Olmo Lounge in Huntingdonshire

I visited at lunchtime and there were only 3 staff working front of house. It wasn't busy and I was dining alone but the waitress said she'd try to find me somewhere to sit. The restaurant is pleasantly decorated in a vintage look with lots of nice mirrors. The menu is varied with breakfasts, paninis, mains, curry's, burgers and tapas etc. I ordered by using the q code which was easy and I was told would be quicker and mean I got the order promptly rather than if I ordered at the bar. I had the tuna melt panini and a large house white wine. The wine arrived promptly from the bar and there is complimentary water on the bar too. Considering I was only having a panini, it took at least half an hour to arrive whilst most other diners were having larger meals. It came with a handful of taco crisps. The panini was well filled with tuna, but I didn't notice much cheese. The picked cucumber was nice, and I could have done with more. I think a little salad would be a better accompliment rather than the taco crisps. The bill came to over £15 and I think the panini was a little overpriced for what it was. The staff aren't particularly engaging, just doing their job really without going the extra mile for their customers.

I love this place, great food, good atmosphere, friendly staff

Matilda makes the best cocktails, such a lovely bartender, deserves a pay rise

Great find. Had big veggie breakfast which was huge and delicious. Staff nice and friendly and fast service. Nice to discover a restaurant that doesn't thinks you eat like a sparrow just because you're a vegetarian, would highly recommend.

Really friendly staff, made to feel very welcome, they have a great variety of food and drinks at reasonable prices.

Food was great, overpriced, but good. The staff totally rude (especially the lady behind the bars ) when whe came in i asked her a few questions about the breakfast, and she answered very angrily “Let me Speak! Do you have any alergies?”

Well run pub restaurant with busy motivated staff. Food good and promptly served even though it was a busy lunchtime session. Food price fair but beer choice poor and overpriced.

We decided on Olmo lounge for a night of drinks and found the atmosphere to be cheerful and welcoming. Cocktails were delicious and well priced. Had a really good night, would definitely recommend.

Second time coming to the lounge and will be coming more often had a lovely experience with Ed was very polite ordred at the bar and was kind enough to bring my drink to the table and another lovely staff Emmy was polite and chatty Experience was lovely deffo recommend coming here And food was lovely no complaints

I haven't been here in a while, but came here for a meal on a Friday evening. The food was amazing, and service was friendly with no long wait time like other restaurants on the weekend Great experience

Came here for cocktails. Good offer was on, 2 for £12.50. Nice cocktails, great service, good atmosphere. Would recommend.

We had an incredible time at Olmo lounge, could not recommend more! Special shout out to Eme at the bar, she was so lovely, helpful and made incredible drinks in a timely manner! Thank you!

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant today, due to the unprofessional and rude behavior of the manager and his staff ( only one girl). When I tried to order my meal without any carbohydrates, he refused to let me explain and insisted that I had to declare an allergy instead. His attitude was mean and sarcastic, and he showed no willingness to accommodate a simple dietary request. To make things worse, he refused to provide his name, took back the photos we had taken of the staff, and then told us to leave the restaurant for no valid reason. We were not rude or aggressive in any way—we simply wanted to order shakshuka without carbs. I have never encountered such awful customer service in my life. It is completely unacceptable for a manager to treat paying customers this way. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a respectful and welcoming dining experience.

Fantastic, the staff were really lovely and went the extra mile for my stepson’s 18th only to discover my tight husband didn’t leave a tip. I’m absolutely mortified. They were fantastic, thank you all for making it so special. He’s never tipped in his life so it really wasn’t personal. You were all amazing thank you, and I’ll make up for it when I’m next in

Having stopped in for an early lunch, we were met by a super friendly and nice man who found us a table. ordered the big breakfast, my wife ordered poached eggs. The food turned up quickly and sadly the bacon on my food was far too well done/ burnt ( it was black). I instantly asked the waitress to change it. I was polite and apologetic about t, but the look I got was like I had taken a dump on the table. She went off to serve others and then came back, a little less attitude but still not ideal asking if I wanted the bacon changing. This was done quickly and the swapped bacon was far better. I understand people like things cooked differently, but the attitude of the waitress was extremely disappointing.

Very good food. Excellent service. Lighting was for me a very strange light. Good to create an atmosphere but not very good for reading the menu. Otherwise really good

Went in for afternoon drinks to meet friends it was their first visit very disappointed dirty tables with loads of used plates glasses and food left over inside and out no wonder the pigeons like that place food on floor dirty tissues on seats over priced weak wine 👎had to wait for 5 mins at bar before someone saw and served us !!!

Grumpy staff, dreadful service. It was not very busy and yet the staff took ages to make our drinks. Our food sat so long on the serving hatch that we considered helping ourselves to it. Our table then wasn’t cleared so I asked a member of staff please to clear it so we could play cards and order coffee and dessert, but he walked on with empty hands saying ‘in a minute’, then 3 of them stood chatting at the serving hatch… they never did come back. We left after another 10 minutes deciding against the coffee and dessert and won’t be going back. Customer Service training needed here. Just awful.

The food is generally ok, there is a reasonable selection of dishes available and prices are competitive. Service can be a little slow and food could be warmer most of the time. The main issue with this restaurant is that the lighting is far too dim to be able to read the menu easily. If you are elderly or have eyesight problems you will struggle to read it.

Lovely place, good music, nice staff and amazing food :D shout out to the gentleman last Saturday who offered if I wanted to try the bread, I was heavily impressed and happy 😁😁

Great choice of vegan and vegetarian food

Visited recently with my partner and baby, we were immediately welcomed and made comfortable by the friendly staff. We had a lovely lunch and recommend the flatbreads and lemonades. If you're in Huntingdon and looking for a bite to eat, drinks or to just sit with a coffee it's a must. Special mention to Pally who really made our day. Thank you.

Friendly welcome - and, as always, a tempting selection of vegetarian fare; I ordered a 3-plate tapas selection from the vegan menu: patatas bravas, guacamole with tortilla chips, hummus with sunflower and pumpkin seeds and a side of broccoli with chilli and lemon dressing. I also had a delicious cherry, almond syrup and spiced rum mocktail (the Cherry Fakewell), a free cherry 🍒 juice (Tapas Tuesday deal) and an oat milk latte with an almond shot. All the food was fresh and absolutely delicious, as were the drinks. However, my main complaint (which has been an issue once before on a previous visit) is that the numerous empty dishes weren't cleared from the table, which by the time we had ordered after dinner drinks, became very cramped and cluttered. This is a huge inconvenience and one that needs to be addressed.

Love this place. Great food and drink. Dog friendly. Lovely staff.

Nothing bad to say always busy always good👍😎

I ate at Olmo three days in a row while visiting Huntingdon. I can’t say enough good things about it. Everything my friend and I ate was outstanding. Special mention for the Miami Brunch and the Harissa Chicken flatbread. Wish I had time to try their whole menu!

Had a lovely soup with just a little spice.

I ordered the Lounge Burger with an extra burger. Both burgers were dry and hard and had clearly been cooked in advance and reheated. Probably the worst burger I have ever had anywhere. This dish cost nearly £17 for something that tasted like wood or cardboard. Really this is just laziness on the part of a chef or bad restaurant management. Also we ordered together but one of our table had to wait until we were two thirds through our meal before her received his. Will not be returning. Burgers are the easiest meal to cook to order and not mess up. So bad.

Such a cosy, welcoming place with lovely food and even lovelier staff. The owner is so polite and accommodating as are the waiters - been here a few times and accidentally left my bag on the last visit. They kept it safe, all valuables still in there. Highly recommend 💜

Same with all the Lounge restaraunts. Really nice decor. Food was delicious. Friendly staff. Really nice place for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Drinks are great. Same with any (Ive been to Huntingdon, Peterborough, Egham, Kendle)

Pluses 1) Very beautiful interior 2) Good air temperature Cons 1) I didn't even recognize the waiter. I would like to have at least one unifying element for all of them, so as not to confuse staff with visitors 2) We ordered coffee, cake and salad. Brought coffee right away without even asking. But okay. So where's the cake? Had to ask separately. 3) The salad had very large and hard lettuce ends. Ruined the whole idea of ​​food. 4) The waitress was a beautiful woman with long flowing hair. It was annoying and made me want to check all the food for her hair. In my opinion, such a hairstyle is not acceptable for meals. 5) Terrible toilet! Of the three cubicles, two had no toilet paper. The hand dryer does not work. There were no paper towels. Dirt and bad smell. 6) You can edit and supplement your order, but you CANNOT confirm the changes! 7) Lounge Bacon Cheeseburger - no slaw! Came with a salad. Did you read the order at all?

Chicken Burger fell apart which was really unpleasant to then eat with a knife and fork and significantly worse than the same burger at another lounge location. The place is so noisy to hear. The volume just gets louder and louder and ends up just uncomfortable to enjoy and impossible to chat in. Isn’t very nice with dogs inside too moving all about the table not everyone wants to eat with that. Wouldn’t go back no really worth the money more then another well known chain that sells cheaper meals of better enjoyment. Shame as bad high hopes for the place.

Is no service at all, we been waiting for a while to be seated. After that we got asked by the waiter to use the app to order. None of the special items were available . Food was pretty decent except the wings, they tasted stale and reheated and the Mac and cheese is was very oily.Music is was pretty loud. No one bothered to check with us about the food. Not impressed to be honest!

I recently visited this place for lunch with my partner and her mother. We were seated immediately as it was a quiet time. I started with a Double Chocolate Oreo 'Milkshake,' which was quite disappointing. What I received was a glass of chocolate milk, akin to a Yazoo, topped with whipped cream and Oreo crumbs. It was far from a true milkshake and certainly not worth £4.75. After expressing my dissatisfaction, we were given a replacement drink free of charge, even though it was £1 more expensive. Which is good, but this should not be advertised as a milkshake in the first place. We opted for the three-plate deal from the tapas menu. Unfortunately, the portion sizes were underwhelmingly small. I ordered the spicy beef quesadilla, lamb kofta, and beef brisket chilli. Regrettably, none of these dishes were served hot, or even warm. The sauce with the lamb kofta and the cheese on the chilli had developed a skin, indicating they had been left out for a while. The cheese on both the chilli and quesadilla had melted and re-solidified. Despite these issues, the lamb kofta and brisket chilli tasted delicious, but the lack of quality control was evident. I chose not to complain further as I was hungry and had already returned one item. While I understand that tapas are small plates, I've been to other similarly priced tapas restaurants where the portion sizes were significantly larger. Tapas is meant for sharing, but these three plates barely made up a meal for one person. Regrettably, I won't be returning to this establishment. The lack of sufficient quality control in the kitchen is apparent, and these dishes should never have been served in their state. For those seeking tapas, I recommend looking elsewhere.

Was early breakfast, peaceful and relaxing

Absolutely love this lounge it’s so cosy especially this time of year! Friendly staff and great food as always

My husband and I are regulars here everyday Saturday morning. We love the atmosphere, the lights, walls full of art, and toys for kids. The staff are always friendly. There is so much available for food options, not just breakfast at 9 am. Today I had a Korean chicken burger, it was amazing. We love this place, our only complaint is that the restaurant can be cold to sit in, and sometimes our fried eggs are a bit over done. The coffee is just okay. We do love this spot and continue to go every Saturday.

Pretty poor food. Had a brunch breakfast. Egg was rock solid. Bacon overcooked. Sausage overcooked. Beans had clearly been sat around as they had a thick crust on top. No one checked on our food.

Really nice atmosphere, and delicious food. Staff are really friendly.

Been going here for ages and it never fails to deliver. Used to go for the quizzes but don't live locally anymore. Never had an issue not being able to get a table. The service is always good, the app makes it easy to order. The vibe is always busy but friendly. The burgers are always good and the all-day brunch options, especially the full English is great.

Great movie gladiiters amazing effects and all

The Olmo was a reel gem of a find. Great coffee, cake, and service. We were really made welcome and really felt like we could stay all day. As a foreigner, it's so nice to feel at home. Well done Olmo you are a credit to the trade. I will mist definitely be sharing the details of this place, I may even return for a beer!

Always fabulous service. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, it's always time for Olmo. Wish they did loyalty cards 🩷

Great food. One person and respected and served well. Love the atmosphere, I stayed and read after the meal. Def will come again and recommend it to everyone!

The worst of this chain of restaurants. Staff require training in both etiquette and service! Stood at the bar waiting to be served for 6 minutes, not either member of staff acknowledged or stated they'd be with me in a moment. Regardless of how busy it was (which it wasn't), staff should not wait on customers/tables this way. I would not eat here again!

Love this gorgeous friendly place. Great food and super friendly staff. Real chilled laid back London vibe. Bonus dog friendly inside as well.

Matty from this branch is a credit to the resturant, i have never has someone so polite and helpful and understanding help me over the phone with a problem i have had, they helped me solve it straight away with no fuss and customer service like this makes me want to return booking at this branch. 10/10

Nice atmosphere and interiors. One of the most expensive brunches I've had & not even in located near or in London! £17 for 1 slice of toast, some avacado, bacon & a poached egg on top with a coffee on the side! Very expensive for what it is... Wouldn't recommend.

Lovely, laid back place, excellent service and wonderful atmosphere.

Lovely place to eat and drink. Very clean friendly staff and good value for money

It was a euphoric night due to the amazing interior and ambiance of the restaurant. The staff are also really friendly and the food is good.

Expensive £2 for a cuppa , breakfast was good , but dog friendly ,there was 6 in there,

First time here, ordered their version of eggs benidict, egg yolk come out hard, but as the taste was good, decided not to say anything, 5 min later, they gave me a fresh one with runny yolk, I hadn't said anything and I guess they just seen it wasn't right and wanted to correct it. Everything about this place works, staff are nice, polite, friendly etc, food was good and atmosphere and decor was good also. Highly recommend this place

I ordered a chicken burger, and my girlfriend ordered the Buddha Bowl. The portions were very small, so much so that I had to complain. My chicken burger was a quarter of a chicken breast, which is not what I expect for a price of £13, when it comes with one very shallow side. I was given another piece of meat to make up for it, but that's not the point. I believe in offering fair value to customers from the beginning, not when they complain, as most people will be too embarrassed to. Other than that, the ambience of the restaurant is nice.

We were welcomed by the most jovial and professional host Duty Manager Pal who made our beautiful lunch even more enjoyable. The flat bread with Harisa chicken to the brisket chilli and Mac n cheese excelled our expectations and the amazing service was faultless. We will return to try more of the delicious menu and hope to be entertained by the brilliant host Pal once again. Wonderful experience thank you Pal from table 7 😊

Great variety of food and drinks and everything we had was quality.

one of the best drinks and burgers I have had in a minute. I came here twice this week and both times everything has been great.

Really friendly welcome, fast service and super tasty food. Can't wait to come back. Best sweet potato fries I've had in ages!

Comfortable seats and plenty of them. Lovely cool air conditioning for hot days. My food was good and it was easy to order. I didn't like that I was asked to tip before the food came out, but I guess that's normal now?

It's a great place to eat and meet. Service quick. Food & drink excellent. Had Nassi Goreng - great taste

Stopped by following a recommendation by a local hotel for a small bite to eat. Food was tasty (portion of fries that came with a burger was a bit on the small side) and the drinks were good. Overall price was good. There was also Friday night music which was pleasant and not too loud (we sat at the back of the lounge so we could still chat).

It's a really good place, it's a very friendly place and the staff are always very professional and are always quick. The food is fantastic, it's a little expensive but, the food is as I said fantastic. The atmosphere is amazing and it's very large inside but, quite cozy. Well done, to the staff Keep up the wonderful work!. Xxx ☺️♥️🍔🍅🥒🧅🥑🥗🥣🍲☕🥃🍷🍻

A lovely cafe/ bar/ restaurant. We sat outside and ordered via the table QR code which was very handy. The cake came very promptly followed by the drinks. The ladies on both occasion were very friendly. Cake was lovely and not overly sweet. Hot chocolate wasn't sickly and the tea came in an individual T pot which was a lovely touch and enough for 2 cups. Great value for money.

Fantastic service and friendly staff

Food was ok, price was fine. Cocktails nice, ok selection of beer if you like lagers but nothing great from from a real ale/craft perspective. We had a bit of an issue with stuff not being available and the kitchen hadn't told the bar. So they took our order not knowing. I guess they are so used to app orders, they have got out of the habit of letting the bar staff know when stuff runs out. To be fair to the lad he resolved it really well and we ended up having a decent meal.

Not the best but convienent at time

The 'Lounges' chain provides a different range of food to other places with burgers alongside curry and tapas. The tapas is particularly good, with tasty vegetarian options. Deserts have some usual and not so usual options and the semi-fredo was spot on. There are several locations.

AMAZING restaurant for anyone needing gluten free food. Food comes out on plates marked as “gluten free” or with a special allergy flag so the staff takes care of you. Sandwich options on gluten free bread, and a delicious gluten free banoffee cheesecake after.

I was absolutely satisfied with the food and customer service! I fell in love with the beauty of this gorgeous place! Definitely, I will come back ! Recommend with confidence! 😜

Great food, friendly staff and dog-friendly too. What more could you want??

Just want to shout out our server, man with top knot ponytail, what a great guy - gave us complimentary coffees and flap jack samples because we ‘looked like we were working hard’! (We were honestly) Great coffee, great place, great service

I like olmo, has a nice terrace outside, covered with street view but you can have privacy aswell if you want, dog friendly. Inside is like you enter in a story...dim lights, child area with activities. Families friendly. You gave beautiful decorations, looks very posh and the service is great. You can order from the table using a scan code, young people working there, any questions you have will be answered and food and drinks bought to the table in a timely manner...food is exquisite. I would recommend this place if you look for a nice evening out, family dinner or just to met friends. BTW...the toilets are clean and beautiful 😍

Waited a long time at the bar to be served while the two staff members did other drinks orders. We had eggs and the food was cold. I was ill later on in the day. Have been there before and it was better. Today was a bad experience I’m reluctant to repeat.

Service not bad Quite pricey for drinks Weird music

I dropped by on a Tuesday eve from work for a quick drink .the place is Lovely and good atmosphere .

Love this place. Stayed in Huntingdon for a week on a work trip. Ate here every single evening instead of the hotel. The food is delicious. All well cooked and tasty. Tried many different dishes, as well as trying the drinks and cocktails. I’ll be back again soon!

Great please to hang out and eat, excellent food and friendly chilled out staff

The QR ordering makes for a pretty impersonal experience (and you get asked to pay and tip before you encounter any staff) but it's fine considering there isn't much competition in the area. Good vegetarian options and staff are friendly when you do see them.

Food was delicious, Highly recommend the beef chilli. Great atmosphere and excellent service.

Lunch with my family. Good service and lovely surroundings. Only disappointment was the side salad as it wasn't nice

Olmo lounge is a great find. It's quirky and welcoming with friendly approachable staff. The menu offers a wide range of choices at very reasonable prices. The food is delicious. It's definitely worth a visit for any meal.

Great burger. Good diet options.

2024-Excellent food and great staff... Lighter and music at a better level. Love this place. Great for the town.. 2022-A bit more light and a bit less music would make it better.. It's a really good place but there's creating an atmosphere and then there's just dark.... Music a bit loud if you're trying to have a conversation. It's a lounge so needs a little work on that front..

Exceptional Dining Experience at Olma Lounge My fiancé and I recently dined at Olma Lounge, and once again, we were thoroughly impressed. While we always enjoy the food here, this visit was truly exceptional. We indulged in the Chicken Kiev burger, onion rings, triple cheese fries, and the twisted chicken and bacon ciabatta. Each dish was perfectly cooked and seasoned, showcasing the chef's remarkable culinary skills. The Chicken Kiev burger was a standout, with its juicy, flavourful filling and crispy coating. The onion rings were delightfully crunchy, a perfect side to complement our meal. The triple cheese fries were a cheese lover's dream, with a gooey, rich blend that was simply irresistible. The twisted chicken and bacon ciabatta was a harmonious mix of savory chicken and crispy bacon, all encased in a wonderfully fresh ciabatta. Olma Lounge has always been a favorite of ours, but this experience has solidified it as our top choice for dining out. Compliments to the chef for an outstanding meal that exceeded all expectations. We look forward to our next visit!

Love these lounges as the service is the same wherever you go. So far I've been to 7 of them!

Great restaurant with a varied and tasty menu and wonderful staff.

I often go to the ferro lounge in st neots but today I went to the olmo lounge in Huntingdon and the food was very nice I had the buttermilk chicken and it was very good the restaurant itself was very big and had lots of pictures on the wall which makes the whole place look very nice I will be back

Cheap but good food, great atmosphere, recommend to all.

Never been here before, found it on the Internet, wife and two boys. Ask if we'd ever eaten here, we said no, sat us down and just disappeared, gone, not to be found. Hung around for a server, one walked past, we tried to to stop her, but she she was too busy to help,got up and left, would never spend money in a place, where they can't be bothered.

Great allowed dog in. Vegetarian and gluten free. Huge range of food. Great service.

Nice,friendly and welcoming location and nice drinks

From walking in to sitting down we felt comfortable and the food was beautifully presented and was excellent, I'll definitely be returning and recommend a visit

Great food, bit noisy with music playing

Me, my partner and my daughter come here most weekends as our weekend treat. We always look forward to the visit and it feels like a solace and safe place for us, food is lovely, reasonably priced and the cocktails are amazing. I miss the tandoori chicken burger though, bring it back please! - thanks for being our little slice of happiness.

Been going here at least twice a week since they first opened. Always had a warm welcome and nice food and drinks. Not today. We were evicted from our table because "other people were waiting before us". They actually came in behind us and I had held the door open for them! Waiter not interested in that and allowed us to leave with no lunch. Didn't even apologise for his error or ask us to sit down again. Disgraceful service!

Food lovely, but they DON'T do a Sunday roast and portion size doesn't reflect the price? Communication and service very rushed, music way too loud and had to wait 30 mins for food? Can see there trying to taylor for a certain clientele, i.e. not the majority of Huntingdon.

A party of five came for lunch to Olmo Lounge for my mothers 90th Birthday celebrations. Had a fabulous time food was excellent, staff were amazing special shout out to Pearl and Vince, who were amazing with my Mum. Thank you from my family, we will be back soon.

This place is 25 miles drive from my place. That distance does not bother such is the quality of the food at this place.

First time here but have been in similar place in Kettering & Market Harborough, was greeted at the door asked if we had any allergies, shown to a table, ask if we had been before. Was told a twentyfive minute wait, on food, though not very busy. Was clean with polite and friendly staff. I had the Mediterranean chicken ciabatta very enjoyable.
