Nice little coffee/desert cafe attached to an art gallery/music venue. When we visited they had at least 4 vegan options on the bottom shelf. We got a fudge espresso torte and an almond cake. Both were exactly as WE like it, dense and not too sweet. Also have many nondairy milk options for their coffee beverages.
For a place that advertises having vegan desserts, I was surprised to find that they had nearly no selection of vegan items. They only had two options: chocolate truffles (two huge platters of them) and one slice of a raw cake. They did not have any vegan baked goods. In contrast, they had five shelves plentiful with non-vegan desserts. It was surprising that an establishment advertising vegan desserts on their website would have such a paltry selection. I hope this place increases their vegan offerings and improves the variety but at the time of this review (Jan. 2022) they seem to be over-promoting their vegan-friendliness. However, if you like chocolate truffles, you're in luck here.
The customer service was terrible too. The shop was unstaffed when I walked in. Someone meandered in after 4-5 minutes. It turned out that I had passed him just outside the door where he had been socializing as I walked past him into the shop. When he walked in, there was no apology or even eagerness to help.
If you're looking for vegan sweets, I suggest Pink Elephant down the street. They have a good variety of baked goods and excellent customer service.
