Tasty food - Edit
We both had a lentil and quinoa dish I think it was; kind of similar to stew with quinoa or similar.
Read moreExpensive, tasty and fairly filling.
Dessert was cheesecake and was awesome.
We drank a very expensive soft drink too.

Good but not excellent - Edit
We went out of our way to track this place down during our stay as its 100% vegan. Sadly we weren’t overly impressed. The cake and coffee here is great, however for main meals we found it limited. I opted for the quiche and salad, the quiche was tasty but for the additional £1.50 for salad I was pretty surprised to receive just a couple of limp leafs from a bag. For a vegan food place, I would have expected better. Has great potential.
Read morePros: 100% Vegan

Read morePros: Lots of vegan options (cakes and other snacks), Great selection of hot and cold drinks , Nice and chill atmosphere

Almost perfect - Edit
Great food. I had the lentil stew... but I did find out they sell quiche, so not 100% vegan. Come on guys drop that last bit!

Health focused cafe - Edit
GF, Refined suger free, organic, vegan and tasty. Do you really need anything other than that? Very nice cafe in the center of Edinburgh, beautifully served, tasty desserts, though not everyone will like them as they're refined sugar free. Also a lot of packed options.
Read moreThe oats were simple and tasty breakfast, can't go wrong with them, also served beautifully.
Snickerdoodle bar and Raspberry lemon cake are also highly recommended.
Overall, loved this place.
Pros: Healthy and tasty

Front of house letting them down - Edit
Our first time visit this venue. We found them via happy cow and were very excited to try out. We were drawn because they are are vegan establishment. On entering the decor was lovely and upon arrival of our food, we were satisfied. One small note, the mixed leaf salad was a bit sad and more of a garnish- not representative of the £1.50 price tag.
Read moreOur disappointment came due to after placing our order and returning to our seat we realised the venue offer student discount. Off our food bill this would have saved us £4, so another drink or a cake. When we returned to the till (immediately before even sitting to our table) we were told we can’t be refunded nor compensated and were told ‘next time’. This inflexibility and the manner in which it was handled, no empathy and no attempt to try to help us by any avenue as well as the lady that served us turned to a colleague and said ‘they want something free’. I think given you advertised 15% discount we are within our rights to claim this. £4 matter a lot to students.
We enjoyed the food but wouldn’t return purely due to the lack of smiles and help from the serving team. Definitely something for the owners to review
Pros: Vegan, Nice food , Lovely setting
Cons: Sombre staff, Inflexibility of procedures , Lacking warmth from staff

Healthy food stop! - Edit
This hip and trendy vegan place is awesome if you are after a quick and tasty stop for food.
Read moreThe interior is clean and fresh and so is the food. There isn't many places to sit so wouldn't recommend for more than 2/4 people unless you plan on taking away. The price is right and a soup and salad costing £8.
The soup was flavourful and tummy warming. And the salad was Dank! (in a good way) fresh and tasty dressing makes the bowl the best!
Would definitely recommend to a friend.
Pros: All vegan baby
Cons: Not many seats

Great vegan cafe in Royal Mile - Edit
Lovely all-vegan cafe with very friendly staff. Had two great oat milk lattes - lavender & blueberry and Rose & raspberry, followed by great tofu-based tortilla slices and vegan passion fruit cheesecake. Not cheap (unsurprisingly around here) but a great start to our day.
