Lovely breakfast

Went here for breakfast and had the sweet French toast - it was topped with lots of fruit and syrup and was totally delicious. Really chill atmosphere in here and the staff are super nice. Prices reasonable too - highly recommend!

Lovely community place with local vibes. We had a couple of their famous big breakfast fry-ups which were more than ample and contained delights such as home-made black pudding and potato pancakes. Fair value at £9.50. The vegan cakes looked fantastic but we had no room. Good luck to this great vegan hangout.

Pros: Friendly , Community atmosphere

Full English fry up

I found the place on google and i was convinced they were just a regular place with some vegan options, but then I asked and I’ve been told the place was completely vegan and that blew my mind. I got the full english fry up and huge cinnamon bun, but trust me the menu was incredible. The food was out of this world and made me so happy, I also had two of their chai lattes. Definitely a best one!

Happy Breakfast!

Lovely to find fully vegan cafe with imaginative menu, although I couldn't resist having trad fry up, which came with slice of interesting "black pudding," potato scone and home made hash brown. We were all very happy, and returned later for al fresco coffee on pedestrianised street seating. Six stars!

Great cafe

Small vegan café. Nice food at a reasonable price. Menu is basically vegan versions of stand British breakfast cafe options. Limited outdoor seating . Although may just be because of covid. Works with their principals. Eg no paper towels. But provided Napkins

Pros: Good cafe food at a reasonable price , Nice atmosphere , Tables not crammed in

Cons: More options that aren’t fake meet would be good

Great breakfast. Great service.

The breakfast was great. The service was on point and all sorted quickly. Even a nice selection of cakes to choose from.

Lots to choose from on the menu too. The deal with a soup was a great touch.

Only negative I would say is that the toast was dry and i don’t think I got asked about any sauce or I missed them asking if I wanted any.

Pros: Lots of vegan options. , Quick service. , Reasonably priced

Great Little Cafe!

We went to Serendipities for breakfast because we wanted to try vegan Scottish breakfast. We got the Breakfast Fry Up and it was amazing! Our friend got the Mighty Bagel and enjoyed it very much. We also got lattes and they were some of the best we've ever had. The cafe was nicely decorated and the service was lovely.

Made up for bad first experience

I went here several times and was very satisfied with friendly service and many options, all vegan. I recommend breakfast roll with sausages and haggis beans, or sweet French toast.
The first time I went I ordered "creamy" curry that was terrible - extremely spicy, dry, "old" and with side of burnt potato wedges that were also very spicy. Could not even finish it and was super disappointed.

100% recommended place in Dundee

The food is delicious, the coffee is very good and the vegan breakfast is amazing. The venue is very welcoming and has a really nice atmosphere. The cafe is a social enterprise and works giving back to the local community in a lovely way.

I've been here a couple of times when visiting Dundee and have had breakfast sitting in or lunch for takeaway and I'll definitely keep going back.

Pros: Delicious food, Lovely staff, A very nice inclusive venue

We arrived at Serendipities later than expected as we got distracted on our first trip to Dundee by some of the other delights it has to offer. The staff still welcomed us warmly and it was great to be able to choose anything on the all vegan menu. A cafe with a heart ♥️

Pros: Fully vegan , Very welcoming , Community spirited

Cons: It’s in Dundee , I’m not in Dundee

Delightful find

After going into the three local Greggs 7 times in search of a vegan sausage roll, I looked elsewhere and found Serendipities. Their vegan black pudding and sausage bagel exceeded all my expectations and I was surprised to find tins of olive paste for sale, something I miss - coming from Greece and which I have looked for in many a UK supermarket without avail. Maybe it was meant to be that Greggs had no sausage rolls today :3

Pros: Delicious food that's otherwise hard to find, Relatively cheap and fast for the quality , Friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere

Cafe with a conscience

This cafe has thought of it all- all vegan menu, cruelty free, social enterprise, training/employing people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health difficulties, inclusive…
It was great seeing how encouraging the staff were to trainees and seeing their skills and confidence grow in the short time we were there. We had the breakfast fry up and breakfast quesadilla, which were great

Pros: All venu menu & cruelty free , Inclusive to all , Social enterprise, gives back

Loved it

Loved coming here for breakfast/ dinner- lovely crafty atmosphere and a social enterprise doing good. Massive menu to choose from. Breakfast great, even a lite breakfast pie! Which can be a meal w garlic bread and salad. Quirky touches. Cakes came, v generous slices! Mmm

Pros: Menu clear and extensive , Supporting community , Book swap

Cons: Someone else left as service can be a bit slow
