Cafe Van Gogh

A lovely cafe ran by equally lovely and enthusiastic people. All the dishes we tried were delicious and fulfilling. The selection isn't too large but in turn that helps you decide quicker and enjoy the atmosphere and/or the company! They also have a broad selection of drinks and work with socially responsible brands. With seating available both indoors and outdoors, this vegan café is a must-try in the area. Thanks guys!

I was early for a meeting and looked for a coffee nearby, this place was a hidden treasure trove. There is a small inside space and a beautiful hidden garden behind. I was so relaxed away from the busy road. The service was amazing! I felt the team were genuinely happy and caring, they brought water straight away. My coffee was fabulous, and my almond croissant was the best I have ever had (and I've eaten a lot of them). It was hot, buttery and generously filled. I will definitely be returning to try the brunch!

I came for a friend's birthday and as a non vegan, I enjoyed the food and the staff were so nice and friendly. We shared the beetroot three ways, mushroom "scallops" (really nice), crispy tortilla (really enjoyed this one), courgette fritters (slightly dry), BBQ Korean tempeh skewers with cold noodles (as a Korean, I felt it was lacking in Korean flavours but it was still a nice dish), moussaka (good), roasted spiced cauliflower with butter beans and tomato (great) and the chips with "bacon salt" (honestly we re-ordered more as they were that good). I've heard good things about their brunch menu, so I will definitely come back at some point!

I've been waiting for ages to visit Cafe Van Gogh and I finally managed to go. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The food is really good and it's great not having to figure what vegans can eat because EVERYTHING is vegan. A must visit for everyone especially to support a great cause where they help those with learning disabilities get into employment. It has an awesome atmosphere with lots of plants and flowers to admire.

I'd heard rave reviews about Cafe Van Gogh, so on Monday after the most recent, I booked for that week treating my friend to her first ever vegan meal. It's a beautiful venue with a wonderful concept of training the most engaging Special Needs people in hospitality which I absolutely applaud so I knew I just had to be here. Under the fun and efficient enthusiasm and guidance of Steve and Michelle, it's an absolute gem of a place. Their Sunday Roasts are legendary so I'm already planning on bringing three other friends for that soon It's popular as having both indoors - two floors - and two outdoors seating areas we were spoilt for choice but chose outside for a sunny Thursday. The vibe is relaxed, loving and happy and it's contagious to all of us who were present. I deliberately take photos of uninhabited areas to avoided having people shown, so don't let that give you the impression it wasn't busy, it was The food was delicious, having seasonal produce and new innovations.I can't wait to see what my next visit will have me devouring.I actually had all three desserts but thankfully my phone camera was playing up so I only have my friends photo of two of them and the avocado on sourdough was a hit with my non vegan friend . . .so much so, we've booked dinner for 8 September. Like all good restaurants I have my favourite waiters and today it was the lovely Billy and though I was looking forward to having Tristan too, he was already off shift. . . maybe next time. I really like their online booking system as it gives clear guidance, its quick and easy, with two email reminders to confirm my booking and offer the option to cancel so there's absolutely no reason for any guests to be a no show. I can't recommend this enough not just for lovely vegan fare, event nights and "pay it forward" {where you can by a meal or coffee for someone who can't afford one} it's just the whole ambiance, ethos and eating experience so I'm eager for them to thrive even more than they already are as they deserve to. I'm hoping they'll be able to create more branches may in North East London where I am . . . There is one accessibility toilet which is large, clean and roomy plus it has nice hand washes and cream, which are always important when dining out. The Oval {Northern Line} is a 5 minute walk away, simply exit crossing the road to the church, walk alongside it and it's the first right into Brixton Road, two blocks down, it couldn't be easier. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants great food, a wonderful atmosphere and community vibe, and who knows they're supporting the most deserving eager workers you could come across.

The most welcoming fantastic restaurant that I’ve long been waiting to try! From the warm welcome by Steven which continued with the most kind and friendly chatting throughout, it’s unusual to feel so comfortable when travelling solo. Staff were attentive but not overbearing which is a hard balance to strike, however they’ve got it spot on. The food is fantastic, and changes with the seasons which is something I look forward to returning for whenever I return to London. One of the best lattes I’ve had in a while, brilliant dinner, and even got a croissant for breakfast treat tomorrow! A brilliant social enterprise that I wish we had more of, I’d give more stars if I could Thank you :-)

Beautiful place to pop in for a coffee, lunch or dinner. They are doing a great job helping people with learning disabilities to get a job 😃learning new skills that will help them in life 😃 Lovely decorated place with vibrant colours, inside area downstairs, upstairs and great garden at the back, they have some tables on the front too. Food & drinks are very good. A paradise for the vegans, vegetarian & healthy minded. There is a toilet accessible for wheelchairs too 😃
