Jolly Olly's Coffee Shop in Basingstoke and Deane - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

This lovely local community cafe is a little gem. It’s worth travelling out of Basingstoke to get her. The food is delicious and the staff so friendly.

Great place for coffee. Was there with a friend and the service was spot on. This Friday a charity event based on laughter. A great charity event. I will be there.

Met some friends for coffee, cake and a catch-up. Staff very friendly and lovely atmosphere. Very good value for money.

Great service Great price Will go there next week. Plenty of parking There Christmas events is very good. New staff are very good and picked up the work quickly. Will be there tomorrow as they sell bread supplied by an excellent local Baker.

Delicious lunch & lovely friendly staff :-) And I love the zero waste goals - thanks for doing a bit to be more friendly to our lovely planet ❤️🌎

Great place for coffee. Friendly and well cooked food. Great menue. Well located with parking. Will be there soon.

The cafe recieved a 5 star health and hygiene and kept there 5 star award. Well done to Jo and her great staff. Well deserved.

Great cafe, visited for lunch had chickpea wrap which was delicious. Although it was busy did not have to wait long and the staff were friendly.

This is a great place for coffee. Great staff and service. I fully recommend. I pop in for coffee 2 to 3 times a week

This place is really warm and welcoming. Staff are very friendly, coffee is excellent and the wide range of food and cake is always delicious.

Super cafe for a coffee break or a light lunch. Staff always friendly and welcoming. Delicious home made cakes. Can recommend the scrumptious gluten free almond and orange cake.with cream and raspberries.

Great cafe with helpfull staff. Was in there this morning. Will be back Tuesday hoping there will be some of Jo's breas pudding.

Jolly Olly’s will always be the best place to go for a bite to eat for breakfast or lunch, a slice of cake with friends or simply for a coffee and a chat! The food is always fresh and made to order and the customer service is phenomenal. Jo and the team always make you feel so welcomed and never fail to bring a smile to your face. 10/10 recommend for anyone!

Lovely little coffee shop with fab staff and amazing snacks and drinks, was the best coffee i have tasted in a long time!

Visited here for lunch on Jubilee weekend, had delicious coronation chicken sandwiches followed by strawberry & cream sponge cake. The staff were friendly and very efficient, will be visiting again.

What a lovely little gem and great for the village, had my first visit today with a friend and her baby . The ladies were very welcoming and the place is spotless and very pretty to sit in . We had a toasted sandwich and tea/ coffee. Was yummy , resisted the gorgeous cakes on display today but all the more reason to go back .

This tea shop was amazing the staff are very friendly and nothing is too trouble and the coffee and sausage sandwiches are amazing. Definitely worth a vist if you love friendly staff and great food and coffee.

Visited here whilst staying with family. Had lovely lunch. Best gluten free cheese toastie ever. Owner was lovely as was the other lady. Nice atmosphere and clean as a new pin. Extra plus we’ll behaved dogs welcome. Definitely going back when here again

This is an excellent coffee shop in the centre of Oakley near Basingstoke. The food is always good and the service from Sophie and Jo is excellent. They are always pleased to see you. Recommend the panini's, always good! well priced as well which is...

On our way to Devon from London, needed a place to stop and eat and this was perfect. Parking right there, good range of sandwiches and cakes to choose from, friendly staff. We sat on the little back garden under cover. We had toasted paninis...

Always tasty food served here, brilliant service, staff are prompt, friendly and attentive. But the hot chocolate isn’t good, tastes like it’s made with water not milk. Such a shame as everything else is perfect.

Visited Basingstoke last week, had morning coffee and midday lunch.... As usual the experience was excellent. Lovely staff and beautiful food. Well done Jolly Ollys, keep up the great work..

Shocking value for money, Poor quality food provided, lack of choice on the hot menu. Couldn’t even wrestle there way out of a paper bag, never mind a decent breakfast. Worth avoiding

We discovered this lovely little coffee shop recently. The homemade cakes are so full of flavour, and they even have gluten free options available. Great for lunches or snacks. I haven’t been there for breakfast yet. They have worked really hard to put effective Covid...

Jolly Ollies has become my favourite coffee shop in Basingstoke.I would thoroughly recommend a visit. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The measures currently in place due to current circumstances are easy to understand. Wait to enter, sanitise hands, order food and drink and pay...

I would not normally write a review but feel the need to, after standing at the counter for quite awhile not even an acknowledgement from the lady behind the counter I was actually thinking I was invisible!! Eventually she looked my way...was looking forward to...

Stopped off with my wife on a Saturday lunchtime during a walk. Excellent quality and value for money cafe with a good range of light meals and cakes. It was very popular with cyclists and very busy but service was prompt and friendly.

My wife and I have just come back from here, after having had a lovely breakfast !! I had the Tomatoes(home grown) on toast with a balsamic vinaigrette and my wife had the American Pancakes with bacon - absolutely delicious !! Menu with sandwiches, toasties...

Very cute, no crazy frills coffee shop with polite staff and it’s lovely to have somewhere to pop into for a coffee and a bit of cake..!

After reading the reviews, I had high expectations. However this place was very average. The food was nothing special and sandwiches just had a choice of brown or white bread from a packet. No granary or artisan breads, which is what I expect from a...

Lovely little spot. Fresh coffee and home made cakes. Reasonable prices and very popular with villagers and groups of cyclists.

Jo and the team always offer a warm welcome and a lovely cup of tea. Jolly Olly’s also hosts many popular community events throughout the year and is the real hub of the village

Il posto è piccolo ma molto carino, personale molto disponibile e accogliente, si mangia molto bene con buonissimi dolci fatti in casa. Noi abbiamo fatto la colazione/brunch qui e siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti... molto adatto anche per i bambini!

Always a great welcome good quality food and very reasonable priced. Best too go out of peak times. Limited parking

Fresh tasty normal brown bread.no butter no mayo perfect.nicely presented plenty of filling lovely salad on the side ..tip...worth a visit

This is a lovely little spot. The staff are very friendly and make all of their cakes and sponges, so nothing mass produced.

After hunting for a bakery in Whitchurch that was closed then going to overtones bakery which had no cakes we decided to get a takeaway of cakes from Oakley to be disappointed at the least.

As a regular customer at Jolly Olly’s I have always been more than satisfied with what they offer and their friendly service - whether I’ve called in for their scrumptious sandwiches, cakes and treats; for lunch, brunch, or a celebration afternoon tea; or simply for a coffee or cool drink. I was confident, therefore, when I placed an order for some treats for visitors to my Open Studios event.

Ive been frequenting Jolly Olly regularly for over a year. The range of sandwiches and snacks is excellent and always served with a smile by the friendly and welcoming staff. The cafe caters for all, is child friendly and has plenty of parking with a few dedicated spaces and enty of offroad and roadside parking within a few steps of the door.

Popped in for quick lunch and coffee. Food is nice and staff are really friendly. Would recommend lunch here

I was made to feel welcome as soon as I entered and went along way towards making my day a good one. The staff and customers are lovely, with both being community driven. With all the seating, you could be mistaken for thinking it is bigger on the inside than the outside. If this confuses you, then don't worry; the pupils of the nearby school will call the Doctor for you. Ideal for people of all ages, whether you are passing through and need a quick cuppa tea or on a ramble and need something bigger. For those who have a dog, your hairy family member will be allowed in if the other customers are okay with it. For the summer months, there is outside seating. Toilets are available, as is parking nearby.

Jo, the owner, has created and nurtured a community feel to the café through different events held there. Service is very friendly and quick. Food and coffee of a high standard and most enjoyable. A lovely café to spend time in, highly recommended.

Easy to find, got there fairly early in the morning there was only one customer so far. It was a bit chilly in the premises. Staff were friendly and the coffee was nice. Looking round it is clearly a community place and much used. Very convenient for the Crematorium which we were unfortunately were on the way to.

Had lovely catch up with friend over nice food and coffee. Was quick services and friendly staff. Great for light bites

We needed somewhere for a works get-together with a couple of small children and wanted somewhere a little different to the chains in town. Really glad we chose Jolly Olly's. Friendly service, good food at good value and decent portions and choice of cakes and biscuits. They don't take cards but luckily we had cash.

Absolutely lovely little coffee room.

I was in the village on business and popped in for a coffee and snack the staff are very friendly the good was nice

Como habíamos llamado a entregar una carta cerca. Había café y un atún rojo y cebolla que panini. Muy sabrosa. Conseguimos hablar con algunas mujeres de tejer y fue invitado a unirse a ellos la próxima semana. Un buen lugar al que volver. Un montón...

Llegamos sobre las 11. 30 y el café estaba agradablemente concurrido, pero no hay problema para encontrar una mesa.

Mitad de regalo para mi hijo y yo para disfrutar de un almuerzo juntos. Visita a la tienda de café Jolly olly por recomendación de un amigo. Muy cálida bienvenida. Nos sentimos en casa. Dado un montón de tiempo para elegir nuestra comida, que estaba recién preparado y servido rápidamente. Mención especial a George que nos sirve tan bien hoy. Volveremos.

La comida era de buena calidad, pero el servicio era muy lento. Tardó 5 minutos antes de nuestra presencia ha sido reconocido incluso. Intentamos reservar una mesa para 2 horas antes alguien contestó el teléfono.

I use Jolly Olly's as a meeting place as they always have a table, sell gorgeous cakes and very friendly.Thoroughly recommend if you don't want to go into town for coffee and cake!

I bet Worzel Gummidge and Aunt Sally would love it at Jolly Olly's and I bet they would agree with my following pleasing review.My friend and I are frequent visitors to Jolly Olly's in the beautiful quaint village of Oakley which is just a 5 minute car or 15-20 minute bus ride from Basingstoke town. This is a small popular and very friendly establishment, offering a good selection of teas and coffees, cakes and sandwiches. The warm welcome is the same for both local and those visitors just passing through. The location is within a minutes walk of a picture postcard village cottage and pond scene. Well worth a visit!

A lovely village coffee shop with great service.The cakes are yummy. I have not tried any of the hot food but from what I've seen, it looks very delicious.If you are on your own it is a place to feel comfortable in.A real boon to the village and I'm so glad it's only a 10 minute walk away!

Good place for both regulars and visitors. Wide range of cakes, lunches and teas as well as coffee! Very pleasant staff and surroundings - and very children-friendly.

Friendly staff and handy for the school run. Always get a warm welcome from the staff and other regular customers. Good selection of cakes but my only wish is for some small packs of biscuits to purchase to have with my cuppa

My friend and I have just visited Jolly Olly's for lunch - a stop half way around our walk. I had a chicken and green pesto wrap which although it was really very nice it was a disgusting size for the money. £4.50 for a tiny wrap. I was really annoyed and should have mentioned this and should have declined to accept it. My friend had a bacon and sausage bap which cost £3.80 - this was much better value. If I have the same experience again I will not accept my order.

A lively place with lots for children to do. At the time of our visit it was very busy and they were under lot of pressure however they coped well. The coffees were fine and there was a good selection of snacks and more substantial food. Parking is either next door or across the road by the school.A great spot for a snack or drink.

Jolly Olly's was a lovely lunch time experience. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food was really good quality and good value for money. It was nice to see a large variety of options, including gluten free savoury and sweet choices, majority being home-made. I would highly recommend Jolly Olly's.

Friendly and helpful staff, good access, own parking space. Food was good but downside was the limited menu.

Jolly Ollys' always has a nice welcoming atmosphere. Coffee is excellent and snacks varied and tasty. I've never not been made welcome and I've always had a chat with staff who are all helpful and friendly. Other customers are friendly and chatty which is a nice bonus :-)

This is a friendly place to relax, chat with friends or just soak up the atmosphere. The coffee and food is great and it is table service with a smile. What more could you want?

What makes this place very special is EVERYONE is welcome!! You could arrive and be the only person in which case the lovely owner/staff will happily chat to you, an hour later the café could be full of noisy groups of visiting cyclists/familes with children or friends then you could wait a little while to get your order but MOST people are happy to wait for the fabulous food on offer I fit into all the above groups. There is always something going on Quiz/puzzle nights/charity fundraising. A real village asset.

We've been to this cafe twice. Both times haven't been particularly enjoyable. It's nondescript. The decor is functional (modern and style-less) and the tables crammed in. Service slow. The first table we chose today was by the front window and there was dirt on the chair and mould on the ceiling above. We chose a second table a little further in and there were plugs by the table which were grimy and the window- ledge there also didn't look very clean. The range on the menu is very good indeed and the staff are very nice and work very hard. But it is quite pricey. Worst of all though is their system: you go to the counter to order and they do one complete order at a time. We only wanted two coffees but had to wait ages as there were four orders in front of ours all wanting hot food. Today it was unfortunate as about 30 cyclists all came in about the same time. The staff did well to manage them but it was extremely noisy and chaotic. We're pleased the cafe is supported and that is services as a hub for the community. But it was uncomfortable for us. I do think that a group like this taking the cafe should put their orders in in advance. Or just book the place out. If we'd realised what the whole experience was going to be like we'd have happily gone elsewhere. Having waited quite a while for the coffees I'd got hungry and ordered some chocolate tiffin. It was smallish and tasteless.

We, members of Basingstoke Ramblers, enjoyed a brisk walk from Stratton Park to Oakley where our leader had wisely taken the precaution of prebooking places for our half way refreshments in this this cosy family run coffee shop and tearoom. Service was friendly and cheerful in a great atmosphere where patience was much tested but unphased and prevailed over multiple orders and we finally tracked down the missing Earl Grey which one of our number having ordered Breakfast tea was too polite to return. Great selection of fresh coffee,teas and home made cakes. Clientele, for the most part local, enjoying the personal service with books and magazines in a welcoming neighbourhood club format. Mainly light meals ,cakes scones,home made soup etc. My coffee and pastry came to £4.20.

Always a welcome smile and pleasant tea and other fare without the usual "sales push" in the big town chains.

Just a lovely, lovely, and rarely found commodity - a small cafe, independent, which welcomes all sorts of people and clearly serves a massive function in the community. Great buzz, helpful staff, fab panini and some lovely toys for my son to play with. Very reasonable prices too. Highly recommended.

This is just a very nice cosy cafe, very clean with good wholesome food. There were several customers in the cafe during my visit, all eating something different, it all looked good.I will visit again for sure

My boys and I decided to cycle from Basingstoke to Oakley to Jolly Olly's this morning to have a half term treat of breakfast out. Really glad we did. Fabulous crispy bacon and maple syrup with pancakes, delicious coffee, a warm and welcoming cafe and it's obvious that it's a very popular place. Lovely to hear the staff greeting their customers by name so it's a real hub of the community. Keep up the good work ladies! Sallie, Tom and PaulLOVELOCK

Nice little coffee shop in the centre of Oakley. Provides drinks, cakes and sandwiches/light lunches. It's a popular meeting place for locals and nobody seems to mind if you linger a while chatting over drinks and nibbles.

Warm friendly hosts Great coffee Good snacks For a cyclist the cake slices were a little on the small side but I will be back

Very nice, friendly and clean. Good for some lunch. Panini was made fresh on the spot and nice coffee. Will go back again.

Lovely little coffee shop in the village of Oakley. Friendly staff and good choice of food on the menu and wide selection of coffee. Always made to feel welcome and nice and clean. Approx 5 parking spaces to the side but parking opposite at school layby as long as you're outside school times. Can be a little pricey though especially if visiting with children.

Perfect local coffee shop in the lovely village of Oakley. Warm & friendly welcome. We shared a variety of sandwiches & cakes with both tea & coffee which were delicious.

We have been here before on a couple of occasions and eaten and/or left before being seated. The service has improved tenfold since the last time we visited. It was good to see a wider range of home made cakes this time rather than the Costco offerings we noticed on the last visit. We both asked for the chicken, red onion, cheese and pesto panini. They both arrived without the red onion but we were hungry and they were very tasty. I asked for a green tea and was surprised when peppermint tea arrived. Although I could taste it was green peppermint tea it would have been nice to have the option. A definite improvement over the previous visits.

In the lovely village of oakley, this is a great place to stop for a drink and bite to eat. Always assured of a warm welcome, Jo and the team are very friendly. The home made cakes are too tasty to resist and today's carrot cake was delicious.

Decent Coffee shop if you need a refreshment and don't fancy one of the local pubs. Friendly staff, fairly broad offerings.

Lovely staff, nice friendly atmosphere and a huge pot of tea! We have been in 4 or 5 times now whilst out house hunting. Each time we have had a bacon sandwich, loads of bacon perfectly cooked. Last time we tried one of the home made cakes - gorgeous.

Excellent lunch and delicious cakes in this friendly little cafe in the beautiful village of Oakley. Well worth a visit.

Lovely village coffee shop with friendly people! Very clean and happy decor. I had a latte that was nice and strong and really tasty...I am fussy when it comes to coffee!

I've been in here a few times with a group of friends. The staff are always lovely and friendly but I'm afraid that I do agree with a previous review that it's a bit pricey. Over £16 for two paninis, coffees and cake. A lovely although stark, village coffe shop but town centre prices.

I don't go very often, but when I do I'm always welcomed kindly and have friendly chit chat. Never been disappointed with the quality of the food or drinks. Plus they have an actual dog bowl for water which is always nice for my pup

My family and I have been visiting Jolly Olly regularly since shortly after it opened a few years ago. We normally walk there along a path through the fields and the village of Oakley. There are about a dozen tables, ranging from two to six seats, although special arrangements can be made. In warm weather there are tables outdoors. You are sure of a warm welcome from the delightful hard-working staff, and you can choose tea, coffee or hot chocolate, cold drinks, sandwiches, panini, home-made soup, and perhaps best of all an ever-changing assortment of delicious home-made cakes - including some that are gluten-free. You can book a set-piece meal, such as high tea or cream tea, which is excellent value; or just walk in and be sure of a seat at any time (well, nearly any time!) The best thing about Jolly Olly is the friendly, informal atmosphere; it's just like dropping in on friends (and friends who bake amazingly well!)

We love Jolly Olly's. You get exactly what you ask for and it takes really good. A lovely selection of cakes and really friendly staff.

I have been going to Jolly Ollies for ages and think it's a marvellous place to meet friends and have a long chat. You are always made so welcome.

ive been going to Olly's since it opened and have become a loyal customer. Nothing is ever too much trouble for Jo, Julie, Maureen and the team. The food is locally sourced and delicious, the coffee is excellent, and the atmosphere could not be more welcoming. Prices compare well with more anonymous venues, and at Olly's you feel less like a customer and more like a friend.

After hearing lots of great reviews about jolly olly's - my friend and I popped in for lunch this week and I will definaltely be going back. Lovely place to have a bite to eat and a chat.. staff were very friendly and helpful, service was excellent and more importantly the food was wonderful.. would definatley recommend a visit..!!

Very welcoming,friendly people.Clean and tidy.Even have a small play area for the children.A lovely cup of coffee and the Toasties are delicious especially on a cold day.Wide range of sandwiches,cakes,teas,coffee.Also offer a takeaway service for the passing trade.Well worth a visit.Check it out you won't be disappointed.

We always try to drop in to Jolly Ollie's when we are in Oakley.This lovely little tea / coffee shop is a social hub in the village.Super freshly made sandwiches and a range of ever changing light meals are available as well as delicious hand made cakes.The staff are always welcoming and helpful.My favourite coffee is the maple latte.They also offer free wifi.A popular local meeting point.If you are in the area and fancy a cuppa or a bite to eat give it a go.You will not be disappointed.

Been here a couple of times. Always clean and welcoming. Cakes, sandwiches etc are always fresh. Well attended within the community. Only problem for me was the seats are too hard and can't sit for long. Otherwise fabulous.

We visited Jolly Olly's around 9:30am midweek and received a warm, friendly welcome on arrival. A number of tables were occupied by groups of mums having a cuppa and a chat having dropped their children off at the schools opposite and there were a few tables occupied by single people who were enjoying the free wi-fi and friendly banter with the staff.We enjoyed the coffee and the bacon sandwiches, and we must return another time to sample some of the appetising cakes which were on display.Well worth a visit!

Enjoyed a lovely lunch with my daughter as a treat. Warm welcome as we arrived, plenty of choice and a very nice selection of cakes to choose from! All served with a smile. Look forward to visiting again, thank you x

We visit Jollys most days. The quality of the beverages and food is of a high standard and the welcome always makes you feel comfortable . The staff are friendly and the repartee is good.A welcome addition to the village when it opened and has been a boost to everyone.Well done to you all.Tony/Brenda

What a delightful little gem to stumble across whilst out on a family walk! What we loved about this coffee shop was the good old fashioned, warm welcome - in comparison to the impersonal Costa experience, where you're taken for granted, here they were really pleased to see us. We will certainly be dropping by again.

With an hour to kill while the dog was at the groomers we decided a coffee break was in order. Jolly Olly's provided the perfect pit stop with a couple if delicious skinny lattes! The only problem is, once my wife has taken a look at the scrumptious home made cakes on the counter I always end up having to buy a slice or two . Excellent friendly service and a great range of tucker means that we always go back and the owner, Jo' always has time for a chat to get to know her customers which is just what you would expect from a village coffee shop that serves the community. Thankfully very different to your Costas of this world.Will we go back..........ALWAYS

I would certainly recommend Jolly Ollys to anyone in the Oakley area. They serve great bacon sandwiches, a lovely cup of green tea and a good range of cakes. It was very busy when I was there, which is always a good sign, but this didn't hinder the excellent first class service that I received. There is a lovely atmosphere here and it is made even better by the the owners (Jo and Andrew) and their great team. I will definitely be going again when I'm in the Oakley area.

My wife and I visit this coffee shop every day and simply can't fault the food and service. Very reasonable price and good standard

All I can say is wow… this place is super warm and friendly, excellent place to meet up with friends before or after enjoying one of the local walks… and the Coffee, food and cakes are to die for, wonderful locally sourced selection (actually spoilt for choice) and very reasonably priced... The staff are exceptionally helpful and patient, which comes in handy when I can’t decide what to have..:) – I often recommend this coffee shop to my friends and they all agree, this is one of the best in Hampshire – highly recommended..!

Whilst walking part of the Wayfarers Walk with my sister we took a detour to Oakley for a pub lunch but we found Jolly Ollys instead.We were welcomed by a very friendly team who quickly produced excellent bacon butties with lattes and finished off with gorgeous homemade cakes.superb!

I stop for a coffee here often. The staff are really friendly and it's always nice inside. Very good choices of food available. If I have my Son with me he makes good use of the sweet shop inside. What more could you possibly want in a village coffee shop. Excellent.
