The best vegan food in my area.

Being fairly short of vegan options in my area it's a treat to have Canteen 18 as a local all-vegan restaurant. Friendly vibe and service, dogs made to feel welcome, and the food is delicious whether you wantba healthy Buddha bowl/salad or fast food. They also do vegan nights and special events.

So good

We had the most amazing food here. It was too bad it’s not really a dinner place (anymore), but they were happy to serve us around 5 pm and we could order from the lunch menu.

Pros: Great food, Lovely staff , Nice atmosphere

Cons: Opening hours

Cosy, homely, lush!

We popped into Canteen 18 this morning for a full breakfast, pancakes, tea and a hot chocolate.

The cafe is bustling, friendly and homely.

The food was DELICIOUS and just what the Dr ordered after a night out.

Pros: Friendly staff, Incredible breakfast , Extensive menu

Cons: You can only park for an hour in the bays outside

So many options (sweet and savoury)

Very friendly staff with cosy decor. Even my non vegan partner loved the food.

We had a Southern friendly chicken burger, all day breakfast (vegan Black pudding was lovely) and two slices of cake.

Seems to be a popular spot with locals as well which is always a good sign!

Defo worth a visit whether veggie or vegan.

Vanilla chai latte was fab as well if you like something sweet!! 100%vegan as per the name.

Plenty of choice of food and a variety of drinks such as cold, hot & smoothies.
Brilliant service including making a fuss of our 9 month old son.

Lovely desserts

It’s not the most amazing vegan junk food I’ve ever had, but I ate here a few times in Swansea and always enjoyed it. The cakes were always my favourite - particularly the lemon meringue pie, which was one of my favourites before being vegan.

Monster shake and lovely chips

We came here for a very early dinner as there aren’t many vegan options on a Saturday night. When we asked what was in the vegan shake and we heard marshmallows and whipped cream, that was enough to say yea! I got the mushy peas and tofish and chips. My partner got the poutine. The chips and mushy peas and shakes were good. I liked the tofish but it wasn’t as fishy as I’ve had recently. Still nice though. There are plenty of seats inside.

Staff are very friendly

Hearty portions, friendly staff

Delicious vegan meal (Tofu fish and chips, and mushroom and 'bacon' gnocchi) with generous portions. We arrived 20 minutes before closing but staff were more than happy to accommodate. Great prices, including on the big selection of vegan wines.
Only downside is they aren't open 7 days a week, however the lovely staff were happy to recommend a whole list of places to find great vegan food in Swansea on their closed days!

Pros: Affordable, Friendly staff, Big portions

Cons: Closed Monday - Thursday

Best 'sosage' rolls

Breakfast in canteen 18 is definitely worth going for, after one breakfast I had to buy a takeaway sausage roll for later because the sausage was so good! Lovely atmosphere
