Great garden seating area with a fountain which is really calming and relaxing and you really get to enjoy your food, even forget that’s your still in Pretoria . Friendly service, food was really great just the cappuccino was a bit cold either than that great place especially for Sunday breakfast

Went there for a Sunday breakfast because we were in the mood for something different and we were not disappointed at all. The menu may be temporary due to new management but there were still so many options available. Pleasant atmosphere, good service and great food. Tables are nicely spaced so you don't hear your neighbors conversation and there were two beautiful dogs running around. Will find out if we can take ours there next time. Two cocktails to end our time there and we've said we will definitely go back for some amazing looking pizzas and burgers sometime.

What a lovely, tranquil setting to enjoy breakfast or lunch. Dine inside or outside. My favourite is the kaaings and pap! Delicious. And good service too.

Situated just north of Pretoria, the Green Olive can be found just off Sefako Makgatho Road. If outside dining is your thing then I would recommend this outing. Seated under the trees you can most definitely spend some social time here. Their menus offer a variety of Burgers, Wraps, Breakfasts, Salads etc. Their food is very tastefully prepared and they are not shy when it comes to portion size. You will be happy, satisfied and don't forget to ask about their options for your sweet tooth.

This was a good outing... breakfats menu looks a bit 'uhmm-n-aaah' but when the food arrived i was pleasantly surprised... portions were good and the coffee was very good!!! The setting is different than what we might be used to but very interesting as there's little shops and a nursery surrounding the place... tried the 'Oupa' breakfast that was served with Pap and Kaiings(traditional 'afrikaans' delicacy).. must say it hit the spot like totally.. will go there again... thumbs up from me!!!

If you're looking for a relaxing environment and not the typical mall restaurants, this place is ideal. Enjoyed great food under the trees while the kids had a ball at the large playground area. There is a very large area where the tables are spaced, so you're not bothered with constant noise from the neighbouring tables or cramped space with too many people. The waitress was excellent. We had breakfast (fried egg, bacon, toast etc). Quality and portion was very good. Will definitely visit again.

The Green Olive is rustic and old fashionedly decorated. It is true, children run around outside with gay abandon, making noise as children do! (No problem for me though!)
On a freezing afternoon, I had hot chocolate (✔️) and Waffle with cream and (maple?) syrup. Fresly made from their own batter and served warm, it was delicious.
The waitress was keen to do well and friendly. Portions are generous and easy on the pocket.
And, while you are there, do buy some coffee beans from their neighbour, The Red Truck Coffee Roastery!!

Deel van 'n kwekery uit op Sefaku Makgatho (Zambesi rylaan). Onopgesmuk met vriendelike diens en goeie kos. Die plek was gesellig vol op 'n Dinsdagmiddag. Lekker speelplek vir kinders.

This is a family orientated restaurant with designated area for children to play. Wonderful tranquil atmosphere to enjoy outside lunch. The owner himself gives a personal touch to the food. I highly recommend The green olive for couples and families.

This place is INSANE! It is a nursery, restaurant, coffee shop, gallery, knick knacks to buy, party venue - all rolled in one!

Their decor is cozy and lovely and paintings for sale are all over. In winter, they have a nice fire going inside the restaurant. The garden area is big and lovely.

Their food is insanely good! And different.

(10 September 2016)  For brunch, I ordered the rosti baskets, filled with creamy chicken livers and scrambled eggs.  Soooo yummy!  My niece ordered the French toast with cheese, bacon and syrup and said it was gooood.

Of course we decided on dessert ... oh yes!!!!  I ordered the chocolate and caramel cake ... what a creation!!!!!!!  Real sweet and a real big portion, but soooooooooooooooo good!!!!!

My niece ordered the Red Velvet Cheesecake ... it was a big portion, was rich but oh goodness, sooo good!  You have to order at least one of these cakes!!

(2 May 2015)  Stopping at Green Olive, it really is a 'must visit' place!  They have a whole upstairs area for private parties.

Hein had boerewors, pap, sous, eggs and cheese.  It looked yummy and he said it was.  I had a croissant with salmon and cream cheese.  Oh my gosh.  For R50, this was just amazing!!!  It came with slices of green apple.

Pity this coffee shop is sooo far from Johannesburg ....

(July 2013)  I had 2 Sun-Dried Tomato Waffles served for breakfast with egg and greens. Hein had Pap and Boerewors with tomato relish.

The presentation is just lovely, the food is different and very very good!!!

At the back, in-between the nursery, they have this 'browsing' area - you can find old pots/pans/wheel barrows - anything!

You have to visit the Green Olive!!

Enjoyed the experience. Food was good. Was disappointed that meals did not come with anything extra like chips or salad with the omelette that I ordered. For a Sunday I would recommend extra waiters. All the waiters was extremely helpful and professional. This venue is beautiful with a fireplace for those colder winter days.

What a lovely place. Love the olden atmosphere. Sorry, i forgot to take the name of the guy who came to welcome us at the table. A real soft-spoken gentle soul with the biggest sunshine smile. No wonder I missed his name tag. Really a lovely place.

Loved the place! The venue is beautiful with lots of tables under big shady trees. Food was stunning, we enjoyed the appetizer platters and every bite was scrumptious. The restrooms are so refreshingly clean and pretty, I felt like a lady. Lots of parking and easy accessible. Will hopefully visit again.

Excellent place to have a meal in a quite relaxed garden environment and also visit a well layedout nursery with a wide range of plants at competitive prices. Good place for wheelchair access in the restaurant garden & also caters for youngsters.
