Perfect remedy - Edit
Excellent place for leisurely breakfast/brunch. Very friendly and welcoming and good range of food. Nice ambience, laid back but efficient. Food was good too, had the Remedy full breakfast. Definitely worth seeking out.

Vegan diamond in York - Edit
The second we walked in we were greeted by Chris, who went through the menu to let us know what was suitable for my partner, and was happy to give us some background on where they source their coffee. Everything sounded great so we opted for the full Remedy Breakfast and the Chickpea Fritters (lunch). Coffees were delicious, and the food was gorgeous! Only thing I can note is the fritter could do with some oil/moisture to it (some blended mango pulp would help inside whilst elevating it). It's a small place so make sure you get in quick, cannot recommend enough!

Could have slayed harder - Edit
It was our first time trying this vegan cafe and we loved it!
Read moreWe stopped here for brunch so they were busy, however we got a table. We waited over an hour for our food which was a shame but the staff reduced our bill which was nice of them!
I got the porridge with the seasonal toppings which were rhubarb, yoghurt and granola. The rhubarb was soft and worked really well with the sourness of the yoghurt!
My partner got the big breakfast which wasn’t that big. It had some homemade beans, bread, scrambled vegan eggs, spinach and mushrooms. It all tasted good but the portions were a little small.

Ethical modern vegan kitchen - Edit
Small cafe that feels ethical (including recycling and waste management) and modern. The sort of place where you want to eat everything on the menu. Once when I visited and it was rammed, they took my number and called me when there was a table.

Good honest food - Edit
I liked the atmosphere of this place and the staff was very friendly. The food itself was ok, not amazing. My favourite thing was the bread with cream cheese and the chocolate chip cookie. Also, if you go on Saturday be prepared to wait - 30 mins to piece the order plus another 30-40 to get it.

Nice - Edit
Our breakfasts were a bit different to the ordinary 'vegan full English', so that was nice. The atmosphere and feel of the place is lovely and the owner(?) was really nice and so friendly.
Read moreThe ethos of the cafe is superb. Zero waste, nothing to landfill, as Eco as it gets!
The only criticism is that the Remedy big breakfast arrived already cold. The flavours were great, the presentation awesome, but please, heat up the plates before serving. They were stone cold.
We were hoping for a great coffee (having read the reviews). We visited York for 2 nights, 3 days and didn't manage a decent coffee during our entire stay, so our criticism here isn't reserved just for this cafe. Is the coffee in York just weak or does everyone just prefer tea? 🙄
Support Remedy and give them a visit. They're doing a lot of really great things.
Pros: The flavours and quality of the food , The friendly service , How eco-friendly it is. It couldn't be better!
Cons: Cold plates, leads to cold food , Weak coffee

Exceptional - Edit
I went to remedy after following them on Instagram for a good period of time, and based on this it's safe to say my expectations were high.
Read moreAs soon as we turned up, we knew our expectations would be exceeded but not quite how much they would be.
Remedy is a very special place. From the food to the drinks to the hosting - I say hosting because Remedy isn't just a cafe where you turn up and someone takes your order.
The staff are all chatty, explaining the menu in depth, and are clearly passionate about what they're doing. This elevated remedy in my opinion to one of the best cafes I've ever visited.
The food was exquisite. It's so good we also returned the next day for breakfast so we could sample more of the menu.
Miso mushrooms, scrambled chickpeas, french toast, everything was impeccable and we can't wait to return.
Pros: Everything, Incredible hosts, Amazing menu
Remedy
What a wonderful review.

A Remedy giving me hope - Edit
Very welcoming owner/staff that read out the ingredients of the dishes on the menu board. We wanted them all and both settled on the spears on crispy kale and hummus with chilli oil, which was scrumptious. We also had the Juliene Bruno on sourdough toast, which was delicious. We will definitely be back and hopefully soon at my wish to celebrate 4yrs a Vegan there💚💚💚
