Cute cafe with some vegan options

Been coming to this place for a long time now, mostly for coffee. They usually have at least 2 vegan main courses and 1 vegan special on at any given time, and offer a variety of self-serve salads that are usually vegan too. They also have 1 vegan breakfast option (avo on toast) and have plant milk options for coffee/tea. Vegetarians will fare a lot better here, with a lot more options available for them.

Don't waste your time going here

I passed by the cafe today 3/02/2020. I wanted to try the vegan options which are not many on the menu. I chose the vegan wrap which CLEARLY stated it had beans and served with avocado🙄🙄. Got home and boom! The wrapped was filled with only peppers, no beans and no avocado. I called the restaurant the guys who served me picks up and goes like( next time we shall give you a discount!!!) No apology nothing. Disgusting!

Fyi I also got a salad from the salad bar which they had mentioned was fully vegan only to find it had feta cheese in it while I was putting it in the box the chef goes like ( oh yes this is not vegan friendly) the salad didn't look sanitary as well, cover it up for Heaven sake !

Such a beautiful space they have but the staff and the quality of food is a miss. If you value what you put in the mouth skip this place.

Pros: Beautiful space

Cons: Staff are not interested or not trained , No attention to detail , No value for money at all

Good food

Only wish there was a gluten free/vegan option (it would be nice if they had GF bread)

Pros: There is a variety for meet and non meat eaters

Cons: No gluten free and vegan options together

Hidden gem

This cafe had lots of vegan options- I was very pleased to finally have lots of choice,
The mains are all served with a selection of approx 8 delicious fresh salads all vegan apart from one that had feta in it.
I chose the spicy chickpea and sweet corn burger that was tasty and cooked beautifully.
The setting is very idyllic amongst trees and covered in verandah. Two lovely dogs roaming freely but not a nuisance. The service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommend to all vegetarians and vegans 👍
