Awesome, wholesome food - Edit
Dr Legumes hit the spot, offering a mouth watering menu and delivering on taste, presentation and vegan credentials.
Read moreIt's a diamond in the rough, set in a fairly rough part of town, but certainly worth a visit as it's plate lickingly good!
Pros: Vegan throughout, Taste, Presentation

Dropped in to this amazing place while staying nearby. Both the Kimchi slider and banana blossom 'fish' were amazing. I especially loved the pickled vegetables with the oriental salad, scrummy!

Hippy Hangout and All That Jazz - Edit
We enjoyed brunch here, though my teen son said it was "hippy food", and the eclectic 'jazz' music didn't aid digestion. Food's described as 'plant-based' (which can mean anything), but we confirmed it's all vegan.

Fantastic (Non vegan - vegan food) - Edit
We've eaten at this plant based restaurant a couple of times and the food is superb. My wife isn't a vegan and we've taken non vegan friends and they raved about the food. Highly recommend.

Had the Pastrami Ruben and Nori Tofu sandwich. Can highly recommend both. Served on different types of the freshest bread that was toasted to perfection. The flavours and textures on both were exceptional!

Don’t be put off by the fancy menu - this place is great - Edit
I’ve checked out this place for years. Every time I go to Folkestone, I always stop in and check the menu. I always turn away because I don’t fancy anything on the menu. The descriptions are so posh, I actually don’t know what this dish is and that kind of puts me off.
Read moreBut tonight I just bite the bullet. I didn’t fancy anything anywhere so I just thought I’d just go in and see what the staff recommended. They recommended something I just couldn’t comprehend so I stuck to a safe mushroom roti dish and it really didn’t disappoint.
I ordered from the evening menu and had the sweetcorn and seaweed chowder with fig cornbread to start followed by the Masala Oyster Mushroom Salad Roti. Both dishes were so good that I wish I had ordered more. For the evening menu, a small dish and a big dish was enough if you are not too hungry (my appetite been up and down lately) but for people with big appetite you might need third dish.
Only criticism I have is I felt the fig cornbread didn’t go very well with the sweet corn chowder (don’t put the sweet bread into the soup) but separately they were delicious.
****updated - went back the next day for lunch and the customer service was great. They remembered me from the day before (without prompting) and gave me a royal service. I ordered the Phish Goujon Ciabatta and a side dish of the Beetroot Carpaccio. Both great dishes. If you love beetroot, the Carpaccio is a must ☺️
****updated 29th August 2021 - went for Sunday lunch and has the Pea Meat Ballantine and the Cinnamon and Fruit french toast for dessert. Both great dishes, The Ballantine is quite light but just filling enough. The french toast a lovely autumnal taste and one to go for if you love cinnamon. It’s very filling so together with the Ballantine, they make a good combo 😋

Lovely breakfast - Edit
Came here with a group of vegan runners after parkrun for breakfast. The staff weee really accommodating, taking our orders in advance so we didn’t have to wait long. Staff were friendly and we were all able to sit outside. The food was delicious- beautifully presented as well as tasty and I loved the bacon they had! I need to go back to test the lunch/dinner menu!! Very good.

Amazing - Edit
Amazing vegan food and drink options. Staff were lovely. We went when they were about to change their menu over so they advised there would be limited options but there was still lots of choice.
