Sanctuary Cafe in Bromley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Visité el Sanctuary Cafe con mi hija la semana pasada antes de asistir al grupo de 'Tiddlers' en la iglesia. ¡Fue tan encantador y no puedo creer que nunca antes hayamos estado allí! El personal fue muy amable y vino a hablar con nosotros varias veces mientras estábamos allí y uno de los miembros del personal nos mostró el tablero de "especiales" y nos dijo lo que podíamos tener. Terminé eligiendo un pastel de té tostado y un chocolate caliente con crema del menú, que eran muy agradables. ¡Mi hija comió un sándwich de queso, pero estaba más entusiasmada con los juguetes disponibles para jugar! ¡Definitivamente volveremos a visitar el café pronto y también se lo contaré a otras personas! !

Un verdadero soplo de aire fresco entra aquí. Los alrededores son relajantes y el servicio amable. Hay una buena selección de comida para el almuerzo, pasteles, bebidas calientes y refrescos. Creo que todas las ganancias obtenidas son de caridad y todo el personal son voluntarios de la iglesia.

We loved visiting the Sanctuary Cafe again. Some of the best light refreshments in town in an unhurried peaceful environment where nothing seems too much trouble. Free WiFi and parking as well.We'll be back..next week!

Llevé a mi suegra para el almuerzo en un jueves. Rápidamente nos sentamos y nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos. El personal es particularmente amable. Mi suegra es "sin gluten" y ofreció una variedad de opciones de colocarnos en la sobresaliente y cheddar sandwich tostado. Su elección de igualada me llenaba, pero en un panini. Su latte era de una generosa porción y mi solicitud para un té fuerte' se encontraron con una bolsa extra en la olla! Tanto el sándwich y Panini venía con una ensalada mixta que era más que una guarnición de paso. No eran de hy' con la sobresaliente - y de hecho mi suegra no terminar la tercera de sus tres sandwiches - resto aseguró - me hicieron no ir a perder! Aunque no es formalmente parte de la cafetería, con una amplia selección de calidad hizo tarjetas y una tarjeta de £1 ambos son menos caros y superiores a los disponibles en la calle alta. El Santuario de Café ofrece comida de calidad y con un servicio de bebida inigualable y es verdaderamente un santuario para sus clientes Nos volveremos.

Como estoy en una silla de ruedas o scooter, es muy limitante donde puedo visitar con nivel de acceso y facilidades para minusválidos wc. El santuario cubre todas mis necesidades. Sumado a esto, la comida y la bebida es increíble! Necesidades de catering para mi dieta sin gluten también! Hay muy pocos lugares que cubren todo esto en cualquier lugar! El personal es servicial y muy agradable también. Gracias a todos los que hacen que este lugar sea posible.

Just been to the sanctuary cafe for a late breakfast. Was warmly welcomed by the lovely volunteers who run the cafe and shown to a table. We ordered a panini and tea which was freshly made to order and delivered to our table. I then indulged in having a slice of coffee and walnut cake and more tea. Everything was delicious. I would definitely recommend venturing away from the High St and coming to this hidden treasure called The Sanctuary, situated at Orpington Baptist Church.

Great place to meet with colleagues.Free WiFi, nice lunch & excellent ambience.Gave us all the time we needed without us feeling that we needed to go.

I've visited quite a few & I have to say that the Sanctuary Cafe has the best Coffee & homemade Cake in town.

A nice friendly atmosphere with quality food. The staff was friendly and even though it was in a church they only encouraged you with kindness not preaching.

We regularly visit this cafe as its a lovely family based environment and its managed with some very dedicated volunteers who make a difference to the place.The food is lovely and very competitively priced.My fav is the mushroom soup and the home made cakes. Anil

Great cakes and brilliant coffee too. The kids particularly liked the option to decorate their own cake.The service was wonderful and the whole experience just delightful. Definitely excellent value for money and would whole heartedly recommend the passion fruit cake!! Bode

Absolutely amazing cakes and coffee! Especially the gluten and dairy free ones! I have never come across gluten free cakes that are so good, and the coffee is better than any high street coffee, I don't know how they do it. Always served with a genuine smile. This cafe is ran by people who love to be there and love to serve you. A majority being volunteers, you can tell it is their passion. They will leave you alone if you want to sit and get on with some work, or the staff will spend time chatting to you if you want to chat. So child friendly, there are always toys out and activities for the kids. A pleasurable experience! And it is about 50p cheaper than high street prices.

I dropped in for cake and hot chocolate, I was spoiled for choice . The passion fruit was cake was delightful . Excellent atmosphere good value for money . Joslyn

We visited the Sanctuary Cafe the Saturday before Christmas for an early lunch. It was busier than our midweek visit. The atmosphere was friendly and the service very good. We had paninis, which were very good and value for money. We have recommended the cafe to friends and will try to visit again when it is open on a Saturday.

We so enjoy coming here it truly is a 'Sanctuary'. The staff are very friendly yet professional at the same time. We are always welcomed on arrival. There is a great selection of coffees, teas, and beautiful looking deliciously tasting homemade cakes as well as wonderfully nourishing flavoursome soups. The penenis come with a choice of fillings and are served lovely and hot with a generous salade garnish. The Sanctuary itself is clean bright and delightfully pleasant with a superb coloured glass window which looks magnificent especially when the sun shines through it. My husband and I come regularly to the café as it's our favourite place. We have taken our three grandchildren on occasions who are 7,5 and 4 years old. They enjoy sitting at the table with us doing some colouring and socialising with us, each other and the staff in very happy relaxing peaceful surroundings

I have just paid a visit to the Sanctuary cafe, having not been there for a couple of months, and how it seems to have changed. What was once a very child friendly cafe,today just seemed anti children, or should that be 18 month old babies. my little girl i know wasn't very quiet, and did scream quite a bit but sometimes that is what children do. This did not go down very well with all the elderly patrons of the cafe, and there was a lot of tutting and comments, such as ' can someone get that child to stop screaming ' but I hasten to add the screaming was only sporadic and didn't go on for the whole time I was there. What was more galling was that the Managers young daughter seemed to take it on herself to constantly tell my child off, even though my child cant speak. She then sat with her friend who glared over at us like we were aliens from another planet. To say I am sad and disappointed is an understatement, as I have been going to this cafe a lot over the past 2 years or so. But needless to say I wont be back. The good and coffee are good, no quibble there. It is a church cafe but the people there today were so intollerent, it was upsetting. Great if you are elderly or have young babies, but avoid with children in general.

That was my friend's comment when we caught up over a coffee and delicious cake last week! There is always a homemade gluten/dairy free cake on offer too!!

Thoroughly enjoyed it, came on a Saturday, bustling, great atmosphere. Had a great, big slice of cake. Very inexpensive.

Delicious cheese scones, panini, and toffee and apple cake with a good pot of tea to wash it all down. Atmosphere friendly and relaxing and staff very attentive. A lovely place to meet with friends for a catch up.

I was looking for somewhere new in Orpington to take my Grandma for lunch and was definitely not disappointed! The Sanctuary cafe is just lovely! The cafe is run by a team of happy and helpful staff and the food was fantastic. My Grandma had a brie and cranberry sandwich which came with a colourful salad and I had a roasted vegetable and goats cheese panini. We agreed that both our meals were prepared carefully and tasted great and at a reasonable price- much cheaper than other coffee shops further down the high street. Another lovely touch was some hand made cards on sale and the dairy-free orange and passionfruit cake is definitely worth a taste! Open on wednesdays and thursdays, I would highly recommend you visit this lovely new cafe.

I returned to the Sanctuary cafe in July. The quality of both the food and the service remain high. The cafe has enhanced its menu to include summer options and the ice cream sundae beats any other sundae available on the Orpington High Street - and at a less expensive price. For me - the waitered service is a definite plus when compared to other cafes or coffee shops in the area.To top it all, the welcome is always personal and one feels like a returning friend when entering the cafe. I will continue to patronise this venue. If you value fine food and service at an exceptionally good price, try this venue next time you are in the Orpington area on a Wednesday or Thursday.

I took my friend there for coffee and cake...a rare outing for her as she has mobility and eating problems due to Parkinson's but we felt completely at ease. The whole atmosphere is so welcoming, my friend relaxed and enjoyed her cream tea, we'll definitely be making it a regular trip.

Nice selection of fresh cakes and a special menu for the kids. Good, proper coffee. Everyone was most welcoming and chatty - even the other customers. Nice to be waited upon and not have to stand and queue. Very good value for money. The lunch menu looked good. But I was already full from the coffee cake.When it is open on a Saturday, I will visit it again

I absolutely love going to the Sanctuary Cafe in Orpington, and miss it on a Monday Tuesday and Friday! I wish it was open every day! The staff are always so friendly, and the food is exceptional quality and value. It is such a relief to find somewhere that caters for and understands, gluten free and dairy free diets. There is always bread for soup or a toasted sandwich, amazing fresh home made cake, and the gluten free scones are better than any 5* afternoon tea in London. The ordinary menu looks pretty good too, but for me, to be able to eat out and have a choice, and the confidence that it is actually safe to eat, is wonderful. Most places locally just don't bother with catering gluten free. Apart from that, its the best coffee around, the friendliest welcome, and I thoroughly recommend it.

The cream scones and coffee is the best for mile around! Kids enjoy it and they have things to do. Very friendly team and most welcoming.

We had lunch here with our three young children. Great kids' menu and plenty of craft and toys to keep them entertained, too. The menu even had a 'decorate your own cupcake' which our kids loved and which then came with little presentation boxes to take home. Fantastic service and a really enjoyable experience!

This is a lovely, relaxed, friendly cafe with to die for cakes and coffees. I haven't tried the panini selection yet but they looked lovely. The menu changes regularly and the team always come up with some lovely options.Staff are lovely, couldn't be more helpful and efficient. Such a great idea to bring the community together. Pop in and have a treat!

First class, fine food, friendly service, free WiFi at fantastic prices. I am running out of descriptions beginning with F! This new cafe ticks all the boxes. The cafe is set in an open forum blessed by lots of natural light. The home made cakes taste just like you wish mom had made! The light lunches are delicious and the menu is certainly not ordinary as the choice of paninis always offer something 'unusual', tasty and value for money. A friend commented that the 'salad garnish' with the panini "was not a garnish - that is a salad!"I have been several times to this 'Sanctuary' and have enjoyed both the cake menu (perhaps too much!) and the lunch menu. The portions are generous, but not wasteful, the quality is excellent but at an excellent price. If you are in Orpington on a Wednesday or Thursday, test this delight for yourself. You will be back again!

This café is an ideal place to enjoy your lunch break or a short coffee/tea break. The place is quiet, so that you can escape ffrom the rush of every day's life. The people from the staff are very friendly and welcoming and will make sure that you have everything that you need. What is also great is that there is some material that is available for toddlers and children, to make their visit more enjoyable. The food is great and is definitely good value for your money. I definitely recommend the Orpington Sanctuary café!
