The Bookstore Cafe - Menu

Love this place! Great atmosphere, really welcoming, tasty food and good range of drinks. Fantastic building too, fantastic to seeing it coming back to life!

LOVE this little gem of a café! We bring our dog here too and she loves it just as much as we do! The food is delicious and the staff are incredibly friendly, would recommend this place to anyone!!!

We came Wednesday morning for breakfast. I had the poached eggs with salmon on sour dough bread my husband had the pancakes. Both were absolutely delicious (although maybe add golden syrup as an option). The restaurant was very clean and the staff both extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Can't wait to go back

I came here for Brunch on a sunday with friends including kids and a baby. Highchair and changing tables are both available to use. We all really enjoyed the food and had eggs and pancakes. Its all freshly made and came out rather quickly. Its a cute place to eat and theres an outside area where you can sit as well.There is a big wooden Connect 4 to keep you entertained. I ll definitely come back to try the cakes next time.

We have lived in the area for 4 years now and when we heard this cafe was opening its doors we were really excited! We frequently visit The Bookstore Cafe with friends and family and we absolutely love it. The prices are beyond reasonable and the quality of the food is just brilliant. They also do great a job of putting on events for the local community and there is always something cool going on whether it be a themed night for dinner, games night, workshops or pop-ups! Couldn't recommend this place enough!

This café has got to be to best place to go for stunning food, great coffee and friendly staff. I came in today for cakes for work, and they were just delicious. Chocolate brownies, flapjacks, lemon drizzle cake and carrot cake, all baked to a high standard.The café was very clean and tidy, and has a very homely feel to it, the atmosphere makes you want to stay and help out! The toilets are in good order with the décor in keeping with the building.The café is family friendly, all the staff a happy to help with children and people in higher numbers alike.I love this café and will pop in any time I can.

We’ve been coming here to eat since the opening weekend at the start of 2019 and every single time we’ve eaten well! The poached eggs with salmon and hollandaise are always cooked perfectly and my other half is a big fan of the ham, mustard and cheese toastie! Can also recommend the French toast, pancakes, sausage and mash and the quiche and salads. Finally, do yourself a favour and stop by on a Saturday to get a slice of the Saturday Special cake... it’s always a sight to behold! If you’re in the mood for a yoga class or want to learn more about the history of the old library, this is also the place for you! Thank you so much for coming to Erith and brightening up the cafe scene the communi...

We have been visiting The Bookstore a couple of times a week, since the opening day in Feb and just can't stay away. We love it and so does everyone we've ever brought with us! Our little boy either falls asleep, as he's so relaxed when we visit or he cries when we have to leave, because he's had such a good time! The food is gorgeous, with a great selection of top quality homemade dishes, all reasonably priced. Loads of lovely drinks to choose from, including wines and local beers. The themed evening menu of a weekend is always exciting and it's a big bonus that this cafe is open late some nights. They have lots of events on in the cafe and the old library, game nights, markets and concerts...

My sister has visited here a number of times in the last year and so it was the perfect place to go for her birthday brunch especially when we were catering for different tastes and preferences in the food. Firstly it's a great venue, spacious, light and airy. The tables are a great size and although communal the seats aren't crammed together so there's space to eat. The staff are lovely. The brunch menu was varied and had plenty of veggie options. The food was cooked really well and plated up beautifully with a nice salad dressing. Between us, we had scrambled eggs on toast with smoked salmon, smashed avocado on toast with feta cheese, sausage and cheese toasted sandwich with onion marmalad...
