Twisted Zest Cafe and Restaurant

Hands down the best coffee in Croydon. This is my new favourite place to splurge on brunch before facing the supermarket.

I recently had a fantastic experience at Twisted Zest Cafe. The owners were incredibly welcoming, adding a personal touch to the visit. I opted for the Zest Big Breakfast, and it was a delight – delicious and generously portioned.

The ambiance was equally impressive, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The quirky decor added a unique charm to the place, making it a perfect setting for a relaxing meal.

In summary, Twisted Zest Cafe exceeded my expectations with great hospitality, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended! Can't wait to go back and explore more of their menu.

Surprisingly good..
My partner and I live in the area this Cafe is located we have walked past it several times to go to the supermarket near by, but we have never stopped in.
Untill, one morning after an early gym workout we were looking to go have breakfast somewhere and none of our usual favourite cafes were open, so I did a quick internet search to see if anything was open for breakfast at 7:30am and I was led to this place so we thought ok let's give it a shot..
And the verdict was good, great coffee, nice service and our
breakfast was good with great portions and reasonable prices.

Been coming here for around 12 years and have gone to hundreds of different places for food and this is hands down the best joint we have ever found never been let down and the eggs are always perfect!!!! The coffee is the best don't really have much more words to describe there is a gooood reason they have been here for so long. Love you guys!!! 😍

Had brunch at the Twisted Zest Cafe, I had “The Hash” it was delicious, creamy and the spicy chipotle hollandaise sauce topped it off with a bit of kick
I also had a Affogato (scoop of ice cream with espresso extracted on-top of it) which was a nice sweet addition to brunch
The service was great (was served by the lady with the purple hair) she was very quick and efficient and you can tell she has a passion for what she does
Great little brunch spot
Attached are some photos of the scrumptious meal I had!

Delicious food for the perfect sunday brunch. We ordered the burger and fettuccine pasta they were absolutely delishhhh. This is the perfect spot for a Sunday morning friends catch up

A bit pricey but the food is definitely worth it. Lovely atmosphere especially after the shop overhaul they recently did.just make sure you have a big appetite because the burgers are big. Only thing is I wish they brought back the $10 burger combo.

Love this place coffee and food is amazing!! Staff are friendly and kind

Newly renovated this cafe is a must to visit. Amazing staff and service. Great food and best coffee in Croydon.

The brekky focaccia is so good it’s extremely filling and hard not to want everyday! The coffee is great everything is reasonably priced and great for a cheat day.

Most amazing staff and best food!! Accidentally screwed up my order (my own fault NOT STAFF FAULT) and they took complete care of me, staff and chef! If I could eat here everyday I would! If you want good breakfast/cafe. This is it!!

Our fav cafe! We come here most Sundays and during the week if we’re really cheeky, delicious food, awesome coffee & friendly staff! Loves zest & esp love their chipotle hollandaise ❤‍🔥💯

I myself don't really leave reviews unless necessary, this is kind of odd to say and some may not understand some might not feel the same way (each to their own I guess) but I personally hold great respect to this business and its people as they were the first business to treat me like a human being when I was at my lowest. Because sometimes it's the feeling of being wanted that makes you come back for more. P.s I also love their coffees 😁✌

I was recommended this cafe as a hidden gem of Croydon a while ago, and I have never looked back. I have been here several times, the coffee is the best around, and the food (burgers) are to die for. Really, the food is fantastic.

I have tried the main street cafes, and find them over-rated, expensive, and the coffee average. Seriously, the coffee here is the best. Sooo goood.

The staff are great, and have always greeted me with a smile. I noticed a lot of older seniors gather there at lunch time, and the atmosphere was great. Staff and customers were joking like old friends.

Anyway, check it out. It's chill and a great place to relax.

Great atmosphere, food and attentive service.

Best cafe ever! I have never had a bad experience from this cafe, there coffee and food is divine and the staff are incredible.

Rennovated... updated menu... had a lovely steak. Best steak sauce in town.

The food is exceptionally good and so as the service. I just love the Pancakes. The taste and the presentation is awesome. Best Cafe ever visited till date. Must try.

We went for breakfast,fantastic food and perfect coffee,will definitely be going back. Probably the only downside was the squeaky door but hopefully that's fixed by the time we go back!

Great food, Great service & awesome new renovation. Twisted Zest has clearly put a lot of time and effort into their new look and it really shows. The atmosphere is amazing and it feels very calming and beautiful whether you choose to sit inside or outside. Not only do Kooks and the team go above and beyond to cater for all but the food is purely delicious!
