Amazing to get a full vegan breakfast

Amazing coffee and the food was delicious. However, I do think that it could have been hotter. But the bread they made the toast with was so tasty, they even had vegan butter. Scabled tofu was just perfect,

Got two blueberry croissants to take away aswell and they were delicious.

Pros: Great vegan selection , Tasty food, Friendly staff

Cons: Food a littke cold, Could do with opening a little earlier

Great Pancakes

Pancakes themselves were incredible, however serving size was a bit to small. Almost needed another plate to feel full.

Best vegan food in Galway

Eaten here twice and there’s consistently good vegan wholefood choices. It’s not solely vegan but caters well for us. Plant-based sausage roll is a great takeaway. #Veganuary

Pros: Vegans well catered for. , Staff very helpful, Menus very clear

Cons: Not open at night! Wish it was.

Cute and cozy spot

Stopped in for breakfast and coffee. Super friendly and helpful, a little bit tight as its a small spot but not bad. Food was unreal! So tasty. Had the faux Irish breakfast and the pancakes. Would def stop by again next time in Galway.

A bit expensive

Went there for a piece of cake and got the brownie. €6 for a piece of brownie was a bit expensive, I think. However, it had a lot of stuff on the top and they offered to warm it up for me. The brownie was okay.

Pros: Friendly staff

Cons: A bit pricey

Best vegan breakfast in Galway

We were in Galway for 3 days and came here for breakfast each day. The staff is unbelievably friendly and remembered us when we came in. The vegan mini fry and vegan scones were out of this world. They also have really great coffee and tea. It’s so comfortable and welcoming. Can’t wait to return next time we’re in Galway

Pros: Tons of vegan options, Staff is knowledgeable and friendly , Cozy environment

small but cute!

love this place, nice vegan and vegetarian options, once again i've never sat in but they do great soups, sandwichs and desserts (you can actually get a whole cake if you order in advance, i had a lovely lemon drizzle one for my birthday once), and it's nice to drop in every so often for a vegan hot chocolate. it's small in side but it's cute with a little outside seating to watch the world go by if you want

Gorgeous food

I got a chai latte to start with and ordered whatever the special was, basically a beautiful Thai red tasting curry with brown rice. It was so flavoursome and lovely. My hubby (omnivore) got the Mexican sweet potato bowl and really enjoyed it.

I then got a mint tea and lovely carrot cake.

Service was great and staff were really friendly.

Would definitely recommend it!

Welcoming and cozy

Lovely little spot! The food is flavourful and comforting. Quite a lot of vegan options including wine. It is a bit expansive, you kinda pay for the atmosphere in this case I guess. However recommended

Cozy little place with very nice hot drinks

Very nice hot drinks. The vegan fry wasn't the best to me, however, my boyfriend thought it was really good. I enjoyed the homemade Chai latte a lot. It's very cozy and comparably quiet too, which I liked.

Pros: Many vegan options, Vegan treats

Cons: Limited gf choices
