First off, the best Milkshake I've had in years!! Couldn't decide between banana or strawberry so they made me a mixed one ... spot on. Food was really good, coffee was great (and hot!) and the service was warm and inviting. And to top it off they support 2 local charities .... what more do you want! Go support your local independents, we'll be back for sure. Thanks for a lovely lunch :)

Lovely local cafe serving delicious coffee, cakes and meals. Has a secret garden at the back which is well worth discovering. Such kind, helpful and considerate staff - nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend you seek out this little Portland Road oasis.

Absolutely wonderful service by incredibly nice people and the banana bread is heavenly. I definitely recommend this little corner for a cosy tea.

I have really mixed feelings about Tea Leaf. I have been to Tea Leaf around 4/5 times over the past few months and have mainly visited for lunch. I am a big supporter of local and independent businesses and am even very happy to even pay a premium.However, what I have found is that the quality of the food has significantly decreased over a short period of time. On my first visit I had a fantastic chicken & avocado sandwich on freshly baked bread that was accompanied by a side salad.On my second visit this became just the sandwich without any sides, something I can understand to potentially keep costs lower or reduce waste.On my most recent visit yesterday there was the biggest step down. I had a cheese and chorizo toasted sandwich, this toasted sandwich came in sliced, shop bought bread. Unfortunately, I cannot justify going to a cafe and spending ~£5 on a sandwich that looked like a meal deal.I want to support this business and use a very local cafe to me (I live in the neighbourhood), however I cannot continue to waste my money on uninspiring and poorly thought out food.

Amazing customer service, local independent business, Daniel is the kindest person in the world. Linda's soup is wonderful and Sebastian's lasagna too. The garden is beautiful and inviting, I highly recommend it.

Tea Leaf is a little gem cafe at Portland Road that not only serve good coffee but also has a enchanting garden in the back yard. I feel welcomed and drawn to come back to sit in the beautiful garden so tranquil and rustic .

Wonderful cafe in Hove. Very extensive menu choices. Able to create your sandwiches or breakfast. Excellent food, especially the sausage sandwich. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice atmosphere to chat and have a bite to eat. Love the Star Wars homage. Great place will going back and is highly recommended. ?

The Tea Leaf is great. Have always loved the food and Katie the owner is very friendly and flexible when it comes to having the food made just as you want it. My personal favourite is the falafel wrap.
