Limited choice, but great coffee :) - Edit
The vegan cake options were limited, however we did not try any as we came for coffee only.

Delicious coffee and treats - Edit
Lovely place to stop and have a coffee or a latte and a treat. They had two vegan options - a lemon berry cake and an apple ginger cake. Both were delicious. Choice of plant based milks too

Limited Choice - Edit
What we had was nice but no real choice. Apparently they get 4 loaves a day and when it’s gone, it’s gone.

Endroit super ! - Edit
Contente de pouvoir compter sur Happy Cow pour dénicher les endroits géniaux autour de moi. Belle déco, employés super sympas, musique cool et bons cappuccino avec option lait végétal. Prises disponibles et eau gratuite. J'approuve ! Je n'ai pas goûté les gâteaux, mais ils ont l'air bons !

A great option close to the castle - Edit
After a wet and windy tour of the castle we were looking for somewhere near by to warm up! All their hot drinks can be done with oat or almond milk (unfortunately for a small vegan milk charge) and they make a great flat white in a cosy environment. They also had a couple vegan food options, although we only stopped for drinks!
Read morePros: Good coffee , Cozy, Close to the castle
Cons: Vegan options extra charge, Limited food options

The vegan red velvet cake was delish and my oat chai latte was as well. Lovely service and staff and cafe has a loo as well. Wish the rose pistachio cake had been vegan!

Nice venue - Edit
Sweet venue with a good selection of vegan food. Unfortunately, when I arrived they had sold out of vegan sandwiches. However, they kindly made one up for me.
