Many options, inexpensive lunch

I was happy to see that this cafe has a ton of vegan options, very clearly marked. I had the vegan frittata, lentil beet salad, and green salad. The frittata was generously portioned, and fresh - but felt a bit dry, and I had expected a warm dish. Lentils and beets were good. I don’t think I’d seek out this meal, but I’m really impressed that the Natural History Museum is taking the environment seriously by offering vegan food and treats!

Pros: Inexpensive , Lots of food - good value , Convenient to 2 museums

Cons: Frittata could have been more flavorful and tender

Nice salads and vegan options

Went to this cafe inside the National History Museum. Unfortunately their sandwiches were sold out even before 1pm, but they had nice salads and Vegan Fritata and Goat Cheese Quiche.
We choose a salad and the Fritata. The salad was very good. The fritata a little dry, but tastefull.
They don't charge you extra for the plant based milks for your coffee, but they unfortunately ran out of coconut milk when we were there.

Pros: Vegetarian based, Vegan options, No extra fee for plantbased milk

Cons: Runs out of stuff before the end of the day

Awful

Was excited to try this vegan cafe attached to an exhibit in Oxford Natural History Museum about meat consumption and the future of our planet. Unfortunately it turned out to be one of the worst cafe experiences I have ever had. We ordered a sandwich, vegan quiche and salad, two soy cappuccinos and a croissant. The sandwich was so stale we couldn’t eat it, the croissant was so hard even my three year old said it was too dry and refused to eat it, and the quiche was soggy, cold and tasteless, not to mention the salad which was huge chunks of veg in a tasteless dressing. The coffees had about three quarters of the cup full of cold froth and a bit of bitter coffee in the bottom. We finished absolutely nothing we ordered and it cost us over £35. If the food wasn’t enough to put us off, the standard of food hygiene of the staff finished us off. The guy was wearing a big winter coat as if he was a customer just rocked up for a drink, using his bare hands to swap between using his phone and throw pieces of quiche onto the plates. The lady had her hair down, kept touching her hair and face with her hands and then serving bare handed, no hand washing in site from either of them. To top it off they were both eating, talking with their mouths full over the open bowls of food and generally seemed to have absolutely no care for food service and hygiene whatsoever. The guy put a hot cup of coffee down in front of my three year old which is dangerous in itself. We walked away hungry, disappointed and confused. Surely a cafe meant to promote plant based diets would make an effort to be good. Total waste of money.
