Vegan,not-for-profit, community gem!

I have been to the Loading Bay Cafe a few times now and feel so lucky it is there being the only vegan cafe in Windsor. They do seriously good coffee with a choice of vegan milks and the 'bacon' sandwich is amazing with it's lovely thick homemade tempeh. I am vegan but I took my non-vegan mum who equally enjoyed the 'bacon' sandwich! I have tried many a vegan cake elsewhere and am pleased to say the loading bay ones hit the mark with my children as well as me. The bakewell tart is a must and the brownie also hot the spot. Cant wait to try more from their menu!

Funky furniture and an unusual location, they have a great atmosphere and a genuine ethos being not-for-profit and also a community cafe. The staff are very friendly and I have shared some nice chats with them. They were kind enough to sports that mum would appreciate a high back chair and went and got her one. It's all about the community. The loading bay also has a dance studio round the side (which my daughter has really enjoyed and regular events/musical offerings. It's not far from town or the river really, you just have to seek it out!

Pros: Vegan only, Not for Profit, Community, good vibe, worth seeking out

Cons: Wish it was open more days and longer hours

Amazing service

Great staff, were busy and very accommodating even went the extra mile to accommodate for our annoying intolerances. Will definitely come back when visiting from Brighton and happy to support small business😄

A hidden delight

The Loading Bay is the only purely vegan outlet in Windsor at the moment (or for quite a distance in any direction), and is well worth a visit. It's hidden away on the Vansittart trading estate, so you may have to search it out carefully.

If you do, you'll be well-rewarded. It has a short but tempting menu: I had a tofu banh mi, which, with hints of kimchi and sriracha, was delicious. I washed it down with a very acceptable Citra-based pale ale; there also appeared to be lager, various ciders and coffee from what appeared to be a Gaggia machine.

The music playing in the background might have been The Sons of Kemet, but I have to admit that I'm out of touch with contemporary jazz. Whatever it was, it was well chosen. I'd go back again, but we're returning to Wales in a couple of days. Check it out yourselves!

Pros: Delicious food, Decent beer, Funky music

Amazing vegan food and service

The one and only vegan cafe in Windsor. Our breakfast consisted of a Tempeh Bacon Sandwich (Sarnie) with avocado on sourdough bread. It was amazing! The tempeh was really tasty and the bread was the most amazing bread I’ve ever had 🙌🏾
