Much improved! - Edit
I’ve been visiting this place for over ten years (since the time it was vegetarian through the time when they transitioned to vegan and mostly recently in dec 2025)
Read more2025 update: after a few years break I went again and was amazed by the food. The salads are amazing and is now my go-do meal! (See photo attached).
The biscoff doughnut is amazing too. Only negative is the coffee had a bit of a burnt taste which indicates the machine needs calibrating/barista a bit of training on equipment.
Customer service was amazing and the staff super friendly! I will be back!

Pros: Excellent staff, Excellent food
Cons: Coffee still burnt tasting (not good!)

Nice breakfast - Edit
Had scramble on toast which was nice with quality ingredient. Some options weren’t available. Possibly a bit too oily and heavy on the tumeric, but was very enjoyable.

Vegan breakfast in an artsy setting - Edit
I really wanted to try the vegan full English, but it’s only available on weekends. But the granola was so good it gave me wings 😂 Little oasis of peace and art - keep doing what you do guys, you are beautiful!

Thank Goodness a cheeze toastie! - Edit
Went here for lunch before the young V&A museum. Super vegan choices. Our dishes including the salad sides were full of flavour. And so lovely to be able to get a proper cheeze toasted sandwich (posher than the ones i make at home!). Good coffee too. We sat in the beautiful Chelsea winning garden and fed the fattest pigeon ever and a very friendly robin. A little oasis in the East end.

Lovely breakfast find! - Edit
Great little spot with relaxing atmosphere to enjoy a breakfast or lunch. I opted for the tofu benedict followed by a slice of raspberry cake, both delicious, and a huge soy latte to go with it. £18 in total, which for London, is pretty decent value

Leckeres veganes English Breakfast - Edit
Das vegane English Breakfast war super, der Preis in Ordnung. Schönes Ambiente und nettes Personal. Als wir da waren, kam gerade eine große Gruppe herein und es wurde ziemlich laut. Aber das ist wahrscheinlich nicht immer so. Auf jeden Fall weiterzuempfehlen.

Original vegan options - Edit
Loved the tofu benny and the kimchi toastie was great too. The garden out back is a total sun trap and super cute. Lovely staff. I’d like to try more options here.

Little gem in East London - Edit
One of our favourite places for brunch in this part of London. Food is tasty, decent coffee & decent GF bread which isn’t always the case. Nice, chilled atmosphere with a lovely garden area at the back. Well worth a visit.

Paradise - Edit
Absolutely loved this cafe, cannot believe it exists, and in such a good location (next to Young V&A). All plant-based and a varied and creative menu, from salads to tofu benny. Great coffee and pastries too. Big garden and inside seating.

Wonderful breakfast - Edit
Came here twice for breakfast and was not disappointed. Speedy arrival of the food, different choices than you’d often find, love the creativity, and good portion sizes. Especially loved everything with tofu and the tempeh jam.

Vegan café with cakes and salad bar - Edit
A short walk from Yotel Shoreditch. Seems like a hot spot for students & remote workers as there were a lot of laptops. Lots of pastries and cakes on offer and a salad bar, some breakfast options too but we didn’t try those. I had a lovely, big pan au raisin which was well priced at £3.10. The salad bar was a bit underwhelming though, maybe some pasta needed!
