Lovely soup

We came for the art gallery / rope museum which is really wonderful.
Only had a soup, Curried Parsnip which was great. Other vegan options I could see are light bites, sandwiches and cakes. Nice place.

Pros: Soup, Friendly

Cons: Not a great variety.

I love the cosy ambience in here. Staff are very friendly. Dishes are vegetarian and some can be made vegan. Serves vegan cakes and non-dairy hot drinks

Adaptable menu

Menu says some dishes can be made vegan so when I enquired they told me they were able to make the panini I wanted with vegan cheese instead

Lovely but could improve vegan options

I had visited the café before just for coffee, which is very nice, and they have a choice of oat or soy milk. People were friendly and it is a lovely place with a range of artworks exhibited inside (paintings, sculptures, ceramic...) Nice to sit outside, it is dog-friendly and people of all ages were enjoying the sun.
This time we went for lunch. I picked their dish of the day for £12. It was a Chinese stir-fry which "can be made vegan". When it arrived it was simply shredded vegetables (carrot, cabbage, bean sprouts) bathing in very sweet soy sauce. No cards, no protein of any sort. I was hoping for mushroom, tofu, or noodles...! They did bring a small ramequin of Chinese crackers. I asked for some more and they did bring them promptly. My mum enjoyed her Greek filo pastry dish which was veggie (with cheese and leek) and came with some salad and coleslaw. That cost only £7.50. We were a bit confused about such a difference in price!
As I was still hungry we got some cakes. They had two vegan options: lemon or ginger cake. My lemon cake was tasty but pretty dry - I couldn't finish it. My mum enjoyed her coffee cake. I will be back for the art and the coffee but won't have food there, unless they work on their options.

Delicious vegan cakes!

This place had lovely vegan options, apple wood cheese toasties, soup etc. Note on menu to say many more options can be made vegan. The vegan cakes were delicious, we had the Victoria sponge and the chocolate brownie whixh were lovely.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan cakes, Chooses of vegan milk
