Very average food tried nachos, salad and burger

Location is nice central for walking, but parking is a problem. On a pedestrian street by square. Staff is friendly and pleasant. Outdoor seating is nice. Small cafe with almost pre packed fast food quality. Sorry to say even falafels in salad are below average. Had higher expectations from vegan place. Quality of ingredients is poor. Bill showed much higher prices than expected from menu. Prices were not posted anywhere. Burger patty was disappointing tasted like meat.

Pros: Vegetarian, Location

Cons: Cash only. No cards, Limited menu. No hot sauce available , Price too high for quality

Delicious food amazing staff

Vegan or not vegan? It doesn't matter, everyone can enjoy all the delicious dishes! Lots of vegan options that are seasonal so the menu changes which is a very good thing! Had the avocado toast with vegan chicken. One of those dishes you don't want to finish because it's too good. Cozy setting & very friendly staff as well, highly recommended!

Pros: Friendly staff, delicious food, Very cozy

Very good and fresh, and adorable atmosphere

The restaurant itself is lovely. Big windows, very bright. Lots of plants and cute decor. The food was delicious and felt very fresh. I had the falafel wrap and my wife the fruit covered pancakes. We both enjoyed our meals and got some cheesecake for dessert. It was a lighter cheesecake, almost like a whipped pie. Very good. All vegan.
Close to the train station as well, which was convenient as we were carrying luggage and didn’t want to walk far.

Pros: Food, Atmosphere, Staff

Lekker en gezellig!

Heel lekker gegeten! Vooraf een soepje van het huis, vervolgens lekkere wrap en zoete aardappel frietjes gehad. Ook lekkere glutenvrije opties (bijvoorbeeld avocado toast met glutenvrij brod)! Allemaal geserveerd met een glimlach.

Pros: Vooral veganistische opties , Heel vriendelijk personeel , Gezellige sfeer

Kleine porties, veel onduidelijk

Op zich was het eten echt heel lekker. Maar de porties zijn echt klein, zeker voor de prijs. Ook is het concept plantbased maar is het nergens duidelijk wat al dan niet vegan is. Er zijn voldoende vleesrestaurants waar heel duidelijk is wat vegan is. Hier staat het bij geen enkel gerecht duidelijk bij. Er staat gewoon 'feta'. Dan verwacht is dus dat het niet vegan is (want ei is ook dierlijk) Of je wordt volledig vegan, of je gebruikt een eenvoudig icoontje dat aangeeft wat er vegan is en niet. Juist bij restaurants die zeggen veel plantbased te hebben wil ik de luxe dat ik niet bij elke optie op de kaart hoef te vragen of het vegetarisch of veganistisch is.

Als ze dat verbeteren en de porties groter maken krijgen ze van mij 5 sterren.

Pros: Heel smakkelijk

Cons: Duur voor de portiegrootte , Heel onduidelijk wat vegan is en wat niet.

DELICIOUS

What a surprise! Being a vegan for 24 years it is hard to surprise me, but they absolutely did (twice now)!
I had the “taste the ocean” the first time and the “cauliflower steak” the second time: Superb combinations of ingredients and spices. You can tell they put a lot of time and effort in their dishes. The desserts varied every time and are freshly made: again delicious! And the staff is so friendly! I found my new favourite place.

Plenty of plantbased dishes for breakfast and lunch, vegan pancakes & desserts

Cosy place with an elaborate plantbased menu for (quick) breakfast and lunch. Inspired kitchen.

Pros: Moderate pricing, Well informed & friendly staff, Only one dish with eggs, the rest is plantbased

Cons: Portions could be made bigger for some people
