Went to Big Sur for breakfast with my partner. Expectations were not only met but massively surpassed. Big Sur has a really nice calm and chilled atmosphere about it that was absolutely perfect. I got the poached eggs and she got the crepes. The presentation was beautiful and the taste was fantastic. We ended up sharing both meals as we loved them both! Highly recommended and we will without a doubt be back again.

Excellent coffee and service here. I always get given a small cake with it.

We sat outside at the back. Not a fancy setting but good enough for basking in the sun. They got a good selection of vegetarian food with a little twist of Asian food. We had a tasty omelette and Banh Xeo which was very bland, almost not seasoned at all. As Vietnamese Crepes, Banh Xeo normally comes with a dipping sauce but served without it. Their coffee was beautiful and the lady staff was nice too.

Very friendly and efficient service at this lovely little West Lynn cafe. Excellent coffee and the counter food always looks and tastes great.

Decent enough scambled eggs and nice strong coffee. Loved that they actually scanned my vaccine passport...made me feel safer healthwise knowing that they're treating Covid seriously and keeping out non-vaxxers.

Great, moderately priced, healthy and vegetarian fare with friendly service and terrific coffee. A really good spot for a brunch that's a little bit different and a little bit healthy. Vegetarian and, yes, even vegan options for the plant-based people in your life. A surprisingly multi-ethnic menu, with vegetarian twists on old favourites (a yummy portobello mushroom benedict) through to Indian Upma topped with a perfectly poached egg, Vietnamese crispy rice pancake Banh Xeo, Bean Tacos and more! Make sure you ask for an extra shot in your coffee, they make them a bit lightweight for the serious coffee drinker. ☕

Amazing Food and Fabulous Service: This place is must visit for ones who like vegan or vegetarian food. I am thrilled by the food I had there and will definitely going to continue my visits there. I love this place :)

AMAZING service, delicious food - these guys were outstanding! I had initially booked the courtyard for a birthday lunch for 13 people. This ballooned to 27 people (I'm so sorry guys!). The manager and staff were so accommodating and kind, they did everything to make us feel comfortable. While the service was incredible, the food was sensational! I loved their smoothies (green colada was my fave), mushroom stroganoff, cocao crepes were delicious! Of the 27 attendees there were no complaints (and most of them were not vegan!!), only praise for this delightful cafe. Thank you again guys for such an incredible experience!

Amazing menu, friendly staff. Entire menu vegetarian. Even all our non vege friends loved it.

Love the coffee , have never had a bad cup yet , scones are flavorsome and the pies are delicious, staff are friendly and welcoming everytime we visit . We happily travel just that little bit further for the quality . Would highly recommend to anyone

Found the food to be average and the coffee came in very small cups. Two mouthfuls and it was gone. Staff were good and the service was fine.

J. H.

Really good food and coffee. Interesting food if you're into trying something different (vegan)

D. J.

Love this cafe for a casual lunch or coffee, especially their vegan sausage rolls and Portuguese tarts - super yum! Lovely, friendly staff too 😊

S.

Been here a few times and never been disappointed, the food and service is always great. It would be nice to see some new or rotating vegan items on the menu because once you’ve eaten them all you kind of want to look elsewhere to eat something new.

H.

Excellent food! Catered for both sweet and savory. Great vegan and vego options. Friendly staff aswell. Will definitely be coming back

M. K.

Very nice & clean cafe not overcrowded. Spinach & feta quiche would rate as one of the best I've ever had - yumbo 💜💜

P. L.

I like Big Sur and it's menu is a bit more interesting than most cafes. I think it is vegetarian and it's items are tasty and eclectic, typical prices friendly service very unglamorous setting

S. L.

Absolutely wonderful vegan & vegetarian food with gf options, service and venue. We sat out the back under an umbrella and it was lovely. We had Kimchi tofu and the courgetti dishes both well seasoned & good portion. Followed by great tasting coffee. We will go again with our daughter.

I was looking for a vegan cafe and drove across the city to find this cozy place. I ordered pumpkin chickpea falafels on cabbage with tahini dressing. It was so yum. They were busy on a Sunday morning, but the service was amazing. Everyone working there was friendly and had a smile on. Very impressed.

V. H.

If you like vegetarian or vegan food this is a great little cafe, outdoor area out back and on street as well as inside. Excellent coffee and buckwheat crepes were very good. Friendly staff who know what they are doing. Will return

H. W.

Not very exciting food, much less flavour than you would hope for. The service was quite slow but extremely friendly which saved this place

K. G.

Friendly staff and yummy food. Coffee was great too .

H. E.

Good vegetarian options and nice coffee :) lady in charge is always friendly and remembers a face

M. T.

Very pleasant atmosphere, nice back patio area. Staff were keen to close up early when we were there, which is understandable because of the beautiful weather! But perhaps best to stay professional until actual closing.

Great local VEGAN amazing pies

One of my fav haunts over winter, this little spot offers respite from the cold with a friendly team and beautifully crafted food . You can fossick through second hand books while you wait for your coffee, or do what I do and take a seat to share a portion of the Courgetti with rich, sweet tomato sauce - followed by a crepe filled with chocolate creme and candied walnuts. Vegan and vegetarian options are plentiful, service is quick & friendly, meals are filling and flavoursome. And sometimes you might even get to pat a cat.

R. H.

Nice service and ambience but the food was only so-so. It was presented OK but lacked flavour except the relish that was OK.
