Good Food with a Good Heart

I am always keen to support food-based community initiatives where I can, so dining here was no-brainier.
It’s a comfortable little spot with an excellent shop attached where you can pick up fresh bread, and more importantly, a decent range of sweet treats. While the sandwich I had was quite basic (and expensive for what it was), I did enjoy it and the sausage roll was also of a good standard. The highlight though was the mini Bakewell tart, the best one that I’ve had in a fair while.
I don’t know if I would necessarily make a beeline for the cafe again anytime soon, but I would definitely frequent the shop on a regular basis to grab more of the baked goods.

A wee gem!

Only had takeaway coffee and chocolate cake from the shop but it was really good. The shop has so many things to choose from too. Will definitely be spending more time here and will return to eat at the main cafe in future too.

Pros: Lots of options, Welcoming staff, Great for stocking up

Great selection of dairy free ice cream!

Just wandered in here after a lovely walk in the sunshine and was so excited to find a diverse selection of vegan ice cream - what a rarity! So delicious and the staff were so friendly too. Great place! Can't wait to come back for lunch one day soon.

Pros: lots of vegan options

Organic Veggie

Have eaten here across many years. Menu is always decent, but not huge.
Staffed mostly by Germans who are connected with the nearby Camphill community.
Offers some fridge, freezer and dried organic goods (Suma etc).
Can get very full at lunch time.

Pros: Totally organic, All vegetarian

A true gem!

This is such a special place! There's a true sense of community as soon as you walk in! Everything is vegetarian here and there are many vegan (and vegan adaptable) dishes. There are lots of classics on the menu and lots of variety with the daily specials. There is generally one vegan dessert on offer and everything always fresh and tasty!

Pros: In-store bakery- best bread in Holywood!, Fantastic veg*n products for sale, Excessive mobile phone use discouraged

Cons: Small cafe- difficult to manoeuvre prams
