Friendly staff and tasty food

The staff are friendly and helpful. The vegan and vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu. If you are not getting a meal deal, and are a student you can get a student discount. The food is filling and affordable.

Pros: Clear vegetarian and vegan options, Helpful staff, Reasonable prices

Alright

Only 3 vegan options and when I went they were out of stock of one. I had the falafel wrap and it was ok

Pros: Central to Newcastle so good to pop in quickly , Approx £5 for a meal

Cons: Not many options

Ok if you're stuck

It was difficult to find somewhere open before 10am with decent vegan options. Unfortunately we discovered they were in the middle of changing their menu, so they didn't have the beetroot burger available, I didn't feel like a falafel wrap as I'd one the day before, the tofu and noodles would probably have taken long-ish to prep, so went with an Egyptian veg & bean pot.

It turned out they only had enough ingredients for one portion due to the menu change, so they split it over both of our breakfasts and gave us a wrap each. This was adequate and apart from the unfortunate timing with the menu change, I can't fault the service. I'd probably go elsewhere for lunch or dinner because there are so many other options, but for a quick breakfast it did the job. They have clear signage saying to ask about their vegan options.

Women's toilet was out of order so I had to use the men's, but it was only a single cubicle so it wasn't too much of an inconvenience.

Pros: Reasonable prices, Good service

Cons: Going through a menu change

Okay

We went here because it was the only place we could find that opened early and did vegan food. There were a few options but I got the falafel wrap. It was only okay. I would go back to try one of their noodle dishes but wouldn't recommend the wrap.

Hi Charlie, thank you for giving us a try! Our chilli tofu noodles are quite popular. It’s a shame you didn’t like the falafel? we do make it with an Egyptian recipe that uses fava beans as opposed to a lot of others that use chick peas, perhaps an acquired taste. Hope to see you again soon.
