Top,top Indian. - Edit
Large range of Vegan dishes, beautifully presented by friendly, knowledgeable staff. The food was faultless and interesting. The Bhel Puri was sensational. Possibly the best Indian I've ever had. 5 stars, if I could.

Vegan Indian Breakfast - Edit
We loved this little place. The food tasted fantastic and it was so nice to see so many vegan options in Buxton. My favourite part was the camping atmosphere and shelves of games to play. It’s nice to see they’re beginning to do events now too e.g. games night. The chai was amazing!

Not as many vegan options as before - Edit
Used to come here all the time, was always so excited for the vegan cakes and pastries (sometimes I had two!!). But recently there was less vegan options, and when I went in today there were only two (a blueberry scone and one of the 4 cakes). Everything else had eggs and dairy in it; felt more like your standard café.
Read morePros: Good savoury options, Lots of vegan hot drinks, Allergens listed prominently
Cons: Barely any vegan cakes and pastries any more

Best baked potato! - Edit
Small, busy café with labelled vegan options. I had baked potato with chickpea curry - possibly the best baked potato I’ve had ever! The salad garnish was crisp and fresh. I also ordered matcha & kale smoothie made with oat milk (usually made with orange juice that has added sugar). The smoothie was actually a frozen mango base, it didn’t even look green, and was too sweet for my palette. Our server brought me green tea instead and didn’t charge me for either.

Great atmosphere - Edit
I really loved the decorations in this cafe. Very unique and pretty! The staff were friendly and chatty, and we enjoyed the drinks and food. They have some unusual options like the beetroot vanilla latte and a vegan blueberry scone… Lovely. Would recommend.
Read moreP.S. if you can’t handle a lot of spice talk to the staff before you order - my friends both found their food too spicy.

Scrambled tofu! - Edit
Lovely they have vegan English breakfast here with scrambled tofu! The sausages were the best we have eaten until now!
Read moreThe scrambled tofu could be seasoned better with f.i. cumin, soy sauce, garlic- and onion powder. Kala Mak salt would be option too.
But the staff was very friendly and we had a good time which is also important!

I visited the chakra lounge back in August 2020 and the food was tasty! It was also really well priced, and the staff were super lovely. The restaurant itself is also really nice, especially the bench at the front with the lights and water feature (definitely insta-worthy!)

Delicious and Stunning - Edit
Lovely to have a cafe with plenty of vegan options (including watermelon steak) in a small town, the options aren't just a token addition. I'm addicted to their vegan breakfast and the hot drinks can all be made without dairy. Great vegan knowledge from the staff.
Read morePros: Multiple vegan and vegetarian options, Staff are fully aware of veganism, Independent

So good!! - Edit
This would get 5* if HappyCow would allow it. Firstly, dog friendly (very friendly)! Lovely staff. It had plenty of vegan options including: breakfast (one of the best I've had and only at £6!), burger and sweet potato wedges, some Indian style side plates, noodles, buddha bowl, soup, lots of cakes and all the drinks can be made with soy or coconut milk. Plenty of seating with board games and books around the cafe. Will definitely be go back. Fab find.
