Many vegan options - Edit
Updating review July 2024: good vegan pastries (savoury and sweet), muffins, trail bars and light meals, iced coffee with plant milks (30p extra). I've recently enjoyed the avo on toast meal and mushrooms on toast meal, served with green salad and grilled tender-stem broccoli. The sourdough toast is a bit tough to cut; easier to pick it up. I enjoyed an iced latte with oatmilk.
Read moreSummer 2019: Cafe serves vegetarian and vegan meals and treats, vegan sausage rolls and a vegan soup-of-the-day. I had the vegan Signature Burger: house-made patty, smoked ketchup, slaw, £12. Also had the turmeric latte made with oat milk. 30p extra for the three plant-based milks. Another summer day, I had their gazpacho, which was delicious! Last visit, I had the Garden Salad - warm baby potatoes in with lettuce, creamy dressing, radish, string beans, pea pods and samphire. Very good.
Dogs allowed inside. The cafe is directly under the tube line, so there is regular loud rumbling overhead. Outdoor seating available.

Pros: vegan soup-of-the-day, surrounded by plants! (it's a garden centre)

Beautiful and tasty - Edit
It is wonderful to see companies make good use of spaces available in the city. This café is so beautiful, old and rustique. The only noise there is hearing the trains passing over it, but it's not too bad. They have plants and beautiful interior, but the garden must be wonderful in the summer, as the café is part of a business that sells plants.
Read moreThe staff is nice, and the vegan options are clearly marked. We had a home-made tomato soup and a roll filled with peas. The latter was 4/5 but the tomato soup was super tasty, definitely 5/5. I'd also give full score to the decaf latte with coconut milk I had.
Pros: Amazing tomato soup, Tasty latte, Super cute place, both inside and outside
Cons: Can be slightly annoying to hear all the trains

Very nice surroundings. Plenty of vegan options in the full veggie cafe although the special which is the main meal (they do sausage rolls, cakes always etc) is not always vegan. Lattes are amazing!!
Read morePros: Delicious coffee, Good selection
Cons: Only one staff member makes service a little slow!

W6 Garden Centre - Edit
I developed a love (I mean obsession 😆) with plants during lockdown and have been to nearly all garden centers in London. This is one of my favorites. It’s cute and tranquil. They have rooms of plants decorated so nicely, it’s like a plant paradise. The cafe is amazing and super peaceful to enjoy a vegan drink on a nice day. And they even have hard to find plants too. I love W6!

Hidden gem with amazing coffee - Edit
Fairly small cafe but great environment and menu (veggie and vegan). The lattes were AMAZING... best Ive had in ages (they all lots of non dairy milks). Sordough hummus and olives side potatoes was an ideal brunch. Very fairly price. Will be back.

Beautiful garden centre - Edit
Edited to change to 5 stars after eating there a second time. The big salad with fresh leaves, potatoes etc. was divine!
Read moreLoved browsing the plants! My beetroot velvet latte with oat milk was delicious. I also had the mushrooms on toast with tamari sauce. I found them a bit too oily but an otherwise interesting dish. Will be back to enjoy the really peaceful atmosphere and try more dishes!
Pros: Big space with lots of greenery, Delicious drinks, Dog and child friendly
Cons: A bit too oily (mushrooms), Not just vegan

Wonderful lunch - Edit
The food was delightful. Lots of creativity not typically seen in a cafe like this, and plenty of outdoor seating. I sampled the summer salad, tamari mushrooms and enjoyed the seasonal tart which was asparagus. The seed and nut base added a nice savoury crunch to the creamy tart. The salad was lovely, and very fresh. Enjoyed the coffee as well. I will be back again.
Read morePros: Mostly vegan, Delicious entrees, coffee and juice, Beautiful setting
Cons: Had cheese, egg and honey on some dishes, Only a single toilet for such a large cafe, Well hidden behind the garden centre

Good option on a sunny day - Edit
Went here to browse the plants, without realising they had a cafe. Lovely find. Great place to sit and have a drink in the sun, surrounded by nature. Partner had some cake which went down well, lots of snacks on offer.
