Rachel Finnie
Owner & Kitchen
Rachel runs the kitchen — pies, quiches and the day's specials, cooked from scratch and sent out piping hot.
Who We Are
Our Story
A café & bistro on Marshfield's high street, run by Rachel and Sally — village shopkeepers for many years, now feeding the village too.

Rooted in the village
The Olive Tree stands on a site we know well. Our old shop traded here for years, until a fire destroyed the building — and the business with it. We moved across the road, where our other shop, Country Stores, still trades today.
When the chance came to bring the old site back to life, we took it. After a big renovation, The Olive Tree opened its doors: a lovely place for the people of Marshfield to eat and dine. Every recipe is cooked with love from fresh ingredients, and served piping hot.
After so many years keeping shop here, we know most of the faces that come through the door — and the room, the garden and the food are bringing plenty of new ones from further afield. The Olive Tree is also available to hire for private functions — just ask.
Meet the Team
The people behind the counter
Sally looks after the room; Rachel and Megan are busy in the kitchen, with a hand from the rest of the team.
Sally Flint
Owner & Front of House
Sally keeps the room running and the welcome warm. After years behind the counter in the village, she knows plenty of orders before they're said out loud.
Megan Osborne
Chef
Megan works alongside Rachel, and is the reason the counter is never short of cakes and shortbread.
