Best food I’ve had the whole time in Edinburgh - Edit
The Root Veggies Bowl was so flavorful and filling and healthy! Add a side of smoky tempeh to the top and it’s amazing. My daughter ate the whole Vietnamese tofu burger which was huge! And we came back a second time for that burger. The portions are very generous. You won’t leave here hungry. The burgers come with a lot of big chunky fries. If you want to be healthy you can but if you want a deep fried mushroom burger with a side of fries and some cake you can do that too.

Disappointing - Edit
I had the pad Thai salad and it was flavorless. And my friend had the jackfruit burger, which was too spicy and the bread was hard.

Zu hoch gelobt - Edit
Wir bestellten 2 Smoothies. Die dort enthaltene Orange wurde zwar geschält, jedoch mit der weißen Schale und Kernen in den Mixer gegeben, sodass diese Stücke unangenehm im Smoothie verteilt waren. Bei dem Frühstück war nichts besonders, die backed beans scheinbar aus der Dose, kein Schwefelsalz am Rührei, die Pilze nicht frisch angebraten. Bei Burgen waren die Pommes wirklich gut, aber der Rest trocken, da halt nur Kopfsalat als Gemüse drauf war. Die Toilette war auch sehr unangenehm.
Read morePros: Service, Pommes
Cons: Toilette, Essen war nicht lecker

Wonderful food - Edit
I really miss Holy Cow now I no longer live in Edinburgh, theirs is some of the best vegan food I've ever had! The menu is always really inventive and every meal I've had there has always been just a little bit special. There is always a great selection of cakes too.

Cons: Small, can be difficult to get a table

Very nice place - Edit
I loved the atmosphere. The staff was very nice. And the food we tried was good. One thing that isn't great in my opinion is that there are very few dishes on the menu. Also, the desserts were good, but, to be honest, I was expecting them to be amazing, and they were just pretty good. I would like to go back and try some of the other things they have.

Good quality food - Edit
Been here more than once during my 4-day stay in Edinburgh which says a lot. We had dinner and also cakes and coffee which was all of great quality. Especially the cakes are something else!

Vegan Sanctuary in Scotland - Edit
Vegetables! Fresh vegetables! What a treat to have a big salad (thai salad) after having lots of fried foods. It was delicious! My mom had a sandwhich and it was huge and very satisfying. I wish we had stopped eating sooner because we had np room for dessert! Next time! The food arrived SO fast and staff were lovely!

Great brunch! - Edit
I got the full vegan breakfast and was impressed by the addition of tempeh and tofu scramble, which I don’t often see in vegan breakfasts! There was so much food but at £16.50 I would have been disappointed by any smaller portion! The staff were lovely and the café is a perfectly cosy size.

Lovely breakfast in a fantastic location - Edit
Went here last Friday to get breakfast. We chose the "full vegan breakfast" which is basically a traditional English breakfast, veganized. It was really good! Especially loved the scrambled tofu and the beans. The chai latte I ordered was also great.
Read moreThe location of this cafe was fantastic too. Very vintagy and in an old building.
Would highly recommend this cute little cafe.

Overrated and burnt - Edit
Customer service was nice. But the food was nothing special and was overpriced for what it was. Some of the breakfast was inedible due to not being able to break it apart or bite into it due to being overcooked. Really disappointed as I had this on my list to try while in Edinburgh😒

Cons: Food , Expensive , Underwhelming

Worth a stop - Edit
Stopped here right after our flight got in for a full vegan breakfast. Scrambled tofu was a bit creamier than I like, but all still delicious. Came for a second time for a late night cake (banoffee and NY Cheesecake).

Absolutely great! - Edit
Great staff! I got the Reuben sandwich that comes with a side of salad, loved the homemade kimchi inside. I also liked the fries I stole from my friends, tasty but didn’t taste too oily neither.
