Coffee and Dessert Spot

Ordered lattes and cakes for an afternoon treat here and were warmly welcomed by the front staff coffees were strong and pastries fresh and flavourful.

Très bon !

Le brunch et les plats du midi sont très savoureux, je recommande sans hésitation !
J'ai eu l'occasion de tester quelques pâtisseries, les classiques comme le carrot cake ou cinnamon roll, ou plus originales notamment le flan aux épices chaï et j'ai été très satisfaite a chaque fois. Hâte de tester le tiramisu !

Lovely place

I had chocolate flan and matcha latte with rice and hazelnut milk. Everything was delicious even though I was slightly disappointed they were no longer serving savoury food.

Une bonne découverte par hasard

J'ai eu faim ce fois-là et puis je suis tombée sur ce restaurant. Bonne découverte, les formules ne sont pas cher et les plats ont de bonnes portions.

Were only here for a quick break

We only had a smoothie, cola and a pumpkin cinnamon roll. The roll was good but a bit on the drier side.

Relaxed, delicious cafe

Limited selections that change weekly. The food was so good that we went back twice. Dessert selections changed daily- we loved the tirimisu. Friendly staff and casual atmosphere. The zucchini lasagna with house made cashew cream was stand out. Don't miss this place!

Pros: Fresh made food, Great dessert selection, Great coffee

It's vegan

A bit disappointing.
The food is ok, but very basic.

Loved it!

I really enjoyed my lunch there, the food was delicious, especially all the baked goods (forgot to take a picture).
The juice I had was good and fresh, service was fast and the terrace is nice.

You have to book a table if you go there for lunch though because it’s quite small.

Cantine vegan dans le 7e ardt

Cantine vegan qui propose différentes options chaque jour. Possibilité de manger sur place ou à emporter (mais peu de place à l'intérieur).
Cuisine simple mais bonne avec des ingrédients frais. Les pâtisseries sont excellentes et originales.
Les prix sont corrects par rapport à la qualité. Le personnel est sympathique et accueillant.

Pros: Très bonnes pâtisseries , Repas copieux, Personnel sympathique et accueillant

Cons: Peu de place à l'intérieur

Je reviendrai !

J'ai été servi très vite (presque trop, je n'avais pas fini ma bière quand le plat du jour est arrivé). J'ai beaucoup aimé. J'ai trouvé mon repas varié, frais, agréable. J'ai adoré le dessert (pudding de graines de chia avec chantilly et fruits frais. Miam !) J'ai hâte de revenir.

Pros: Servi très vite., Très bon., Végétalien complet

Amazing Choc and peanut brownie

Unfortunately I got there just before they were closing and didn't get the chance to have a meal. However, I bought the chocolate and peanut butter brownie and it was really good!!

Make sure you book!

Fully booked for lunch but kind staff squeezed us in for a quick snack before the other customers arrived for which we were hugely grateful as although we could have eaten outside or in the park opposite it was a bitterly cold day. Great vegan cinnamon rolls and mini pizzas and chocolate tart.

Pros: Friendly helpful staff, Food was great, Hugely popular- hence reservation needed!

Simple tasty food

We arrived a bit too late to order lunch but they could arrange a "salad" plate, healthy, balanced yet fulfilling. Pastries are available all day though, had a nice PB cookie and a donut. Very nice staff.

Pros: Friendly staff, Tasty, Correct prices

Cons: Not for late lunchers 😅, Apparently no guest toilets

Best deserts in town !

Since I live very close, I have the chance to come here as much as I want and it’s always a delight.
To be honest, I visit most of the time for snack time so what I know the most is their cakes and sweets ! But the dishes are delicious too.
The portions are generous and flavory.
The atmosphere is nice and the staff friendly.

Pros: Sweets, Friendly staff , 100% vegan

Cons: Tend to be closed when I come by ! , Often out of options
