Would give 5 but one or two awkward servers detract slightly from the overall experience. Watch out for Stadtler and Waldorf, two old duffers, who try to talk over your conversation, when they don't like the content.

Love this rescued food place. Menu of soup suggested £4.50; a breakfast bowl: kale, potatoes, tomatoes and smashed avocado. Suggested price £6.50 or a yummy vegan dish. Pay it forward coffee £2.50

Absolutely loved the food here and the ethic behind The Gardener. I had a vegetable stroganoff with roasted vegetables and sautéed potatoes - delicious and filling. Great quality food is rescued before it is dumped and used to make the day's menu. You pay what you feel a meal is worth to you (although the suggested price is already incredibly reasonable) and you can also choose whether you'd like to pay forward for a meal for someone else. The food is great and so are the amazing staff. Check the opening times as it isn't open every day.

An extraordinary cafe serving the community from grass roots up, using surplus food for their tasty dishes which I'm only asked to make a donation for. Regular cakes, sweets, variation of hot and cold drinks. Highly recommend. Ran by volunteers, with a core paid crew behind them; providing a foot hold in working life and working in a team. Love this place and grateful for it.

Wonderful place with a mission, wish there were more places like this. All run by volunteers that believe in what they do and zero-waste donation-based food. So not only you help people in need but also do something good for the environment.
