Yummy and perfect after climbing a mountain - Edit
Loved this place. Very friendly staff, good choice of vegan food, three mains for example. We had the vegan burger and the portobello mushroom ciabatta Both were great. Great place and highly recommended.

Lovely café with plenty of vegan options - Edit
We called into the Escape Route Café for a spot of lunch after a quick romp up nearby Ben Vrackie. It's a nice spot close to the centre of Pitlochry, with plenty of seating both indoors and out. The sun was shining so we grabbed a seat outside. We were soon welcomed by a friendly waitress who talked us through the vegan options. There was plenty to choose from, including a tasty sweet chilli ch*cken ciabatta which I very much enjoyed. There's also a burger, a portobello mushroom ciabatta and a BBQ chickpea sandwich. The soup of the day is also vegan. I believe they also have vegan breakfast options earlier in the day. Not the cheapest but worth it.

Lovely, cosy cafe - Edit
Enjoyed breakfast at the Escape route cafe. There is the option to have a full vegan breakfast or a filled roll. I chose to have a roll with potato scone and veggie sausages which were homemade and really lovely. Filled with veg rather than meat replacement sausages. I had breakfast tea with alpro barista oat milk and would have been tempted to get the vegan raspberry slice out of the cake cabinet if it hadn't been so early.

Tasty cycle themed cafe - Edit
Options - cauliflower ‘scampi’ and chips, ciabatta with chips and salad, vegan burger. Not everything was available so we had a mixture of soup, hummus and roast veg sandwich/toastie and chips. All tasty and fresh. We sat outside initially which is covered and quieter but came inside as the wasps showed too much interest for my liking. Spacious, friendly, dogs welcome. At least one vegan sweet offering on display too.

🌱 PLANTBASED BREAKFAST
💰: £10.95
💭: This included hash brown, potato scone, beans, two sausages, two cooked tomatoes, brown toast and mixed fried veg (red & yellow pepper with courgette). Vegan sausage were veggie type but best I've ever had and I'm never keen on veg sausage.
🤷🏽♀️: Order again? Yes
📝: Dog-friendly and got an oat milk latte - very nice coffee!
Pros: Dog-friendly, Plantbased milks available

Lovely cafe with a wood burning stove and ebike battery chargers. Had a good range of vegan options, including sandwiches, burgers, pasta and soups. No vegan cakes whilst we were there. Staff seem knowledgeable about veganism.

Fab cafe with outdoor seating area and great vegan options. - Edit
Nice atmosphere and great vegan options, such as fake chicken burrito, vegan burger with vegan applewood cheese and vegetable soup. There are also a nice range of biscuits and cakes.
Read moreService is mega quick, the only downside is there isn’t a separate children’s menu, resorting to chips, though they did say they would make a sandwich.
Really enjoyed the lunch and will be back :-)
Pros: Several vegan options, Tasty food and drinks, Nice outdoor seating area
Cons: No separate children’s menu

No vegan options as of 8/8/20 - Edit
Asked about vegan options and they said that they were not doing any vegan options at the moment. They said they could do a vegan sausage sandwhich but couldn't guarentee the bread didn't have milk in it, so we declined.
Read moreCovid-19 may have something to do with it, but it is a shame that their vegan all day breakfast has dropped off the bottom of the menu.

Vegan Breakfast - Edit
Stopped here enroute to Inverness. Was impressed with the options albeit limited, staff were very friendly when inquiring about vegan options. Would say a tad too much oil on the fried veg but overall a great breakfast would visit again if passing through.
