I freaking loved this place!! - Edit
One of the number 1 things I miss being plant based is the pastries so was so happy when I found this spot! Beautifully decorated and really lovely service. My almond crossaint was incredible. The only thing I would say is the toilets could be cleaner but everything else makes up for that.

Incredible! - Edit
This has to be one of the best places in London. The staff were incredibly patient and kind while we took a long time to decide, and they taught me the pronunciation of some of the Ukranian dishes as well. 😊
Read moreI ordered the apple and raisin crepes, and a Shushkovsky coffee for breakfast, and got a Kyiv cake to take home for later. Everything was amazing, and I highly recommend the Kyiv cake (I believe it's popular, so get there early!)
There is a large selection of sweets to choose from at the counter, as well as some merchandise available to purchase. The interior is beautifully arranged with vintage decor and furniture.
A must try! 🩷

Eclair was frozen :/ - Edit
We went for breakfast and had the Spinach Waffle and Full English - both were very good. However, what drew me here was the eclairs. Unfortunately, it was frozen and not defrosted yet.

Cute & pink but very expensive - Edit
The place and aesthetics are lovely and there are many options to choose from. That being said, the pastries weren't bad, but pretty average in taste and it was way too expensive (hence the two stars). 40 pounds for 3 small pastries, a cup of coffee and a cup of tea seems a bit much.

Pricey, but worth it! - Edit
We found this cute little spot because it's entirely gluten-free! There's a variety of sweet treats with unique flavours and amazing designs, and the hot chocolate with almond milk we tried was delicious as well. We ended up paying about 40 pounds for three drinks and three pastries, which felt a but high, but everything was great and it was nice not having to worry about cross contamination.

Authentic, Great Concept, Good Portions - Edit
Stopped by this place on Christmas Day in the early evening. Had the cabbage rolls with soy protein. They were very good and filling. They also have lots of pastries, which I didn't try - but they looked sensational. I love the pure vegan Ukrainian food concept. Looks like a great team running the place. Recommended if you are in Central London.

Wonderful Ukrainian Cafe - Edit
Lovely fully vegan spot with delicious food and incredible patisserie deserts! We had the Ukrainian Set which was full of flavour and very filling (borscht, your choice of varenyky, cabbage rolls and stewed fruit drink). We also had to try the desserts, and the traditional vegan honey cake and snickers eclair did not disappoint! The decor is also really cosy and quirky! Would 100% recommend and can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful sweet treat and great lunch - Edit
Quite amazing to step into this pretty cafe and see all the beautiful patisserie laid out. Stunning creations!
Read moreTried Ukrainian honey cake, peanut eclair and a lemon. I should probably have got them out of the fridge a little earlier, but they tasted good. And honey cake probably our favourite!
Updated 24/11/25: first time I’ve had proper lunch there - amazing! Full, delicious food feels properly home made. Beautifully served. ‘Chicken’ Kiev was crisp and delicious, and comforting mash with little tasty sauces. Has to be tried to be believed!
