The sandwiches are great! - Edit
Delicious mushroom sandwich and apparently the green thumb sandwich is also amazing. Great sourdough. The chai is ok. It comes with coconut milk. Beautiful space!

Amazing bread - Edit
Had a few great sandwiches from there. Great sourdough bread. Good smoothies and drinks. Nice vegan chocolate from their shop next door.
Read moreA lot of the non vegan options can be made vegan with cashew cheese.
Good if you need a break from Indian food.
Pros: Good bread
Cons: Wish they have more vegan deserts

ARTSY vegan options - Edit
had a lovely breakfast this morning at bread & chocolate, unfortunately their coffee machine wasn’t working so i couldn’t try any of the speciality coffees but their french press with a side of coconut milk was delightful! I had a delicious tofu scramble on top of homemade sourdough, it was to die for! definitely a very busy establishment but the service is still great.
Read morePros: clearly listed vegan options, lots of types of coffee, vegan desserts & treats
Cons: pricey

People running the show are not hospitable at all, chocolates are excellent though - Edit
Chocolates are all I liked here!
Read moreMy husband had his scrambled tofu that he was craving to try here - it was so oily that he was uncomfortable long after he ate here. I had quinoa bowl, and it really was blah. I also had a slice of cake packed to go, it had a metallic aftertaste. For all the big bucks we pay here, we expected the people to be courteous, hospitable and contribute to making it a pleasant experience. I was really disappointed on that count. Also, no vegan bread options at all at breakfast time! How difficult is it to offer sandwiches by 9 am??
But tell you what, chocolates were out of the world good!

Nice, but a little touristy and expensive - Edit
Can recommend the Spanish omelet and quinoa scrambled with tofu. Nice sourdough bread if you’re missing western food.

Really great food! - Edit
Had a lovely lunch here. The menu is very modern with items such as avocado on toast, tofu scramble, smoothie bowls and a large selection of sandwiches. My partner had the tofu sandwich with a peanut satay sauce. All the sandwiches are vegan you just have to switch out the cream cheese for cashew cheese. I had a Buddha bowl and some raw crackers and hummus. Really good delicious healthy food. Smoothies and juices available with plant milks too. They also have an assortment of pastries and homemade chocolates too. Good WiFi and you can sit outside too.
Read morePros: Plenty of vegan options , Clearly labelled menu, Healthy food

Amazing - Edit
I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a healthy break (although cakes etc on menu) from Indian food. A tad expensive by India prices, but worth it

Yum! - Edit
I accidentally stumbled across this place after nearby vegan place was closed- what a find!
Read moreI had a lovely sandwich, on delicious sourdough bread, a shake and vegan ice cream. I was very impressed.
Unfortunately, there is no toilet. As i cycled from Pondicherry, this caused me a bit of a problem.
But other than that, would highly recommend.
Pros: Vegan food clearly marked, Most things can be made vegan, Good variety
Cons: No toilet , Doesn't include tax on menu price

WHY OH WHY!!! - Edit
did I not take any pictures at this restaurant!?
Read moreThis place rocks! they're vegan handmade chocolates are to die for and the salad is really good with REAL sourdough Italian bread.
BUT! the vegan chocolate ice-cream... I mean... its unreal and out of this world! I asked how it was made and I've been told that it holds three ingredients: coconut milk, sugar, and dark chocolate. I don't understand how it can be possible? it's the best vegan ice-cream I've ever had.
If I ever come to south India again I will travel just for the ice-cream
Pros: ICE-CREAM!, CHOCOLATES!, THE BREAD!
Cons: not pure vegan, tempting non vegan croissaints , bring your wallet

Not to be missed - Edit
We had the most delicious, fresh and creative food here than anywhere we have travelled in India so far.
Read moreNo, not just India...but anywhere in the world.
Jane & Fabien are lovely hosts. The attention to detail, ethics and quality are first rate.
We went back each day of our stay in Auroville.
The breakfast smoothie bowls were addictive.
The lunch salad bowls tasty, fresh and delicious.
Coffee and cakes sublime.
Not to mention their hand-made chocolates.
Bread & Chocolate is like an oasis in the desert!
