I LOVE PLANT!!! - Edit
This place is amazing and I fully recommend to anyone in this area of Derby. Every time I have taken my vegetarian/meat eating friends here, they have all said how nice the food is. The staff are lovely and very accommodating and the food is beautiful. They have a day menu that serves more breakfast-y items (I recommend the plant breakfast) and then they close for a couple hours before re-opening for the night where they serve mainly pizzas. They have a range of sides as well as this including cauliflower buffalo wings which are amazing. There is a wide selection of drinks available (I am obsessed with their soho juice) as well as a separate cocktail menu which is also very nice. Overall, I cannot recommend this place enough!
Read morePros: They use local produce in their food, Quite a variety of different things on the menu

Great vegan find 😁 - Edit
Friendly staff showed us the way to our table in a cute little cafe/bistro. The menu wasn’t too vast but there were some very tasty options. I went for the BLT, which was served with chips and salad. It was very tasty and value for money. We were left to our own devices and not pestered to order more drinks or puddings. It had a great atmosphere and it was a pleasure to eat there. My friend and I met there as a central point between Worcester and the Peak District. Both being vegan we were excited to have found this place. It didn’t disappoint and will be our regular meeting place from now on.

Perfect pizza and great staff - Edit
Visiting on a Friday night, the restaurant was quiet and we had no trouble getting a table, ordering a vampire killer pizza and a meatless feast, there was an offer I didn’t notice until I just looked at the receipt of two pizzas for £16, so a nice six quid saving. The pizzas were both great, the vampire killer the best of the two but on the meatless the bacon was so good, I also had a pot of herbal tea. The staff were super friendly and nice to talk to and only complaint is I wasn’t sure how to tip as there was no option. #Veganuary
Read morePros: Purely plant based , Vegan pizzas are freshly made , Decent prices
Cons: Honey tea .. not vegan ?

Need to try again - Edit
I’ve given this review four stars because the staff, service and atmosphere were top quality. However, unfortunately the food was very disappointing. The reason I’ve given 4* and not 3* is because we went on one of the specialist nights, which was fish and chips. A group of 11 went, and very few actually enjoyed the food. I will go back, and update this review once I’ve eaten from the full menu.

Amazing tasting menu - Edit
We went for the autumn tasting menu. It was amazing - everything had been well-considered. The food tasted delicious, the baked “Camembert” and pumpkin pie were particularly special. Highly recommended.

We came for Saturday lunch and had a great experience. Fairly small menu but fully vegan and an excellent drinks menu. Between us we had the cauliflower wings, doner kebab, naked burger and two versions of the plant breakfast on toast. Highly recommended!
