Very good and friendly

I had a delicious sandwich on a table outdoor and, despite the traffic, I spent a pleasant lunch time with my friend.
I drunk a tea and the waitress proposed me to refill it by water to not waste the tea portion. Clever, logic and very friendly.

Pros: Friendly staff, Good sandwich choices, Sunny outdoor

Cons: But on a busy street corner

High price, uninventive food and freezing cold

We were very excited to find out there was another vegan coffee place in Brussels and as usual we checked it out. The pros: cozy and relax environment, banana bread and the croissant were really good. The cons: EUR 4.50 for a micro-cup of oat milk with spirulina served lukewarm (similar prices for hot chocolate), despite being full with people the room was freezing cold and even with our coats we were not comfortable, we didn't eat it but we saw the avocado toast for EUR 9 on other tables completely overpriced. Please readjust the heating, recalibrate some of the prices of your offerings or increase your hot (hot not lukewarm!) beverage portion and we will be happy to go back.

Pros: croissant

Cons: excessive price for the offerings, super cold temperature & hot beverages lukewarm, coffee not great

Great breakfast & Sweet Options

Came for breakfast, got what I wanted. Tasty scrambled tofu and a nice smoothie. Ended up staying for coffee and Pain au Chocolat, very enjoyable.

Pros: All Vegan (confirmed with staff), Good choices for smaller breakfasts, Nice sit down atmosphere and great staff

Cons: Food is a little more on the basic side

Brussels style

Brussel needed a vegan place like that to be taken seriously on the vegan international stage. But all of this in the Brussel Hipster style of the neighbourhood. You will feel hom but Belgian style.
Local products, original ideas, all for comfort food and nice people !

Great food, cozy but long waiting times

The food is great and they seem to care about animal rights. Some things seem quite pricey while others do not. Might be depending on what ingredients they produce themselves.
Plan a lot of time when eating there or even going for a drink (might be totally depending on day/time of day). You can easily wait up to 30min for a drink if there are a few other people who just ordered something.

It felt really cozy to just sit there. Would be great to go there and read a book or work something (a lot of other customers did that).

Pros: Everything vegan, care about animals

Cons: waiting times

Cute little vegan cafe

Relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff and a great choice of coffee and vegan cakes. We had sandwiches with homemade seitan and a curried soya mix. Very fairly priced, worth a visit.

Pros: Decent food, Relaxed atmosphere, Accommodating staff

Cons: Not central

Endroit cosy

Endroit charmant, avec une éthique.
Gâteaux très bons, service agréable mais tout de même un peu cher.

Je note sévère car me refiler des muffins vraiment immondes au goût en guise de récup', ça ne passe pas

Pros: Tout vegan, Endroit charmant

Cons: Un peu cher

Cute little cafe

We went for breakfast at around 10.30am and although they had already ran out of pastries, I really enjoyed this place. It’s cute and cosy, and the coffee was excellent! I would definitely go back to try their lunch options.
We ended up having a peanut butter & jam toast (can’t beat it, the bread was really nice) and a chocolate chip muffin. The waitress was really nice as well and spoke excellent English!

Pros: All vegan menu, Good coffee
