Pleasant small cafe

Limited vegan selection (much less than earlier reviews indicate) but we enjoyed the dhal. One vegan cake (brownie) available. A shame they don’t indicate vegan (or vegetarian) options on their menu.

Bookshop cafe with vegan options

Nice little cafe with friendly staff which always has some vegan options such as bean chilli, soup, roast veg & humous sandwich. They also had vegan cheese, spread & mayo and were happy to adapt anything on the menu to be vegan (i.e. pizzas, toasted sandwiches). We had the special which was a cheese & kimchi toasted sandwich (which they made vegan), which was rather unusual and very tasty.

Pros: Friendly staff, Happy to adapt menu, Nice decor and surroundings

Cons: Only a few options

Great little cafe with plenty of vegan options on their menu

The menu has a vegan sandwich, pizza and curry alternative. There was also a selection of vegan cakes and plant based alternative milks to choose from.

Lovely Cafe

Vegan cheese options for pizza, toasties etc. We have a picky mini vegan and they made a vegan cheese toastie for her & we had chickpea sandwiches which were lovely and fresh. Friendly and clean. Great find!

Coffee & cake

Cafe is at the rear of a bookshop & has a separate vegan savoury menu on a whiteboard. We arrived mid afternoon, and fancied coffee and cake. We had a choice of oat or soya milk for our latte. The welsh cakes were vegan & delish ( so I bought 2 more to bring home) there was also chocolate cake (vegan) & salted pretzel cake ( vegan & yummy)

Pros: Friendly & knowledgable staff, Good wifi, Nice comfy sofa

Yes!!!!

Lots of different vegan options, we have the Mexican tomato soup (from the dirty vegan book) and a Dahl with rice (rice was swapped from a naan and yoghurt to make it vegan) they also had a vegan chocolate cake and flapjack option, all clearly labelled. A cute little cafe and looks very popular, so worth a visit though!

Great lunch cafe

It is a lovely place, one of the few in the area with labelled vegan options. I had the hummus sandwich and it was delicious. Will be going there again soon

Pros: Gluten-free vegan options

Cons: Can be a bit busy on Saturdays

Clearly labelled vegan options- I hope they add more!

We went for breakfast (posh porridge!) and lunch after a walk to Table Top mountain. Vegan pizza and soups. There was vegan welsh cakes and chocolate cake too x

Good vegan range

Bookish is a lovely café in the rear basement of a bookshop.

Vegan options are clearly labelled and grouped together in a blackboard to the right of the kitchen. There are plenty of savoury options, a few of which can be made gluten-free.

There are also several vegan cakes, sadly none of which were gluten free.

They also do lovely loose-leaf tea, and offer soya milk.

Pros: Lovely setting, Lots of vegan options, Excellent cake

Cons: Limited gluten-free range (but there are some)
