If you are looking for a relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere, friendly service and great food, Cafe Olive is the place for you. Perfect for dinner with good friends, a catch up over tapas and a wine, or chilling with a coffee, muffin and a good book.

Cafe Olive is run by Kirsty and Musti Cilekar and Emre Bozkurt. A real family business, our aim is to share our idea of hospitality with our customers. That is – warm, welcoming, relaxed, where a customer is a guest – the real Mediterranean way.

Our chef has a talent for producing delicious food that fills you up and satisfies you. His menu has a range of food that caters to many tastes – and budgets.

Emre has discovered that he has a natural talent for making coffee, ask anyone who’s had a coffee from him, he’s good!

We also believe in supporting local Nelson businesses, we buy local where we can and have a good range of local beer and wine on our menu, including Sprig & Fern beer on tap… Pete’s Lemonade is a favourite and Shelly’s ‘Shortbread House’ gluten free bread is so delicious I eat it even though I’m a gluten eater.

Cafe Olive – A taste of the Mediterranean in the Heart of Nelson.
