Olimpia Bakery in Thanet

Local bakery with tables to sit down. Choice of drinks and a selection of savoury pastries and a wide selection of sweet treats We had a coffee and a hot chocolate. Add a couple of cakes and the visit was a pleasant one. You order and pay at the counter and they deliver to your table. Staff were both pleasant and fast at serving

This bakery feels like it has been picked up from Greece and placed in Margate, it is absolutely amazing. I had a stroll from the beach in search of something nice for lunch and I hit the jackpot. Pies, pasties, pastries, sandwiches, cakes…….. you name it they have got it. I got a ham and cheese pie and a spinach and feta slice both of which were delicious. I could rave on about this bakery but instead check it out for yourself & if Bakeries are your thing you are in for a real treat.

What a gem! Found this place by accident but immediately had to go in! Great coffee and pastry! Wish I could have tried more!

The food is outrageously good.... And so reasonably priced! Staff are super lovely and efficient. Cafe itself is immaculately clean and bright. Make sure you have both savoury pastry AND cake!!!

We left the beach for lunch and wanted something other than fish &chips and found this wonderful bakery/cafe just nearby. What a wonderful place. There was so much to Choose from. We settled for the spinach and feta pie which was lovely. Coffee and tea also exceptional. The grandchildren loved seeing (and trying) all the delights on offer. Very reasonably priced too. Can you open one in Ashford please?!

Wonderful cafe in Margate. Fantastic selection of beautiful cakes and baklava along with delicious coffee. Super friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Fancy place serving good coffee but only average tasting food. Pastries were too crispy and wasn’t flavourful. It certainly looks attractive from the outside though.

Needed a coffee etc before the England/Switzerland match. Friendly fast service. Strong flat white. Delicious baklava (not too sweet) & tasty feta & spinach pastry. Amazing selection of cakes/pastries.

Spotted this place when we were looking for lunch. It certainly offers a change from sandwiches! All sorts of authentic Greek food, and the most beautiful cakes. Highly recommended.

A first class bakery. Great food and drink , friendly staff and very well maintained facilities. There’s nothing not to like. Have been several times and I’ve now adopted it as my go to breakfast location when I’m in Margate. Highly recommend 👍🏻

Walked in and greeted with a smile, so much choice of cakes and treats. Was engaged with while I was choosing and had a laugh with the staff who helped me choose what to have while he made my coffee. Instead of waiting they made me sit down and brought it all over to me. Great soya cappacino!! Really warm feel and can’t recommend it enough. Avoid costa and head over the road to here! You won’t be disappointed!! Well done guys! 👏🏼 👏🏼

Hot spot! Best place in town for coffee, and cake! So much choice all delicious! The staff are really lovely... Definitely pop in and say hi! Peace be the journey! Xx

Oh, I am so glad I diverted my shopping trip to try this bakery and patisserie. My eyes popped out of my head when I saw the amazing display of goodies. It was difficult to make a choice, and not buy everything. I was delighted with my choice, and enjoyed my treats with a coffee later.

Oh my gosh, by pure luck passed by this place looking for somewhere for a light lunch so popped in (having left a cafe that wanted £13 for a sandwich!), & it was wonderful! Lovely strong proper coffee, panini was great but best of all were the baklava & cakes, such a selection of indulgence, the custard one & all the small/mini ones so good. Went back the next day too but it's going to take a while to try everything, which is exactly what we intend to do! To make it perfect all of the staff (family I'm sure) were really friendly & helpful, even recognised us on just our 2nd visit, please do try here & you shouldn't be disappointed.

Would highly recommend visiting the Olimpia Bakery in the High Street for a great coffee and their sumptuous array of homemade and speciality cakes and savouries. A very smart and tidy cafe and a very warm welcome by the staff who were excellent! I would definitely recommend a visit when you are in Margate

The cakes are amazing!! It can be quite pricey but the quality of food is very high. The place is very clean, tables cleared very quickly. Ideal for a coffee & lunch stop. Ideal lcation too!!

Food was awesome, both the savoury stuff and the sweet stuff. The people working there were very kind and helpful. Price-quality is probably off the charts in a very good way. I would definitely go back there so a meal. The variety is just amazing.

Lovely coffee and breakfast pastries. Nicely clean and modern spacious premises - friendly staff and an amazing selection of cakes and baklava

Well all of us can only say is wonderful. The staff are so friendly, the choice of fantastic Greek cakes pies and baklava was just amazing. The flavours were wonderful and reminded us of the local places where eat in the surrounding area of Aptera in Crete. Do not walk by this is a real treat for your senses loved it 5⭐️

Stumbled on this gem of a cafe. Started with a savoury pastry, which was mouthwatering. Then a Greek orange cake. Amazing. Coffee was also good. I have seldom seen such big cream cakes on sale. We both felt spoilt for choice. So sorry we were only in Margate for the day and couldn't go back.

Amazing little gem!!! Second visit and a must do in Margate Both the sweet and savoury Pastries are delicious Coffee is a 10/10 too

This place is just a big win for Margate , high quality food and service, nice atmosphere, very Mediterranean feeling, a place to pop in for a coffe or dessert every day ! Highly recommend

Excellent service, very friendly staff, helpful. Will definitely come back for more coffee and cake. Rebecca & Michael

I recently visited Olimpia and received a very warm welcome. The lady who served me recommended an almond cake along with an iced coffee. Both were absolutely delicious! I sat outside as it was a lovely day but it was wonderful to see it busy both inside and out. The premises was clean, tidy and had a warm, friendly feel. The range of cakes and treats was amazing - beautifully displayed in the glass cabinets. I will most certainly be returning and have already recommended a trip to my mum as well as my friends. I'm so happy to have found this gem in the heart of Margate, only a 5 minute walk from my house! Definitely worth a visit for both locals and tourists!

Three cakes, Lemon Tea and a coffee at just over £18. Not the cheapest but certainly of a good quality. Baklava was well made but let down by being soaked in sugar syrup not honey. Black Forest Gateaux had fresh cream and cherry, was good...

This place has great food and coffee, wide selections , fast and friendly service, modern and clean.

Previously used Olimpia. The food is very tasty. However, on two occasions in the past week, my partner and I have been overcharged. On the first occasion, my partner thought it was a mistake. On the second, after receiving a card notification upon arriving home,...

Wow. Where do I start? As a mere human, there’s no way I have the vocabulary to describe just how good this place is. The decor is spotless and the drinks and treats on offer are something that I just haven’t experienced before in my...

I can't praise them enough. Beautifully clean, great service and a huge choice of delicious cakes and pastries. Table service after ordering, which is efficient. Today I had feta in filo, called bourgatsa or something similar and it was so gorgeous I almost yelled 'get...

This place a new favourite for me. The cake displays are so pretty, the only downside is I couldn't decide what to have as it all looked so good! Staff were lovely, everything nice and clean. Baclava was very good and my daughter highly recommends...

With time to kill before we could check in at our hotel on a super chilly February afternoon, the owner saw me peering through the window and came out to invite me to look in side….we decided to have tea and pastries. Very reasonably priced,...

Friendly, welcoming staff. A HUGE array of food and drinks on offer. Could've easily spent hours in here eating and drinking our way through it all. Kids very happy too so what more do you want...? The only problem is we live 500 miles away...

We've been wanting to visit here for a while as it looks so inviting and we weren't disappointed. Friendly staff, clean, modern and inviting with an amazing array of freshly made savoury and sweet food. The cakes looked really great and reasonable prices.. I'll be...

Amazing food Great service The people are very friendly and really respectful I would recommend this place 100%

A beautifully presented establishment, clean and bright and full of temptations. I shared a black cherry cheesecake and a raspberry and white chocolate confection. Oh, my! The former was great, the latter absolutely gorgeous. Certainly not cheap, but you really do get what you pay...

We went to the bakery on our morning walk for the first time. We had a croissant each and a lobster tail. Both tasted divine. We then had a look at all the cakes and delicacies on show. All looked yummy. Will definitely be back

Popped over from Broadstairs for lunch. Fantastic selection of sweet and savoury items and great service from friendly staff. Will be returning to sample a further selection of cakes.

What a range of cakes and cookies. To eat in or take out. Cheaper than local big chains. Excellent coffee. Pleasant surroundings and attentive staff. This is now my wife and I's place to go in Margate

Lovely bakery. Lots of treats, but can’t recommend the spinach and feta pies highly enough, they’re one of the things I love about a Greek holiday, and hard to find good ones in the U.K. Friendly service and not too pricey, so a very welcome...

The new Olympia Bakery is a terrific addition to Margate eateries. The atmosphere is bright and airy. The staff are charming. The choice of fresh pastries, cakes and biscuits is delectable.
