Minehead is on the vegan map!

40 years ago when my folx used to bring us to Minehead whilst visiting Grandma and Grandad the only food we were interested in was fish and chips. Now a little wiser and a lot older I brought my Dad and his sister to Toucan to see what it offers vegans. My Dad isn't veggie but he knows a good meal when he has one and his veggie Homity pie was a great success. My partner and I put the staff through the awkward squad test and asked what was vegan, as well as nightshade and sugar free and still available 10 mins before the kitchen was due to close (beware earlier winter closing!). We had the soup, a serious portion with similar sized chunky bread and bean burgers with side salad. Washed down with a Roibois tea, a choc banana shake and finishing with an almond and apricot sugar free cake. All were great. The burger was moist, the Mayo tasty, the salad fresh and with dressing but not too much, the shake sweet and rich but not sickly, the cake was splendid. Dad reckoned the almond cake he had was the most almondy almond cake he's ever tasted! I assumed that was a good thing! The bill for four meals and drinks was about £40 and we were very happy with that. The staff were helpful, and polite, the cafe is bright and colourful with a nice old school veggie cafe feel. There were lots of vegan options that had sold out but hey we were kind of late!
The cafe is up stairs so wheel chair users might have to miss out on this great little place.
The cafe sits above a health food shop which looked well stocked .
Minehead is certainly on the Vegan

Pleasant, feel good, healthy and affordable.

First impressions...

Nice interior. Colourful and feel good. Multiple rooms to choose from.

Friendly, smiley and chatty staff.

Good selection of vegan food.

Affordable basic but tasty food. I had sweet potato and ginger soup with was lovely and served with very nice bread and vegan spread. My girlfriend had spinach pie with a side salad which she also liked.

Left very happy to have found a pleasant vege/vegan café so close to Exmoor.

Pros: Friendly staff, Affordable, Tasty food
