Really great little cafe in the heart of Leeds. It doesn't matter if you're not vegetarian or vegan, the food is delicious and inexpensive. We had the vegetarian breakfast and the chilli hot dog, which were both really good. Service was quick and friendly despite how busy it was. Highly recommended ...

I really love this place. It has a huge vegan/vegetarian menu with an entirely vegan specials board which changes frequently. The food is great - I had the chilli dog and it was absolutely delicious. The staff are also friendly and the atmosphere is super chill. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting veggie/vegan food in Leeds

Delicious food, friendly staff who let us change our minds once ordered. Although as a meat eater I did feel guilty ordering diary milk. My sister had the vegan breakfast which looked delicious, although I don’t get tofu scramble (texture wise) and I had the jackfruit. Surprisingly taste and texture. The sticky toffee pudding was incredible. I would come back again, especially for the pudding.

We had a lovely meal in this little gem. Amazing food options for vegans and vegetarians. The jackfruit was really tasty and the ish and chips very nice too. It was great to discover such a hidden gem and would recommend the restaurant. Shame I was too full to be able to try the churros or the vegan dessert.
