The Holly Trail Cafe in Waltham Forest

Only ever had coffee from here which was fine but service is always pretty slow.

Short walk from Chingford Overground station and on the edge of Epping forest. Good fried breakfast. Toilet for customers only. Limited indoor seating, so could be a wait for a table at busy times.

Nice little cafe. Free parking for customers.Large covered outside area for about 30 people.Coffee and cakes, great selection.Also sandwiches, fry ups. Good selection and also licensed!

Went in today for a Calipo, but had none, so took a punt on a lovely looking Victoria sponge. You have to try it. Was delicious. Thanks guys. And yes take away cake for a hike in Epping forest works.

Free parking. Blue badge holder parking available. Near to Epping Forest for bike ride or ramble before or after your snack. We had flat white coffee, which was good but felt it was on the small size. Cake was tasty, moist and smelled nice. Cafe area wheelchair accessible. Reasonable amount of covered, outdoor seating. Staff were friendly. Lost a star because young female staff member had her chin covered with a mask, and used her bare hands to lift cake on to show plates.

A good eatery to go to if you're hungry. Quality and quantity is a priority here. Spotlessly clean and friendly young staff with plenty of choice menu. Great fry up or lunch with a healthy choice or just tea and homemade cake to make your afternoon special.

Relaxed vibe friendly place - we popped in for some brunch and had a good time. Large menu & nice food, with outside eating area for warmer weather. They catered well for our toddler as well. A stones throw from the golf course and next to Chingford plain, it's great for grabbing some food mixed with a bit of nature. Also a short walk from the Queen Elizabeth Hunting Lodge & Connaught Water

Lovely food and friendly staff, but there really isn't much shade in the garden which isn't ideal, particularly as if you go in with your dog after a walk you have to sit in the garden. I've no problem with dogs being restricted to the garden, but bigger sun shades and more of them would make it so much better. We were two adults, a child and two large dogs crammed together in a small patch of shade. Not the most relaxing way to eat lunch.

I had the cream baked omelette (ham, cheese & mushroom), my girlfriend had the chicken pie. We both really enjoyed them. The kitchen is open to the cafe so you can see it all being freshly made in a very clean kitchen.

Nice little cafe on the edge of the forest, opposite the golf course. Had coffees and hot chocolates with the kids. Not the cheapest, but the drinks were good quality. They do hot food but didn't stay to try. Ideally located before hopping back on the train into the city.
