Although it looks like a nice cafe they barely have anything vegan outside of a salad and when I asked if they could fix a sandwich they first said yes but then went actually no, it'd have to have mozzarella No real reason as to why.

I ordered a latte with almond milk and when they brought it to me, I asked if it was with almond milk, so she went to check and it wasn’t. So basically if you don’t pay attention when they make your lattes, cappuccinos, etc. you could end up with cow’s milk. Plus they were not very friendly.

Overall, if they aren't careful when making lattes, cappuccinos, etc., they could end up using cow's milk instead of the requested alternative. Additionally, the staff was not very friendly.

The menu changes with the seasons and currently includes salads, Mediterranean mezze, tartines, avocado toast, vegetable curry, and chili sin carne. They also have vegan soups available, just be sure to specify no butter with the bread. They offer healthier options compared to other restaurants in London with many vegan burger options. The selection of baked goods is limited to a blueberry muffin and chocolate cake. The food is consistently good.
