Active since Jan 2024
For the lack of so few tea gardens in Pretoria, I yet again went to the Green Olive with the hope that perhaps their service had improved since my last visit. I found that the menu options had decreased drastically (doing away with toasted sandwiches my goodness!) whilst the prices had increased significantly. Their milkshake at R45 was nothing special and I would have done better to go to the local Wimpy bar for a better tasting and more presentable one. The service was incredibly poor, so poor that I decided to not tip the waiter, only to find that a service fee had been added anyway. Upon querying this, I was told it was to cover rep fees and was instituted a while back. Rep fees???? My granddaughter also brought me a large, rusted nail that she found in the sand on the playground where all the little children were playing on the poorly maintained equipment. I have learned my lesson with the Green Olive and will most definitely not be visiting there again as everything about this experience bad.
