Olives Et Al in Poundbury

Seasonal food with an Olives Et Al twist

The Potting Shed is our café, deli and restaurant in the heart of Poundbury—a relaxed place to eat, meet and enjoy food inspired by the flavours of the Mediterranean.

Our open kitchen cooks with the seasons, creating generous, flavour packed dishes using fresh ingredients and taking inspiration from the olives, oils, dressings, sauces, pestos and spices found in our range.

The menu changes throughout the year, making the most of what’s in season and whatever has captured the imagination of our chefs. Expect familiar favourites, Mediterranean-inspired ideas and plenty of the bold, interesting flavours we’ve loved sharing since 1993.

From coffee to lunch (and cake, naturally)

Join us for breakfast, settle in for a leisurely lunch or simply stop by for freshly made coffee and a slice of something tempting.

Whether you’re meeting friends, taking a break from exploring Poundbury or just don’t feel like cooking, you’ll find a warm welcome and something delicious waiting for you.

Come hungry. Stay a while. Leave happy.

A little something to take home

Our deli shelves feature an Olive Bar as well as a selection of our other favourites. Pick up something delicious for supper, discover a new ingredient or find a thoughtful gift for the food lover in your life.
