Excellent

I’d say the owner or chef may be vegan, so many awesome vegan options! We had one of the vegan specials, lentil soup and a dirty fries which was smothered in gravy, vegan cheese, haggis and caramelised onion chutney!!! They also have vegan Mac and cheese, vegan scones and a vegan cake!
Coffee was great and they support local artists too!

Pros: Felt very clean and safe, Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff

Loads of tasty vegan options

I was very happy to stumble upon this cafe and find that it had lots of vegan options. I was able to try some ‘haggis’ for the first time, which is something I wasn’t expecting now that I’m vegan. Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Good food, Nice outdoor seating, Lots of vegan options

Cons: A bit expensive

Vegan options in busy cafe

It's good to see vegan options on the menu, most are your average type of food (soup, burgers, wraps). They make their own vegan mayo so the coleslaw with the burger was vegan. Vegan cake also available. Went on a Wed lunch when apparently there's a weekly group of elderly women come for lunch - best to book a table. Seems very popular place in general so book in advance if you can. Seemed a little understaffed when I visited.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Average food, Can get busy

They have a full vegan menu since Jan 2019. The group of women on a Wednesday is the cafes contribution to the community by hosting a lunch club weekly

Super overpriced

A wrap here was £5, although tasty it was basic and overpriced. However it was good that they had so many options.

Pros: Full vegan menu

Cons: Expensive

There are no wraps on the menu for £5 (unless takeaway). They are priced at £6.95 and with it you get a HUGE salad, handmade vegan slaw and a freshly made to order filled tortilla wrap. This is not subways....you pay for decent local ingredients and care and attention. Very well priced in comparison to eateries nearby x

Always plenty choice on regular menu. Occasionally the special is vegan too.

Pros: You can buy vegan mayo to take away!

A completely separate vegan menu was introduced in January 2019. Well worth popping back x

Lovely Cafe

They have lots of vegan options. Their gluten free bread contains egg although the chef asked us where we got our vegan gluten free bread so it is possible they will change it. The chef is extremely helpful, he came out and discussed what we could eat. It turned out the only gluten free vegan option available was their soup, a garden salad, coleslaw and some fries. Luckily all of these things were delicious (especially the soup although this does change daily). He even brought us a pot of home made sriracha (spicy) style sauce on the house. After the meal he told us that if we called before coming they would be able to prepare something better, perhaps pop into the nearby coop and buy some gluten free vegan bread, which would open up a whole lot of options to gluten free vegans.
