Good pancakes! - Edit
June 2023:
Read more4.5 stars really. The food was delicious and it’s a cute cozy cafe. You only get 2 pancakes per portion, which felt a bit stingy especially for the price (£12.60), but they do nearly make up for it with lots of toppings.
I really wish they’d ditch the cows’ milk and go fully vegan!!
Update Feb 2024: went again and was overall slightly less good. All nice but nothing less special

Pros: Almost all vegan, Nice food

Loved it, great menu - Edit
Great little cafe, friendly vibe, all vegan (except for that milk option) - and the menu is great. The zalmon bagel was very tasty, the filter coffee and a vanilla pastry were a delicious combo. Definitely recommend this place :)

Not vegan - Edit
They told me it was fully vegan when i entered then when i came to order they asked me if I wanted cows milk in my latte or plant milk! Should be listed as vegetarian not vegan. Really don’t like when businesses claim to be vegan but are not. There is nothing vegan about cows milk.

Perfect breakfast options when you don't want a full fry up!! - Edit
In London overnight and wanted a light breakfast, so looked for the closest vegan cafe. This place was close to my hostel in Bethnal Green and had a variety of options to choose from. The ones i was deciding between were sausage muffin, cheese toastie, salmon bagel with cream cheese, and pancakes. (It also had "heavier" options for lunch.) I had the bagel, and it was just right - i.e., not too heavy, meaning I could search for somewhere else at lunchtime and not be too full!!! Good value too for what you get, and it being in London - large latte only £3.60 and the bagel was £7.20 sit in.
Read morePros: Great variety of options to suit all tastes, Friendly staff, Good value for money

Delicious vegan salmon - Edit
I love vegan salmon and vegan salmon bagels so obviously this was a place for me. Besides the bagels we also tried the avocado toast and smoothie bowl - everything was really good. The place is cosy and the staff are super friendly. A must try place especially for vegan salmon lovers!

Lovely breakfast - Edit
Lots of vegan options - we shared the egg toastie and cheese& pesto toastie. Lovely bread and big portions. The pastries also looked amazing! But unfortunately they had run out of the croissant I wanted. Lots of sweet and savoury options to take away as well
Read morePros: Good price , Varied brekkie options , Fresh pastries
Cons: On a main road , Might not have space to eat in on a busy day

New found, very good - Edit
Cycle there so often and didn’t know about it!
Read moreAs soon as I found they’re veggie went to check them out for brunch and it was delicious!
We had frittata(nice fat slice served with hummus and spinach), zalmon bagel, pancakes and the cinnamon roll and oh yeah! It was good! Together with two coffees we paid just under £30 which is for London reasonable price.
I’m totally in love with the salmon and came back for it just two weeks later and on that occasion tried the spicy rice burrito. It was good but N’1 for me is zalmon!:P also just now I found out the zalmon itself is £4!!! I think I’ll carry on cycling around often
Edit 12/11
Keep coming back for he zalmon as much as I can !

Bit Spenny But Worth The Penny - Edit
There I was, on a Saturday morning. Hungry, parched. “I fancy some breakfast” I thought to myself. So I looked online for breakfast food. I saw “English Muffin” at Sazzy and Fran’s, so I ordered it. For a moment in time I felt like a normal human being despite being a vegan.

Hi,
Read moreThank you for your review and thank you for ordering from us.
I agree with you about the price online but unfortunately the costs to be on ubereats is very high, ( uber charge us 30% per order on the total spend plus we need to add 20% VAT on the total order too ) this why our price are high.
Thank you very much for your support.

A nice, friendly café - Edit
Good coffee and food. A good variety of vegan food, including cakes. A small bright space and a friendly welcome. It's let down by its use of dairy milk. I would encourage them to become fully vegan.

Hidden gem - Edit
My boyfriend and I originally planned to go to the Just Fab bus. However despite Google and happy cow saying it was open, when we got there at 1pm it was locked.
Read moreWe couldn't have been happier for the this turn of events led us to the Sazzy and Fran cafe. Tucked away in a quiet area, the food was absolutely incredible. My boyfriend (non-vegan) was amazed by how good everything was. They were really friendly too and we got a free sample of a lemon sorbet. 5*!!

Vegan food in lovely setting - Edit
Enthusiastic and thoughtful owners offer interesting vegan food, cakes, cookies...I had French toast which was really good...offered with option of soy yogurt or coconut cream.
Read moreBowls made from Palm, cups and cutlery from corn starch mean there is as little impact on environment as possible..
They are still serving dairy milk but hope to go 100% vegan soon.
Easy to get to from brick lane...an interesting 15 minute walk passing by Bethnal green market and museum of childhood.
Pros: All vegan food and several plant milks on offer, Eco friendly, Reasonable prices

interesting new place - Edit
The Italians are making their passion for food felt in the vegan scene of London at last! Picky Wops in the west, Piadina Genuina in Hackney and now this place in Bethnal Green right next to the Fab Bus!
Read moreThey have a limited menu that changes everyday and each week, but I think Fridays will always have Pizza as an option. The food is fresh, the service friendly and the location interesting. A little tricky to find so I posted a boring photo of the entrance from the Oval road just off Hackney Road. We,ll be back!
Pros: good tasty fresh food, friendly and keen service, inexpensive
Cons: limited options, limited space
sazzyandfrancafe

Everything is freshly made here, so to avoid waste and keep up the quality we are developing items as our customer base grows, let us know if you have suggestions to add to the menu.
