Remarkable refillery

Combining a refill, zero waste shop with a cafe, Little Green Refills ticks all my boxes.

The food is locally sourced whenever possible and predominantly vegan.

The staff are attentive and welcoming.

Lots of variety on the dining menu.

love it here

i’ve been here a couple times and it’s such a lovely cafe. the menu is really good with most things being vegan friendly. I had the garlic thyme mushrooms on toast last time and it was very good! my family had the chilli bowl and cheese kimchi toastie, as well as some pastries, which they really enjoyed. i’m looking forward to trying the vegan shakshuka and salad bowls too so will update my review when i have. the shop downstairs is fun to have a browse in too!

Pros: lovely food and menu, including gf options, refill/zero waste shop attached, such a nice interior

Cons: would be better if fully vegan 👀

What a lovely treat to find whilst passing through

We we’re grateful for this amazing find from HappyCow whilst heading by from South Wales back up to North Wales.

A wonderful variety of delicious food, superb flavours and textures. Great variety of vegan choices as well as GF.

They also have a superb refill shop.

A great little find indeed. The staff were super kind, fun, helpful and accommodating.

Pros: Lots of vegan and GF options, Great choice of teas and cakes (sugar free), Friendly staff

The best in Aber

We've eaten here many times and have always had a good experience! The menu has obviously been put together by someone who understands veggie food and I've never been disappointed with anything I've tried. The (vegan option) kimcheese toastie shouldn't be missed.

The cafe is also very cosy and the staff are lovely.

Pros: Good vegan options, Tasty food, Friendly and warm venue

Stopped here for lunch and had the sauerkraut cheezy toastie and a lentil chilli. The shop was beautiful and staff very friendly. The food was delicious, especially the savoury Welshcake that came with the chilli. Bought a vegan scone to takeaway which was amazing!

Pros: Friendly staff, Lots of choice, Tasty bakery items

Cons: Matcha too strong

Lovely cafe

UPATE 2024:
Still a good selection of vegan and veggie foods. They now have seating outside which is lovely on a warm day. I had the loaded hash i think it was called, hash browns, beans and vegan cheese, it was really good. My husband has the breakfast burrito which he liked. Over all a lovely meal, friendly staff.

Previous review:
Great selection of vegan food. Good quality too but is a bit pricey for what you get in my opinion.

Delicious and filling!

I had the shakshuka which substituted egg for vegan feta. It was delicious, couldn't fault it! Rich and creamy with a side of great toasted sourdough. Very hearty and set me up for the day.

Interior is funky and the shop downstairs is fun to browse post brunch. Would definitely return next time I'm in Abergavenny.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Clearly labelled vegan options

Delicious Green Breakfast

I had a Green Breakfast with extra beans and vegan cheese instead of eggs to make it vegan and it was just delicious and good portion size too. Would be nice to see scrambled tofu and vegan sausage to make it a full English breakfast.

I enjoyed my meal outside in the sun. There is lovely seating upstairs. The store has alot of refill options to reduce packaging.

Pros: Vegan options, Nice deco

Cons: Serves dairy and eggs, Need variety for vegan options

Amazing !

I can’t fault this place ! Really nice staff, the shop is so great and has lots of excellent buys. The cafe is such a nice atmosphere, so chilled out. The food I had in the cafe was delicious, I had the coronation chickpea bagel and my husband had the hummus toastie- both came with crisps and slaw. Really good quality well made food. The hot drinks are also amazing I had a rose latte ! I’m very impressed.

Pros: Great staff , Great food , Great drinks

Wonderful options

Visited with three non-vegan friends and there was something for everyone. Very impressed at just how many things can be veganised and had one of the best almond vegan croissants I’ve tried.

Pros: Good range , Very tasty , Friendly, helpful staff

Excellent breakfast in a lovely atmosphere

I had an excellent plant-based sandwich for breakfast with a tremendous cup of coffee. It was a real treat to sit upstairs with sunlight bathing through the window and fantastic music playing in the background.

Great cake and coffee

A sustainability focussed business combining a cafe with a refill shop. Large variety of vegan cake. Between us we had sticky toffee, chocolate brownie, cardamom swirl, and banana&chocolate loaf. The sandwiches, bagels and toasties can all be made vegan and looked delicious.
We sat outside in the sun.

Pros: Vegan cake, Outside seating, Sustainability focussed

Fresh, local, proper food

Super café with seating outdoors so you can keep an eye on your bike. Some interesting options on the menu - "proper" food as opposed to fast food. They seem to focus on locally sourced ingredients. I had the ploughman's which includes four different cashew nut cheeses from Pip's and some excellent kimchi and sauerkraut. They also have a variety of vegan cakes, chocolates and sweets to treat yourself. Reasonable prices for very high quality food, and excellent friendly service.

Pros: Proper, fresh food, locally sourced, Indoor and outdoor seating, Loads of options

Back for a refill - soon!

I've used the shop at Little Green Refills a few times, and long thought I should try the café for lunch, so today seemed like as good a day as any: a fine Welsh spring day with black clouds forever looming. I wasn't particularly hungry and the asparagus soup appealed - I figured it would be just enough for a light lunch. I wasn't wrong. It came with some toasted sourdough (probably from the excellent but eye-wateringly expensive Angel bakery just down the road, by the taste of it), and it was simply delicious, creamy with a subtle hint of asparagus. It was so good that it was only when I'd finished that I realised I hadn't asked for pepper, or a glass of wine. I'll definitely be back (maybe they'll serve wine by then).

Incidentally, the shop sells all the usual things you'd expect in a refill store - pulses, pasta, cereals, spices, toiletries - but also some treats such as Moroccan marmalade (made in Talgarth, naturally), which is subtly spiced, and fava bean paste, which has a lovely umami flavour. both are utterly addictive, utterly irresistible.

Charming cafe with lots of vegan options and great coffee

With tables inside and outside, this is a charming cafe joined to a fabulous environmentally aware shop. We shared a cafetière of coffee with oat milk (no soya milk on the menu) and treated ourselves to a vegan Victoria sponge and a vegan biscoff millionaire’s shortbread. The coffee was excellent. There are no lattes/cappuccino on the menu.

The prices were very reasonable and there was a quirky option of filling a bowl of cereal from the refill shop and paying by weight. On my next visit I’ll be trying out the Coronation chick pea filling.

Environmentalists will like the individual real hand towels in the bathroom rather than paper towels/hand driers.
