About Palaette South Woodford

Palaette South Woodford serves breakfast and brunch on High Rd, with the halal "shebang" on the menu alongside the cinnamon pancake, the Mediterranean breakfast, and the gemini breakfast. French toast rounds out the food side, and drinks include fresh orange juice, iced lattes, vanilla matcha, and a blueberry smoothie. Portions run large across the menu. The kitchen closes at 17:00, and the room is walk-in only, so a wait for a table is common and guests are asked to stand nearby until one opens up. A 12.5% service charge is added to the bill.

Customer Review Summary

Diners repeatedly single out the halal shebang and cinnamon pancake as standouts, with the Mediterranean breakfast, french toast, and gemini breakfast also drawing praise, often paired with a blueberry smoothie, vanilla matcha, or fresh orange juice. Portions are frequently called generous and the food fresh, beautifully presented, and flavorful. Service is consistently described as friendly and attentive, with several reviewers naming the same hostess for making them feel welcome on repeat visits. The decor and atmosphere come up often too, described as cozy, warm, and stylish, with wifi available for laptop work. Waits are common on busy mornings, with one reviewer noting a roughly ten minute stand-by near the entrance before being seated, though most say the food made it worthwhile. One reviewer flagged the 12.5% service charge as excessive, while others called pricing and portions reasonable. Most describe wanting to return.

    “Just WOW! Went for a long walk through the local woods, this was our stop to recharge and refill. Even our toddler, who is usually apprehensive of new places, got convinced straight away by the lovely decor and the blueberry smoothie. The service was lovely, the food arrived fast and was delicious. When I asked my husband what did he like most about the walk, he said unequivocally: the breakfast! So definitely expect us to be back soon.”

    “I visited Palette Cafe in Woodford one morning and had a really pleasant experience overall. It does get quite busy, so be prepared for a short wait—I was asked to stand near the bus stop area and was called over once a table became available after about 10 minutes. The food was definitely worth the wait. I ordered the cinnamon pancake and the Mediterranean breakfast. The pancake looked amazing when it arrived and tasted just as good—soft, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The Mediterranean breakfast was also satisfying, with a nice variety of fresh and savory elements. I paired it with a fresh orange juice, which was really refreshing and a great complement to the meal. All in all, a great spot for breakfast or brunch. Highly recommended!”
