Shame we weren’t more hungry

First time we’ve been in as previously not been open when we’ve passed. Lots of vegan breakfast choices but sadly we’d already had a big hotel breakfast. I had some scrambled tofu on toast and a hot mug of Yorkshire tea. Will definitely try again when more hungry.

Good breakfast

Tried the Planted Swamp. Looked as good as the picture on here and the taste was to the same standard. This place is going in my Whitby breakfast rotation.

Pros: Tofu scramble firm enough to stay on your fork , Good helping of spinach, Hash browns crispy without threatening teeth.

Nice, casual little cafe, cheap and cheerful!

This is a cute, relaxed spot with a few good vegan options and friendly staff. We had the vegan ‘swamp’ breakfast and thought the vegan sausages were really good. It can get busy and there is often only one cook, but if you don’t mind a bit of a wait it is nice just to sit and watch the world go by and have the odd bit of small talk with staff and other customers. We come here every visit for a brunch or light snack and always feel welcome!

Pros: Casual cafe atmosphere and friendly faces, Vegan cheeses and milks, Pet friendly!

Good choice

We found there to be few places in Whitby catering to vegans. However Cranberry Swamp was great! Very friendly service -they understand vegans. We had the mixed bean chilli with tortillas, and quinoa salad, roasted vegetables & salad with an optional extra of plant based feta(delicious) we shared some sweet potato fries.
They also had falafel salad, houmous sandwiches & all day breakfasts which included tofu scramble & vegan sausages.

Quite nice

Came on a busy morning in twixmas and they were short staffed so not everything available. But the waitress was professional about it and most of our group were able to have their first choice of sausage sandwiches. Sat on the communal table. Food very nice as was put of tea. I would have wanted soup but that isn’t available until 11:30 I think. I had avo on toast.

Alright

A decent selection of vegan options, which are all marked. However, I feel that the selection has been reduced since I last visited. I went again recently and had the planted swamp breakfast again (mostly because nothing else appealed), and I was not impressed. I found it bland. It definitely needed some more seasoning, I've made much nicer tofu scramble at home, and I definitely feel like it wasn't as good as the first time. I'm not sure if I'd be in a rush to come back

Nice food, good prices!

Nice food here.

Labelling on the menu for vegan stuff is not completely clear but the waitresses were helpful.

I had the BBQ lentil and black bean burger with chips and salad - it was amazing and the burger was homemade.

My partner had the roasted veg panini which was lovely and full of flavour!

Good option for vegans in Whitby.

Pros: Vegan burger, Lots of vegan options , Nice staff

Cons: Menu labelling for vegans was poor, Coffee wasn't very strong

Super friendly & good vegan options.

We were staring at the menu outside as the vegan options weren’t immediately obvious. The owner was setting up, heard us, and was immediately very accommodating, saying, “there’s lots of vegan, veggie, & GF options because we don’t want to leave anyone out”.

I had a pot of tea with soy milk, a full vegan breakfast (scrambled tofu, sausage, hash browns, beans, spinach, tomatoes, toast), and my partner had an oat cappuccino with a lentil burger. All delicious. Finished it off with a cake each - one chocolate & cherry, the other frangipane.

We’ll be returning before our trip is over. Super friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

Good breakfast!

I had a really nice breakfast here which was adapted from the menu to have scrambled tofu instead of eggs, there were other vegan choices although they weren't the majority

Pros: Cool art including cards to buy, Friendly hardworking staff!, Didn't smell like bacon like some places can

Cons: Bit of a search to find the vegan options

Cool cafe

Cool and very welcoming cafe with great music, we instantly loved this place straight away. We sat outside and consumed a chocolate cherry tart and chocolate mocha cake, which were absolutely divine. We also had an Americano and the most refreshing elderflower drink ever, which came with added fruit. Will definitely return again.

Pros: Great cakes and drinks, Friendly staff , Decor and vibe

Cons: Serves meat

Funky little place

I liked this funky little place. There weren’t a massive amount of vegan options, but I didn’t leave hungry. The porridge was delicious with banana and I enjoyed some avocado on toast. Nice, friendly service. Obviously a popular place, as it got busier later in the morning.

Pros: Inexpensive , Decent portion

Cons: More vegan stuff needed

Funky place, fab food

Super friendly place with funky decor and a really tasty mixed bean chilli. The chilli had a great flavour and came with salad and a bread roll - hearty food on an overcast day. The elderflower fruit cup was refreshing and there is a good selection of teas and coffees with non-diary mylk options. Vegan choc-mocha square was good and the vegetarian lemon drizzle cake really moist and delicious. A few more vegan options would be great.

Pros: Staff happy to adapt options for vegans, Friendly

Cons: Only one vegan cake option [it was a good one :)]
