Friendly staff, cosy vibes - Edit
Delicious food from a seasonal menu. Locally created artwork displayed and available to purchase. Friendly staff who are happy to chat. Big slices of cake! Slightly out the way but worth the journey. If it were totally vegan it would get 5 stars.

Great cakes, great atmosphere! - Edit
Surprised to find this little place on our walk from Coniston to Torver. Small place with limited tables but there’s outside seating of the weather’s good. Cakes are tasty and good portions. Friendly staff and a wonderful artistic atmosphere

Delicious - Edit
The food was absolutely top notch. Fabulous soup, beetroot hummus toast and an excellent ginger cake. Very cool that this place is so busy given its remote location. The food is artistically presented but not at the expense of flavour. The menu is small but I wanted to try everything on it. The location is outside the small village of Torver, in a converted farm (?) so it is completely rural and I can't imagine a better place for such a delicious meal.
Read morePros: Tasted great, Gorgeous setting
Cons: No tables left outside!

Beautiful place - Edit
Art studio and gallery come cafe, a few mins off the main road / centre of Torver.
Read moreI had the BLAT which is a vegan BLT. It was delicious, as was the side salad.
A brucey bonus was the water - free and it's from a spring!
I also do not say "great coffee" lightly, but this certainly was.
This could be the perfect cafe.

A hidden gem - Edit
This is my favourite place to go eat.
Read moreThe staff are amazing, the food is always more than impressive with loads of vegan options on the menu, including the best sandwich ever, black pepper tofu sandwich, and cake, such great cake!
The atmosphere is so tranquil and relaxing, I wish I could reserve a table to work at every day instead of my office while.
Oh, and there's a supper club once a month with a separate menu which is well worth booking well in advance as it's very popular!
Pros: Amazing vegan food, Great vegan cake, Peaceful atmosphere
