Nice for lunch

I ate lunch here twice whilst on holiday and was pleased to see quite a few vegan meals on the menu and clearly marked. Food was tasty and came with additional salads. Lovely chocolate cake. Reasonable amount of seating and also an outdoor bit.

Pros: vegan dishes, friendly staff

Pleasant Surroundings

Nice place at the back of a bookshop (strange, but the cooking section has meat cookery books) Anyway, the cafe is 100% vegetarian and serves great main courses and snacks. Shame they don't do an all day breakfast. The main courses are quite expensive but OK for a one-off. Good range of teas and light snacks. Cramped seating area.

Pros: good main courses

Cons: cramped, expensive

Delicious food

We visited York for the day. Found this place in the Vegetarian Visitor, and went there for lunch.
They had a good selection of vegan food, clearly marked on the menu. This also included cake!
I had mushroom wellington with potatoes, and generous helpings of 4 salads, followedd by a date and apple slice. Prices were reasonable , with large portion sizes. Friendly staff too.

Pros: Several Vegan choices, Cake!, Good value

Cons: None

Worth a visit

Although i did not have a main course the vegan selection was good and looked very healthy. All vegan food is clearly marked and the staff helpfull. I visited the place twice and the second time the coffee was served warm which was disappointing but this may just be a bad day as it was very busy. A must place to visit for vegans to show support for local vegetarian/vegan cafes.

Pros: Clean, Good vegan selection, well priced

Cons: warm coffee
