We went for a nice walk to see the dinosaurs in the park so we had hot chocolate with marshmallow and whipped cream, very yummy 😋 and pint of Posh draft beer 🍺 delicious and we walked along the lake on a beautiful sunny autumn day. The stuff were very helpful and friendly. Atmosphere quite good

My girlfriend and I enjoyed our coffees and cake, but I'm going to be brutally honest. This place is in desperate need of a bloody good deep clean. The plate that my plate was presented on could have been cleaned too. It's a nice space and great for families. The staff are friendly even when they are busy. The place just needs a polish.

Overcrowded, tiny and no space, but what really bothers me is how miserable and completely unfriendly the mostly female servers are and how disinterested they seem in giving the minimum amount of 'customer service'. EDIT: I have found this consistently even after returning.... I love Brown & Green usually. Just the servers need a little educating on how to appear at least a little bit more welcoming. Otherwise the food is nice and generally nice place.

Crisps were very wet looks like the package was open or had an air leak maybe they were just old, I handed them back in person at the till but they didn't seem to care about it.That made me think sandwich was also not right. 😞

Love this place, my go to on a weekend for breakfast. The place is usually super busy so it can be cramped when trying to get a seat. Only ask is please get rid of those brown bread rolls!! A bacon sandwich also shouldn’t have a salad salad

The place looks quite nice and welcoming. We had just coffees and cakes. My espresso was very weak and tasted bad and it was very watery. Either it was made using the same coffee used for my wife's flat white or there was very little coffee in the machine. It was like dirty water. Went back to the bar to ask to have a new one but the people behind the desk were chatting to each other and did not acknowledge my presence. I just left cause I was not bothered having the discussion... My wife had a coffee and walnuts cake and had a stomachache. It was probably old and left outside for too long. It is a real shame as this place could be a great brunch/coffee venue but we will never come back.

Very slow service, expensive for what it is (eg croissant £3.60) and the coffee wasn’t what I ordered (cortado, but got something more like a latte), reminded me of places 10 years ago where the staff were a bit precious! Fortunately there is another alternative in the Park

Unbelievably rude staff. After waiting at the side of the counter for about ten minutes for a coffee, I went to see what had happened to it. There were two staff members dancing away. With the manager walking by without a care in the world. I asked the poor girl at the till if it was on its way, at which point one of the dancers got really stroppy and made me the coffee. She then made a show of taking it all around back to the other side of the counter in some kind of pathetic attempt at punishing me for daring to disturb her dance practice. The manager was standing by staring at me with a smirk on her face in solidarity with her friend leaving the girl at the counter squirming with embarrassment. Apart from the girl at the counter, the staff are simply ignorant and unpleasant people. I was the only costumer but clearly I was asking way too much of them when I asked for a coffee. Don’t bother with this place, go to the hut next to the stage in the park. They are always lovely there.

Regular stop if we are in the park. We really like the decaf latte with coconut milk + any flavors really. It can be super busy for take aways and I ended up waiting nearly 20 mins for 2 drinks here before. They have many staff members but super busy! If you wish to drink the at the table. Find a table first and at the till tell them your table number. We got our decafs quicker this way and could enjoy the vibe more.

Beware if you are vegetarian or vegan. I have been given a pork sausage in my vegetarian meal when ordering through Deliveroo. This isn’t the first time either this has happened. Given there is such a big vegetarian/vegan menu it’s worrying this is being mixed up.

Always nice to visit a cafe in the park, however, the food is very overpriced, being charged £10 for beans on toast! Opted for vegan cheese which was an extra £1 (nice surprised on the bill) really expect more for my money than half a tin of baked beans on two slices of bread.

Amazing breakfast, amazing location and amazing service. Really enjoyed breakfast here at Brown & Green life cafe. It is located inside Crystal Palace park with seating both inside and outside. So when the weather is good it’s an amazing place to go and eat outside with lovely scenery outside. Would highly recommend this place and their veggie breakfast was very tasty.

I really enjoyed my breakfast. Scrabbled eggs on toasted sourdough bread with feta, chillies and coriander. Lots of options on the menu and a great selection of pastries as well. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because of how busy it is (clearly not the cafe’s fault). Because it’s in the park there are many children and babies so the noise level is high. If you have kids that’s a great place to go because there’s space for baggies etc. If you want a quiet breakfast you can go to Brown and Green in the triangle (Crystal Palace). I like both :D

It's nicely placed in the park, however was extremely busy on this sunny day and the staff members were doing their best but it did seem to lack a solid structure as to wheat to do when there's so many people queuing up outside and inside the café. wanted to stay in to grab something but there was no were to sit and in the cafe as it was rammed with people. Maybe an expansion is the next option as a number of places were taken up by people with kids

Hummingbird cake and vegan toffee n ginger cake - y’all charged me +£7 for these dutty cakes. They tasted of no ingredients they ‘contained’ which were supposed to be ginger, pineapple and toffee. All I tasted was pure sugar, disgusting I wouldn’t be surprised if I wake up next morning with type 2 diabetes. And the icing tasted of cheap margarine. I bet Poundland cakes taste better than your +£4 treats. Improve your recipes please…

I used to be a regular customer a few years ago. Even though it was expensive, the food quality and portion sizes were good. I went back there today, but the portions have shrunk considerably, while the prices remain high. I ordered the B&G breakfast, but the two rashers of bacon, beans, and the sausage were cold. The spinach and salad leaves were swimming in balsamic vinegar, and the single fried egg white was runny. I was very disappointed with this breakfast, especially considering the hefty price tag of £9.95. I definitely won't be going back there again.

Went in yesterday afternoon with my children, took a couple of menus from a trolley and sat down. Very rude waitress came up and snatched menus from us saying the kitchen was closed which was why menus were on trolley which itself was not an issue but her rude, hostile manner was and was very upsetting for my autistic son. Certainly won't be returning.

Having been using B&G for some time, and regularly have the bacon bap, at Sunny Sydders and Palace Train station , so thought I would give the Park B&G a go , needless to way, well below par, I was not impressed with the pre-cooked manky small bits of bacon, in a premium priced bap!! I think next time try a Punge high street fry up cafe , its got to be better than this?

Been here twice, and haven't been impressed either time. Went today and had the humous plate. It had two huge pieces of raw garlic in it, and at £9.50 for a bit of below average humous and (for some reason) naan was very expensive. I had about 10 mints afterwards and still couldn't get rid of the taste of garlic for hours. Previously I've had a sandwich which was 90% bread

No matter how busy this gets (particularly at weekend) service is always super friendly. Drinks are made nicely, good sandwich and soft drink selection. Dog friendly. I will say though there are a some very wild customers with their kids almost everytime I go making the most crazy mess with their kids chucking food around, I really feel for the staff having to clear this up, kids can be messy but tidy up after your family - it’s so rude and entitled to expect the staff to regularly deal with it - so much food chucked under table and other mess and parents just scoop kids up and waltz out. Dogs obviously love all the half eaten sandwiches and snacks on floor though.

Strange service this morning, staff seemed zoned out, I wasn't greeted by the staff, I had to walk round the staff standing by the menus to view, still no acknowledgement, then as I ordered another staff member pulled out a racist trump hat. Hot chocolate, from quite possibly the day before, was making 2 tables dirty and more tables were dirty on the back bench so I had to ask for this to be cleaned. Very awkward. The zombie waitress didn't take my empty plates for over half an hour - until I moved them to another table. The B&G breakfast has good ingredients but it was on a bed of balsamic doused rocket salad which gave everything even the toast an off taste due to the vinegar. I can only presume management are away this morning and some staff members are behaving unprofessionally. Such a shame as I am a regular and haven't had this level of non-service before. Must have been the staff party last night...

I got an oat milk flat white and it was the best coffee I think I've ever had! I also got a mushroom and halloumi bap and it was so tasty. Edit 2023: definitely gone down hill sadly. The coffee isn't what it used to be. I don't know if it's an issue of popularity with the place (good for them!) and not being able to meet demand with prior quality or what. It's still good if you're in the park, but it's not somewhere to go out of the way for like it once was.

Great park cafe with venue space above. Sometimes you get treated to the sounds of children singing from upstairs or the stars of the West End rehearsing show tunes. They also have themed markets in there sometimes which are good to visit and usually dog friendly. It's a great stop off on a dog walk. There's usually a water bowl ready for thirsty pooches. The food is good and the coffee. I recommend the tortilla bowl. Every so often I receive the wrong order but it is very loud in the cafe and it's always sorted without a problem

Stopped off during a bike. I've not been here in ages...bought a cold sausage roll for £3.25 (which I thought was pretty excessive considering it was not very big), despite it being cold? It was very tasty and well seasoned. I wasn't offered the option to have it heated or a hot one as an alternative at the till, so I assumed that was not an option. £2 for the coke is standard these days. The staff were friendly and there was plenty of seating.

Lovely place in the heart of Crystal Palace park! They had a DJ playing when I visited and had a booth selling frozen margs, daiquiri and froze! We tried the latter and it was so good, just what we needed! Plenty vegan options inside the cafe, from pastries, thru salads to fish finger sandwiches! We went for the pea and bean spread Aussies with scrambled tofu! Unfortunately we found a hair in the dish and the bread was slightly burnt so I cannot give 5* but otherwise very much enjoyed the food and the atmosphere!

I've been supporting brown & green since they first started and I'm just getting increasingly disappointed with the customer service. The staff were reluctant to clear dirty tables, I had issues paying due to the card machine not working and they all seemed annoyed. Staff were not communicating with each other effectively and its the second brown & green cafe that have forgotten half my order in 2 weeks. There seems to be evermore attempts to grow the empire but there's been no warmth or care in the three sites I've visited this month.

Been coming here for coffee since it opened and have been a customer at the branch at the station also since it opened no issues. Today got served a very weak coffee asked if they mistakenly put one shot. And asked for fresh one and got served the same coffee plus she dropped at the counter so hard that it spilled! Hopefully it’s a one off! If I wanted a cup of boiling water I would have asked 😂😂 this is supposed to be a black coffee.

Lovely spot for a park lunch — I really enjoyed my vegan fish finger sandwich, it was thoughtfully put together with nice tartare sauce and salad and a lovely light bread roll. Enjoyed a vegan magnum too! As you’d expect from a park cafe, atmosphere can err into toddler/young child chaos/noise/extremely unchill vibes, especially during summer months, but this is my problem for being a misanthrope, not theirs.

The second Penge eatery I have found to discriminate against registered,uniformed service dogs and refuses to let them enter the premises... thus preventing the disabled human entering their cafe too. Very disappointing conduct.
