Olive’s Norwich is a small breakfast and brunch café at 40 Elm Hill, one of the city’s best preserved historic streets. The cosy room and popular morning service give it the feel of a neighbourhood favourite in the heart of the Cathedral Quarter.
Cooked breakfasts are the main attraction, ranging from familiar full English combinations to more elaborate house versions. Eggs Benedict, thick toast, bubble and squeak and white pudding are among the details that have helped build the café’s reputation.
Vegetarian and vegan breakfasts receive the same attention as the meat dishes, with plant based sausages, chickpea scramble and other substantial components. Gluten free choices and staff awareness of dietary requirements make the menu more useful to mixed groups.
Coffee, tea, juice and milkshakes accompany breakfast, brunch and lighter lunch visits. The café accepts bookings, which can be helpful at busy times, and its Elm Hill location makes it an appealing starting point for exploring central Norwich.
Address: 40 Elm Hill, Norwich NR3 1HG, England
