This place is honestly one of the best vegan restaurants I’ve ever been to! - Edit
We’ve been twice and I’m stuck between wanting to order everything we’ve already had and yet wanting to try everything on their menu! The tuna melt is seriously in my dreams!

Yum! - Edit
Just stopped by for a late lunch, and once again, it was outstanding. I chose the special: a fantastic breakfast burrito. Feeling indulgent, I also ordered a side of mac and cheese. This place consistently impresses with its delicious food, wonderful staff, and daily specials that never disappoint.

Hi Craig!
Read moreThanks for leaving a review and it's always nice to chat to you at events.
It's incredibly difficult to plan how many portions to bring to events and what will be the most popular dish.
Falkirk Vegan Festival was more popular than anyone could have hoped for and therefore we sold out of things more quickly than expected.
See you at more events soon!

Probably could eat here every day. - Edit
Delicious sandwiches. We had the reuben, hot bacon and a side of mac n cheese. All were incredible. After the meal, we also got a special which was the McRib to takeaway. I am not sure if it was because we saved it for later and it sat for hours and got cold before we had it but it was not as good. We would like to try it again fresh and hot.
Read moreStaff was friendly and location is good as it is just a few steps from the tram. The only downside is that the sun streams into the shop and can be blinding. I might have gotten a sunburn. haha.
I can't wait to go back and try out some other sandwiches.

Extremely positive - Edit
Sandwitches were amazing and the cake melted in my mouth. Feels a little bit like a sauna inside sometimes, I hope the cooks are okay in the kitchen!

Don’t hesitate, just go! - Edit
Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Co-owner was also super nice. Haggis melt was delicious and the chicken Caesar salad was WELL AND ABOVE any others I've ever had.
Read moreIf you have any dietary restrictions, they've done a great job to label each dish on the menu.
The bus stops almost directly in front of their spot, so it's literally a 10 step walk once you get dropped off.
Pros: Excellently executed vegan food, Great owners, Right off the bus line
Cons: Small space

Breakfast of champions - Edit
Ordered the buttermilk chicken sandwich and the faux McMuffin. Both delicious. Both specials. Have been back since and tried the Reuben sandwich, which did not disappoint. Very friendly staff too, who are clearly passionate about the food they are serving. 10/10

I travel over an hour once a week to get my fix - Edit
Plenty of delicious options plus weekly specials kept me coming back week after week to try something new. No menu item should be slept on, they are all incredible, however the mac and cheese is possibly in a league of its own. Everything is made fresh and although the space is small, it's very cosy and very friendly.
Read morePros: Friendly staff + pet friendly, Weekly specials, Consistently good and varied options

BEST VEGAN FOOD I’VE EVER HAD - Edit
I’ve been going here once a week for about 8 months. I have tried pretty much everything on the menu and honestly I can’t say they’ve ever missed the mark. The food is INSANELY good. They make all their own cheese and meat in house which is so rare . I tried the Mac and cheez Sando with bacon on my third visit because I saw it had won awards and honestly, I don’t think I could go a single week without eating one. The grilled sandwiches are addictive. The Crunchwrap with chicken is another star of the menu. Kimcheeze is delicious, tuna melt is insane!!!! Must visit for Edinburgh
Read morePros: EVERYTHING on the menu is great, Hot staff , V chill ambiance
Cons: Too much banjo music

Hi!
Read moreSo glad you seemed to enjoy your visit to our wee business.
Just to clarify a couple of your Cons: firstly, there is garlic in the Caesar salad dressing.
Secondly, it's a choice to add a side to your sandwich. The choices we offer are crisps, salad or Mac 'n' Cheese. Sorry if this wasn't clear enough!
Thanks for your review!
