Tasty home made food

The menu was quite varied. Jacket potatoes as well as Indian dishes.
The chai latte can’t be made vegan I was told but I had a good cup of tea with oat milk.
I enjoyed the home cooked Indian Platter but forgot to ask what was in the Indian Sandwich so it may not have been vegan.

Pros: Home cooked, In city centre, Good service

Cons: Not clear what was and wasn’t vegan

Cozy vegetarian cafe in the heart of Derby

The pepper and sweet potato soup was excellent it's a shame they dont have more vegan options.

Pros: Very affordable, Freshly made, Tasty

Cons: Few vegan options

Wonderful Vegetarian and Vegan cafe in Derby city centre!

Artcore is a lovely cafe that serves wonderful freshly made vegetarian dishes (with many vegan adaptions if you ask too). The vegan samosas are gorgeous, as are the homemade curry meals, Jacket potatoes and soups, plus lots of other delights. The staff are really friendly and are happy to make adjustments for us vegans (for instance, their lovely coleslaw is mixed on site and they will use vegan mayo if requested). There is also a fabulous handmade gift shop to browse there too. This is my regular go-to lunch stop off, and it's always a pleasure to visit!
