Great drinks

Nice smoothies and juices that not only taste good, but also look very nice. We tried also the ginger and turmeric shots, which were nice but I think they added some water into them, as they weren’t as strong as they should be. Food was ok, nothing bad but also not amazing. Could have been more flavorful!

Cons: Could have been more flavorful, Menu not that interesting

Raw berry cheesecake - yum

Enjoyed a matcha latté and a raw berry cheesecake in Feb 2018. Would like to return to explore more of the menu :)

Never, ever again

A step drop in food and service quality since the new management took over. They stripped the menu from anything vaguely healthy and tasty and is now consisting in a collection of bland burgers and sandwiches. The waitstaff was slow, distracted and unprepared to answer basic questions regarding ingredients. Never, ever again!

Cozy and great menu

The banana cake with coconut whipped cream was amazing!
Lost one star because the coffee (hazelnut latte) was very average...watery, bit bitter, no choice of sugar. A bit disappointed.
But I recommend the food and the service

Legendary burger!

I walked a long way to try the Redemption Burger - “Shiitake mushroom, hemp seeds, quinoa, roasted chestnuts and toasted walnuts in a warm charcoal brioche with caramelised red onion marmalade, kimchi super slaw, avocado and rosemary roasted potatoes”. I love food that falls apart as you eat it - you can’t rush your food! I had to pay extra for the avocado but the waiter was right - it did make the burger more special. There’s no alcohol here so it was great to taste the alchemy in a glass of something sparkling which was so much like alcohol, I checked the menu again to make sure it said “100% alcohol free”. The banoffee pie was chewy and delicious, much better than I remember the dairy version to be. Bill for one person though, £40...it’s the reason I’ve knocked a star off, it’s good but it’s not that good.

Pros: 100% vegan, Unusual alcohol-free choices, Cute ambience, twinkly lights

Cons: Expensive for what you get, Hardly any main course choices

Lovely but pricey

The food was quite good and felt really healthy. It made you feel good afterwards. Staff was friendly and helpful. It was all gluten free aswell which was great. The main con is that it’s quite expensive. I paid over £20 for a creamy mushroom toast and a smoothie, which I felt to a bit too much.
We also had to pay 65p to get a couple chopped up carrots to feed our dog we brought with us.

Would recommend for healthy eating that makes you feel good but if you’re looking for a cheaper place this is not where to go. I also felt the taste didn’t fully live up to the price.

Pros: All vegan , Gluten- and refined sugar free, Healthy

Cons: Too expensive

Redemption

I had a very expensive bland kale ceasar salad they neglected to add all stated ingredients to. The employees offered a free dessert to make up for this, but I’m trying to limit my sugar so this was not an option. Would have been nice if they gave us a credit for part of our order. I’m not inclined to go back even though I live nearby.

Appalling food at exorbitant prices

This place is a total rip-off with overpriced, ill-prepared food and totally inept-to-rude service. We (two vegans) took our cousin, a non-vegan here for a festive meal. Unfortunately, the meal served to us no doubt reinforced to her the view of non-vegans that what we eat as vegans is disgusting. This food was truly disgusting in every way.
The meal was absolutely appalling - below are several reasons.
First of all the roasted roots and kale salad at £14.50 was a joke – there was a handful of low quality kale and no more than a serving spoon of butternut squash and beets. That salad must’ve cost less than £2.00 to produce. t was not appetising in any way. It also was just one of the biggest rip-offs- I can’t even imagine in London how you can get away with serving something like this.
Seecondly, the so-called burger - which was a sloppy, mealy mush of ingredients in a ludicrous presentation and size. As a former professional chef, now a vegan, I cannot understand how the chef could possibly think that this was something to serve another human being. It was not It was not even made properly – there was a walnut shell in mine. What are they thinking serving things like this? What really upsets me is that I have lost a large sum of money for me on a meal which was revolting and embarrassing.
I’ve had all sorts of meals in my life, some of them great, some of them forgettable – but this stands out as the worst ever. I really cannot emphasise how utterly disappointed I am by this restaurant.
Equally you could also have your wait staff learn a bit more about how to properly interface with customers. I am not impressed at all and I urge everyone to stop and consider before patronising this place.

Pros: absolutely NONE, this deserves NO STARS

Cons: Everytbing- price, food, wait staff

Poor service and okay food

A wonderful location and small, cute restaurant. Our food was good, but it wasn’t what we expected due to the high prices. The service was also quite bad, no one even asked for a second drink when our glasses were empty for 30 minutes...
All in all quite overrated, sorry!

Pros: Very good non-alcoholic drinks!, Desserts are delicious

Cons: Very little main options, Poor service , Expensive

Very tasty!!

We each had the jack fruit bbq sandwich and the mushroom burger and the food was fantastic. They served it with fresh slaw that was not sweet, but creamy and very tasty baked fries. We were all very happy with our meals and the wait staff was friendly and attentive.

Pros: Friendly wait staff, Very tasty food, Generous servings

Cons: It was busy, but that’s not a bad thing for them, Pricey but worth it

Delicious little restaurant

I went here a few years ago, when I didn’t know about this app and was just starting to transfer to a plant based diet. I loved the food and so did my friend who is far from being vegan!

Brilliant Vegan Food

I took my mum here for her birthday. All 6 people at the meal loved it. They even made her a special vegan cake (for £35) that was sensational. Great food. Amazing walk from the station. Highly recommended for a date or any occasion!

Pros: Vegan, Location is amazing

My favorite cafe in London

I looove this cafe. The coffee and the food is really tasty (I love their salads, their pastries is very good and their smoothies and treats are awesome)
The many is creative and diverse; and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
I also love the atmosphere; the decor is beautiful, and it’s so refreshing just looking out the window front and watching the people pass by, with their yoga bags, strollers,... so relaxing.
The prices are fair in my opinion (it’s Notting Hill after all, don’t expect a super bargain here) and I find the portion sizes normal

Pros: So many yummy options, Perfect for brunch, Beautiful atmosphere

Cons: it might take a bit until you get served

good without being great

friendly place with good vibe. The tacos were very nice but for 14 quid should have been a bigger portion. I wasn't full at all. The Banofee pie conversely was stodgy and heavy. I felt a bit sick afterwards.
I didn't have a drink so can't comment.
Still, the other main courses looked good and were definitely bigger than mine. So I may well go back and try again.

Pros: varied menu which all looked quite good

Cons: pricey in general, stodgy Banofee pie

No redemption for me...

Last vegan restaurant I visited during my week long trip, and this was definitely the best. I had the Californication , a sweet potato with mushrooms, kale and spinach, and it was awesome. As drink I had the 'salvation', that was just the best drink I ever had. I will dearly miss this place back home!
