• An oasis of healthy vegetarian food and coffee

The Goat Herder is a beautifully designed espresso bar in District VII, with friendly people and a cool atmosphere. Owned and managed by an English couple - one of which is a vegetarian - they have many veggie options, including: - Delicious daily soups freshly made each day (with lots of Thai and Indian flavours). - A selection of toasted wraps, including: a) brie, walnut and apple, b) homemade hummus, grated carrot, black olives and cucumber, c) roasted mediterranean vegetables with sundried tomatoes and feta. All wraps have homemade pesto and ruccola inside. - Salads with homemade dressings - Bircher muesli and fresh fruit - Homemade cakes and cookies They have a selection of gluten-free cakes each week too! The staff all have a full understanding of vegetarianism and veganism. Food can be customised for vegans (wraps made without pesto/feta etc). Without any customisation, their vegan options include: - Vegetable dippers (homemade hummus with carrot and celery dippers) - Salads - Cold soups if they're available (gazpacho or pea and mint) - Fruit salad In addition to the food, speciality single origin coffee is a big hit - some of the best in Budapest! They use farm fresh milk, plus have soya milk and lactose free milk. The owners really care about quality and ethics. All eggs are organic (bio) and their milk, butter and yoghurt is from a local farm. Their take away packaging is made from either vegetable starch (compostable and biodegradable) or from recycled paper / sustainable forests. Some customers bring in plastic containers for their take aways, which is really good. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough!
