It’s not every day that you grab breakfast at a small café and suddenly realize you’re sitting next to two of Hollywood’s biggest stars.
But that’s exactly what happened when locals in Par, a charming town on England’s south-west coast, saw Zendaya and Tom Holland casually strolling in.
On a regular Tuesday, the famous couple chose to skip Michelin-star restaurants and instead opted for a relaxed meal at the quirky Ramshackle Rosie café.
Zendaya and Tom’s Café Order: Keeping it Casual
Zendaya, known for her iconic roles in Euphoria and Dune, stuck to her American roots, ordering pancakes with maple syrup.
Tom Holland, the British actor who’s made waves as Spider-Man, decided to go for a hearty ‘Zeppelin’ fry-up—playfully named after the legendary rock band, Led Zeppelin.
Their down-to-earth vibe caught everyone by surprise.
Locals Didn’t Realize They Were in the Presence of Hollywood Royalty
The café owner, Helen Woodward, was none the wiser at first.
In fact, she initially asked the couple to move to a smaller table to make space for other customers!
It wasn’t until a fellow diner pointed out that the man was, in fact, Spider-Man that she realized who she was serving.
Despite the revelation, Woodward didn’t make a fuss, commenting later that they were “just like a regular couple” and “absolutely lovely.”
No Star Treatment Here, Just Breakfast and a Chat with Locals
Tom and Zendaya’s low-key presence extended beyond the café.
They even made a quick stop at Asda, a local supermarket, after their meal. Local resident Rob Sheldon had a brief chat with Tom, who even took a moment to pet Sheldon’s dog.
Sheldon remarked how grounded they both seemed, and how Tom compared Asda to the U.S. store Target. Despite their fame, the couple blended right in.
A Quiet Life in Richmond
This isn’t the first time Tom and Zendaya have been spotted enjoying a simple life away from Hollywood glitz.
The couple, who met on the set of Spider-Man in 2016, have been dating since 2021 and now share a home in Richmond.
Far from the red carpets and flashing cameras, Zendaya prefers walks in Richmond Park or along the Thames, while the two are often seen grabbing pizza or shopping at their local supermarket.
Richmond Locals’ Unwritten Rule: Let Them Be
In Richmond, the couple’s presence is so common that spotting their silver Porsche has become somewhat of a local game.
While fans might be tempted to ask for selfies or autographs, the community has a silent agreement to give them space.
One resident noted, “We see them around all the time, but no one bothers them for pictures. They’re polite and seem to appreciate the privacy.”
Tom, currently starring as Romeo in Romeo and Juliet in the West End, purchased their modest four-bedroom home in Richmond in 2018, just a stone’s throw away from his family.
Despite their celebrity status, it seems that they’ve found comfort in the quiet simplicity of everyday life.
What’s Next for Hollywood’s Favorite Couple?
For now, it seems Tom and Zendaya are happy balancing their high-profile careers with their peaceful life in England.
Whether it’s a quiet breakfast in Par or an afternoon stroll in Richmond, they’re proving that even the biggest stars enjoy a bit of normalcy.
