Menu Variety and Options
Pros:
"There's a wide range of different foods on the menu, so it's great to have the choice as a vegan!"
"Can go for a coffee and cake in morning, sandwiches for lunch and kebabs, burgers etc and beers and cocktails for dinner."
"Amazing fully vegan restaurant - good all day restaurant cafe and bar."
"This place is amazing! The food is super delicious and you can expect large, generous portions."
Cons:
"The menu didn't have any basic food all the options were artificial processed vegan chicken/beef."
"Unfortunately quite uninspiring breakfast menu, where sandwiches were OK."
"Despite being a veggie a few years this was my first time going to a veggie restaurant in Newcastle. Not disappointed, will go again."
Portion Sizes and Quality
Pros:
"The portion sizes are massive and there was no way in hell I was going to finish."
"Good sized portions, you won't go hungry."
"The food is incredible: large portions, top quality, and fantastic value."
"If you're looking for a great tasting meal that is also vegan and natural then this is the place to be. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing."
Cons:
"Vegan BLT Ciabatta sandwich was very dry and the coleslaw was dry bits of what seemed like old cabbage and carrot, no dressing."
"The veggie lasagne was a molten lava of melted cheese sauce with little else, brought to mind what the veggie option of a service station in the 70s would offer."
Atmosphere and Decor
Pros:
"The atmosphere exuded warmth and charm, and the staff went above and beyond to create a friendly and welcoming environment!"
"The decor is great and makes the place feel warm."
"It is so refreshing to have a full menu to choose from as a vegetarian. The decor is nice and the music is really good."
"This place is awesome- location, staff, place itself - nice vibe, not posh looking but also not shabby."
Cons:
"The only thing I don't like is the lighting...dingy."
"The first seats (sofas) we sat in near the entrance were very very low and would have made eating uncomfortable."
Staff and Service
Pros:
"Staff are all very friendly. A nice range of desserts as well."
"The staff are amazing, really friendly and helpful. I could rave on about this place."
"Service was quick, and staff were polite. Food was great."
"The staff is small in numbers but very kind."
Cons:
"Very poor service and would 100% not come back to this place."
"Simply put - this cafe has staff with the worst attitude I've ever seen."
Accessibility and Convenience
Pros:
"A short walk from the Life Centre and the train station."
"It's a lovely place that is very popular so I'd recommend booking but sometimes there is space to just walk in."
Cons:
"Completely inaccessible and the manager was incredibly rude, making very clear that they did not want disabled customers."
"There were 3 steps at the entrance and no ramp - luckily my husband was able to safely get the wheelchair up the stairs but this should have been mentioned when booking."
