I was overjoyed to find this place

(Worth 5 stars, but only 4 allowed for non-vegan places.) Organic vegetables, snacks and packaged goods, plus a cozy café with a woodstove in one section, blankets provided for the cooler section. Vegan menu items included a daily special of lasagne, pumpkin soup-of-the-day, salad, hummus and burger. The lasagne was delicious: zucchini, mushrooms, etc., with fresh herbs and fresh tomato sauce. It was accompanied by a good salad with spiralized beet and carrot, cabbage, radish, potato salad, lettuce and a nice vinaigrette. I enjoyed the iced coffee with macadamia milk and vegan chocolate ice cream.
There are even some shelves of secondhand books in at least two languages.
(I was travelling with a bunch of omnivores and was thrilled to find such good vegan options for our lunch stop in Knysna.)

Pros: really good vegan options

Great Food

We went for breakfast at 9am on Monday. They weren’t restocked yet after the weekend but the food we ate made up for that, delicious. Amazing venue, if you are in Knysna this place is a must visit

Pros: Great food, Wonderful venue, Nice people

Cons: Don’t go on Monday morning before they restocked

Gem of the Garden Route

Amazing!!!! It was such an absolute delight to find a place with great vegan options. I would go there everyday if I could. The tomato sauce is especially exceptional. The almond cappuccino is the best I have had and the Apple strudel (vegan and SUGAR FREE) is an absolute treat! Highly recommend!

Pros: Lots of delicious vegan options- clearly labeled , Phenomenal Apple strudel, Almond cappuccino is best I have had

great food and nice courtyard seating

It's a little hard to find (tucked away behind a store for kitchen supplies) but then we were surprised to find a nice cafe with outside seating in a pretty courtyard. Some vegan options on the menu. I had the sandwich with grilled vegetables which was really yummy. My husband took the vegan burger with salad (in this case it comes without the bun and wasn't totally convinced. Imthinkmhemshould have got it with the bread to get the "real burger feeling". We also had great soya latte and really enjoyed the experience.

Wonderful!

I used this wonderful app to find a restaurant in Knysna that had vegan options and I was not disappointed. This little gem was a delightful surprise. So many vegan options including burgers, lasagne, salads, sandwiches... all vegan! They also have kombucha and kefir drinks. Everything was delicious and I will definitely be back!

Beautiful place

I came in only to have a dessert and to do some work on my computer. The staff was very friendly and even got me an adapter to charge my computer. They know what vegan means and have amazing vegan ice-cream and strudel. Unfortunately, I didn't try other vegan foods on the menu as I had eaten before going there. I especially liked their environment-friendly way of drying hands after using the toilet - you have a clean small towel just for one use which is later washed and used again.

Pros: friendly staff, beautiful environment, environmetaly friendly
