My favourite cafe!!

this is probably the best vegan cafe i've been to, going with friends we managed to try most of the menu (i believe it changes seasonally) and everything i've had is delicious. my personal favourite was the kimchi soondubu jjigae (the stew pictured). very reasonable prices especially for the area, and the black sesame latte is the best coffee i've ever had!! the dessert counter always has such a lovely array and always exceptional, i wish i could try it all, everything always looks incredible😄they are also very accommodating to a gluten free diet

Pros: lovely staff, great selection, affordable

Yummy

Cafe Vegu is a lovely relaxing cafe that serves tasty Korean, vegan only food. I don't like spicy food and have plenty of options.

Pros: The sesame cream latte is devine, Range of small bites and larger options, Clearly labelled menu

Cons: Popular, so busy, Can feel cramped when busy

Wonderful cafe with tasty Korean-inspired bakes

The staff were very friendly and it was nice to try something a little different from what most cafes have to offer (as well as a classic cup of coffee)! We had a red bean bun and an earl grey scone with yuja curd & cream, they were both lovely. It was a great place to stop in Lewes before an afternoon walk.

Pros: Friendly staff, Unique baked goods

10/10!

Had a wonderful lunch here, the menu is has so many great options and there’s baked things by the till too. Drink options look interesting too, all your usual cafe things but nice iced teas and smoothies/juices too. Couldn’t fault anything we ate, the staff and cafe itself are lovely too. Highly highly reccomend, a very unique cafe that you’d be sorry to miss.

Pros: Amazing food , Quick service , Welcoming and calm atmosphere

Yummy brunch and snacks!

Everything here is vegan! I had the "Korean army" beans on toast, it was just the right amount of spicy and very tasty!

So yummy!

I ordered the Bulgogi (marinated tofu, veg and rice). Tbh I was a bit put off by the seaweed on top but when I tasted it, Wow! So yummy. I'm glad I didn't judge a book by its cover. We were four adults and two small kids and everyone was happy. They had a high chair and baby change for my 2 year old. My 5 year old enjoyed baked beans on toast (made without the hot spice included in the menu option) and a strawberry milkshake. All vegan. Definitely going back again.

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly service , Toilets

Cons: Toilet is down stairs, not accessible to all

Winner Winner Red Bean Dinner….(well brunch)

Popped in here for brunch. Really tasty food, I had the army style beans on toast with kimchi and vegan bacon and a red bean bao bun that I shared with the other half whilst purloining half of her banana bread. Coffee was delicious too. Will definitely come back when in the area. That might even be for a late lunch later on today after a long walk!!😹

Pros: Tasty food, Friendly staff, Clean and fresh surroundings

Lovely, authentic and tasty

Delighted to have stumbled upon this superb little place with its interesting and creative menu, all lovingly prepared with care. It’s not everyday you get to eat Korean vegan treats in the U.K.! Staff are friendly and helpful and obviously give a damn. Wish I lived closer so I could sample more of what’s on offer.

Pros: Delicious and authentic , Exciting and exotic , Cosy atmosphere and friendly owners

Delicious completely vegan food

I got the food to takeaway then drove 20 mins home and the kimchi tofu and rice was still warm and absolutely delicious, warming up the red bean bun as recommended and that was delicious too and finally the cookie (which I ate before I remembered to take a photo of) and the babka were so yummy!
I'm definitely going to do my best to get back there to try the garlic cream cheese bread!

Pros: Fully vegan, Lots of options despite not being fully open yet
