Peter de Wit's Cafe in Greenwich

Somos un grupo de mujeres que desayunan y almuerzan en tiendas independientes locales una vez al mes. Desayunamos en este café y la comida era buena. El servicio también estuvo bien también. Está situado en el corazón de Greenwich. Un desayuno inglés completo tradicional vino con patatas fritas?

La camarera era cálido y amable. Fui en domingo. La comida tardó años en venir a pesar de que no estaba tan lleno, así que iría si tienes un período bastante tranquilo para efectos prácticos. thah Fue lo suficientemente agradable, pero creo que 10. 80 para un café con leche y huevos con beicon en tostadas es bastante empinada para ser honesto. Me sentí un poco caro para mí.

My sister and I wanted somewhere for breakfast. We specifically didn't want to support one of the chain cafes in Greenwich. This little gem was perfect. Polite,attentive and friendly staff. Tea and Marmite on toast £4.50. Hit the spot 😃

Nos detuvimos en para el desayuno, estábamos muy contentos de haberlo hecho. Uno de los mejores desayunos que he tomado nunca. El uso de ingredientes de calidad era obvio y todo estaba preparado a la perfección. El personal era muy amable y no podía hacer lo suficiente. Sin duda parada por la próxima vez que en Greenwich.

Esta es una pequeña joya de una cafetería y fue cálida, acogedora y acogedora, y el personal era solo la única dama. Estaba ocupado ya que era la hora del almuerzo cuando visitamos. Tuvimos un té y bollos preciosos y estaban frescos y hermosos. Estuve aquí con mi hijo que estaba de visita desde Arizona y pensó que era encantador. No estaba al tanto de que no iba a ser mucho más extenso ya que otras críticas han mencionado. Sería una tragedia ir, ya que es bastante único y está tan bien ubicado en el medio de Greenwich y es fácil acceder desde el parque de Greenwich y también se puede llegar en autobús. Me gustaría volver aquí y espero que todavía esté aquí. Hay un pequeño patio afuera de este pequeño lugar pero necesitan actualizar el inodoro que tiene agua fría. Aparte de esto es brillante.

Almorcé hoy aquí. Servicio muy amable y buena comida. Sentado afuera en el patio en la tarde sol del verano. Un espacio muy tranquilo y relajado en el corazón de una calle de alta. Por desgracia no será por mucho tiempo. Esperando que no se hubiera tragado por una cadena. Necesitamos más sitios independientes como esta!

Cuando se aloje en Greenwich estábamos buscando una cafetería independiente para el brunch.

A lovely, no-frills cafe with a tiny but charming back terrace. Simple food, really worth a visit, sadly not around for much longer.

Brilliant tea and toast. Lovely little courtyard and excellent service. Highly recommended for a classic London cafe

This is a nice little cafe off the beaten path in Greenwich. We had tea and scones in their very small outdoor patio and it was a cool shady spot on a very hot day. The food was very nice.

Entramos en este bar para encontrar cobijo en un frío y lluvioso día, encontramos excelentes tés y gran scones con mermelada y crema de leche. El personal es muy servicial, y el ambiente es cálido.

It was quiet in the cafe, cold out but with a whiff of spring so glad to get in the warm for a lovely full English breakfast. Just the right amount and cooked to perfection. I had some work to do and was left alone to crack on, but when I was done and on my second pot of tea with lemon cake, I had such a lovely chat with the owner, so welcoming and worldly wise!I am often in Greenwich and will be heading straight here when I'm next in town for food and a chat!

Absolutely charming little cafe, warm welcoming atmosphere, good food and excellent customer service all at a very reasonable price!

Homemade cakes and scones. Excellent coffee. Traditional english food that is always fresh. Great breakfasts too. Nice to chat with the owner as well !

I discovered this place with a friend and will forever return for their scones are amongst the best ones I've had in my life !I find that a good place for a cream tea is surprisingly hard to come by in London but Peter De Wit's Café is The place for me.The place can be a bit drafty in the winter with people constantly coming in and out but their teas and hot chocolate should help with that.They also have a nice food menu (though I can't say I've had anything but the scones) and the staff is very friendly.There aren't many tables so you might want to book or have to wait a little.

Waited 20 minutes for coffees and 35 for 2 sandwiches...expensive for the quality of coffees and food. ...nothing special at all

Small cute caffe if looking for Breakfast in Greenwich Town. Prices are ok and service is great! Worth a visit.

Second visit to this tiny Little cafe with a big personality.The staff are lovely, although the space is tiny they use every available bit and even have a number of tables outside in very small area alongside buildings for those of us who love sitting outside.The coffee is great! Food simple menu, but very nicely cooked. You feel a million miles away from crazy busy of the cutty sark area.

Just the spot for a coffee in the shade after the walk from the train station. We were made very welcome even though we were just having a quick coffee at lunchtime. The tables in the garden are delightful and the toilet is tiny, but cleverly designed and very clean. I shall remember this place for future visits

Had been walking around busy Greenwich, looking for a small cafe (i don´t like the chains....) This little cafe was just the right thing for a rest. The atmosphere is nice, tea and scone were alright- though I like to admit it would have been nice if the scone had be warm.would definitely go again

So I went here and paid £9 for a tiny full English. I expected much more for £9.Half way through my breakfast (the food was average) I heard what seemed the mum and daughter owners arguing over what prices the food should be. The daughter was being very rude and shouting at her mother talking about what her mother should and shouldn't be charging for things. The waitress looked very embarrassed when I looked over my shoulder. Definitely won't return

Good spot for a quick brunch - although not much atmosphere. The food was delicious, however it's not the cheapest of brunch places.

Siamo entrati qui un po' per caso e ne siamo stati piacevolmente sorpresi. Accoglienza calorosa e cordiale, english breakfast e scones semplicemente fantastici! ci ritorneremo sicuramente!

Once you get in this is a lovely, small and cosy cafe. The staff are lovely, very friendly an service e is quick. The menu is limited, very breakfast or cake based, but what they do offer tastes great, so it's good! Definitely worth stopping by for a drink or a quick bite, much more character than a chain coffee house

We stopped here for a quick bite on a Sunday afternoon. My husband had scrambled egg on toast which was very nice and a pot of tea which came with some hot water on the side. I had the chocolate fudge cake which was really moist and well flavoured. The coffee wasn't strong enough and too milky so next time I would ask for milk on the side. We liked the buzz of the place and the staff were very friendly so we will definitely come back. The prices we fine.

Excellent little cafe which obviously has a loyal local clientele. Seems a bit pricey at first but the food and coffees are really good. The staff are very friendly.

Q....After a heavy night out.....what do you need most?A.... A good solid full English breakfast c/w a big pot of tea, toast and Black pudding.This tidy little cafe delivered the required alcohol soak up perfectly adequately, thank you very much..... not the fastest of service, but friendly enough.

One of the best places for coffee, tea and cake in Greenwich, fresh cakes, shortbread/scones which were delicious, proper pots of tea, fresh coffee and delicious apple juice for the little ones! We had a particularly attentive waitress who brought my Little cousin's juice and cake first which was extremely thoughtful. Good value for Greenwich. Will be going back!

Popped in here for some tea and cakes. The lady serving was friendly and very pleasant. We ordered a carrot cake, lemon drizzle cake with tea and a hot chocolate.The carrot cake didn't taste of carrot and the lemon drizzle was dry - perhaps it was a bad batch. Still very impressed with the great service.

Had a full English breakfast. This was more expensive than the lovely looking cafe around the corner but they were full so we arrived here. We were given a warm welcome and offered tap water which was a nice touch. The breakfast was small and bit of a rip off. As previous reviews have said, menu states 3 rashers of bacon. This turned out to be 2 rashers of streaky and one of back bacon!!! Small sausages too. Best thing was the toast! Wished we had waited for the other cafe now as their breakfast was cheaper and the place looked more inviting. This cafe had bare white walls! x

Quick coffee required, so we dropped in to this lovely and deceptive little cafe.Sat out the back in the open air was a bit tight for room.Tea and coffee was served with a smile, carrot cake was fresh moist and tasty.Good value.

Lovely place. Great weather so we had breakfast in the garden. The food is wonderfully fresh, beautifully cooked and the service is excellent. Lovely staff - can't praise highly enough.

Popping down to Greenwich for the afternoon... take in cream tea at this cute little cafe! Scones delicious with clotted cream and jam and tea was tasty and plentiful.

カティーサークの近くにある小さなかわいいカフェです。私はクリームティーを注文しました。大きめのスコーンにクロテッドクリームとジャム、お茶で満腹になりました。スコーンがとてもおいしかったです。クレジットカードは使えないようなのでご注意ください。また、店の奥のドアを抜けると裏庭にトイレがあります。グリニッジ観光の途中休憩におすすめです。

This a superb cafe near the cutty sark and the market. Very reasonably priced for Greenwich. Very pleased with the pot of tea and filter coffee. Cream to at the bargain price of £6. Amazing value for such a tourist area. A real gem

This afternoon in a VERY HOT Greenwich my family and I were desperate for a drink and tea. From the outside this café looked fairly normal but inside we found a welcome and delicious cakes worth travelling to Greenwich specially for. In the small courtyard at the back we had a selection of cakes, iced cofffee's decaf and non-decaf, and friendly warm service. The Cafe has been around a few years apparently but deserves loyalty

Worst coffee. And took 20 minutes to get the coffee. They only had 4 other guests in the restaurant. It's a hole in the wall - just keep walking.

me and my partner came here peckish after spending a morning in town, the cafe itself is quite small decorated lovely. the fry up my partner had was quite small but it is all freshly cooked high quality food, the hash browns are AMAZING! we did have to wait a little longer for the drinks than expected but no complaints there, the food portion is the right size not to leave you feeling uncomfortably full after, i would definitely come here again if passing bythank you

We were met by a charming young lady who took our order. We both were starving and looked forward to a hearty fry up...HOWEVER...The alarm bells should have been ringing once I saw the portion sizes being given to nearby diners. Although I did wonder if the diners opted for a kids sized portion. 5 minutes later our drinks arrived - my cappuccino was sub-standard - probably something from a sachet mixed with luke warm water. 10 minutes later our food arrived. At first sight I was disappointed. Our vegetarian sausages looked anaemic - eggs looks overcooked and the baked beans were of cheao quality and barely one level tablespoon worth, tomatoes were raw with a singe of brown on the edges - I guess these were supposedly grilled for all of 5 seconds, and the so called fried mushrooms looked just so so. The best part of the breakfast was the granary toast. The rest tasted of absolutely nothing - nothing tasted of anything. I hardly touched the breakfast - nor did my partner. I discovered the anaemic sausages were pale because they had not been cooked properly - I cut the sausage in half and felt the inside and it was just luke warm. That was the final straw - I quietly spoke to the manager to complain about my food - she did offer to make a new breakfast but frankly it wouldn't have been worth the wait - I simply wanted to get the heck out of there! My wonderful partner wanted to pay for the overpriced food that we hardly touched - our fry up each cost a shocking £9 for a mini kids fry up.. but I wasn't comfortable for him to pay for the most hideous breakfast I have ever had. The manager said we would not have to pay - and we just paid for the drinks and quickly left. The sad thing is this place has the potential to be something. They should take pride in what they serve. If you just walk 5 minutes down the road opposite the picture house cinema you'll come to breakfast heaven - whose prices are the same as Peter de wits café - but they are worlds apart when it comes to portion size, taste and quality. Sadly this café needs some work - they should invest in buying quality items to serve, and get a decent chef in.Enough said - don't waste your money here - Peter de worse café needs some help.

We came here for a coffee and was tempted into the afternoon tea by the lovely looking scones.The coffee was very good. Happy to see the aeropress option as not very common. The scones also were enjoyable. Clearly homemade so had a lovely taste and texture, and the clotted cream and jam were great too.Despite ordering another drink on top of one of the afternoon teas, which came with a hot drink, between two of us, we only got charged the price for the one afternoon tea - which was very kind.Had a great experience of this place - would recommend going for great coffee and excellent, friendly service.

We had breakfast on a cold Sunday morning before the market opened. I had fried egg on toast with mushrooms and hash browns and it was delicious. The hash browns were unusual - very fresh with herbs, and not greasy at all. Service is slow, but we weren't in a hurry.

Service was great and it tasted good but it's not value for money that's for sure. Menu boasts of 2 eggs, 3 rashers of bacon, 2 sausages, beans and toast for £9. Drinks are on top. Well the small plate fit perfectly on the small table as did the small portions fit perfectly onto the small plate with room to spare. The sausages were very thin like chipolatas and we only got 2 rashers of bacon with hardly any beans. The toast was a decent size. I really did expect more for my £9. Will stick to my local cafe in the future as felt like we had been caught in the Greenwich tourist trap. Won't be returning and will not be recommending it to anyone!

Best breakfast i've had in Greenwich, absolutely delightful staff, very friendly, a rustic british cafe with a twist on food. The flavours of the mushrooms and tomatoes are delightful! Can't recommend enough for an easy going morning breakfast!

This unassuming little cafe in Greenwich was a lovely surprise. It was relatively inexpensive (for London), and you got a lot for what you paid. Nice atmosphere and my cream tea was sumptuous, especially the scone!

Whist on a weekend visit to London, we decided to take a trip to Greenwich Market.It was freezing cold and raining and we couldn't bear the thought of eating outside at the market so jumped into this café. So glad we did!We ordered 2 full breakfasts and 2 scrambled eggs on toast along with hot drinks. Whilst initially not looking anything particularly fancy (it is a café after all), the guys wolfed down what I'm told was a fantastic full English whilst my friend and I couldn't stop complimenting the scrambled egg! My friend also loved their cappuccino and ordered a few! The choice of teas was a welcomed surprise.It was empty when we arrived but by the time we received our food, the café was full. The waitress appeared to be on top of the orders and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed.I'll be recommending this café to anyone visiting Greenwich as it's perfectly located for the market (just opposite) and also great for people watching!

As locals, this is our favourite cafe in the West Greenwich area. It's a really sweet little place with a strong community vibe. The proprietor is a long time resident and she hires local teenagers as additional staff on busy days. You often see the same faces in there, which is so unusual for a place in London. It sells lovely artisan coffee and fresh cakes and the hot dishes (sandwiches, all day breakfasts etc.) are also fab. Costa and Starbucks, eat your heart out.

We waited 30 minutes to get our coffee. In the meantime a French family had been served coffee and walnut cake rather than cups of coffee. 3 tables left without getting served. As we left a table had ordered 4 English breakfast teas and they served 4 teas and then tried to serve a cooked English breakfast to go with their cakes.

After a bike ride to the Olympic Park my friends and I were looking for somewhere in Greenwich for tea and cake; Peter de Wit's Cafe seemed to fit the bill. The cafe is very small with simple decor, and has a selection of home-made cakes on the counter. Some blackboards indicate the coffee of the day.We placed our order of three hot drinks and three cakes, but these took quite some time to arrive, although the cafe didn't seem particularly busy. My scone was very pleasant, and my friends enjoyed their chocolate brownies and fudge cake, but the experience could have been improved by more imaginative decor and faster service, perhaps with a smile... Pleasant but I wouldn't rush back.

The food was decent and the lady who I presumes owns the cafe was very friendly and polite. Two full English breakfasts and two teas £23, I thought the cost was a tad high then again it's in the centre of Greenwich so suppose what I expected really.

Went in today. 2 tables taken inside and 3-4 outside. A typical lazy Sunday. Took a seat for 5 minutes, and walked back out after being completely ignored. No real ambience to speak of, apart from barbecue fumes wafting in from outside. A disappointment.

Tired of pub food, food chains or standing at a kiosk at the Greenwich Village food fair? This lovely little café is your chance to sit and relax in the lovely little backyard and have some nicely prepared quiche with a salad and a tea or other healthy and tasty meals. You get personalized attention. Price is a touch higher than one would expect, but still worth the stop!

I am a Marmite lover so a bit biased. I like visiting Peter de Wit's for the atmosphere in the bustling centre of Greenwich. When possible, used to attend the Jazz evenings (unfortuneately they are not doing these at the moment). The service is always great with a variety of different interesting, often young and vibrant, people. It can get busy and as it is situated in one of the smallest, oldest properties in Greenich, can be a little cramped; but I think this all adds to the atmosphere. The food is always freshly prepared and from local suppliers. Prices are not cheap but compare favourably with the takeaway artisan ethnic foods available in Greenwich Market. If you have a specific dietry requirement they will endeavour to meet it if they can. The decor on my last visit was plain and functional but on previous occasions have seen interesting artwork exhibited. All in all a very pleasant experience with satisfying, quality wholesome, cafe style food and drinks. By the way Marmite is avaialble as a side order on their menu!

A lovely little cafe. Gorgeous outdoor seating surrounded by flowers and plants out in the back. The bacon sandwiches were great, but the price is quite high considering the competition in Greenwich. If you fancy a breakfast or lunchtime treat, it's perfect. If you want something cheap and cheerful, perhaps look elsewhere.

Food is average at best and prices sky high. I had a Veggie English breakfast, my partner a BLT, and a couple of coffee rounds. £24.. really needs to rethink its ethic.The staff were lovely however, which is perhaps why I left so disappointed.

We sat in the tiny courtyard on a sunny day. I had a vegetarian breakfast. It was very filling with decent quality veg sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes & eggs as well as thick granary toast. My coffee was just as good. My friend had a homemade quiche that had lovely crispy pastry & fresh salad. The cakes, especially the scones looked fab but we were too full to try them. At £21 for the two of us it wasn't cheap, but the food & drinks were good, service friendly and the atmosphere good. I'd definitely eat here again.

We love this place. Whenever we are in greenwich we pop in for a great breakfast or coffee and their fantastic carrot cake. It is so nice to go somewhere that isn't a chain and that has freshly cooked food and friendly service.

I thought I was walking into a run of the mill cafe. The inside is small clean and tidy. It was quite busy but the service was friendly and timely. I had a standard breakfast of bacon egg sausage beans and toast. In all fairness it was very nice. But at £9 not good value. By some distance.

There is only one good thing I can say about this cafe: the service was friendly. Apart from that, the decor is grubby and tasteless, service was very slow, we were the only customers in when we arrived but half the tables weren't cleared and most were still not cleared when we left 25 minutes later. Prices for afternoon tea are above the odds but quality is not - scones with butter and tea/coffee were 10 pounds but the scones were crumbly and therefore hard to butter. They do not make cappuccino. The woman serving was wearing a dirty black apron - white streaks all over it suggest she might have been out the back working with flour. This place really needs to take at itself. Why did we stay? Because it was late in the afternoon and we had walked past a number of places which were full.

We popped in for a coffee and cake. The coffee was terrible and the brownie was so tough that I couldn't get the fork in it (I wish this was an exaggeration but sadly not). Looking at the menu a quiche was £8 and glancing at other people's breakfasts showed anemic sausages and barely toasted bread. The only reason I haven't given this place 1 star is that the girl serving was apologetic about the rock hard stale cake and took it back and off the bill.

We had been elsewhere for lunch and came here for desert. It's a VERY small cramped environment but seemingly always busyThey have coffees of the day today it was a Papua New Guinea one that was lovely and a Rwandan one that was awful, but that's personal taste!I had a lemon drizzle cake that was good. We saw their menu and a "fry up" is £9 which isn't cheap, so one expects it would be amazing. So as an afterthought ordered a bacon Sarmiento to take away for later (£5) was expecting great things of it! Heavy seeded brown style bread and a mediocre amount of baconOverall an average experience not quite matching the above average prices

Dropped by for a cuppa and some cake and was very good. A laid back cafe and not rushed ( not good if you are waiting for a table) . There was a good choice of home made cakes. Coffee was good but the hot chocolate was just average. Cake was good. Courteous staff but take their time so don't come in in a hurry, was perfect for us as we were just chilling like one should do in a cafe.

We ate very nice cooked breakfasts and bacon sandwiches in the morning and went back in the afternoon for some delicious home made cakes and cream tea with cream from cornwall. We saw them taking the scones out of the oven in the morning, so we knew they would be good! All the food was homemade and came in big portions. Tea for four came in the biggest pot I've ever seen with extra hot water to make even more. The waitresses were really sweet and helped us find our way around the town and also gave us good advice about the best places to visit in London. Really friendly, nice cafe with a family feel.

Sent food back which was lukewarm. We could hear staff in kitchen saying there was nothing wrong with it and we were lying. We definitely will not be returning.

Basic cafe lacking any kind of atmosphere, decor or comfort. 2 scones with butter (NO jam or cream) and a pot of tea for 2 is £10.00. The scones were fine. In the tea pot, by the way was 1 tea bag. Advise you to keep walking on by and go to the food stalls in the Greenwich market, amazing food at a reasonable price.

Very intimate, privately owned and run. Good service.I had the vegetarian option and it was cooked to order and very tasty.

a little cafe in the heart of Greenwich town centre offers breakfast, brunch and coffee. A tight squeeze around the tables but the food and service were good. A little over priced for a cafe but it was a little up market than the usual greasy spoon! Good coffee and full English was nice!

Slow service and over priced full Englash breakfasts. For such a beautiful inviting cafe it really underwhelms and stings you with its price.

Cafè suggestivo in una delle zone Londinesi più carine. Soprattutto se il tempo è bello e si trova il posto nel cortiletto fuori. L'english breakfast è fatta come si deve e il cream tea con clotted cream, scones e jam ci fa tornare tutte le volte che andiamo a Londra.

The building and interior are very inviting. The food and service satisfactory, but nothing special and maybe a bit pricey. I had a bacon sandwich and coffee. I hope they improve. I will give them another try, just to keep a fast food chain out of there.

Over priced for weak tea and coffee, dry cakes and stingey portions. Please - there is no excuse for poor baking at these prices. A real disappointment for such a cute looking cafe.

What a rip off! Over priced, clueless staff, terrible food. I wish places like this would just close and make way for cafes that want to serve people decent food, not economy white bread sandwiches with budget fillings for £8. Horrible greedy people!

Freshly cooked, good portions and not greasy. Cafe is on the small side so at busy times you might not get a seat.

Wow, I feel sorry for unsuspecting tourists and locals alike. Service was stunningly slow and although the waitresses were sweet it just didn't make up for it. There's nothing wrong with simple food but waiting over 40 minutes for soup and a sausage sandwich is just laughable. Nearly every customer in the place waited an equivalent time while I was there. Typically, nobody complained, just fumed quietly. My 11 year old niece could get more meals out in that time. Sorry - me thinks you might be resting on laurels and just taking the tourist dollar.

Slow to start with two little old ladies running the cafe....life here is not in a hurry however the scones are delicious and tea warming to the soul... If you have the time a lovely spot to rest weary feet.

I discovered this little gem many years ago and each time I return to London, I make the pilgrimage to Peter de Wit's for an egg mayonnaise (egg salad sandwich) and a wonderful cup of tea. The food is not haute cuisine, just lovely, comfortable English fare with good tea and a wonderful view of the Greenwich bustle. I highly recommend this tea shop after visiting the Observatory or one of the museums.

if you search something "homemade" this is the right place for you. Sure it's not elegant. But for a trip to Greenwich, if you don't want an international resturant, this is a good place. Food is not refined, but absolutely genuine. kitchen is similar to country house. but i prefer this to have good cooking.we tried english breakfast and homemade cakes: cioccolate good,carrot cake excellent.it isn't a fast-food, so we don't wait a fast service, but relax in the little terrace behind the kitchen. you are on holyday!

I went to this cafe with my family for breakfast and although I expect to pay higher prices in a tourist area, this place was a complete rip off!We ordered our breakfast and our drinks came pretty quickly but we ended up waiting for over an hour for breakfast - the really annoying thing was that 4 other people who came in after us ordered their food, ate it and left whilst we were still waiting for ours!We were quite disgusted with the wait (particularly as we had to go and put more money in the parking meter) and asked to speak to the manager but was told she was too busy.The breakfast was £9 each so the total for my family with a drink each was £50 - very steep for a very sub-standard breakfast.my advice - find somewhere else to eat, there's plenty of places in Greenwich that aren't there purely to rip off tourists

This is a very small cafe decorated with handmade toys where they serve you home-made food and a serious Afternoon Tea with proper scones accompanied with jam and clotted jam. Prices reflect what you are getting and I can assure you the Ritz and Savoy do not serve scones to this level of yumminess nor do they have a warm homely environment in which to serve you. I visit whenever I can.

All we can say about this establishment is POOR - could do better. Firstly the coffee - (if you could call it that !), could best described as water with a hint of coffee flavouring. Secondly the SLOW service, we ordered some toast which we were still waiting for AFTER we had drunk our "coffee" - maybe they had forgoten the recipe ! We paid, cancelled the toast and left. We liked the lovely old kitchen chairs painted differant colours though.
