Never fail to impress - Edit
I love Eat Me Café - went for Valentines as I managed to get booked in last minute. Had the bean and walnut burger which is absolutely divine! Chips are hand cut and home cooked which is a rarity these days. My favourite spot in Scarborough. Also visited with a friend and enjoyed the bento box, they had the tofu salad which was apparently gorgeous

Don buri dish was very good! - Edit
An easy place to visit before a show with a few vegan options. Works well for Omni families. I’m impressed with the vegan options and the plant milks on offer for coffees. #Veganuary

Eat Me! Oooooohhhh yesss - Edit
If you want a window seat book in advance. Lots of space and not over crowded like some places in Scarborough. A super menu with lots of vegan options to choose from too.
Read moreRoti Cania £6. Having eaten this in India and Bangladesh as a staple breakfast for months on end, I’d say it tasted as good, which is amazing because it usually has egg, butter and condensed milk in it. This vegan version was flaky on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside with a buttery taste. The sauce was really good but a thick curry dal would have been better as it sticks better than a runny sauce. With two rotis, it was as great sharing plate.
EMC Baked Vegan Mac’N’Cheese £12.50 Honestly, we thought they screwed up and given us real cheese. It looked too cheesy, crispy too but melted perfectly with oil exuding from it and stringy with a cheesy aroma. It was the best vegan mac’n’cheese we’ve had. They use a mixture of vegan cheeses with a runny one inside mixed with engevita, then scheese on top. Faultless.
Spicy Asian Vegan Donburi Rice Bowl £13. A large bowl. Really nice and I like spice but it overpowered me and my partner who likes a Phall! It wasn’t a hidden depth of spice in the mouth which is tolerable, but a nasty sting to the tip of the tongue with dissipated after 10 mins. I think it was from the hot Paprika powder scattered all over it. It tasted good but too harsh.
Would I recommend. Certainly. Scarborough hasn’t enough places with good vegan options and ‘Eat Me’ would fit into any city.
Would I go back. Yes, we’re going to go back this weekend.
Pros: Vegan options in every section of the menu, Staff were lovely , Really tasty food

Been looking for a while for a good katsu - Edit
I'm back to Scarborough for the first time this year so I decided to try some new places, and I found this one on here. One minute away from the train station, really convenient, especially when I was so hungry after a long journey.
Read moreI had tofu katsu and gyozas. The katsu was excellent, the rice hada a great combination of spices that gave it a taste I never tried before, and the tofu's texture and taste were also really good. I'd definitely come here again for the curry.
Pros: Yummy katsu curry, Decent prices , Good location

Lots more choice than before & very tasty :) - Edit
Eat Me at the Stephen Joseph Theatre for 4 this evening. We tried 3 different dishes; the Bento Box, Burrito Bowls x2 & the Daily Dahl all verdicts were a resounding "Delish!". I was really pleased to see the *much* wider variety of vegan options than we'd had on previous visits, I suspect due to them properly moving into the SJT restaurant, rather than the more temporary arrangement over the Covid period.
Read moreDefinitely will be back again!😄
Pros: Lotsof vegan options, spacious & interesting venu
Cons: Only vegan dessert was ice-cream (1 or 2 scoops)

Not difficult to find- I think it’s recently moved and is now inside the Stephen Joseph Theatre. Loads of vegan options. We had quesadillas and a burger, both with great chips and coleslaw. Very tasty and big portions.

Amazing mains - Edit
Spoilt for choice for vegan mains, not so great on desserts. Not easy at some points to get attention from staff, but otherwise service was good. Trickier than expected to find somewhere for dinner with interesting vegan options, wasn't disappointed by the menu (apart from desserts). Good cocktail menu, too.

Nice, Central - Edit
Nutty burger nice (and big enough to be filling), chips that come with it delicious. The donburi tofu satay is nice but if you've not a sweet tooth then avoid, donburi tofu katsu is ok, on strong side, not sweet at all. Both dishes hammered by the Thai green tofu dish on specials board however which is excellent though twice as spicy as it needs to be. Ramen nice also. Too full for dessert. Staff lovely. Needs vegan options on kids menu. Also original venue is around corner and needs a sign on it, us non locals have no idea what SJT is.

The tofu green curry and tofu satay tin plates are simple, healthy and filling meals. Quite a good selection of vegan meals but often only 1 desert if it’s not already sold out. Book well in advance. Lovely staff.

Lovely cafe, with good vegan options. - Edit
This is a lovely cafe, in a quiet back street behind the theatre. Worth booking, but we managed to get a table by turning up at 5pm.
Read moreThe roti side dish makes an excellent starter, and the tofu ramen and veggie "balls" were both good. A nice selection of drinks, too. And we took away a nice piece of lemon and pecan sponge cake: it's nice to be able to get a vegan cake that's not flapjack!
Staff were lovely, too.
Pros: Quiet location in the centre of town., Good food., Lovely staff.

Highly recommend! - Edit
After struggling to find anywhere with a decent veggie option I was thrilled to find this place! Very close to the train station so worth a visit if you have a few hours to spare.
Read moreThe decor is quirky and cosy, and everything seemed to be very clean. There are a good selection of veggie and vegan dishes. Prices are very reasonable as the portions are very geberous. The staff were incredibly welcoming and it was a fab experience.
I will be returning whenever I'm in the area and get the chance!
Pros: Great atmosphere, Inventive burger recipes, Reasonable prices

Disappointing - Edit
We read some good reviews of the place before going but were a bit disappointed. The food was nice but my boyfriend ordered a vegetarian burger but asked for it to be vegan and then it came with non-vegan coleslaw.

Delicious - big fan! - Edit
Discovered this cafe today and am gutted I didn't find it earlier! Delicious food, gorgeous decor, cosy atmosphere and really friendly staff who will go out of their way to help. Lots of meat, vegetarian and vegan options available, I had the fried tofu ramen which was just incredible. So so good. Food was well presented as well, I couldn't stop myself having a nosey at what others were being served as everything looked so exciting! I had a delicious vegan raspberry ripple cake too - yum. Very modest prices and overall a lovely experience. Would definitely recommend.
