Very good range of vegan choices for both vegans and non vegans

The extensive menu made choosing difficult, but that's a nice problem to have! Starters of spring rolls with sweet chilli sauce and southern fried mushrooms with garlic mayo were tasty and fresh. I had the japanese satay skewers with tofu for main which was lovely - beautifully soft and airy tofu with a hint of peanut coating to go with a satay sauce, rice and cucumber. Very well balanced. My partner had teriyaki tofu which unfortunately was not good - too heavy on the teriyaki, couldn't taste anything but that which was a shame. Did feel as though it lacked the fresh healthy vegan options.

Pros: Great menu choice, Lovely space with books about veganism

Cons: Lack of fresh vegetable options

Best vegan spot in Cumbria

Every vegan on holiday in the Lakes needs to come here! The menu is huge - mix of authentic pan Asian and more junk foody stuff (sandwiches, burgers, pasta, etc). All executed with care and tonnes of flavour. Lovely staff.

A must-visit! Worth travelling for!!

The menu is EXTENSIVE. Fully vegan and multiple different cuisines. We had a chikn pad Thai, a Philly steak and cheeze baguette, and doner dirty chips. Our son had nuggets and chips. We really enjoyed it. Small cafe but wasn't too busy (a local secret perhaps!) Interesting vegan cook books to nosey through while waiting. Family run, nice staff.

Pros: So so so many options to choose from, Huge portions, Range of meat replacements

Cons: Not fancy looking if you're into that.

Amazing Variety

What a fabulous find. With gorgeous vegan food and super friendly staff.

So much choice. We had the chilli burger with chips and garlic and lemon seasoning and the ginger and spring onion tofu noodles with salt and pepper chips.

Fresh and quickly prepared and generous portions.

Good value.

Very good and tasty 10/10

Ordered two southern fried mushroom burger with chips and nachos, for me and the hubby, it was really nice and we would order again, but maybe not the nachos as well, as the burger was bigger than we thought it would be.

Ordered a 2nd time now and again the food was really good and arrived hot. I think we have now found our favourite vegan place to order from and will be ordering from here from now on.

Pros: Burger was bigger than expected, Food was hot when we got it, Good size bag of chips

This place is brilliant

The portion sizes here are huge! There’s no way you could come here and leave hungry. They have a nice range of different coffee blends and alternative milks. New favourite place to go to in Barrow 😊

So Good

What a marvellous place. Exclusively vegan, it has a big selection of great food. The music was genuinely "background." (Music only - no singing and not too loud.) The charming waitress even turned it down further without me asking when I joked about why I'd sat in a corner of the spacious cafe. The food was tasty, well-presented and the portions were generous. If I had to make a minor criticism, I'd suggest adding smoothies to the menu, smartening up the toilet and improving kitchen ventilation to reduce frying odours. However these were all very minor issues and I have no hesitation in giving 5 stars and a "favourite" award.

Pros: Wonderful food, Spacious, calm and comfortable, Polite, helpful staff

Just what Barrow needs!

It’s about time that Barrow got it’s own Vegan Cafe and I finally got the chance to visit the new Sweet Pepper Cafe and as expected I wasn’t disappointed!
They have a great selection for lunch from salad to even a ‘Cheeze Burger’. On my visit today I was served by a nice polite lady who took our order quite quickly, and the food arrived quickly too. I got the Caeser Salad and added some ‘Chickn’ onto it which was delicious! I also got the Fried Oyster Mushrooms and they were delicious also! Even treated myself to a very tasty Avocado Bubble Shake! I absolutely plan to go again, I might even make it my weekly spot for lunch.

Pros: Good choice of food and drink, Friendly staff and service, Spacious
