One of our favourite Vegan cafes - full stop!

Lovely people. Consistently excellent coffee -try the maca mocha- very nice variety of sweet and savoury dishes ALL made from scratch; including the bread and kimchi and open 7 days a week. Rohan and Shirley put in so much effort and love into this cafe that they deserve every success going. If you're serious about good vegan food at very good prices then eat here.
If we had this in our home city of Edinburgh; which is spoiled for vegan & vegetarian choice it would be a regular haunt for us. A nice calm space, unhurried and friendly. It seems very popular for takeaway salads for local office staff and I'm sure that not all customers are vegan or vegetarian - it's simply that the food and drinks are so consistently top quality & value for money.

Nicely located in the city centre - I had the delicious breakfast wrap with scrambled tofu and baby potatoes which I couldn’t say no too

Very popular place on Saturday mornings with the locals

Friendly people, good food

We had a nice pit stop here complete with cold beverages, sandwiches and a dessert! The owners were very friendly and had good recommendations for other vegan options in the surrounding area.

Awesome food and good prices

I was unaware this place even existed until this morning, so we decided to try it out. I had the nachos and wifey had the fried mushroom pizza. Both were really good and fabulous smoothies as well. Loads of flavour and fresh ingredients.
The prices were better than we expected too, highly recommended and I hope we will be going back soon - there's a lot we haven't tried yet! #Veganuary

Delicious extensive range

Everything is vegan with a delicious extensive selection of salads, muffins, scones, pies, burgers and all gluten free. Such a relief to find a vegan cafe where I could eat everything. Thank you. Hope you keep shining and spreading the love.

Delicious vegan gluten free food

Dragonfruit Cafe seems to have upped their game since splitting from Palate Wholesome. I went there recently for brunch and had the chocolate chip pancakes, with maple syrup. It was also covered in a berry sauce and topped with cinnamon, with some non-dairy cream and strawberries on the side and it was absolutely delicious. Also ordered the very berry smoothie which was quite filling by itself.

The cafe's location isn't too exciting with the outdoor seating being very limited, but it's in the town center with easy access parking and their pricing is crazy good.

Love these guys, and long may they stick around.

Drangonfruit cafe

I had the ice tea and TRV
We had nachos and a savoury pancake.
It was all nice. I really recommend the TRV it has a little hint of seaweed which is really nice.
