Pickled Pantry in Kingston upon Thames

Just wanted a lightish bite before the ramble. Homely decor, friendly staff. Plenty of choice of various portion sizes. Not veggie myself but chose a sandwich with veggie filling. Really delicious as was the cafe. Appreciated the water provided as well.

I love the turmeric lattes here. And the staff are so lovely too. Amazing Mother’s Day treats. Thank you Pickled Pantry!

I went here thrice with my boyfriend and we both loved the vibes of the cafe. is cute and the staff is really welcoming. the food is really yummy and tastes fresh. we also had hot chocolate that I really recommend. In all the cafe is a must visit!!!!!

This is the only place I come to for my Rooibos tea. It is purly devine tasting. If you love Rooibos tea then you def need to come here. Its organic and the ever so friendly polite staff listens to how you like it made. I am not sure . The food is good too but they never seem to have carrot cake anymore.

What an amazing cafe. Excellent food great service - highly recommended to anyone in and around Surbiton or visiting this area.

So lovely here! From the decor, to the staff to the food it was such a lovely place and can’t wait to go again! Highly recommend for any occasion!

I expected much more when I visited The Pickled Pantry. With so many coffee / brunch spots in the area, I decided to look at reviews to decide which one to visit. Needless to say, I cannot understand how this place has received so many positive reviews. In a nutshell, it is very expensive for tiny portions. The sourdough bread is thin and lackluster, very stingy bacon portions, and I genuinely still felt hungry after a very run-of-the-mill eggs benedict. Many places do a much better eggs benny for half of the price. Also, the interior is cramped, stuffy and uncomfortable in every aspect. I'm sorry to be so negative but I felt the need to write a review which reflected my experience after it was the reviews that lead me to this spot in the first place.

Wonderful place with a great garden tucked away at back. Fabulous food, great service and just overall a gem of a place. Gluten and dairy free options a plenty and the best banana bread we’ve ever had.

Calm cozy oasis of a cafe. Service was polite and quick and with a smile... Tasty veggie breakfast and lots of options on menu...

We have been visiting this beautiful little gem of a place for years. There is no comparison for first class service, amazing quality food and delicious coffee…… our happy place.

Went here for coffee and decided to order lunch. Needn’t had bothered, our lunch order wasn’t placed so we were sat there waiting for nothing! Not much of an apology from the guy with the beard behind the till. This place was once great, seems to have gone downhill.

Great pastries and coffee & a good selection of cakes on display. Staff are fast friendly and efficient. Also has a loyalty card!

Little secret garden and food excellent. Service brilliant. Something different, fresh and healthy. So enjoyed lunch.

Perfect for brunch with a mouth watering menu. Staff are all very friendly and there is a little garden at the back. I would thoroughly recommend the Pickled Pantry.

Amazing food, friendly staff and lovely local relaxed vibe without being "trendy". Everything you're looking for from a local eatery

Cosy little place to meet up with friends Great veggie breakfast and salad V nice coffee. Good service

Ordered a sandwich for a late lunch. I had cheese and branston and my husband chicken and pesto. Delicious food and a great price. Staff friendly and attentive.

Lovely food, service and Covid safe setting! We sat out in the back garden for lunch which even had rain cover and much appreciate heaters. Perfect lunch spot!

Fab. Thanks. The staff were very professional, very busy but managed to get us in. Fabulous cooked breakfast and lots of other options

Whether dining in or taking away (in this new "normal"), the quality is exceptional and the staff are wonderfully friendly. It was our favourite cafe before Covid-19 and has been our saviour since they were able to offer takeaways during lockdown. Go on, treat yourself.

Went with little ones and the staff there were extremely nice and found us a table by rearranging slightly so that we could all sit around the table together. The food is a amazing and the kids menu has a lot of options, personally would recommend and their is a beautiful outdoor garden sitting at the back.

I’ve been coming here for years. The food is always fresh and good quality, with plenty of healthy options. Staff are all lovely and it has a great vibe / atmosphere.

Love the Pickled Pantry! Great breakfasts, lunches, coffees and the pancakes are an absolute winner! Sure they don’t do fried eggs but that adds to the quirks and character of the place (plus the poached eggs are a triumph!). Tony and the team are always so so lovely and the fact you can find yourself in a queue waiting for a table shows how popular it is. Whether you have time to kill before a train, catching up with a friend or just need a break from mooching around Surbs - pop on in! Nothing is too much trouble for them and my man and I regularly indulge in delicious takeaway sausage sandwiches if we are off on a long drive.Do it!!

Great menu, lots of choice for those with special dietary requirements. Beautiful coffee and a very friendly atmosphere - would highly recommend. Meant to take a photo but the bacon and leek hash with poached eggs was far too delicious!

Delicious brunch, friendly and happy to help staff! Very busy and popular cafe, great selection of food and hot drinks! Eggs are always cooked to perfection, love the poached and scrambled eggs! Would recommend this cafe!

I can understand why this café gets good reviews, it has always been an excellent café ... however.I tried to order a bacon and egg sandwich to take out this morning: they don't do fried eggs (???) ... they offered 'scrambled eggs' as an alternative, which turned out not to be scrambled eggs but a pale yellow microwaved foam rubber. This REALLY let's down what is otherwise a great café.

There is a reason this place is so popular.Excellent service and the food is delicious. Plenty of options for everyone. I am a meat eater but even I get tempted to the veggie breakfast.Only seconds away from the station, this place is a need to know gem of Surbiton!

Quality food, beautifully presented, great coffee...great service. Love this place. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

Loved the varied choice. Two of our party were vegan but well advised and menu adjusted. Friendly service. Highchair provided for our grandaughter. Enjoyed our time

Me and my girlfriend come here all the time, and have been doing so for the past three years. We have had the same high quality service and outstanding food every time. Can’t recommend enough.

A lovely little cafe in the heart of Surbiton. There is plenty of cafes around Surbiton to choose from and we’ve tried many. This one has become a favourite due to its consistently good food and fantastic, friendly service. Highly recommend.

A dear friend took me to his favourite cafe near where he lives.

Come here every time I visit for brunch. Great brunch, especially for vegetarians and vegans. Wide variety of food and the cakes look delicious. Reasonably priced considering the area.

I stumbled across the Pickled Pantry last week and found it a great cafe for lunch and coffee, so good in fact I've been back now 4 days in a row including breakfast twice on the weekend with my toddler. The food is great (make sure you check out the specials board) and the service is incredible. Definitely worth a visit or 2!

Met my grown up children here for a birthday brunch this morning. What a delight, I had the most amazing scrambled eggs , the best I have ever had . such amazing value , wonderful service and brilliant food . It may become a regular meeting point

Lovely breakfast and perfect coffee (flat white and a latte). Very friendly service. Definitely recommend.

Really lovely cafe with tasty food. Nice little garden aswell. Thank you!

Love coming here for a nice relaxed breakfast and friendly service. Great specials, especially the various potato hash dishes! My #1 brekkie spot in town

Delicious sandwiches & scones (freshly made apparently) with tea & homemade lemonade. Waiter very quiet, obviously not in a talkative mood when we went. Made it slightly uncomfortable,, but overall would not put me off from returning

I visited Pickled Pantry yesterday for breakfast whilst I was waiting for some repairs to be done on my car. I don’t know what they do to their scrambled eggs to make them so delicious but I’ve never had eggs like them before.

Vast choice in the menu. I move their full breakfast. It's so fresh and the tomatoes come on the vine. Wide choice of teas and coffee. Also great looking cake on offer. Does get very busy though, with some seating out the back.

Drove past looking for somewhere nice for breakfast and this place delivered! Lots of locals walking in and 5☆ hygiene rating so thought it might be good. We had a full pantry and a vegan breakfast, both absolutely delicious. Americano coffees were yum too. Nice touches like water on table, clean bottles of tomo sauce, vegan butter. It also has a small garden, clean loo and space for changing babies. Very impressed, would go again for lunch!

My favourite restaurant in London since I first came here.And it's luckily close to my place. Everything is fresh and delicious and the staff is more than lovely. The man waiter has my heart,he's the sweetest. They know how to treat customers,they are all happy and smile all the time. Good job! Will definitely keep coming

We've been in Surbiton most our lives and only stumbled across Pickled Pantry as we ordered our wedding cake from them... But wow, what a find. A super cute, decent sized cafe, with delicious food served by friendly staff. The white pudding is to die for and the chorizo scrambled eggs was incredible. A choice of toasts (not just white or brown!) is also a really nice touch. You are our new fav.

A warm greeting on our arrival signalled that this coffee shop got the simple things right and so it proved. Water on arrival swiftly followed by our coffees - both were excellent (flat white and a latte). We came for breakfast and the friendly, efficient service resulted in a berry yogurt and full English arriving shortly after. We appreciated the generous serving of marmalade to accompany the wonderful sour dough toast plus quality tomato and brown sauce. Our breakfasts were equal in quality to any that we have had. This place could easily become a regular haunt if we lived 150 miles closer!

Great value fresh food and coffee. Pancakes seem to be a fairly regular on the specials menu which is highly recommended

salads should be easy to do, but so many places fail miserably. This was tasty, interesting and well put together...bravo!

Beautiful little garden in the sunshine for a late breakfast. Fresh ingredients beauty cooked and great service. Highly recommended.

We visited this cafe for the first time on Monday and we were not disappointed! I ordered the pancakes and wow they were amazing! Fluffy and with the most yummy fruit compote with a little jar of syrup!

This is now a regular stop for breakfast and any other reason to visit we can think of. Quality products used to make good food. Really lovely and friendly staff. A gem of and independent cafe

I was visiting my son last week who lives in Surbiton & we went two mornings for lovely food & coffee . We sat outside in the sun at the back & it was so lovely & peaceful.All the staff were very helpful;polite & friendly . Can’t wait to go back next time I am in Surbiton .

Located near the Surbiton rail station, this little restaurant is a gem for breakfast. Great coffee. Attentive table service, We had sourdough toast, scrambled eggs, poached eggs, yogurt, and berries. Breakfast arrived quickly. Staff were very pleasant. Great place.

Consistently good food, drinks and service at the Pickled Pantry. Often visit for breakfast and always enjoy.

We went for a relaxing Sunday breakfast, and had the pantry breakfast which was really good the sausages and bacon are definitely high standard. My daughter had “eggspreso and soldiers” effectively a soft boiled egg and dippy soldiers without the shell. She loved it and is already talking about going back again!

Fantastic coffee and food. Have come several times and always been brilliant. Fantastic drinks and very kid friendly. Very reasonably priced too

I visited for Sunday morning breakfast. Their buttermilk pancakes are second to none and better than any I have tasted in the USA. My partner had Chorizo Hash. Excellent service with a smile, very reasonable prices. We sat in the sun in the garden and it was the perfect Sunday morning breakfast. Certainly the best in Surbiton, possible the best in Surrey. I shan’t be having my Sunday breakfast anywhere else.

Always good service and delicious food. Good coffee. Outdoor seating area for sunny days. Close to the station.

Always busy,but great service and quality food. Best in surbiton for sure Lovely breakfast and coffee Specials are always worth a try....

What a fantastic friendly little cafe. Try and swing in for breakfast of lunch when I have passed and on each occasion it has been lovely. Breakfast was speedy, hot and tasty. Lunches have been different to your normal cafe, very tasty and fresh. Smiley and friendly staff. Been here a few times and look forward to my next visit. Clearly a popular place as it gets busy.

Loved that this is an independent café with a purpose to excel and they did .I had a wonderful breakfast and an amazing cup of coffee .

Very good food, amazing salads and trenches which you can share. They do excellent coffee! Staff is friendly and helpful. The place is dog friendly! Only one minus is reheated scones on weekends.

Was looking forward to my visit after being highly recommended by a friend and it’s safe to say I wasn’t disappointed. Visited around about midday so was busy but didn’t feel stuffy. I ordered the chorizo scrambled eggs with a side of spinach, it was no thrills but very yummy. Not a huge menu but still something for everybody. Friendly service with a smile look forward to my next visit.

Great little pantry based in the heart of surbiton, food is fantastic and home made. Coffee is strong and the service is unbeatable. That’s everything you need to know now go try it for yourself !

We have been coming here every Sunday for about 2 years! Since my last review my feelings towards Pickled Pantry stayed the same: absolutely love this place. Food, service, coffees - everything is on point. And this weekend they’ve introduced the most scrumptious peanut butter brownies (kudos to Eleanor). Delicious!

We visited the Pickled Pantry around 9am in the morning for breakfast - we missed the early morning rush and were able to grab a table right away. The staff were very friendly and greeted us upon arrival. It was warm and cozy inside and we thoroughly enjoyed our coffees. We also ordered the pantry breakfast and eggs on toast - the meal arrived promptly and the food was of a high quality (even the toast was hot when it arrived at the table!). Overall a great local cafe and worth a visit.

I went for brunch with a gluten and dairy intolerant friend and the staff were so accommodating. We were sat really quickly, despite the place being really busy. We ordered the chorizo hash, which was delicious, although very rich. My friend had a veggie breakfast, which she said was great. Would definitely recommend!

It certainly makes a change to find somewhere that isn’t a chain. Filled with home made goodies, breakfasts and even doggy treats this is a homely place to come for coffee. Not cheap and very surbiton, but beats the regulars.

Always so good! Never feel like had a greasy bad meal, always look forward to coming. If had a better job would be here EVERY WEEK! Love it!!!!

My family are regulars here - awesome brunch, deliciously refreshing smoothies, freshly baked scones, super fast friendly service. Just come - you will not be be disappointed !!

We love this place, it is so good!

Really nice staff and great food - I went for the vegetarian breakfast. Such a good price too! Took a brownie home for later and it was gorgeous.

I had the full English breakfast here and it was brilliant. I would have preferred house beans instead of mushrooms but they were good too. My friend had the chorizo eggs and was similarly delighted. The coffee was excellent too. I thoroughly recommend this place.

A friend and I went to Pickled Pantry for lunch on Tuesday. We had to wait a couple of minutes to be seated as it was so busy but worth the wait. As soon as we were seated we were offered drinks. Great coffee! We both chose the trencher for lunch, open sandwich with loads of salad, I had extra avocado and bacon on mine, delicious! Will definitely be back when I'm in Surbiton next.

We have visited The Pickled Pantry in Surbiton twice and we are still not very impressed with their breakfast, which is a shame because the staff were okay. The eggs, as an example, tasted vinegary, watery and their eggy goodness leeched out of them rendering them tasteless. I have had different types of eggs in my life and I don't add any seasoning on my food so that I can taste the true flavour. However, this took blandness to a new level.

We went there for a quick lunch and really liked it. They offer sandwiches, soups, salads and quiches among other things. Their cakes are lovely and taste homemade and have a nice flavour and the staff is very friendly. Depending on what you choose the portions can be a bit on the small side, which can both be good or bad depending if you want a light meal or if you have a big appetite.

Been here a couple of times and really rate this place. It’s easily the best coffee in Surbiton, the breakfast selection has something for everyone, the prices are reasonable and the staff very friendly..

Delicious coffee, sandwiches made with proper bread and great place for brunch.

We went here a number of times for brunch with some visitors from America. The waiting staff were relaxed, friendly and helpful. There was a lot to choose from with great vegetarian and vegan options. The choice of delicious full breakfasts was great although my favourite was the smashed avocado with poached eggs. Good coffee, large selection of teas and a lovely atmosphere. Quite busy but never too noisy and we were never rushed from our table.

The café has friendly helpful staff and a surprise sunny courtyard. We just had tea (great selection of teas) and next time plan to eat here because the menu is interesting and the food looks amazing. The atmosphere is really good like a traditional café.

We enjoyed a lunch here, the coffee was excellent and the sandwiched fresh, large and very tasty. We decided to have a brownie and milkshake to finish off, all delicious. The only negative is the cost is a little high, but then you get what you pay for! Will be back soon when feeling like a treat.

This is a great little cafe with nice decor and even better food.

Arrived about 8.45am on a Saturday morning and were delighted to see an empty table for the 3 of us.

Have come here a few times and always had a great meal. Service is great, food is good quality and cooked to perfection. Great prices too! A definite recommendation.

This is a great place to meet for a relaxed work meeting and the service is excellent. I was delighted that you can run a tab at a table just for coffee and diet coke. No pressure but great service when you want it.

3 of us popped in for a late lunch - great food, friendly service. Can recommend the peanut butter brownies!

My wife and I and our three young children aged 7,5 &3 thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast at the Pickled Pantry recently. It’s not the first time we’ve visited and from our experience I’d say it is consistently great. I love the PP breakfast- but I order extra sausage because one of my kids always pinches one! They enjoyed pancakes and croissants. Smoothies were amazing too. The staff couldn’t be more friendly. Recommended!!

What a delightful find .We sat in the garden ,so relaxing .Only had time for drinks ,they were delicious .Reasonable price too.What impressed me the most was as soon as we sat down we were given water ,too often we have to ask but not so here .A little touch that makes a lot of difference .The young man that served us was charming ,could not have mad us feel more welcome .We won't hesitate to return or recommend .

This little café has only a few bare tables, so you may be asked to share. It provides coffee and cake, breakfast or brunch. It is not normally open in the evening, but occasionally there is a supper club event. What marks it out is the trouble that the young owners of the business have taken to provide food that is simple, but of high quality - so that even a breakfast of toast, marmalade and coffee, which I ate there recently, was an enjoyable experience - despite having to queue at the till behind commuters collecting take-away coffees in order to pay the bill. Probably the best place in Surbiton for a quick bite.

The place is really nice, can be very busy at times. They have a small garden at the back. Food is really nice, especially cakes and scones (recommend cream tea!). Staff is always friendly and smiling. They change my coffee to late when I mistakenly ordered wrong drink without any problems. The only minus: no air condition (ornate t doesn’t work) and sometimes is really hot. Definitely we will be coming back.

Excellent cheery staff, lovely sandwiches, and real leaf tea, reasonably priced too. Definitely will be back.

Have been on several occasions for breakfast and the quality of the food is good, the prices are reasonable and the staff are so friendly and so happy to get you anything you need. Really worth a visit.

Once again the pickled pantry has provided a gorgeous homemade lunch! Each element cooked to perfection! Providing good quality and economically sourced ingredients! Staff are so friendly and go out of their way to help! Definitely worth a visit

Cute and quaint cafe, homely sort of feel with beautiful looking pastries etc.

The Pickled Pantry! What a find! Quaint, modern and homely. Definitely Surbiton’s “best breakfast find”. Delicious food presented so well. Cozy atmosphere with outdoor garden at the back of the property. Friendly staff and efficient service every time you visit. We made it a regular stop, while visiting Surbiton.What more could one ask for?

We are breakfast at this small cafe with our 1 year old son. The service was exceptional and food the vegetarian and vegan breakfasts was excellent, the coffee was ok but not the best in the local area.

I have lived in Surbiton for four years and frequently visit the Pickled Pantry, and have never been disappointed. Good, friendly service coupled with good freshly prepared food at a fair price gives it a winning combination. Highly recommended.

I usually visit this establishment when I visit my daughter and granddaughters . I come over from Cork Ireland.

This place is a real asset to the area. Lovely varied menu, nice atmosphere inside and out. The one-off evenings which they organise are well worth booking for.

One of my favourite places for coffee, brunch, lunch and anything else! The staff are super friendly and attentive and the food is amazing. They have different breakfast specials every now and then which is nice and the coffee is lovely (plus they ask if you want it in a mug which is great). Can’t wait to go back again!
