Girlfriend had the quiche and pasta today 2 Oct, the pasta was tasteless, girlfriend asked for it to be changed to a side salad instead of the pasta.
So out comes the old piece of quiche, on a much smaller plate with the salad.
Only a small piece of quiche had been eaten, at least the cafe could have replaced the quiche as well!!
Poor service poor quality.... Won't be back.

Had breakfast here this morning and was quite disappointing. The service was very slow, we had been there half an hour before we got a coffee. We ordered the full breakfast and it was pretty average. I’d expected more local produce and for it to be of higher quality given what the shop looks like and promotes (ethical and eco friendly), but the sausages were clearly very cheap, as was the black pudding. Unfortunately I would probably avoid returning.

Well the waitress is my new best friend, as when we arrived she told us they were between menu's so we could only order coffee and cake so the wife had cake for breakfast which made her day and mine a lot easier thank you cake lady.

Got a take away today, food was nice but ZippyD was very buggy and wouldn't let me place the order. Ketchup and brown sauce was missing from the order but otherwise food was nice.
Edit: got another takeaway today. Food arrived semi-warm 45 mins after I ordered which was disappointing. I think the regular full breakfast is better than the vegan one.
However the lavender cake was brilliant and very tasty.

Nice little cafe & shop. Incense sticks and vegan products. Gluten free and dairy free items. Shop renevations were going on inside, but the staff were very helpful. Quite delightful to see specialist food store.

I ordered a Chocolate Shards and Flowers Cake for my partner's birthday. I was disappointed with the quality of the cake. When I opened the box my excitement was gone. There was a mid long hair on the top and the decoration of the cake was not the same as on the picture on their website. We tasted the cake on the side where there was no hair. The cake was very dry and the 'chololate' cream tasted very sugary. Overall horrible cake! The delivery was promptly.

Nice place. Lots of options on the breakfast and lunch menus including a substantial vegan selection. The coffee is really good; lots of milk alternatives available. The cafe is very busy and we had to sit outside which wasn't ideal. We also had to wait over 25 minutes for mini cinnamon doughnuts which we thought was a bit long. However, they were worth the wait. We haven't been to their shop yet, maybe next time.

From the time we walked in it was warm and welcoming. Staff were absolutely fantastic and attentive. Food was just right, freshly made with local produce. It cannot get any fresher than that! We had a great experience and definitely going to be back . Highly recommended!!

Lovely fresh and wholesome food and the staff were really helpful and friendly, accommodating substitutions to ensure my daughter could have something which she suited her fussy palate and that I could meet dietary requirements. Everything is freshly made. would thoroughly recommend.
