Fantastic service, friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious 😋. Highly recommend this venue. Will definitely be back for more.

We visited this corner restaurant earlier for a breakfast meal. I enjoyed my tasty meal, as did everyone else. My Cappuccino was very well made, with the milked frothed nice and thick, which, when stirred in gave a lovely smooth texture. Bay leaf was just under 50%full and, by their looks, all seemed happy with the quality. Our only problem was getting too few serviettes. Well done anyway!!!

A very good Garden Omelet and a nice size mug of coffee! Service was quick and efficient.

Grill up my Friday Special, really good, couldnt even finish it. Had a lovely waitress. Servic good. Relaxing atmosphere. Will definately be back again.

Yummy Burgers. Breakfast all day, my kinda place. Enjoyed it.

Delicious Hake, and such friendly waitresses. Good value for money.

Service very bad, waited 40 min for food for 2, yet 4 people who arrived and ordered after us had already eaten half their food. Left without having any food served and only paid for our drinks.I have always supported Bay Leaf and gave them a good review, both Met Life and Bay West. Come of late their service at both branches have been going in a downward spiral.The apology that was given was that they were busy with take aways.So sit in customers takes 2nd preference and the more people at the tables also gets preference.

Good food nice place.

We eat there at least once a week and its one of my favorite places. The food is delicious, reasonably priced and they provide good quality. My recommendations are the steak tramezzini and the eggs benedict. Well done to the kitchen staff for always making such delicious food and the waitresses for always being friendly.

Well priced, friendly service, good food and excellent coffee. Busy area but pleasant environment to relax from shopping and enjoy some indulgence

Most disappointing! Plates were cold. One piece of bacon on the plate was cold & dry, scrambled egg was cold & over cooked, garnishes were not edible, toast, pre buttered was tough. Coffee was good & hot. Service was poor. Food came to the tables slowly - first ones in group had finished their plate of food by the time the rest of the group were served.

I support Bay leaf as they provide value for money and they are a local independent business.They cover a spectrum of dining needs from coffee shop time (very good cake and coffee), then full lunch (stodgy and satisfying large portions), then full dinner (steaks and fish etc) and even a liquor license for those who wish to have something to numb the day or enjoy with their meal.Locals must support Bay Leaf and lets keep this a success story.I go often to this one and in Baywest. And I will again.

Great coffee and meal

Over the past few years, The Bay Leaf has become THE only place where my family and I enjoy a meal whilst out and about. A number of factors contribute to this experience:• Budget-friendly prices.• Excellent menu.• Ingredients of the highest quality.• Friendly and knowledgeable staff.• Friendly staff.• Friendly staff,• and friendly staff.Already looking forward to our next visit 👍

Had a awesome breakfast birthday. Staff and food was excellent. Love the atmosphere. Owner and her staff were awesome, always smiling and friendly.

Food was very good but our initial waitress should rather go work at a prison service. I just asked another waitress to take over and after that happy with the service. When i eat out i want to at least enjoy the experience!

Sunday Lunch!! WOW what a pleasant surprise, food was tasteful good presented (take-away) and friendly owner!!

This Cafe is a great place to have tea or coffee. The meals are good. For our first visit it was great.

Very disappointed today for the first time

Im a regular client at this Awesome place. Was a bit disappointed to my drinks coming a tad slowly. But after speaking to my waitress our order was quick in coming ? Maybe just a once off. On the whole I love to eat here 💜💙💜

Very nice right on the lagoon in,Port Alfred and really very good value for money cheese platter.Awesome guys and good service.Love it👏👏👏👏👌

Great service and very tasty food.Will definitely go back.The Da Boss burger very nice!Prices are reasonable as well.

Waitress knew the products and was very helpful, even when loadshedding kicked in they communicated. The food was delicious

Great little eatery. Offers a menu with a good variety at reasonable prices. I have enjoyed all the meals I have had there thus far.

A serendipitous find on a trip to PE. An excellent meal, and very good value for money. I had the special: Philly steak roll, which was delicious and a very generous portion. The coffee is superb too.

Could be a lovely place. Staff friendly . Saw on LinkedIn article about eggs with plastic and rubber in. Experienced this first hand here. Showed the owner and she just said thanks for letting me know. She went to break another egg and brought it to show us it was the same. The inner lining of the egg was plastic. Did not even offer to take meal of Bill.... not for customer to ask. Owner should sort it.

Best Service in Town!Great Quality food for even better prices.Highly recommend them for any occasion.

Mid-week specials amazing...!!! Try their Chicken Schnitzel with cheese and beacon sauce.... Yummy!!!! Staff is friendly, professional..... Do yourself a favor and go on a Thursday....

My family and I have dubbed this our favorite place. Really great food at affordable prices. Their blt wraps are the best!

We waited so long for our food we asked for medium steak and got dry steak my husband asked for chip and he did even got chips in his plate

Had a wonderfull breakfast with my son. Food is really good and the staff are really friendly.

Friendly, well priced good food. Had the Quesadilla... Delish!

We were there this Sunday first time and the food was delicious.Very good Sunday lunch, generous portions and also enjoyed the grilled fish, love the little trio salad.Great service from the waitress too. Definitely be back again!

Nice atmosphere but slow service

The food is very fresh. Nice music and atmosphere. Reasonable prices

Reasonably priced, food is delicious and good service. The atmosphere is great especially when sitting outside and there is a designated smoking area.

Decent food and great milkshakes

Consistent good service, good food and value for money. Great service as usual

We had a good breakfast here. But if any coffee shop sells eggs, they need to have Worcestershire sauce and they dont. We got confused as to who was our waitress because each time she morphed into a different person of various ethnicities. But all her personas were very friendly and thats not something to complain about :)

Very good value for money. Not the healthy food restaurant that its name suggests but still pleasant and good quality

Excellent food . Great service. Staff very friendly

Lunch was good and certainly value for money. Sunday Lunch with a salad and dessert for £4.50. If you are from the UK like me or R80 in SA.

Food tasty. Service good. Prices reasonable

Always enjoy having a breakfast and coffee here when doing my shopping at MetLife. Food very nice and prompt service.

Had a great lunch. Food good and staff friendly. Service a little slow.

Only had a Hot drink but it arrived hot which I like due to lot of hot drinks ordered arrive cold already. My friend had lunch and he were satisfied.

Coffee is good, can’t say the same about the food! Sorry

Very helpful with seating as I was on crutches, quick and the food was great and at an affordable price.

Service was abit slow. Had to ask for sugar, tomato sauce. Waited. Ask waitress for bill and card machine, eventually hubby for up to ask if they would like him to pay or not.

Best dinner in a long time, large portions low price and even better service.

We love going to The Bay Leaf. Quality service and food for very affordable prices

Great service lovely food will recommend to all my friends.

If Im in PE it love to visit this Café

While inexpensive and they have a relaxed atmosphere, the food was a bit on the bland side

Very bad service, went for breakfast ask for the sauce to be served on the side and voilà. Found plastic in the beef patty, found more plastic and then returned the meal not even half eaten and still get billed the full amount. No empathy and a poor apology.

My favourite shop excellent service and delicious food

Hit and miss with this coffee shop. Sometimes the food is fine, other times not so much. Staff are friendly and service is good.

Its lovely little venue where one is able to converse casually over a cup of coffee or enjoy one of their delicious meals chosen from their menu.The service is great too.

Port Elizabeth. The Sunday Lunch was average. Raw roast potato. Fish was like cardbaord. Side salad, coleslaw was sour/off. There were 4 other tables that also had cimplaints about their food in the time that we were there. Our fiest time there, will also be our last time. The waitor Lisa however was very nice.

Excellent service and lovely place to chat that is not to noisy
