Review: We were in Exeter for two days and this restaurant was a real bonus. The first time we sat inside and the next day outside and since it is across from the cathedral we enjoyed the view as we ate. The place is small but they were not that busy (September?) so we had no difficulty with seating. The later in the day you arrive, the less choice there is but as a vegan there was always lots of choice. My wife who is a vegetarian enjoyed the food as well. On the second day, I did have the chocolate cake and it was very good.
 
Pros: great location * good tasting food * accomodating staff
Cons: hours of operation * *

Review: went to the plant on a sunday afternoon. greeted with smiles all round. the staff were up to their eyeballs cooking all sorts of things! but, still spent the time to talk me through what everything was. i got chatting to them about the new ownership...the girls had always worked at plant and were the perfect candidates to take over the business. i think a few things had changed for the better.
i ended up having a chai latte and risotto layer. you must experience it! the music was very 'new worldy'. great atmosphere. i even went away with a free cake voucher for my next visit!!!

 
Pros: staff! * constant supply of fresh food * community notice wall
Cons: too much choice! * *

Review: I have been to the Plant Cafe a few times for lunch (both business and leisure) and there is always something there for vegans - including a fantastic vegan chocolate cake!! The staff are always friendly, polite, & helpful = excellent customer care! This cafe is well worth a visit! The only downside is that it is small so you may find it difficult to get a table at peak times.
 
Pros: Great Food * Vegan Chocolate Cake * Friendly staff
Cons: Small venue * *

Review: Really happy that we changed venue and went here, friendly staff,good choice of vegan food,nice freshly prepared food, crisp cold salads, warmed pitta bread with nicely served hummus, attention to detail, cost £17.90 for huge plated salad at least 4 salads on plate,hummus and pitta, vegan sos panini with good garnish,dijon mustard wild rocket,two soya lattes, big platefulls and food served at the right temp,large jugs of water to help yourself to, would go tomorrow if I lived nearer, was tiny inside and difficulty to read menu up on wall without feeling pressured to choose quickly as it is right above a table with some one eating at so made quick choices,luckily the right ones!, nie atmostphere all round, seemed all ages there, played Jazz music,that is a no no for me personally but others might love it,they do outside catering I think as well, great first impression,loved it.
 
Pros: vegan friendly * welcoming * very tasty food
Cons: badly placed menu board * jazz music * to far for me to go weekly!

Review: This is the cutest little cafe ever. The food is so so delicious and to have the vegan chocolate cake is simply heaven. The best i have ever tasted.

The staff are so friendly and the atmosphere is delightful. I just wish i lived nearer so i could visit more often.
