Stellar - Edit
The team at Rise are a perfect example of true ambassadors for plant based cuisine.
Read moreThey have an extensive range of flavours and textures on a wonderfully curated menu.
Choosing which dishes to have was our only dilemma 🤔
See pics for reference.
Welcoming staff.

Great ethos - Edit
I really loved the look of this place and was really looking forward to eating here, especially finding that there was a gluten free burger on the menu. The tempeh, penaut, jam flavour combo is genius and was very tasty however it was disappointing that the gf option meant two pieces of small bread instead of a burger bun, it was served with a very cold side salad, at £12.50 it seemed not great value for money even when taking into consideration the use of organic produce etc. I wish I had ordered the breakfast or pancakes instead which looked amazing. Really like that they make things inhouse and their ethos towards healthy nourishing plant based food and not fast food. Really worth a visit and if I had ordered differently I would probably be giving it 5 stars.
Read morePros: Ethos, Flavour combos, Using organic produce
Cons: Cost of some of the dishes.

Lovely spot! - Edit
A really lovely place to find whilst in Malvern, as it's 100% vegan (it doesn't state this anywhere though, just says 'plant kitchen' so had to double check just in case) - friendly staff and tasty food, although the portion size of a wrap was very small (think meal-deal wrap size), so, I'd try a main meal next time. Filled us up nonetheless!
Read moreMy partner had the homemade kombucha which he said was great, too.
Pros: Fully vegan, Lovely atmosphere , Yummy food & drink
Cons: Very small portions for cheaper meal option

Outstanding - Edit
The menu is wonderfully diverse; one of the few places where we wanted to try everything. The format choice (wraps, omelettes, pancakes, curries), colours and flavours are worthy of a first class restaurant, let alone a modest “kitchen”. We loved it so much we ate brunch there on three consecutive days.

Nice but overpriced - Edit
I like to support independent local businesses whenever I can, but its off putting when the cost is so high sadly. Not much change from £20 for two sandwiches and a smoothie?? (Jackfruit sandwich I was told by my guest wasn't very nice). We left still hungry. I know its a small ethical vegan business, but you are competing with big chains who have got their act together on portions, taste and price. I know where Ill be heading next time, sorry😒
Read morePros: Independent, ethical, friendly
Cons: cost, portions, taste
rise.malvern
We’re sorry you had a bad experience with us. We use organic, good quality produce and nearly everything in the cafe is made in-house, which I know most big chains don’t do…. So, £17.50 for 2 people surely isn’t too bad?
Read moreWe are generous in our portions, particularly our hot food menu, so maybe a better option next time. Appreciate the feedback though, please let us know in the future on the day so we can do our best to ensure quality control for staff working.

Great find - Edit
We were trekking and needed a place to eat after a 6 mile hike. Found this place via Happy Cow and loved the ambiance. My husband really enjoyed the Earth Bowl. I tried the chickpea omelette that was good but not great for my tastes. I'd think of it more as a savory pancake than omelette. The berry based smoothie was great, as well as our mocha and hot chocolate. Decor and ambiance were great.We'd visit again!

disappointing! - Edit
It is great to have a fully vegan cafe in Malvern and I applaud and congratulate the proprietors, and the space and staff are very pleasant. I have only been there once and only tried one dish - the bbq pulled jackfruit. Contrary to menu description it was neither pulled nor marinated, just a few lumps of jackfruit (apparently straight from the tin, and neither cooked nor flavoured), with some coleslaw on a dry bun, dumped on a small plate. Of course the other dishes on the menu may be delicious, I don't know...
Read morePros: lovely cafe, pleasant and helpful staff, good atmosphere
Cons: poor presentation of dish, dish I ordered not good
rise.malvern
We’re very sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your experience. We do marinade our jackfruit every time, so not sure what you got on the day… Hopefully we will see you again for something!

yes, I will come again and try some of your other dishes, and I wish you well. I just had to comment on that dish (for your sake as much as mine), however, as it was probably a one-off. Other customers seemed to like it.
