Wouldn’t bother if vegan

I used to love eating here. However now as a vegan I don’t really like the food at all and only go if invited there by friends or family. I’ve had all the vegan items on the menu now and the only thing I really like is the breakfast (although the last time I had that the bacon was rock hard). It’s so annoying because everyone else food looks delicious. Does the chef just not like vegans? The last time I had the burger it was served on a cob not a brioche bun and was soooo dry and they had no vegan mayo. The falafel pasta…. Pasta doesn’t belong in pasta it goes with hummus and a pita. The avo and chilli jam was awful. The chilli jam was farrr to sweet with no chilli kick to it and was freezing cold. Was like eating strawberry jam and avo on toast. And the pizza is okay but has loads of chilli sauce ok it making it sloppy. I really want to look forwards to coming here again please improve your menu!

Just nah

A few years ago, it was one of my favorite places, but for a long time the vegan and vegetarian food here is really poor quality.
The food is quite expensive and things like vegan bacon, fried to the point is crunchy and uneatable or undercooked egg should not happen. For Italian place coffee is quite bad too.
During the last visit, I also didn't have much luck with friendly staff.
The prices are too high and do not correspond to the quality of the food.

Expected better

It was a Saturday evening and the place was packed - a good sign, the food came out pretty quickly but the waitress was hopefully new as she really didn't know what she was doing. Food came out but most of it was cold, portions were stingy. I had a bruschetta starter which was only £1 less than my main and it was just a single bread slice with guacamole and salsa on top, then had a mini pizza with chips, the vegan pizza was alright but smothered in sweet chilli sauce and the tiniest portion of chips came with it. Only one vegan dessert option and it's a baked rice pudding - not for me! Also be warned the charged an extra £1 per drink when we ordered at the table instead of ordering at the bar - not had that before, there's also an 8% service charge automatically added on, they must know that tips won't come often with that kind of service!

Some positives though - atmosphere was nice, it was spacious even when busy and the decor was pleasant, just a shame about the food, service and prices.

Pros: Food came out fast, Popular

Cons: Overpriced, Poor service, Cold food - nothing exciting
