Great hot choc & muffins - Edit
Was a joy to find this place, was so happy to see the vegan menu with so many options. Was in the mood for a hot drink & cake so didn’t try the savouries but the menu was extensive (so much more choice than other places). Had the salted caramel hot chocolate with vegan cream which was delicious, and the Black Forest gateux muffin - which was also very tasty! The service was great & they were very friendly. So good to see that they were busy!

Loads of vegan options! - Edit
Found this take away cafe whilst on holiday in the Cotswolds and it was really worth a visit.
Read moreThey have a big range of vegan bagels, baguettes, salads, milkshakes and a also few cakes.
We had variations of the smashed avo and vegan halloumi bagels. They were really good and the toast bagels we soft and very good quality.
My boy got a vegan chocolate milkshake and having tried it I should have got one too!
Great location in the centre of town, and a perfect take away to go and sit by the river with.
The two women working there were really friendly and helpful.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Delicious Bagels and milkshakes, Friendly service

Great options for veggies and vegans - Edit
Fantastic spot to grab a sandwich from to eat on the village green.I had a really tasty Haloumi and cranberry bagutte. We were pleased to see the happy cow logo and had spotted on the Vegetarian and Vegan App. It is great to find somewhere with so many options and choices of dairy free milk because who wants to drink cows milk we are people not calves!

Great amount of options - Edit
They offer a separate vegan menu with plenty of items. The mock tuna baguette wasn’t very tasty, something was a bit off (maybe the plant based tuna)

Delicious!!! - Edit
Went back three times in one day 😅
Read moreWe had a selection of baguettes - avocado and sun dried tomato, chilli jam and vg halloumi and pesto, tomato and vegan mozerella. They also made up a kid’s box for my son - just ask for vegan cheese instead of normal - with cheese, breadsticks, corn, cucumber and banana, which he was really happy with. We also got a honeycomb shake and it was incredible. Optional vegan whipped cream on top and you can choose which plant milk you have as a base.
We got some muffins to take home for later (chocolate orange, lemon blueberry, biscoff and spiced apple) all of which were demolished by my family, including my omni dad.
My son went back later for a scoop of vegan chocolate ice cream and was so happy (plus we may have got one more milkshake to share) 😅

Good vegan options - Edit
Popped in here for toasted vegan bagettes. Lots of options. Went for mozzarella, pesto and tomatoes. Mozzarella could have been a lot more melted, but might have been a cheese that just didn't melt. Tasty all the same. Friendly staff, even refilled our water bottle. Lots of vegan options and seating outside.

Oat milk cappuccino - Edit
I stopped for coffee here randomly while visiting the Cotswolds and was pleased to find they had vegan options for milk as well as vegan specialty milkshakes. I got a vegan chocolate caramel shake for my son and he was in heaven. I really appreciate having vegan options in small, independent businesses.

I’m so happy this place recognizes that some of us want to avoid dairy and meat, but don’t want unhealthy dairy- and meat-free foods. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Traveling and it’s been hard to find good food that’s healthy and delicious, meeting these restrictions.
