Nothing special for the price

We ordered 2 vegan breakfasts, a flat white and an americano which came to £33.20, not the cheapest by a long shot and nice but for the price I would prefer something a little bit more special.

The breakfast consists of 1 sausage, smashed avo, 1 piece of toast, a trinket of beans, 1 flat mushroom, babaganoush, hash brown and a grilled tomato. It was nice but the hash browns were over cooked so just crumbled when you cut into them, the beans weren’t homemade and the babaganoush didn’t really go with anything on the dish. It would have been great with some scrambled tofu or something a little bit more special than your average breakfast.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Expensive , Nothing special

No IFs about it … go now

Looking for a place for Brunch that caters for 4 carnivores, 2 vegans, 1 cake eater and a baby isn’t easy. But I’d wanted to eat at IF … Up North for a while as it’s reported to have a great vegan menu.
Focussing on the vegan food we had the vegan breakfast, vegan burrito, a dirty chai latte and 2 Bloody Mary’s.

Vegan Breakfast - 1 rasher of It’s Not Bacon, 1 sausage, dollop of smashed avocado, small tin of smokey beans, a plum tomato halved, a good amount of seasoned spinach, a hash brown, nice amount of mushrooms and slice of toasted sourdough bread. Everything was cooked well and I was amazed that mixing the spinach with smashed avocado gave it a buttery softness which was welcoming.

IF Vegan Burrito - This was pretty bloody good. A soft warm tortilla filled with mixed beans, mushrooms, avocado, cheese, salad and jalapeños. With a yoghurt and coriander dip. It was really flavoursome, plenty of jalapeños gave it a good amount of heat. Couldn’t fault it.

Dirty Chai Latte - was average at best but I thinks that’s more down to the espresso shot not having much kick.

The Bloody Mary’s were made well but we had to ask twice and they arrived after we’d finished eating.

This review would have gone from 4 to 5 stars had it had 2 rashes, 2 sausages and the drinks served with the food instead of after. Small things.

Not cheap. It worth it.

Will I go back - with so many vegan places, only through convenience.

Would I recommend - Yes. It was good.
