The hot food section stands out with items such as Homemade Soup Of The Day, Vegetarian English Breakfast, Vegan Hot Dog, Vegetarian Burger, and Vegetarian Samosas X2, offering a mix of light bites and more filling meals suited for different times of day. The sandwich range is particularly varied, featuring options like Panini With Tomato, Mozzarella, Spinach & Pesto Sauce, White Bloomer With Cheddar & Pickle, White Bloomer With Veggie Sausage Cheddar, Mushroom & BBQ Sauce, and Focaccia With Veggie Chicken Slices, Mozzarella, Tomato & Pesto Sauce, which suggests a focus on fresh, simple flavour combinations. Salads such as Lettuce, Cucumber, Red Onion, Cherry Tomatoes, Green Olives, Feta & Pesto Sauce keep things light and balanced, while Bagel and toast options add a quick snack alternative. The drinks menu is equally broad, with hot beverages like Cappuccino, Latte, Americano, Flat White, and Mocha, alongside cold refreshments including Hullabaloos Still Lemonade, Hullabaloos Still Raspberry Lemonade, Hullabaloos Lime & Mint, Blood Orange Lemonaid, and Chari Tea Green. For those with a sweet tooth, the vegan smoothies such as Super Green, Caribbean Fresh, and Triple Berry provide a healthier option, while desserts like Mint Chocolate Chip, Salted Caramel, and other dairy-based treats round off the selection. Overall, the menu feels casual and accessible, with a strong emphasis on plant-based variety and familiar café favourites.
