Great labelling

Great views over the beach and good vibes inside. Menu well labeled for both vegan and gluten free options. We shared the nachos and the Japanese bowl. Both were great plus some non alcoholic options.

Pros: Good menu labelling , Tasty food

Cons: Could always do with a few more options

Lovely breakfast with a view

Lovedddd my vegan breakfast. You could tell everything was made fresh and was very tasty. Only sad part was they forgot the beans 🥺

Brilliant

2 vegans, 1 vegetarian and 1 carnivore. All had a delicious meal. There were plenty of vegan options. Thank you for giving us good wholesome vegan food at the seaside. Dog friendly.

Tasty Surprise!

Just left after a tasty meal ( Panko Fried Aubergines) and mix of salads. Satisfying choice of vegan fare. Got to Lyme, checked on Happy Cow for nearest place to eat , and it was right behind me! Wasn’t expecting a seemingly typical beachside restaurant to offer such choice. Highly recommend it!

Pros: Good choice, Great location , Friendly & welcoming

Cons: The coffee cup was a bit small!

What a view!

Had a lovely breakfast at Swim. So big I couldn't finish it (which is rare for me). Friendly and efficient service, and a great view out to sea. Endless entertainment watching the waves and wild swimmers!

Lovely place on the sea front

There were a couple of vegan sides and mains on the menu. I went with the nachos (sharer but I ate as a main meal) and it was enormous, with loads of avocado and refried beans on. It was yummy! Wheelchair accessible.

Surprisingly good!

We had the vegan nachos which were actually really good. A little heavy on the jalapenos but nicely presented, delicious and good value. A nice place to sit right on the sea front, either on the terrace or in the spacious inside area.

Pros: Some nice vegan options, Dog friendly, Terrace or inside seating area both with sea views

Cons: A few too many jalapenos!

Lots of interesting options

I had the nachos and my son had the burger. Very tasty. They also had some interesting salad bowl options which is unusual for a non vegan specific restaurant.

Pros: Lovely setting overlooking the sea, Dog friendly inside, Healthy options and treat options!

Tasty vegan food with a good service

My wife and I shared some vegan nachos and had a vegan burger each. The burgers were lovely, the chips had a really nice level of crispness to them, but the natchos were probably the best I've ever had.
The natchos themselves were just standard crispy triangle natchos, but the range and quantity of toppings was the best I've ever had for natchos (vegan or not). If you look through the reviews, my wife has done one too and she's posting a pic of the natchos.

Pros: Nice range of vegan options , Fantastic vegan natchos with great toppings , Outdoor area and allows dogs inside and outside.

Cons: Not exclusively vegan/vegetarian

Tasty meals by the sea

Really tasty and massive vegan nachos with refried beans, vegan cheese, guacamole, tomatoes and coriander etc.
Vegan burger and chips was great too. We sat outside along the seafront which was lovely. Friendly staff.

Pros: Tasty food

Love it here

There is lots of vegan options and food is really good! They allow dogs which is great and one of the reasons we go there! Although you can’t book on the day & the booking system isn’t great. It got our booking wrong quite a few time and you can’t call as they don’t answer their phones!

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Allows dogs , Great taste food

Cons: Can’t book on the day , Gets busy , Booking system not good

Lovely, fabulous location!

A few good vegan options, I had rainbow carrots and butter beans with salsa verde...really healthy and filling. Burger quite good, a bit dry of a dry Patti though. Violife cheese used which I don’t like so just a warning to others if you’re the same as me. Nachos good but could do with some vegan creme fraiche (oatly!)

Pros: A few good options

Cons: The menu doesn’t always state vegan

Great place to eat and chill out

Eaten here a few times now! The nachos and burger are very tasty and even better with the sweet potato fries! The tacos are also nice but very small! Very relaxed atmosphere too so a good place to go with friends or on a date!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff, Relaxed atmosphere

Cons: Little pricey
