Nice little spot but not fully vegan - Edit
Went for the vegan pancakes and they did not disappoint. However, I was surprised to see cartons of cows milk on display and cows milk as an option for all of the drinks. I didn't look in detail at the food menu to see how much is vegan or not. The pancakes were titled Vegan Pancakes.
Read morePros: Nice pancakes and drinks, Cute cat postcards and other household items sold

Decent food but mediocre service - Edit
Went there with my friend last time and we’ve both ordered a drink and a cake. They taste pretty nice, but then the server (a woman) just kept rushing us to finish and meal so we couldn’t really enjoy our meal:(

Feels like home...the pancakes are a MUST HAVE - Edit
I had a mediocre experience at this place before, but I came back for a late afternoon lunch today and it was INSANE. The all day breakfast was so generously portioned, the yuba scramble was my favorite! The truffle cream cheese was incredibly aromatic, and the avocados were also of top quality.
Read moreBut the REAL STAR of the show was the sea salt almond butter pancakes. GOD DAMN. The crunchy nutty goodness spread on top of the fluffiest vegan pancakes in town...the butter melting on top....the huge dollops of coconut whipped cream.....the absolute. best.
Will definitely come back again and again and again.

cozy vegan cafe - Edit
I tried their banana pancakes. The texture was a bit chewy, which I wasn't expecting, but it tasted good. Typical of small Hong Kong places, there isn't much seating, but the atmosphere is cozy.

A little disappointed - Edit
There were no customers when I arrived but still empty plates on the table... I ordered the pancakes and whilst they were okay there was too much cream. I was expecting better from this place but willing to try it again sometime

Bad service - Edit
Bad experience there, nasty service by the female server. Rushing to ask us to order, eat and leave ASAP.
Read moreWe shared that the service is little lacking, their reason is that they don’t have any service charge, and they don’t serve anyone, even if u r like any other regular customers, such a mind blowing service standards.
Plus they can’t even make a proper coffee.
Cons: Service attitude , Bad coffee

Food tasted good but too expensive. - Edit
This place was disappointing! We were happy with our food, the flavours were good, but the portions were too small. We ordered Vegan Breakfast and it was on a small plate. You get beans, some kind of shredded carrot, some cabbage (I think) sautéed with a cheese sauce. Also get half a bagel and a very small dollop of cream cheese. This came on a small wooden plate. We ordered two of these and cost 360HKD. That is very expensive. I would have to disagree with the $$ price rating on here, as it should be $$$. The food itself tasted good but cannot return as the value for your food is not there.

Disappointed - Edit
Extremely small portions, even my children of 6 and 10 years old had to fill up elsewhere even after dessert...
Read moreExtremely expensive considering meals don’t even begin to fill you up... also, coffee is bland.
Food is so-so... blueberry tofu cheesecake looks awesome but taste just like a block of tofu with blueberry sauce on top!!!... bagel is good tho.... waiting time is ridiculous.
Have no reason to return.. too many other good options around at reasonable prices.
Pros: Bagel
Cons: Expensive , Tiny portions , Looooooong waiting time!

Great little cafe - Edit
I found this place using the app. The food selection was limited but interesting. I had the miso noodles, which were simple but tasty and filling. The drinks, which you can get stand-alone or as part of a set, seem great. My Vietnamese coffee was amazing. The space is small- two tiny tables that seat four people in total, plus around 10 bar stools. The vibe is nice however, feels like a great place to work or just veg out (no pun intended).

Holy Moses this was delicious! - Edit
I had a chia pod, kombucha, and a vegan lasagna, which might I add was thee best lasagna I’ve had much less a vegan one! So super impressed. The place is a bit hard to find, here are some steps up from Hollywood Rd and it is up there on the right. Tad expensive but definitely value for money and delicious food! I will so be back!!
Read morePros: amazing food!

Fantastic truffle cheese bagels - Edit
A lovely small cafe with fresh food, also has a selection of natural cosmetics and body products. I had a truffle cheese bagel which was delicious and the food ordered by other customers looked awesome as well. Recommend for a chilled out tea and a snack.

Ok but not great - Edit
Have only tried their drinks which are just average. Very shocked to find out they are selling non-vegan items!!! I'd have expected all items to be vegan since this is a vegan cafe!

overpriced and overrated :( - Edit
Paid a lot of money for an all day breakfast and an iced caramel latte. The portion was small and I had to wait a while for it. The coffee came after the meal was served. It was supposed to come with a bagel and a salad, however, I received half a bagel and some shredded carrots with the rest of it. The butter that came with it was nice but I couldn’t really praise anything else. It was very sub par, as was the coffee, which was far too sweet. A shame really as I was really looking forward to having a local spot. Picked up some Happy Cow ice cream from here which was a plus though.

Cute fairtrade vegan cafe - Edit
Small, cosy fairtrade cafe with variety of teas and coffees and an interesting selection of food (vegan breakfast, bagels, noodles, cakes, happy cow ice cream).
Read moreTried a lovely almond vanilla latte. I found the coffee too strong; the waitress happily added more almond milk and black sugar.
I tried two vegan cakes - vegan fruit cheesecake tart and coffee tart. I was excited after many photos and reviews to try the cakes but wasn't blown away, and found the pastry average... Probably wouldn't order those again, and would try something else instead.
They have a policy of vegan food. At the time of this review, all their products on sale were vegan (lip balms, creams, locally made soap bars, incense sticks, nut butters) although they said they may stock non-vegan items in the future, as their priority is fair trade over vegan. They have removed the wool brushes Stevie makes reference to in his review.
Address is technically Hollywood Road, but you have to climb two short flights of stairs up to reach.

Ohm, Hong Kong - Edit
They claim to be all-vegan but were selling wool fibre brushes. They don't give straight answers when asked about their on going policy of supposedly being all vegan.
Read moreLimited cooking facilities & choice. They can heat small packets of noodles but not much else. As per other reviewers, it's overpriced, small portions.
I'd rate this place lower than 2 if HappyCow would let me. They can sell what they want. When someone gets rumbled for not being what they claim and then they avoid straight answers to questions, that doesn't cut it for me.
Updated from previous review on 2017-08-04
Cons: Not what they claim to be, Owners play on words rather than straight answers

pretty disappointed - Edit
Before going there, I read all the comments and I saw all the pictures here... I was ready to try some nice vegan cakes... but they just had two pieces of cakes which were not appetising at all. They didn’t look fresh so I didn’t try them. I had a smoothie and they had just banana or fig options!! I don’t think I want to come back again... it was not what I thought
