Eden Nursery and Coffee Shop

A few months ago Crawler Margaret Zoetmulder discovered a coffee shop in PE that we had yet to visit....a true rarity!  By the beginning of July the Crawlers were ready to take a break from our revisits, so we took Margaret's recommendation and headed to Eden Coffee Shop, 69 Erasmus Dr. in Summerstrand.  Eden's patrons must actually use the Avonmouth Crescent entrance to the shop; the signs to Eden from Erasmus are clearly marked.

Eden Nursery and Coffee Shop opened for business in October, 2013.  Owners Pat Cullen and Penny Els combined their passions for food and gardening, and the result is their little piece of paradise right here in PE!  At Eden customers can sit and enjoy sweet and savory treats, cold drinks and Masterton's coffees.  Seating is available for 30 in the beautiful garden area and under the gazebo or, if the weather's not so great, the two inside rooms, stunningly decorated by local artist Vicky Bowles, can accommodate approximately 22 people.  Either way you'll experience the peaceful, relaxed atmosphere that the shop's name evokes.  If you're pressed for time, everything on the menu is available for take-away.  Pat and Penny are also happy to open their lovely venue and cater for your next special event.  Call 083 697 2065 or 073 683 8802.  Eden's hours are Mon-Fri, 9-3.

Thursday, July 3, was a gorgeous day.  Crawlers Beth Vieira, Sylvia Mynhardt, Stella and Beryl Dawson, Margaret Zoetmulder, Colleen Le Roux, Margaret and Arthur Marshall, Fran de Beer, June Nash, Pierrette De Winne, Nicolette Hijmans sat in the gazebo for the morning's Crawl.  Pat and Penny offered an impressive selection of freshly baked cakes and quiches.....I can vouch for the baked cheesecake....it was to die for!

After the coffee and cakes were served our hostesses came out to spend some time with the Crawlers.  We all felt so much at home and welcome that the morning quickly wore into the early afternoon before everyone decided to get on with the rest of their day.  Overall, our Thursday Crawl was quite pleasant and the Crawlers agreed that Eden  is now one of our favorite coffee shop venues!
