Not good for vegans - Edit
On entry the waitress/server was very rude. The only vegan option was either a jacket potato and beans, or a vegan cheese sandwich with chutney or pickle. It came with a small salad, and coleslaw which isn't vegan. The waitress remained rude throughout ordering and delivering the food too.

Carelessness and lack of knowledge towards veganism - Edit
Lovely quaint cafe that was bustling with customers, and had barely any seating left.
Read moreStaff didn't seem sure as to what was vegan, only when asked did they give a half hearted response of oh yeh it is. Later when my food came there was coleslaw (non-vegan) in it and with my coffee what looked to be a non-vegan biscuit, I wasn't impressed.
Only a couple of questionably vegan options, they were questionable as the service seemed a little sloppy. Despite what I have mentioned about this venue so far the panini was actually okay but i wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. I recommend checking out Java cafe and Sanders Yard instead if you are looking for tasty/trustworthy vegan food.
On a positive note the coffee was decent.
At just over £7 for the panini that was lacking in filling I would say slightly over priced, plus they wanted a tip when I went to pay at the till.
Pros: Non-dairy milks available, Old fashioned feel
Cons: Lack of knowledge and carelessness , Overpriced food

Read moreCafe is slightly chaotic… you might even have to queue outside! Very nice decor inside though and very chilled.

Needs an upgrade - Edit
They were completely clueless as to any allergies in their food. One minute they said the bread had milk in and the next they said it didn't, which made me not feel confident that they knew what a vegan diet was. The vegan option we did have was very boring and bland. They did say they had oat milk but we ended up not having a coffee in the end.

Okay if you just want a vegetable sandwich or a jacket potato😄 - Edit
Sat down, waited 15 minutes for someone to come to the table to take an order. No visible marked vegan options on the menu so had to ask.

Quite Elementary - Edit
So this is on Happy Cow I see. Been coming here for years mainly for a tea or coffee but also a bite to eat on a couple of occasions. I tend not to pay for tea out anywhere as I think it’s a complete waste of money but I have to say Sherlocks provide an enjoyable and traditionally English tearoom experience. Food-wise, a red pepper and hummus panini isn’t exactly exhilaratingly inventive but it did the job. Lovely quaint place, an efficiently run fussy tearoom with staff who wear aprons. I like it but it’s not going to make the vegan wall calendar.
Read morePros: traditional tea room, multi levels, great tea and coffee
