Disappointing

The buckwheat pancakes were small and thin and kind of tasteless. The vegan sausages had an unpleasant aftertaste. It wasn't enough food overall for breakfast. The herbal tea selection is quite nice though. Being acknowledged by staff to get a table initially was slow.

10/10 atmosphere, food quality, creativity

A really inspiring, thoughtful and creative cafe with great quality of food, and great options. Lots of vegan options. Great concept of the name; well thought through brand, products and menu. A really great atmosphere and friendly staff. Love coming here and come here often.

Disappointing

We had nice decaff oat coffees and a lovely vegan curry. But we also ordered jacket potatoes that looked like they were reheated and they were so overcooked the middle had gone yellow and the outside was hard and quite black. I returned mine and was told that's how the oven had cooked them that morning. They brought another one which was the same.
I usually get vegan cake and a drink and these are always nice so will stick with that in future.

Pros: Nice vegan cake and drinks

Cons: Main dish was awful.

Consistently below average

It's the kind of place you hope and wish to be better than it is.
The main reason to return is purely it's location and convenience of position on the high street in Glastonbury - that and they have a lot of tables.
We have visited numerous times and each time we've been optimistic, but left disappointed. Service is super hit and miss - sometimes you can be met with a smile, but mostly it seems understaffed and slow.
Mainly visit for breakfast, but the last few times have been super disappointing - they missed beans and the sausage off one of our vegan breakfasts. We asked for some ketchup, but were told they only had the tiniest amount left (they're positioned opposite a large vegetarian supermarket).
Overall, huge huge huge potential but always a let down.

Friendly, flexible and lovely food.

We arrived unannounced as a party of 14, mixed vegan, vegetarian and a few allergies too. They accommodated us well, adapted dishes for us and we all got very good food, surprisingly quickly. I would recommend this place unreservedly.

Flavoursome vegan food

I had the celeriac flatbread and my husband the lentil burger. My flatbread was very very hard, to the point I had to snap it rather than cut it. It was very large. The toppings tasted delicious. My husband enjoyed his burger but found the soft burger combined with soft bread roll all a bit mushy, so he preferred to use my flatbread.

Pros: Tasty

Cons: Not quite there texturally

Not great....

Ignored by three members of staff when we walked in, only a few choices for vegans so we opted for the lentil burger that was bland and served with very hard roast potatoes. It was very expensive for what it was (£12!) and I was practically laughed at when I asked if they had veganaise. Paid up and ignored again on the way out. Would not recommend and won’t be back.

Cons: Expensive, Terrible service , Bland food

Great place

Excellent food service and atmosphere. You will need to book as they do close early but it is a great place to eat. We had the sticky toffee pudding and salted caramel vegan ice cream and it was so delicious.
Lovely staff and nice ethos.

Pros: 2 vegan options on menu and 2 specials. , deserts

great place!

was dog friendly which was fantastic as had taken the pups out w us, they were even provided biscuits and tub of water! plentiful choices for vegans and many other vegetarian. the place does serve meat, so take that is mind if you wished to eat at a veggie only establishment! recommend the cakes! loads on offer! did find chocolate cake a little dry but loads of other options available to try!

Pros: served swiftly, dog friendly, vegan cake! many options!

Cons: busy so seating took a while, fresher cake or increase wet ingredients

Nice!

It is a lovely place really, a few good vegan cookies , one sugar free! Also a good amount of vegan choices that change, mainly sides such as chickpea pancakes :) Everything is labeled gluten free, vegetarian and vegan so it is easy to tell! Maybe easier for some to eat veggie/vegan elsewhere in glasto but this is open later with some good, cheaper options. Would recommend for sure!

Pros: Clearly listed vegan options that change, Many gluten & sugar free, Open late

Cons: Serves mainly vegetarian/Meat/fish

Good Food, Good Service, Organic Vegan/Vegetarian Options”

Although this restaurant is not completely vegetarian. What we loved about this restaurant was the fact that everything was organic, local and ethically sourced even their meat and fish. The menu had good options for vegetarians/vegans. We ordered the quiche which was really good, a carrot and cashew loaf - which was awesome and they also made a vegetarian special for us with an ingredient called samphire a sea vegetable - something we had never tried before. Their menu changes based on what is locally available at that time. The service was very good and the place was contemporary. We also ate here for tea time snack and had a scone with clotted cream, jam and cake and coffee and tea and everything was really tasty and fresh.

Pros: Good Veg Options, Organic, Local & Ethically Sourced

Cons: Not completely vegetarian

TASTY HOT VEGAN FOOD

I stopped in here whilst out on a cold October day, the bean burger was piping hot with a veganaise dressing that complemented the burger perfectly, making a perfect warming meal

The Grandmothers garden tea was an excellent accompaniment and left me much warmer than when I came in

It was very busy but the staff were totally on top of the situation and it took no more than 5 minutes after ordering before the full order arrived, it was however school 1/2 term

Obviously very popular with the locals, with good reason

Pros: Tasty food , Friendly staff, Cleanliness

Cons: Small menu

Delicious original food

Whilst staying in Glastonbury we ate here twice. Everything was clearly marked vegan, gluten free etc. lots of choice. I had potato and fennel soup and I could really taste the fennel. The desserts were lovely too.

Pros: Several choices, Friendly staff, Spacious restaurant

fantastic food

Hundred monkeys provides a great choice of food whatever your preferences. It may be more expensive than other local places, but when you take into account the fact that pretty much everything is homemade and where possible organic, locally and ethically sourced(some things even grown on site) i think it's pretty reasonable!
The food, served here, is always finished off with delicious dressings, dips and other lovely touches.
I love the fact that they cater for most dietary requirements (gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, raw vegan etc) in a creative and exciting way. I never feel like I'm missing out when eating here.
Yes they serve meat and dairy.... But then I've seen plenty of people order meat dishes and it is a buisness after all. It also means i can eat here with non-vegan friends who are always impressed with my vegan meal and they are often tempted to go for vegan/vegetarian options the next time (two who have made a shift to a vegetarian mostly vegan diet after seeing how great the food can be!)
So all in all it may not be affordable to eat here daily but well worth the occasional treat!
would give this a 5 cow rating if I was allowed!

Pros: amazing food, good atmosphere, caters for most people

Well worth a visit

I enjoyed a lovely meal here with my husband recently and was well pleased at how delicious the food was. There were several vegan options and along with a selection of vegan cakes.

Vegan dishes were clearly labelled and the staff were really helpful and friendly.

We bought even some of the home-made spelt bread (which is made on site) to take home, an absolutely delicious treat for the day after.

Pros: good vegan options, friendly staff, organic

Cons: serves meat

Excellent but overpriced

Hundred Monkeys is situated at the top of Glastonbury High Street, and has recently expanded into the space once occupied by the greengrocer. As well as providing extra seating, this has also allowed room for their own bakery, meaning that most (if not all) of the bread served in the cafe is baked on the premises.

The range of vegetarian options is very good, and there's usually at least one vegan dish (usually more) on the menu. The food is of an excellent standard, and the veggie options clearly aren't added as a simple afterthought. All food is freshly cooked, with a focus on organic and local ingredients.

Service can be a little on the slow side, and I've often been forgotten about when sat in the courtyard area. Prices are on the high side, but the food is probably the best on offer in Glastonbury, so it's easy to forgive the fact that it's a little overpriced. Vegetarian main meals hover around the £9 mark, but it's nice to see that they're priced below their meat equivalents.

The cafe is open from around 10am, seven days a week. Closing times seem to vary. At the time of writing, the cafe is open for evening meals, but there is no clear advertising indicating on what days.

Pros: excellent food, ambience, courtyard seating

Cons: meat, price, slow service
