About 57 Cafe Bar Restaurant

A lively Pinewood institution serving everything from daytime brunch staples to hearty Mediterranean plates. Regulars pack out the tables for prompt catch-ups over garlic prawns, lamb salads, and bowls of comforting pasta.

Up front, glass display cabinets showcase an extensive lineup of fresh cakes, tarts, and takeaway sweets to grab alongside smooth, carefully pulled coffees.

  • Private Courtyard Area: A dedicated rear dining zone set away from the main floor provides a calmer, comfortable space for multi-generational gatherings and milestone family events.
  • Cabinet Dessert Display: Prominent counter display cases feature a wide variety of visual sweets, including apple crumble tarts, flourless chocolate cake, and takeaway slices.
