Chili bean stew for the win!!

Ok so their vegan chili bean stew was so good, we went back the next day and ordered it again. We also tried their vegan penne with avocado. For dessert we had the coconut banana pie. Everything is delicious! Tip: you can order hash browns on the side, but you need to ask them to pan fry it to make it vegan. They normally cook it in lard.

A few vegan options

Very friendly and happy staff.
It was nice and warm and cosy as its winter atm.
Coffee was lovely. My meal was the Bean Stack. So much flavour.
I would definitely go again when I am in town.

Pros: Meal was very tasty, Decent size meal-didnt need extras, Very friendly staff

Disinterested staff

We popped in for coffee after reading reviews on here and when asked staff just stated that there were no vegan cakes. No alternative offered. We didn’t stay.

Good for a small town

Came here for a quick bite before travelling south. The staff were very accommodating and made a few changes to the menu for us. I had the homemade jam on toast with nuttelex and my boyfriend had the vege breaky with nuttelex making both dishes vegan. Also great coffee and had milk substitutes

Pros: Great staff and willing to make changes to menu

Cons: Not a lot of options
