions now and it never fails to impress with the good quality of the food. The cafe is quite small but instead of this making it feel cramped it makes it feel more intimate and friendly and the couple who run it are more than happy to help with any questions that visitors have. I?ll definitely be back again.Vegetarian options: A good selection of vegetarian options.

What can I say about Café Olive except... if you're in Kendal, eat here! This was our fourth visit. First, by accident, second, third, and fourth visits by design! It's a treat and a revelation all in one! Go early, though, so you get plenty of choice from their gorgeous menu! Once it's gone, it's gone! Traditional Turkish food, so don't expect chips, but you absolutely won't regret it! Plenty for G Effers, like my chap(GF) to enjoy, too! You feel like you're abroad even on a rainy afternoon in Cumbria! Taste sensations in a relaxed atmosphere with great service! Takeaway offer is also tremendous! Just go!Vegetarian options: Excellent choices. Boreks, mezes, soup (delicious Turkish lentil), egg dishes, stuffed aubergines, plenty to tempt vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: My chap is gluten intolerant, and there's plenty to choose from. Meatballs are a really lovely option. Tasty, filling, and highly recommended.
