Great spot now called Village Cafe but same great food. Got there after lunch stopped but had some nice cheesecake and coffee. Doggy friendly also. Took home a frozen vegetable lasagna for dinner it was delish!

Lovely atmophere, good coffee and we enjoyed the eats

Everything is delicious, and the coffee roasted on site is exceptional...do not pass through Notties without stopping here!

Lovely, cafe with a homely feel and delicious and healthy cafe food. Mick, I love visiting Café Bloom. You and your staff are always so welcoming and friendly!

Wish we had found this place sooner during our stay in the midlands. Lovely fresh food and cozy atmosphere

Cosy country house coffee shop, we always buy their brownies. Tried the cheesecake and was not dissappointed.

Food was amazing. Great variety. Would really recommend a visit.

Had a thoroughly great lunch here. It is buffet style where they weigh your plate and you pay accordingly but honestly worth every penny. The food is scrumptious! Will be back very soon with my family.

A hundred nooks, each special in their own way. A ray of sun in the garden, out back, a cozy couch by the fireplace. And the food is amazing. Youll feel taken care of from the moment you step through the door.

Loved this unique and fresh place!!

Most Delish lunch ever - so many delicious choices on the harvest table. Yum yum yum.

Magnificent! Relaxed

Food was amazing! As was the drinks and atmosphere!

Very good friendly service, fresh high quality food

Excellent coffee and breakfast freshly served. Service good. Cosy atmosphere. Mushroom heaters when cold! Makes a huge difference.

Harvest table is a winner. Wholesome freshly prepared food. Good veg or vegan options too. Chat to the staff and owners. Theyre legends

They have a fantastic harvest table for lunch everyday with so many good veggie and non-veggie options to choose from. Everything is freshly made, healthful and super delicious. We went in just before closing time and the harvest table was almost empty so the owner prepared some freshly picked salads to supplement the harvest table. Sublime food! Excellent service. My favourite place in the midlands to eat.

Loved this place for brunch. We sat outside on the patio under some trees and had a great meal. Eggs are divine, and they served great coffee. With a stop if youre in the Midlands.

What a lovely little spot! Tasty treats and we loved sitting on the verandah. The food on display all looked delicious.

4.95 Wonderful. Delicious food friendly efficient service.

I had the mushroom burger and enjoyed it from the very first bite. Great and friendly service...

Great coffee shop. Mouthwatering buffet lunch displayed. Sadly we had to eat elsewhere. Definitely wouldve preferred their lunch

My favourite local restaurant. The lunch buffet is the best Ive ever had. Its healthy, delicious & beautiful. The brownies are also the best.

Best country breakfast in the area. The ingredients were all fresh and the service awssome. Highly recommend the grilled trout and scrambled eggs on wholewheat with fresh garden herbs. Thank you cafe Bloom.

Great food! Best selection that even suits vegetarians. Fresh greens look like they come from the garden at Bloom. Delicious desserts. Chocolate brownie my favourite. Polenta cake great for gluten free fans.

Service was spotty at best. The food was good. Enjoyed what I ordered but very limited menu plus the pay-by-weight buffet. Not bad but not great. Prices are a bit steep as well.

Mick provided truly awesome catering for our Michaelhouse Matric Ball Pre photo session get together. Cafe Bloom highly recommended for any private catering function (and the food at the Gowrie restaurant is also unequalled in the Notties area)

Loved the kitchen table with many yummy choices available.

Once again good food and very nice vegetarian dishes at lunch time

Had a fabulous coffee and really yummy chocolate tart. Cosy, comfortable, and friendly and efficient service. Definitely recommended.

Enjoyed a beautiful breakfast among displays of cut flowers, local wares and home-made produce. Wandered upstairs where we observed a lone migrating stork through the attic window. The maitre d and friendly locals made us feel at home. Our only regret was that we couldnt linger longer.

Ive always loved Cafe Bloom, but now I find the new setting in Gowrie Village has even more appeal. The smart attractive restaurant provides a delightful village atmosphere in which to enjoy the cuisine for which they have become famous.

Excellent food from the harvest table. Lovely lunch whilst on a road trip. Excellent coffee. Worth the wait

Nice place in a beautiful part of Nottingham road. Just a shame the bathrooms are outside

Great fresh food..very peaceful place to eat.

Most pleasant stop on the way to South Coast or back! Delicious freshly made food and cakes. Abselutely unique menu which will not dissapoint, especially lunch! Friendly service in a great atmosphere! Love it!

Charming and historic building. Lovely cosy restaurant, with a great selection of small meals and healthy, but tasty options. Coffee is good too. Friendly staff. Lovely and characteristic.

Odd reception, with the staff seemingly confused at our request for a table. Perhaps were meant to seat ourselves, but it cant be unusual for people to ask for a table. Very slow service despite not being full. I had nearly finished my drink by the time my husbands came. Food was tasty, although my eggs were half raw, including the whites, despite my request for hard, or well done eggs. Even the neighboring table to us didnt seem to get all their drinks. For a beautiful spot in a stunning estate I expected at least an average experience, but was diaappointed.

We discovered this small gem while looking for somewhere different to eat. Great breakfast and service. Coming back soon.

Fantastic healthy food, great colorful harvest table and insightful barista!

A very quaint spot with the most amazing harvest table! A must for Saturday lunch - get there 12 sharp!

Refreshing.

Cosy Cafe with tasty food at reasonable prices.

Wonderful ambience. Great cappuccino and friendly staff.

Lovely family business. Best coffee on the Midlands.

A unique half way stop to the south coast.

Awesome coffee friendly staff and yummy food

Quaint coffee shop with delicious cheesecake and healthy meals.

Amazing toasted sandwiches, decor and art. Waitress was friendly and attentive.

Fantastic ambiencd and an amazing menu. Excellent choice for a coffee and light lunch.

Kitchen closed early in the day. Maybe the locals are used to cafés not staying open... As a tourist, it was annoying to walk into a cafe after reading the menu outside, only to be told we wouldnt be served...

Really super South African fusion food! A Great effort!

Everything one wants: excellent coffees, tea and breakfasts as well as scrumptious but wholesome lunches, all set in a tranquil haven with place to sit inside as well as al fresco.

Relaxed, and excellent food.

Wonderful filter coffee, tranquil but warm atmosphere. Good for the soul and friendships

Lovely atmosphere and variety of tasty food!

Fresh, healthy and homely buffet style lunch. Will definitely go back.

Amazing Sunday lunch buffet . Thick salmon with garnish on giant mishroom. Avo, broccoli, brie salad with sesame seads. Great deserts. Yum.

A warm cosy haven where we found delicious food (and at a very reasonable price). We will stop here again!

Delicious healthy food and warm friendly atmosphere

Food is always very fresh and tasty. Lovely ambiance!

The best cheesecake and toasted cheese sandwich i have ever had

Good company and great food

Really good cheese cake

Some attention is needed for the service. Food was okay, but waiting 50+ minutes for scrambled eggs and filter coffee... better waste your time elsewhere.

Made special effort to allow us in even after they were closed. Divine cake, the lemon polenta is extraordinary!

Cafe bloom came highly recommended but it was a disappointing experience. The service was horrible. Our waitress was unfriendly, disinterested and got our order wrong multiple times. One of our orders was totally forgotten. The food took a while to arrive and wasnt anything to write home about. For the exact opposite experience I would recommend Barbz Cafe which is 30 seconds away. At least youre greeted with friendly smiles there and the food is great.

Food amazing, location excellent

Perfect hospitality and wonderful fresh, creative dishes plus cake to die for (a chocolate one, and a fantastic lemon polenta drizzle cake). 👌

Quaint little place with fresh and wholesome food on offer

Great food and friendly service.

Nice meal quiet location

Wow my old favourite

Cozy setting. Good food and coffee.

The waitress was friendly and helpful. She went out of her way to to provide good service. The breakfast was delicious and. I really enjoyed the bringal as an alternative to bread. Great for those trying to cut carbs.This restaurant has recently moved and the new spot is spacious with the option of sitting indoors or outside. We enjoyed sitting in the garden area with the family but the indoor tables and comfy chairs looked quite inviting too. This is a cosy place to relax and the coffee was good too.High quality rugs, carpets and throws are available at the shop adjoining the Cafe.It was a convenient place to stop for breakfast after leaving the Kamberg reserve early in the morning. We will definitely do this again..

Quality food. Lots of character.

Great veggie option for Notties

Delicious buffet. Will be back.

Lemon Polenta at Cafe Bloom is always the best 😁

Great veg options, comfortable quiet setting, and good service!

Very good food, amazing selection of mostly vegetarian food prepared from mostly organic home grown ingredients.

Quaint and friendly all homemade goodies

Best breakfast/lunch experience in Midlands. Organic/fresh food on harvest table with flavours for the foodies and a brilliant rustic ambience under the vine in summer and near the fireplace in winter.

Not bad. Not great. Had the toasted chicken sandwiches. They were OK.

Cafe Bloom has moved it is now in the Gowrie Centre, opened there April 1st 2019 (No this is not a joke)This is where Notties locals go. Excellent food and service. 2014 winner of best South African country restaurant. Husband and wife artists Mick and Sally Haigh have work on show.

Good food, good service, pleasant little garden out back

Amazing venue, delicious food and friendly staff

The staff are friendly, food is tasty and there is even a fire place for those chilly winter days.

Also liked the food here and that it comes from the location

Lonely place to have light lunch or a good coffee :)

Great tosted zarms

Very few menu options for food and the food wasnt great but nice atmosphere and great coffee.

Utmost friendly staff

Lovely beautiful and tasty food

Service needs attention . Organic food but flies are a distraction . Great setting - needs some tlc

Overpriced and under delivered lunch meal. Dont bother.

Lovely space.

Awesome service!!! Awesome food!!!

Nice breakfast, except for the hard toast

Lovely food.
