Zest Cafe - Carta

Great food and kudos to the staff for helping us narrow down the menu for my wife’s various food intolerances. Highly recommended!

The food at this restaurant is delicious and the staff are very friendly. We will definitely return and are planning to stop by again on our way back from Devon.

Met here for lunch with a friend. Had a brilliant breakfast. The sausages were absolutely banging. Best breakfast I've had in ages. Staff are really friendly and welcoming. Ver carta

For any visit, Zest ticks all the boxes. The staff are very friendly, helpful and good at their jobs, they serve an excellent breakfast and a full range of lovely coffee. As the menu shows, prices are also very reasonable.

What a find. First time at this cafe it will not be our last. We had homemade cheese onion pie, salad chips and it was delicious and filling, the premises were lovely clean and the staff really nice. Prices very reasonable, what a Gem.

I recently found out that I have Coeliac Disease, which means that gluten is harmful to my digestive system. This was my first time ordering gluten-free food at a restaurant and I am happy to report that Zest did a great job. My wife and I both enjoyed a delicious bacon and Brie toasted sandwich with a side of salad and gluten-free crisps. The portion size was generous and the food was tasty. Well done, Zest! Ver carta

It was a lovely breakfast as you can tell from photo. Only issues were tomatoes were very acidic almost like they were on the turn and the waitresses forgot the extra hash brown for my mum. No sauces weren't offered or salt pepper we had to ask. When when we asked for another pot of boiling water it was like warm . Lovely produce though and nice music being played even outside so it was a nice atmosphere. Overall very good food though

My visit to this café in early July was excellent. We were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and our order was taken quickly by a young waitress. The coffee was delicious and the homemade food was tasty. However, when we returned last week, we were disappointed. It took a while for our order to be taken and the waitress seemed unfamiliar with using the coffee machine, resulting in weak cappuccinos. The service was not as friendly, and the food was bland, with the mash tasting like it came from a box. It seems that there has been staff turnover and inadequate training for new members, which is unfortunate as we had hoped to make this café a regular stop in Honiton.

We were asked to move as soon as we sat down, my green tea was served in a mug and was stewed by the time it arrived. When my husband asked for a brown sugar for his coffee the Waitress produced one packet of white sugar from a pocket in her apron. Meanwhile the couple on the next table sent their coffees and milk back as the milk had gone off, when they had fresh coffee given the lady said to her husband , the milk jug is filthy and picked off crusty bits of something off the rim. This put me off my food before it arrived. When it came, the breakfast was ok but this is not somewhere we will be returning to. A shame as we used to love coming here before it was taken over.
