Closed 😭😭😭😭 - Edit
I was devastated to know that one of the best vegan places I’ve been has shut. I don’t know if it’s temporary but I really hope so. Miss my Sunday brunches there

A perfect find. - Edit
Six of us went on a reunion weekend, and could not have been happier with this find. Two of us are veggie, and all six of us cam out singing the praises of this great little cafe. Between we chose the cooked breakfast and the avocado on toast, fresh juice and smoothies. All delicious. Friendly staff, great atmosphere. Will go again, a lovely place for a Sunday brunch.
Read morePros: Tasty, fresh food., Friendly staff, Cosy decor and atmosphere.
Cons: Noticed a few people having to wait for tables, Get there early on a Sunday

Cute cafe with delicious food - Edit
Tucked away from traffic, this vegetarian cafe offers so many vegan options, it was hard to choose! I went for the Zoo breakfast and it. delivered. See photos to see what I mean.
Read moreEating outside also means being surrounded with lovely plants and flowers. My oat flat white was good too.
So happy to have found this place. The staff is really nice and smiley and service is quick - I will definitely be back!
Pros: Fully vegetarian with lots of vegan options, Many plants and flowers, Friendly and efficient staff
Cons: Can't think of any!

An exceptional cafe hidden down an alleyway - Edit
Everything on the menu is Veggie/Vegan or can mostly be adapted to vegan, and it's all utterly beautiful! My personal favourite is the quiche, which comes with plenty of salads. Top quality coffee and teas. Staff are always friendly, and willing to recommend dishes. The Zoo is also dog friendly, but dogs cannot go upstairs in the cafe.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options , Friendly and helpful staff , Cosy environment
Cons: Gets very busy at lunchtime

Beautiful cafe - Edit
I had gorgeous food here, they attempt to offer veganised alternatives and my shakshuka with avocado instead of egg was inspired and very delicious. My only complaint would be that the cakes weren't vegan. Waaah. I love cake!

Just the best! - Edit
My family and I have visited Zoo more times than I can remember and the food has always been delicious and well thought out, the portions are VERY generous and it's great value for money. The cafe had a huge refurb this year and so looks fantastic inside and out. The staff are some of the friendliest you'll come across. Can't rate this place high enough!

Really cute little place, went today for this first time and had a vegan breakfast, it was lovely! They said pretty much everything can be made vegan on the menu so I can't wait to go back and try some more.

As one of the only vegan places to eat in the city, this is a great little casual cafe. Staff really friendly and helpful when it came to allergens etc and nothing seemed to be too much trouble - even picking out cucumber from the salad to suit our needs! Enjoyed a homemade soup and a giant vegan burger. Really cheap - Worth popping by if you're in the area!
Read morePros: Veggie options, Vegan options, Cheap
Cons: More gluten free options

Do you mean one of the few? It certainly isn't the only vegan place (though unfortunately Hitchcock's is open only in the evening).

Great spot for vegan lunch in Hull - Edit
I made a couple of visits to this place in the same day. Hidden off the main street, with a lovely sweet coutyard that would be great in summer, this is a surprisingly spacious venue with a mishmash of cosy furnishings. Quite an extensive venue. Some good vegan options. Good cake!
Read morePros: Cosy venue, Lovely staff, Great puddings!

Lovely Cafe! - Edit
It's great here for veggies and vegans, whether it's just the cake or for a full meal (the soya banana milkshake is to die for!) and staff are friendly too. Would highly recommend.

Ok food but some a bit pricy for what it is - Edit
I try to support vegie cafes and restaurants as much as can. I cannot understand why vege places in Hull have to be so (how to put this politely) ... rustic. I had the vege burger and asked for it to take away. It was very tasty and would get it again but £4.50 for a midweek lunch (not incuding a drink) is expensive to me and for a weekend treat I would tend to go somewhere a bit smarter and comfortable. Would be nice to have a smaller and cheaper lunch take away menu, sausage rolls, egg/sausage butties etc.
Read morePros: tasty, fully vegetarian, good choice of cakes
Cons: pricy for what it is, needs a smarter location

Great Cafe, Friendly Staff - Edit
Following numerous visits, I thought it only right that I finally write a review! The menu at Zoo is a varied typical cafe menu incliding a great range of coffees, teas, smoothies, soup,breakfasts, burgers, mezze, burritos. jackey potatoes etc. There is a great selection of cakes which can be had with vegan ice cream.
Read moreI had the veggie burger with onions and hummous. The hummous is delicious, tasting that good it has to be home made, the burger itself was tasty and filling.
i then had a smoothy, which was as yummy as you would expect, followed by vegan chocolate fudge cake with vegan icecream.
The prices are incredibly good eg. burger £4.50, cake £2.20 with ice cream.
The staff were accomodating, and took the time to talk us through what was vegan. When i asked for a black coffee they were also quick to offer soya milk (believe me ive been to loads of vegan friendly places and they never have it). I left (my previous visits were over a year ago due to work) thinking i will definately visit again, so a week later here i am! (well i cant remember menus normally!)
highly recommend a visit, the best vegan/veggie cafe in hull by far.
Pros: Staff Friendly, Excellent Value, Menu Choices
Cons: Hard to Find - hardly a con though.

Great Cafe!! - Edit
I visited Zoo cafe earlier this month and was very happy with my experience there. There were a few vegan options on the menu- I had the vegan burger.
Read moreIt was great value at £15 for both me and my partner to eat and have one drink each.
The cafe has a laidback atmosphere.It's somewhere you could go and meet your friends or take a laptop to do some work on or sit and read. (there is some comfy seating there)
The staff were lovely- my boyfriend wanted houmous on his burger and the lady who served us popped out for some more lemons so she could make it fresh- nothing was too much trouble.
We will definitely return when next in Hull.
Pros: great value, laidback atmosphere, good food
