Beautifully prepared vegan and gluten free food and drink, and a warm welcome in this buzzing friendly cafe next to the post office at the bottom of Burford High Street. I can highly recommend the foccacia with olives and the almond milk cappuccino. Very dog friendly too.

This is a lovely vegan cafe with wonderful food and service. Serves hot bowls, salads, soups, and sandwiches, as well as super tasty (and not too sweet) desserts. And the coffee is always great!

Amazing vegan food!!!! Found this tiny cafe while researching vegan in the area & they came up! Such a beautiful & charming cafe! It’s located towards the back of a shop. All of their food is vegan! I got a delicious savory lunch tart which was yummy crust topped with perfectly seasoned & caramelized veggies. Their vegan desserts were just as yummy! Bonus points for the adorable dog relaxing in the shop! Such a lovely vegan lunch in a town that’s hard to find vegan choices!!!

The food here is delicious. I had lunch here with my husband yesterday, I am GF and he is not and he thought you really couldn't tell the focaccia was Gluten free and I thought of was one of the best I've tried. Would highly recommend to everyone, even if you don't need to be GF.

Just tried Nutmeg & Thyme’s Blueberry and Lemon muffin - unbelievably good! Gluten-free, plant-based cooking at its absolute finest. So happy to have such brilliant GF options here in Oxfordshire!

Popped in here to get a takeaway lunch on a sunny Saturday. So good to have a 100% vegan cafe/deli in the Cotswolds! I had a mix of all 3 salads and they were so delicious! Service is warm and friendly! What more could you want?? Highly recommended!

Hidden treasure in Burford! I'm vegan and Coeliac so this place was an amazing find, it's so nice to have a choice of anything for lunch! We had the pear cake with 2 x lattes and a rosemary and sea salt focaccia and it was all AMAZING! Girl who served us was lovely too. Can't wait to visit again!
