Buddha bowls are awesome!

I had a carrot cake and buddha bowl when I ate here. Buddha bowl was absolutely amazing! Highly recommend this dish with tofu and the satay sauce.

The carrot cake was also delicious but a tad dry.

They also do smoothies, milkshakes and all the usual teas and coffees. There’s plenty of seating and accommodated a large group of us with little notice.

Well worth a visit if you are in the area. And finally the staff are super friendly and helpful! Friendly welcoming staff make the place that bit extra special!😄

Yes

Tried Vemillion earlier today and I was impressed...i am not easily impressed. Firstly the friendly welcome from staff was spot on. Customer service is not a natural skill that everyone has but they certainly do. After a lengthy deliberation I opted to try the satay tofu stack and the ava go go smoothie with added protein scoop, chia and flaxseed. The tofu stack was amazing and the smoothie was nice too which had a flavour that I've never tasted before. All tasted very fresh with great flavours. I was very tempted with all the selection of cakes too. Seating in and outside. Free parking very nearby.

Pros: Friendly food, Tasty staff, Or is that the other way round!!!

Great Food

I would really recommend a trip to Vermillion, it may look a little unassuming as "just" a coffee place with some cake and snacks, but those cakes and snacks are really well done and very very tasty. We tried a cheese and ham toasty, the tofu snack, a couple of cakes and coffee and it was all very delicious, the tofu stack especially.
They have an amazing range of cakes here, including pastries and I wanted to eat all of them!
I've also had a takeaway pasty from here in the past and those are also really of note.

Fab food & fab staff

Recently custom ordered some carrot and walnut cupcakes from here for my birthday, and they were so good that my non-vegan family were singing their praises and asking for more.

In love with this place, I visit regularly and the staff is lovely, the coffee and food is fab, really nice atmosphere, highly recommend.

Pros: Friendly staff , Delicious baked goods , You can custom order cakes & similar

Brilliant fully vegan cafe.

We visit about once a month. There are often new dishes added and always different cakes. Today we had avocado and 'feta' on sourdough which was lovely, followed by some cherry pie. My favourites are the Satay tofu stack and the coronation chickn jacket potato. The staff are lovely, too. Plus, free parking!

Pros: The staff, All the food, Gifts and other things for sale

So much choice!

I’ve been here quite a few times and I’m not sure why I haven’t left a review yet. This place is bangin! I’ve never had the same thing twice as there is so much to choose from. It’s the perfect distance from home on my way back from a long ride. The prices are very reasonable. The food comes out quickly. They have a loyalty card. The staff are friendly. Not much more to say really! Try it!

Vemillion vegan cafe

I can totally recommend this amazing cafe in Chineham. We've been going for over a year very regularly. There's alot of choices of food, a lovely atmosphere and setting with very friendly staff.
We are so lucky to have this cafe on our doorstep...

Updated from previous review on 2023-08-22

Pros: Variety of food choices, Friendly staff and the look of the cafe, Outside sitting too

Cons: There should be more cafes like this everywhere, It is far too tempting to eat there, The cakes and pancakes are especially delicious 😋

Lovely coffee and cake

Stopped in yesterday for coffee and cake and was really impressed. It started off quiet but lots of customers while we were there. Coffee was gorgeous as were the cakes, great selection of cold drinks and snacks too. Next time I’ll be going for lunch too.

Pros: Great coffee, Yummy cake, Friendly staff

Great place to be!

Fantastic range of options, both savoury and sweet. Well chosen menu to attract and include everyone and all tastes. Exciting to see in such a mainstream location - deserves to do very well and I hope will encourage many who wouldn't "normally" head to somewhere vegan. I defy anyone to make it along the counter when ordering their lunch without being seduced by the cakes...

Pros: Delicious food, Nice atmosphere, Welcoming staff

Cafe in a shopping centre

Most of my points will go for daring to open a vegan cafe in a shopping centre. The banana/chocolate cake was really good but coffee not the best but still fine. Lots of cakes to choose from and savoury also.

Pros: Banana & chocolate cake

Cons: Coffee

Excellent green smoothie & Buddha bowl

Vemillion is part of a shopping complex so there are big free car parks nearby. I was breaking a journey along the M3 and can recommend it as a worthwhile detour for vegan food.

It is a modern building, clean with about 40 covers. It caters for take-away and Deliveroo.

There are paintings for sale on the wall and a selection of jewellery and cosmetics.

I opted to sit in and the service was prompt. I’d not been sat long when the smoothie arrived and, shortly after the Buddha bowl. Decent sized portions and a nice varied bowlful.

Pros: 100% vegan, Sensible prices, Good food

Cons: None

Milkshake heaven

Vemillion is a great cafe offering lots of yummy vegan lunch options. They also offer a vast array of cakes and sweet treats so come with an empty stomach! The best bit by far are the milkshakes, the biscoff and oreo are simply divine!

Updated from previous review on 2023-02-04

Pros: Lots of vegan choice, Best milkshakes, Nice open cafe

Cons: Strange location

The Best Coffee Shop!

Basingstoke's only 100% vegan coffee shop serves a great selection of cakes, savouries, sandwiches, jackets, protein bars, and even has 'Mr Whippy' style ice cream. They regularly have different cakes in their selection so you're usually in for a surprise with something new on the menu. There is ample seating indoors for large groups, couples, families, or solo visitors, and there is a lovely garden area outside with picnic style benches and tables to watch the world go by (dog bowl included, so your companion animals can join you outside). The staff are super friendly and helpful, and it is conveniently located in Chineham shopping centre, which means free parking whilst you enjoy your food and drink. Alternatively, there is a regular bus service from the town centre.
