    Delicious sweet potato and feta pie. But to be honest, the owner is the reason to visit: she’s so friendly and the atmosphere she creates with effortless conversation is way more than you get at most cafes. Super chilled!

    Delicious home made pies, salads, desserts. Mostly Greek dishes, with other influences and loads of great vegetarian choices. Try the raw desserts - they're amazing! Truly made with love, this is a hidden treasure of Cowley Road.

    Tucked away on upper Cowley Road but a great little Deli. Had their veg soup 🫕 and a beetroot cake 🎂 today, which were both delicious. 😋 HOWEVER their Pumpkin seeds butter (pictured) didn't hit the spot for me - green goop that tasted way, way too much like pumpkin. 🎃 Lady was super helpful and they had some interesting items - Cocoa powder (a guilty pleasure for us vegans 🍫), Apple Cider Vinegar 🍎, Coffee grounds ☕, pies 🥧, and a wide range of vegan dishes they made. 🍽 She even held the door and recommended a place that did lettuce down the road. 🥬 Oh, and they are open during lockdown, which is good. One of those places that grows on you. When I wasn't vegan, I didn't *get* it (though I note they now do Steak & Kidney pie and other meat dishes). Now I'm vegan: I totally get it as the flavours and variety are in fluent Vegan (yet suitable for all).

    Highly rate this beautiful cafe/shop with incredible selection of teas which are all tea leafs and not plastic packaged!! Vegan chocolates, and the three filo pastry dish was incredible!! Cups were also compostable which was great and really lovely customer service as well. They had some peanut butter and some greek produces on the side to buy as well which was great. Highly recommend and would love to come back again :)

    I don't find very often vegetarian restaurant or cafe places in UK. I was looking for a different one and I saw the this place and i tried the food. Amazing cooked and fresh. The soup was exactly like home and the prices are acceptable. The owner make you to feel like home and is smiling all the time. Is a quite, rustic place and you can enjoy a good healthy food.

    Hilariously bad. I can understand pre preparing food...but at the very least they could heat it up after pulling it out of the fridge. Ordered two pies (what they said was a pie anyway) and one showed up half heated while the other was completely cold. Never got the coffee I ordered. Portions are small, overpriced and bland. General vibe is just a bit strange, tables are wobbly, and the bathroom door won't stay shut. I can't make sense of how this place is well rated.

    Went there yesterday with a friend and absolutely loved it! Everything was fresh and prepared with care and love. The chickpea curry my friend had came with sweet potato bread that's to die for, and my little salad for only 2£ came with herbs, peeled (!) peppers, fennel, and Calamata olives. The sweet potato and feta pie was seasoned well and came with a lovely little decoration. We will definitely be back. It's great to eat at a place where people genuinely enjoy what they do. Very friendly too! And even the free water came with cucumber and mint!
