Lovely place

I got a coffee and the red velvet cake. Both delicious. I will definitely order more for take away and try it out. Also will come back!

Delicious vegan pastry!

I came for the pistachio cruffin but they were sold out (it was near closing time so my bad). Instead I bought their blueberry danish and a spinach and 'feta' pastry they were just trying out. Both were very good! The texture and taste of the dough is amazing and very satisfying! Next time I will definitely visit sooner and try some more of their pastries! Very friendly service as well :)

Pros: Amazing pastries, Friendly service, Cosy place

Ummm best sweets

Love it here 😍 For me, it's more a Café than a bakery, but what's important is that they offer such delicous sweets! They have the famous pistachio cruffin and other delicous treats. Also drinks like a chai with oat milk. Very friendly staff.

Pistachio review

We had breakfast here with 3 non-vegans and everyone agreed that although pricey totally worth it! I had the pistachio croissant and cruffin. Very delicious, very filling. Would go back for more!

Pros: Quality, Taste

Cons: Waiting time, Price

3.5 stars: nice place, but pricey and mediocre food

This place is quite small but nice and has friendly staff. There’s also a toilet.

They offer a selection of puff pastries, buns and pies. They are very expensive though. The items I tried were only decent, so they didn’t justify the high price. Also, I’m used to great vegan bakeries in Amsterdam and Utrecht, so I expected better.

Cosy cafe with vegan bakery

Loved the mint tee, coffee was a slightly watery Americano. I prefer a bit stronger coffee. We shared a wonderful carrot cake. The edge was a bit hard, but the cream and taste were lovely.

Drinks > food

I’ve been eyeing Crave on social media since they opened and finally visited today. The interior is a bit too “white” for my taste and the tables are a bit inconvenient for inside use, but the vibe is there nonetheless. When I saw the pastries I got a bit disappointed by their size, but there were many to choose from by 12 pm which was nice. I went for the tiramisu danish because the other ones felt a bit too simple for their price and I just couldn’t possibly go for cake at a mainly pastry-focused place. I paid €11,75 for the danish and an iced matcha latte with strawberry purée (seasonal). The drink was FANTASTIC. The matcha color was bright and the only sweetness was coming from the strawberries which was amazing and not bitter at all. The danish was easy and crispy ( I think alcohol=free), just not exactly exceeding expectations like I hoped it would. No wow-factor. The size (and therefore the price) really bugs me. Still have to give it four stars though as it is a fully vegan place with amazing drinks and a friendly woman behind the counter.

Lastig kiezen uit een vitrine vol met lekkere croissants, cruffins, cinnamon rolls en cakes. Ook genoeg keus in koffies of andere drankjes.

Amazing chocolat croissant

So happy to have here breakfast today. The kimcheez roll was great.
The pistachio filling of the cuffing little to sweet and creamy for my taste.
A simple croissant was 11 of 10!

Your typical minimalist, modern cafe

The baked goods were tasty and very carefully crafted and the coffee was your bog standard brew. Due to the higher price I've paid I would expect to be wow'ed but I was not unfortunately. Still a good choice but I was left uninspired and wanted something more, something to break the mould.

Craving More Flavoring

The pain au chocolat was flaky, but not very flavorful. However, there was an array of baked goods, and it was a relaxing space.

Pros: all vegan, ambience

Heaven

Best pastry I've ever had in my life. The flakiness (layers upon layers upon layers) is to die for. The pastries also have tender and flavorful insides.

Besides that, wonderful and friendly staff, open and chill atmosphere. Heaven on earth if you ask me.

Pros: Incredible pastry, Warm staff, Relaxed and tranquil atmosphere

So happy to have a vegan bakery in town. I couldn't choose which pastry I wanted to have! I had the pistachio cruffin and an iced latte with oat milk, it was delicious.

Plant based bakery in the ❤️ of the city

So happy to have this vegan bakery nearby. Cozy place and friendly staff.
There are some very good options to satisfy those who feel like having a coffee with a sweet treat. I tried the pistachio cruffin and the pain au chocolat - both tasty and crunchy. As savoury pastry they had 2 flavours of twist: pesto or rosemary.
They also sell of the whole cakes, just need to order 2 or 3 days in advance.

Pros: Fresh and delicious pastries , Perfect location , All vegan

Cons: I missed some more savoury options

Delicious baked goods, and great coffee located in the heart of the city but in a quiet side street so a nice peaceful way to start your day. Staff were super friendly and helpful.

Nice place

It's nice to see a vegan pastry in Rotterdam but to be honest the pastries are not super tasty. They are 'ok', after trying margo's in Amsterdam, the one in Paris in rue the Voltare and the one in Malmö, 'bageri leve' , this one seems less tasty compare to them.

Pros: Coffee, Vegan pastries , Location

Cons: It's not super tasty

Great start!

Really impressed with the current selection they have. Their croissant is a stand out pastry. Also loving the pistachio cruffin and danishes. Would love to see some more savoury pastries on the menu, the rosemary twist was a tease for a wider savoury range.

Pros: Pastry quality , Friendly service , Cozy interior

Cons: The only thing, cruffins could be crispier ♥️

Good times

Very nice to have this new vegan option in the area! In Rotterdam vegan places are opening up and closing during recent years. Hope this place is here to stay! Visited with my wife and 5yr old son, and we loved the cruffin and chocolate roll we had and I had a good coffee. Second visit i tried the Carrot cake. The sweet topping was a bit to much for me, but for the rest is was great. Will be back here as soon as I can!

Pros: 100% vegan, also to go, nice people

Cons: limited places inside
