I love vegan food but my experience here has been a bit hit and miss. Both the tofu scramble and breakfast sandwich had little flavor, which I assume is down to a lack of seasoning. I know Americans are used to wildly over-salted food, but this tasted like it had no seasoning at all. Not terrible but not great either. Service was friendly and fast, and I’m glad this place is around and open late. I might just need to explore the menu more.
The food is so good, and the price is low for the quality. The chefs here are great. Atmosphere is good for small meetings with friends or getting some work done, preferably with headphones on, as it does get noisy sometimes.

It’s a cafe, so you’ll be busing your dishes and refilling your drinks.

Food here is fairly good for a vegan restaurant that is open late. Their desserts are excellent, I will give them that. The people are super friendly and nice, which keeps me coming back.
