    Brilliant little vegan cafe with lovely service. One of the best meals out I've had in my 11 years of being vegan, and definitely some of the best Biscoff, Oreo and peanut brownies ever! We were there to break up a long car journey - even on a random Monday lunchtime, it was busy - clearly very popular

    Wow wow wow. First visit to the cafe today and it was lovely. We aren't vegan and my husband can be a bit sceptical about vegan food but he was blown away with the coffee and banana biscoff french toast. We visited with our young children and they adapted the menu for the children. We felt so welcome by the host and the whole place just felt lovely. We will be returning!

    This is a very pleasant vegan cafe. I enjoyed my visit and I will certainly return. Just make sure you check the opening times because it is closed a couple of days in the week.

    First time visiting here and my only regret is not coming here sooner! The flavours were unbelievable for such a simple lunch dish. Will definitely be coming back again.

    We love popping into the magic sunflower, so when planning our wedding we knew we would love them to make our cake. The did a wonderful job, it was beautiful and very yummy. Both flavours (chocolate fudge and biscoff) were a big hit with the guests. They were really helpful adjusting the delivery time in line with our venue. Thank you for being a part of a magical day.

    Love this place, always worth the drive from Derby to visit 😊 The fact everything is vegan AND gluten free if you need it is HUGE brownie points from us. Had fab scrambled tofu and avocado toast nom nom 😋. My only complaint is too much cake choice as they were all vegan and gf!! 😍 We took the cakes home for lunch...delish!!! Love it!!!

    We pre-booked for our first visit today - our server was so polite, happy and friendly. The food was out of this world incredible! Neither of us eat vegan normally but it was some of then best food I’ve ever had - The beetroot hummus on toast was incredible. We’ll be back!

    Absolutely delicious food, lovely atmosphere and great staff 😁 been here a few times and will be back! I'm gluten intolerant and i could eat almost everything, which is such a joy! The vegan food is fantastic and if I could eat where every day, I'd be super happy.

    Excellent little cafe, very popular,so I would advise you to book. However,we did manage to get a table early on Saturday morning. The food was delicious,very tasty,and seasoned to perfection. A great place for vegans to eat. The service was great ,and we were greeted by a really lovely chap,who made us feel very welcome. Well worth a visit,we will definitely be returning,now that we've found this little gem.

    Stepping into this vegan cafe was like entering a serene oasis of good vibes and delectable delights. The moment I walked through the door, I was immediately struck by the beautiful decor, which blended natural elements with modern touches. The cozy seating areas, adorned with plants and soft lighting, created a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a meal. The menu boasted an impressive array of vegan dishes, and I decided to try their vegan goat curry and my SO went to for the TLT(tofu, lettuce, and tomato) sandwich. I was intrigued to see how this classic dish would fare, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed. The vegan goat curry was a revelation! The flavors were rich and aromatic, with just the right amount of spice to tantalize my taste buds. It was hearty and satisfying, with tender mock meat that closely resembled the real thing, but without any animal products. The accompanying side dishes of fluffy rice and fresh, crisp salad complemented the curry perfectly. Next up was the tlt sandwich, which was a delightful twist on the traditional BLT. The tofu was marinated and grilled to perfection, giving it a smoky and savory taste that harmonized wonderfully with the crisp lettuce and juicy tomato slices. The mayo added a creamy element that tied all the flavors together, making it a mouthwatering treat. What truly set this vegan cafe apart, though, was the exceptional customer service. From the moment I walked in, the staff greeted me with genuine warmth and enthusiasm. They were knowledgeable about the menu and eager to offer recommendations, ensuring that every guest had a delightful dining experience. Their friendliness and attentiveness made me feel welcome and valued as a customer. As a whole, my visit to this vegan cafe left me with a memorable and positive impression. The combination of beautiful decor, well-seasoned and delicious food, excellent customer service, and the overall friendly atmosphere made it a standout dining destination. Whether you're a committed vegan or just curious about plant-based cuisine, this cafe is an absolute must-visit. I'll definitely be returning to savor more of their delightful offerings!

    Fabulous food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. The Sunday lunch was amazing. Looking forward to coming back again soon to try the rest of the menu as it’s all looks and sounds delicious. We couldn’t resist getting some cakes to take away.

    Yet again, another visit where everyone left more than happy. I cannot say one bad thing about any of our experiences. I am the only vegan out of our friendship group, and even the meat eaters love it. The food is always so fresh, well presented and the server is always so polite and friendly . My only disappointment, no cheesecake again. That's my favourite, though all the cakes are good too.
