Nestled in the heart of Mount Pleasant, Olive and Oil is a delightful café that has earned its reputation as a local gem for both locals and visitors alike. With its charming ambiance and a menu that tantalizes the taste buds, this café is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy a leisurely meal at any time of the day.
At Olive and Oil, the focus is on wholesome, hearty breakfasts and vibrant café fare that showcases fresh, seasonal ingredients. Start your day with their Homemade Granola topped with citrus-infused Greek yogurt, rhubarb, berry compote, and seasonal fresh fruit. Each bite is a refreshing burst of flavor that perfectly balances sweetness and tang. For pancake lovers, the Buttermilk Pancakes drizzled in caramel and layered with caramelized bananas and vanilla ice cream will take your breakfast experience to new heights, with a delightful crunch from the pistachio and Biscoff crumble. The Turmeric Porridge/Bircher is another standout, offering a warming, nutritious option that you can enjoy hot or cold, enriched with coconut yogurt and a medley of fresh fruits and nuts.
For those looking to customize their meal, Olive and Oil offers an array of add-ons like rich poached eggs, crispy bacon, or sautéed spinach, allowing each guest to create their perfect breakfast plate. The café also features an enticing selection of sweet and savory muffins, making it a perfect spot for both a hearty meal and a light snack.
The dining atmosphere is equally inviting, with a cozy and relaxed vibe that encourages guests to linger over their meals. As one customer, Ella, affectionately noted, the service is swift and the staff are incredibly friendly, making every visit feel welcoming. Even on a quieter day, you can enjoy the spacious seating, allowing you to settle in comfortably with a coffee the size of your choosing — though, a note to coffee aficionados: the options currently range from medium to large only.
Taking into account feedback from patrons like Janile who loved the garlic mushrooms paired with an outstanding cappuccino, it's clear that at Olive and Oil, each meal comes with a commitment to quality and presentation. Whether you are indulging in a lusciously creamy shakshuka or enjoying a perfectly brewed cup of coffee, the experience is designed to delight your palate.
Although the café's exterior is undergoing roadwork, it doesn’t detract from the cozy haven inside, where you can indulge in great food and refreshing drinks. So, whether you’re a local looking for a new favorite spot or a visitor exploring the area, make sure to stop by Olive and Oil — it’s a deliciously welcoming experience that you simply cannot miss.
