Cosy cafe with pleasant atmosphere - Edit
The cafe offers a selection of organic vegan foods and drinks. The mulled wine was delicious but unfortunately, the waffles and hot chocolate weren’t the best - The food is quite expensive for the quality.

Interesting but good - Edit
I had the fried "vegg" and it was good. No idea what it is made of though. I can see if you aren't vegan it probably wouldn't have been great to you, definitely not like an egg but I enjoyed it. The staff was attentive and friendly to me. My food came quickly.

Very bad service - Edit
Beforehand we were super excited about this restaurant. The menu looked good and the location was great. When entering the restaurant it took a very long time before we were helped to our table. Then again it took a very long time for someone to come to take our order. The smoothies came first (which were delicious, but very expensive), then it took 1 hour for our food to come! We had ordered a focacia with vegan cheese and bacon, however the bacon was “forgotten” and the cheese was so little that it was more like a sandwich with only olives. In the end we said something about this, then we got a few loose slices of vegan bacon, while our sandwich was almost finished. With the checkout we submitted our complaint and in the end we were helped very well by the manager of the restaurant. Unfortunately for us a reason not to come back here.

Bon endroit, gaufres délicieuses - Edit
J’y suis allée deux fois maintenant; ce n’est pas mon endroit préféré mais j’aime bien le fait qu’ils ont plusieurs options vegan. Différentes types de gaufres (sucrées ET salées !) Par contre, le service n’était pas excellent et je vous suggère de prendre une table à l’intérieur plutôt que dehors sur la rue chair et pain.

Okayish! - Edit
The waffles were just okay. I had them with white chocolate and dark chocolate. The white chocolate one was okay but the dark chocolate was not at all good. On top of that, the prices were high.

I wouldn't return - Edit
The food was amazing! Our plan were to visit everyday for our breakfast during out stay at a hotel near by
Read moreWe first visited on sunday 25th September, the staff were amazing, so attentive and polite
Monday 26th came... food was as delicious, but whom I assume was a female manager was awfully rude, not just to customers, but also the young lady assisting her on the floor taking orders and making drinks.
The prices being charged are higher than advertised on their menus as well!!!
It's a shame to see management treat customers also the staff this way, with working in the same industry it's heartbreaking as it's not the easiest work!
Maybe takeaway if you want to have delicious food!
Unless you want to have a feel of the trendy 'Karen diner' that are around these days

Gaufre mauvais - Edit
Je suis pas difficile mais là vraiment déception de la gaufre, on dirait qu’elle était pas cuite et n’était pas bon du tout, pas le goût de gaufre. Mais d’un cake raté. Ce qui était pas mal c’était le thé et encore, j’aurais dû regarder les avis avant car apparement tous sont déçus des gauffres. J’ai mangé une gaufre vegane le lendemain à wafflewaf, 1000 fois meilleure ! Et au même prix avec chantilly et chocolat généreusement servie. J’ai pas l’habitude d’être aussi dure mais là à fuir pour le côté vegan. Car le restau n’est pas 100% vegan.
Read morePros: Thé bon mais 4,50€ 🙄
Cons: Cher , Pas bon , Pas cuit. A fuir

A good take on breakfast - Edit
I have been vegan for a long time. I used to take my vegan cardboard burgers to friends cookouts. So I appreciate a restaurant that can give me a vegan “omelette” that finds a way to satisfy. At least for a vegan, a part time vegan would not like this.The olive tapenade and chick peas along with vegan bacon made it work. But the egg was still dense. Maybe I’m too used to Just Egg. The GF bread; surely they can find a better GF option or make it an option.

Pros: Vegan omelette, Other vegan options , Beautiful setting; warm & friendly inside & out
Cons: Expensive , Vegan Omelette decent only for a vegan , Bread - a better GF option is needed

I was not so impressed with this establishment. The waiters were very unfriendly and the food was sub-par. Not worth the price.

Heerlijke lunch - Edit
Mooie kaart, klassieke lunchopties met vegan twists. Vegetarisch, vegan en glutenvrij. De focaccia sandwiches zijn een aanrader, ze komen met een kleine portie soep (vegan) en vormen zo de perfectie portie!

Gluten-free - Edit
The waffles were a bit disappointing and tasted healthier than they look - probably bc they are gluten-free. Would be nice to have an option with gluten as well😄

Great selection of vegan items - Edit
The food here was great but moreover there is an excellent selection of vegan items. We tried the vegetable soup (with lentils), a hummus platter and a focaccia sandwhich. Everything we tried was delicious and the iced coffee was one of the best I’ve ever had!

tasty food, but beware of confusion - Edit
My wife and I liked the food at this place, to the point that we went there on two consecutive evenings. There was one bit of confusion on the second evening, when the imitation bacon for my order had run out, and the staff member offered real bacon instead. After discussion, we settled on sun-dried tomato as a replacement. She was polite and helpful throughout.
