Healthy, huge servings

I don't often go for the more wholefood plant based but they did not disappoint. the food was absolutely delicious, so flavourful and creative. The food servings are huge. I have the Budda bowl with chickpeas tofu and a number of salads, and my partner had the stuffed sweet potato. The were both very nice and filling. Definitely recommend.

Delicious, healthy, vibrant food

Absolutely wonderful place. Had a take-away one day and lunch the next. Both came quickly. Food was fresh and tasty. I enjoyed it all but especially the almond smoothie.

Friendly man at the counter/ serving. Note service charge is not added to the bill, so if you want to leave a tip then do ask to (if like me you don’t have cash for the tip jar).

Pros: Delicious healthy food, High ceiling means compact space feels bigger, Friendly

A truly magical place

Big portions of nutritionally dense food, served beautifully. The nachos had me beaten, the photos don't do justice to how filling this dish is, the refried beans are awesome. Cashew Baby Smoothie was soo creamy. Other half really enjoyed a cashew cheese toastie with a kale/spinach salad - this was a Small Plate but still a generous portion. Accessible toilet. Clean and pleasant cafe. If you have time, chat with the owner about his story, it's worth a listen. Definitely coming back here.

Pros: Healthy tasty food, Well thought out menu, Lovely vibe

Definately recommend going here.

As soon as we walked in we was greeted with a smile and he was so helpful talking through the menu. When you go I'd definately recommend the Thai buddah bowl and the vitamin me juice! You won't be disappointed. Good price and all round good service. We will definately be coming back for more

Pros: Lots of choice , Friendly service , Fresh food/drink

Nice place to eat

Popped in for a bite to eat with my girlfriend and it was quite busy so staff had to cater for us and placed us on a table next to the till which was a bit awkward for people who came up to the till to pay or to order as I felt I was in the way a lot. However I ordered the vegan burger and a juice which was the immunity boost, my girlfriend ordered Thai wrap and the vitamin me juice, the food was very nice and I would recommend the burger to anyone who hasn’t tried it already, it was very nice.

Pros: All vegan food , Friendly staff, Welcoming environment

Cons: Placed near till due to it being very busy.

“Alkalise” your body and improve your health

I’ve wanted to eat here since I moved north in November and it’ll be the first of many visits from now on.

Our first time here with a table for 5 and all sharing meant we tasted a big section of the menu (see images of the menu). Each of the portions was very generous to say the least. What amazed us all we’re the complex flavour combinations. They were slightly weird on some but they all worked and very well too.

Alkaline Nachos £10.95 - Nachos with marinated baked quinoa, topped with refried beans, cashew sour cream, guacamole, pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage. All with a smoked cashew cheese drizzle over. They were indulgent, sweeter than I’ve had before and had tangy twist too.

BBQ Tacos £9.50 - Shredded carrot in an alkaline BBQ sauce in a crispy corn shell, filled with refried beans and guacamole. Topped with pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage, served with a side salad. Best BBQ tacos in the north so far.

Thai Buddy Bowl £10.95 - Orange teriyaki chickpea tofu surrounded by, pineapple 'fried' quinoa, purple coleslaw, a thai side salad, with an almond and ginger dressing and quinoa falafels topped with mango chutney. Crazy flavours that worked really well. This was my favourite dish and I could eat this most days of the week. I’ll be back for this dish on its own.

Thai Wrap £9.95 - Quinoa and peanut butter falafels in a soft wrap with mango chutney, coleslaw and kimchi served with a thai side salad, with an almond and ginger dressing and pineapple quinoa. A mental combination of ingredients for a falafel but was amazing. Again, sweeter than I’d have imagined.

Pink Pitaya Acai Bowl - £5.50 - A fruity smoothie bowl topped with raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, banana kiwi and coconut (we held the seeds). What an amazing breakfast. A real power breakfast too.

Immunity Boost Juice £4.00 (x2) - Strawberry, pear, apple and lemon juice. Refreshing and moreish.

Tropical Sunrise Smoothie £4.50 - Papaya, mango, orange, banana, coconut, maple and cashew smoothie. It was as nice as you’d expect and none of the fruits lost their identity due to the power of another.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie £4.50 - Strawberries, banana, peanut butter, maple and lemon smoothie. Another one that doesn’t quite sound right but really does. The peanut butter was not overpowering and provided a nice earthy grainy taste and texture, lifted by the sweetness of the fruit.

A great experience and worth the wait.

Would I recommend - Ohhhhhh Yes

Pros: Wonderfully imaginative menu, Amazing flavour combinations, Immaculate presentation

Cons: Not cheap but worth it
