Great place - Edit
I'm not from the area so I only stop when I rarely pass by going to various jobs, so, I take every chance to get a quick coffee and cake. I love this place, the coffee has always been great, they use Wood St Coffee which are based on Saffron Walden. Unfortunately I naver had a meal so can't comment on this although I'm sure it's great too. Hopefully we'll do a bike ride in one weekend not that THE SPRING IS COMING!!! to have lunch here 😊

Decent a healthy food - Edit
I was really excited to visit this place as I have been meaning to do so for a while. Started a bit disappointing as when we got there, no one acknowledged us for quite a while even though it's a small space. The lady behind the counter didn't even look at us. We weren't aware that's where we were supposed to order but after a while we figured it out. We went for a daily stew and 2 slices of sourdough toast - one with scrambled tofu and spinach and one with homemade hummus, sundried tomatoes and avocado. The toasts were delicious, however the stew was a bit bland. We then order two cakes - apple and carrot ones with 2 flat whites and those were really nice. Amazing coffee too. Over all, as mentioned in the title: decent and healthy food. Would come again if we lived closer. They also offer babycinos and puppucinos. They run out of dog biscuits so Otis got a piece of toast with peanut butter and he loved it 😊

Coffee review - Edit
We got there too late to order food (I blame the clocks changing) but even though they were closing they still made us a coffee to takeaway. It was one of the best coffees I've had in a long time, and I only wish we'd been able to try their food too!
Read moreThe outside seating area was really nice, with lots of things growing too. Would definitely go again for a proper meal visit next time I'm in the area :)
Pros: Food sounded amazing with lots of varied options

First visit…but I’ll be returning! - Edit
First time visiting Ethos Brothers, after recently it finding out about it on HappyCow. After reading all of the great reviews I had to try it out, and it did not disappoint! The food was great, with enough options available to ensure I’ll be back to try them all.
Read moreI also had some of the best coffee I have had in a long time. The cakes were also all very appealing, so much so that I had to buy three to take home!
All the food and drink was complimented by friendly service and a very relaxed atmosphere. A must visit for vegans and non-vegans alike!
Pros: Plenty of breakfast / brunch / lunch options, Excellent coffee & cakes, Very friendly services and a great atmosphere.

Great little discovery - Edit
Really pleased to come across this place in an unusual rural setting with amazing smells greeting us as we opened the door! Friendly staff and delicious food. We had pancakes, excellent coffee and took away the nicest of polenta cake. Shame we don't live nearer as it seemed a great place just to hang out in.

Talk about a hidden gem - Edit
This place is amazing. It's completely hidden and as far as I could see isn't signposted at all from the road, but Google maps got us there after a visit to the nearby nuclear bunker.
Read moreBetween us we had the Buddha bowl, pancakes, Mac and cheese, smoothie and a coffee. All were first class and enjoyed by all including my non vegan, very fussy relatives.
The outdoor seating area is gorgeous, and heated.
Pros: All vegan menu, Delicious food, Good value
Cons: None

Another Secret in Kelvedon Hatch - Edit
We drove past the turning for Ethos Brothers Cafe several times. It is well off the road and has no sign up. But oh boy it was worth the hunt. The atmosphere was so friendly, the food was wonderful. I had the Macaroni Cheese and Tofu and my good wife had the Burger, both accompanied by Chai Latte. Other customers openly chatted with us and each other. Altogether the whole experience was refreshing.

Pros: Totally Vegan, Really Original menu, Very good quality food
Cons: You have to work to find the cafe!

A little gem 😍 - Edit
A great little cafe. Completely vegan. Offers a great varied menu for anything you could want from a cafe. All staff are lovely, welcoming and friendly. The tempeh kebabs and pancakes were delicious.. as were the cakes we took home for later. Also they have a little section for some awesome vegan snacks, books and goodies. Highly recommend and already can see myself as a regular there. Plus my dog was welcomed with open arms - and yes there's treats for her too 👌 what more could you want?!

Ethos brothers is the New Vegan spot to eat out.
Read moreWe love the warm friendly Vibe from all of the Ethos Family. The food is great, staff are very friendly and they change up the menu which is nice to get different variations. The matcha’s and the stew are my favourite at the moment. Children and dogs are welcome.
Great place to meet new friends and have a nice chat. 10/10. 👍🏽

Vegan hidden gem!! Amazing food 🌿💞 - Edit
Had my first trip to Ethos Brothers today and was SO impressed with the food and the service!
Read moreThis is out in the countryside in Ongar/Brentwood but really easy to get to! This cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating and a delicious range of sandwiches, paninis, bagels, cakes, pancakes and even Mac and cheese!! The best part is they are ALL VEGAN 😍🌿I went for the panini which was delicious and friend opted for the pancakes plus a delicious stash of cakes to bring home!
The staff are extremely friendly and the place has a really relaxed, fun vibe. Dogs are allowed too!!! Will definitely be going back to this wonderful place very soon!

Just relax and enjoy! - Edit
It’s so amazing to be able to walk into a place that serves entirely vegan food, outside of London, so you don’t have to present the staff with a checklist of questions about ingredients before you order! Along with the relaxed, friendly vibe, you will be spoilt for choice from the menu! My husband had challenged himself to work through it week by week but finds it hard to tear himself away from the avocado/hummus on sourdough! He did however choose the new tofu/mac and cheese yesterday, it didn’t disappoint and is his new joint fave! I find it too hard not to order the pancakes! But whatever you choose you won’t be disappointed! The ingredients are fresh, the presentation is mouth watering and the portions are generous!
Read moreEthos Brothers is a great place if you just fancy coffee and cake, again so much choice, the doughnuts are melt in the mouth and Anna’s apple cake is the stuff of legends!
We just moved from Oxford to Brentwood and are so lucky to have these great guys on our doorstep! Look forward to seeing them continue to go from strength to strength waving the vegan flag!
