Orchid House Cafe in Greenwich

Be aware that the cafe is only for those with a ticket to Eltham Palace and Gardens. Disappointed to not be allowed in today as I didn't want to visit the Palace and gardens. Pre covid you could just use the shop and cafe without buying a ticket.

We had lunch here after we had visited Eltham Palace.Ihad a tuna mayo jacket potato and my husband had a vegetarian sandwich,and two hot drinks,very nice.

A nice selection of eats and drinks - good quality - very pleasant staff. The cakes are a real treat

Estuvimos visitando este lugar desde hace un par de años, muy a menudo diría, generalmente durante el fin de semana para tomar un café, un pastel y algunas veces algo de comida. Nos gusta la decoración y el ambiente, el personal es muy amable y educado. Los precios están bien, pero en el extremo superior para esta área. En general, es un lugar hermoso con un ambiente relajante. Merece 5 * bur pero lamento daré solo 1 *. La única razón para ello es el hecho de que a partir del 24 de febrero de 2019 este lugar no estará abierto al público. ¡Se convertirá en exclusivo para visitantes que pagan de Eltham Palace! ! ! Esta es una decisión completamente insana, pero si ya no quiere que seamos lo suficientemente justos, acaba de perder clientes fieles de más de 5 años. Buena suerte.

Los alimentos prácticamente lo mismo que en la mayoría de Patrimonio Nacional y de las casas, pero la confianza era muy agradable. Puedes conseguir helados también. Servicio muy concurrido y como de costumbre no final uo esperando bastante tiempo ya hay uno a dos personas y sirve en seguida. Tuve que decir las chicas los puestos de agua cubiertos, servilletas vasos etc. Necesitaba. pero no rellenaba hacerlo muy rápidamente. Yo lo recomiendo.

This small cafe is 5 minutes' walk from the Elizabethan/1930s combination of Eltham Palace in south London. You reach the cafe by walking along a lovely, forested path that's very rural. You can sit inside the cafe itself, although there's not much atmosphere there. It's nicer to eat or have a drink in the glassed-in greenhouse part that was originally used as a place where Eltham's owner grew orchids---hence, the name! There's the usual range of teas, cakes and sandwiches. They're beautifully prepared, and everything tastes good. But I found it a bit overpriced for what I ordered: a small salmon sandwich and even tinier salad. Combine this visit with the nearby gift shop, which has some good reproductions of Art Deco objects that are in the house.

This cafe is 5 minutes' walk from Eltham Palace, and on the grounds, along a lovely forested path. You can sit in the cafe itself, which doesn't have much atmosphere. But it's nicer to eat in the glassed-in greenhouse part that was originally used for growing orchids---hence, the name. There's the usual range of teas, cakes and sandwiches you find at an English country house cafe. I found it rather overpriced for what I ordered: a small salmon sandwich and even tinier salad. The nearby gift shop has some good reproductions of Art Deco objects (the newer part of Eltham Palace was built in Art Deco style). There are also stuffed toys of the owners' annoying pet lemur.!
