Absolutely this place. 100% vegan, independent and local. Staff are amazing and friendly. They sell vegan goods too, cheeze, plant based dog snacks, deli items and have a refill station for shampoo/ conditioner and laundry stuff. I would go here every week if I could!

Absolutely lovely food. Great portion sizes and everything is cooked fresh. Loads of different things to buy from food to gifts. We had the pancake stack and all day breakfast.

We had a lovely lunch at Blondes. Between us, we had hot dogs, burgers, and pancakes, and also bought some things to take home too. Great food, friendly and helpful staff, and it's always nice to be able to choose from a whole menu. My son loved his 'milk'shake and I had a Jaffa latte, which was really tasty.

Amazing Place, great decor and fab food, we went miles out of the way and it didn't disappoint We were travelling from N Yorks to Lincolnshire and decided we could pop in to Cottingham for this place, it was epic! I'm not a breakfast person but I was in love with their bagel, omellete, sausage, hashbrown, beans and cheese!!! My partner got a homemade beetburger with extra hash browns- it all tasted amazing, the tables are fab, its nice and roomy upstairs and they have a great selection in their shop- we picked up some violife extra mature and could have easily got lots more! We even stayed a while in the village so we could have their amazing dessert and milkshakes-divine! if we are ever in the area we will definetly return as it was a great experience. A SUPER FINE example of a vegan cafe!!!!

I highly recommend this cafe. Friendly staff, lots of delicious savoury and sweet options and good-sized portions. They sell a range of vegan items in their shop, ranging from cleaning materials and toiletries to cheeses and pickles.

Great, reasonably priced food served in a cafe clearly living it's values on veganism. Pet friendly, enviro friendly cleaning products with refill station at the back of the shop. I recommend the Keralan cauliflower and chickpea pasty!

A lovely little, totally vegan cafe tucked away in a small place that is Cottingham. The food is lovely, with good sized portions (we were stuffed) and there are lots of lovely vegan things for sale in there, as well as some great things for dogs too. Dogs are very welcome with their human companions, which is also fabulous. We'll definitely visit again. Photos of choc mint freak shake and oreo hot chocolate

Recently decided to go vegan with my wife and decided to try out the local vegan cafe. The staff were incredibly helpful, offering valuable advice for newcomers like us. The menu provided a plethora of fresh and delicious options, creating a tough choice with so much variety. The atmosphere was lovely, and the extensive selection of vegan alternatives was impressive. Looking forward to our next visit, and the mocha was the best I've had in a long time!
