Belgique Cafe and Patisserie in Epping

Friendly Staff, nice coffee, however Very disappointed with the food!
la petite Belgique breakfast - 1 cold strip of bacon 1 well overcooked sausage, 1 poached egg hard yolk toasted roll, had to ask for butter.
Will not be revisiting!

The quality of the food here is not great. The fresh mint tea was off and had a sourish taste as the leaves were old and tasted off. The tea cups were dirty and not cleaned properly. I had to send the cup back. The eggs that come with a "double up" option just means the top bun is added. So it's an extra £4 to add half a bun. What a rip off!

Moved from Woodford to Epping and quality of food between both branches is dis parable. I love the Woodford branch and the food quality there is amazing but the Epping one is like a poor relation. Quality, freshness, portion sizes are not good. I ordered bacon to go with my eggs but I could only described this as grilled wafer thin ham which was burnt to a crisp. I’ve give two stars as the staff are very polite and friendly, friendly and accommodating when I complained but just a shame each time I’ve been in I’ve had to complain about something. I would t visit here, the other branches are much better.

Haven’t been for a month or so. Their response to inflation instead of raising prices and reprinting the greasy menus was to instead cut the meat parts of the portions in half. So you get these unbalanced bread heavy meals. I don’t mean light - I mean proper stingy. Count me out. Epping has plenty of alternatives now.

We were tired and thirsty after walking 11 km in the Epping Forest.
We were thrilled by the beautiful display of cakes. Decided to take some home for tea. Then I spotted the freshly squeezed orange juice machine! I couldn't ask for more! It was the perfect drink for us! The Black Forest Gateau Roll was delicious! The cherries were soaked in the liquor giving the perfect flavour! I loved it!

Saw no business hours on entrance. We entered and were given menus. Tried to order but were told kitchen closed at 4.30 so left without purchase. Would have been good to have been told about kitchen when we arrived. Disrespectful.
Menu looked good, too.

Thank you so much!

It was very tasty and pleasant

Cosy place. The service is prompt and the staff quite friendly. It is definitely an improvement compared to a few years ago when I last visited.
