"Establishment"   My Rating

	Review: Great place, I always go here whenever in Sheffield. Right next to the Cathedral tram stop, you can't miss it. It's got a bit of a religious feeling to it with the large windows and high ceilings (I think the building might even have had something to do with the Cathedral in the past). Great for snacks (burritos, pastries and cakes) but the best option is to have a main course or a bit of all main courses with the salad for £6.95. Portions are big and worth the money. Everything is on display and you just ask for what you like the look of. They also serve organic beers and wines and it's a good venue for large parties especially in the early evenings. It does get very busy at lunchtimes and late afternoons.   Pros: value * choice * Cons: no late nights * *

	Review: Lovely cafe with a nice atmosphere. Lots of choice for vegans though does become expensive when you add a salad to your meal. The salad is delicious though!   Pros: Good food * Big choice for vegans * Centrally located Cons: Not very cheap * *

	Review: Ate here for the first time last week. There were 5 of us, 3 vegans, 1 carnivore and 1 sugar and gluten intolerant - blimey! But we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Plenty of choice and big portions. Will definitly come again. (Sheffield's not a bad place to visit either!). We also found the staff helpful and friendly. They certainly knew what was in each dish. Although, we did have to clear the table before we could sit down. This place is well worth the visit if you're in town.   Pros: great choice * easy to find * yummy food Cons: no tables cleared at busy times * *

"Yummy Cakes"   My Rating
1 BetaPup	Posted on: Tuesday, May 06, 2008
	Review: Best Cakes in town, espcially the Lemon Maderia cake with a nice pot of Elderflower tea is just a great treat after work. Food generous and good daily variety. Downside, staff can be a bit vague (when quizzed about ingredients, but will normally attempt to find out after a bit of 'Kevin and Perryism' and dismissive...even by customers who aren't rude. But who cares as the interaction is brief as counter based service and its not all the staff only some of them, so different to anywhere else. Shame it doesn't open a little later as a business traveller I would really like this place to open until 21:00 in the hope to get a decent hot meal after 19:00 as the food goes so quick and Sheffield really doesn't cater for the visting Veggie other than here. I love the relaxed setting and quick service.   Pros: Variety of Food * Good Value * Cakes Cons: Staff knowledge * Staff Attitude *

"great food, good atmosphere, excellent location"   My Rating
2 radio maverick	Posted on: Sunday, April 06, 2008
	Review: The Blue Moon is a strange one. on the one hand the food is generally really tasty, filling vegan food, and if you select wisely and have a serving of each of the salads it doesnt work out bad value and the vegan chocolate cakes and banana cakes are just amazing. on the other hand it can be pretty expensive - a bowl of soup, slice of cake and a bottled juice will set you back about £7, which is a bit steep for me to afford regularly. also as pointed out by another reviewer, despite advertising that they are open til 8pm you will be hard pressed to get anything at all to eat after 7. the restaurant does get very busy at lunch aswell, but the atmosphere is pretty good on a normal day. the staff...the staff do seem to have an attitude problem, are not very helpful and rarely smile. woe-betide you if you try to crack a joke with one of them! also, the toilets downstairs get pretty grotty and the water pressure is intense-stand well back once youve opened a tap! all in all though, the foods good, nice atmospehere, excellent location and I would recommend the place.   Pros: location * chocolate cake * banana cake Cons: surly staff * toilets *

"As always..."   My Rating

	Review: ...the Blue Moon remains a byword for great food but surly, rude service. Why this should be I don't know, but it has been this way ever since they moved into their new premises a few years ago. Counter staff come and go but each new intake seems to be just as unfriendly as the last.   Pros: delicious food * great coffee * lovely building Cons: breathtaking rudeness * pricey *

	Review: I ate dinner at this cafe once recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. No probs getting tasty vegan food, no probs with the service. If I remember correctly I believe that I ordered a second bowl of soup I enjoyed the 1st one so much. Located bang in the centre of Sheffield beside Sheffield Cathedral and close to Fargate. Nice relaxed atmo.   Pros: Tasy food * * Cons: None * *

"Avoid Saturday evening like the plague!"   My Rating
GUEST	Posted on: Monday, April 10, 2006
	Review: I recently visited twice in the same day, once for a late lunch and again to meet friends in the evening. The cafe is guilty of extreme complacency; the food was very "old skool"; pie and some salad. I can make a plate of salad myself, thanks! It was also cramped and uncomfortable. The staff were vague and in fact were downright surly by the evening. There was also hardly any food left by 7pm; why advertise that you are open until 8pm if you are not prepared to offer a full menu? If you want coffee and cake mid-afternoon though and don't mind sitting on a folding chair, not bad!   Pros: some vegan fare * coffee in a nice cup * Cons: boring worthy food * surly staff * no choice in the evening
