Nice place to have breakfast - Edit
Foodilic is a lovely café offering a wide selection of vegan food—though they do serve non-vegan dishes as well.
Read moreWe tried the full vegan breakfast and had coffee (a black Americano and a flat white with oat milk). The breakfast included a vegan sausage, tomato beans, toast, scrambled tofu, aubergine, mushrooms, and tomato—pretty much what I remember a classic English breakfast being like.
The food was quite good, though a bit mild in flavor. But that seems to be a general trend I’ve noticed with food in England—nothing a bit of salt and chili sauce couldn’t fix. The coffee wasn’t anything special, but it was perfectly drinkable.
Overall, a really good experience: nice café, friendly staff, and satisfying food. If you’re in the mood for a typical English breakfast with a vegan twist, this is a safe and solid choice.

tasty vegan options - Edit
i’ll pop in sometimes to grab a main and salad, or a vegan spinach borek, to go. they have two vegan main options in the day (mediterranean butter beans or stuffed aubergine) and many of the salads are vegan- i’ll usually get the stuffed aubergine and roasted sweet potato kale salad, which are both so good! i haven’t tried any of their brunch menu or evening menu but both have several vegan options that i plan to try at some point.

Charge extra for non dairy milk - Edit
Had a reasonable selection of vegetable mains, and several vegan cake options
Read moreWe had a vanilla cheesecake & a chocolate cake. Our non dairy drinks were okay. A very small jug of oat milk was provided despite paying an extra 30p for it.

Not the best!! - Edit
Visited here as part of a group, was great that there was loads of options especially as two of us in the group (including myself) are vegan. I wasn't impressed that the server didn't know what vegan was when I told them I was a vegan with a tomato allergy and being offered chicken and beef. This didn't feel me with confidence!!!!
Read moreThe backend of the restaurant, where the toilets are, is filthy!!! Wasn't a pleasant walk to the toilets.
I asked for a vanilla soya latte and they forgot the vanilla, feels like they were under pressure!
Pros: Plenty of vegan and gluten free options

Nice vegan options - Edit
This cafe/restaurant has some great vegan options! I came in for breakfast and got a vegan croissant and another pastry with spinach inside. The cafe is very cute and welcoming. It looks like they also serve a vegan burger as well as other vegan options later in the day. Overall it was good!

Not impressed - Edit
Salads had been left out in the open for too long and were unpleasantly warm. There were loads of flies around, some of which were landing in the food. The toilets were very dirty and generally the restaurant had a cleanliness issue. Won't be returning in a hurry.

delicious healthy food - Edit
came here for the first time, it looks very healthy and beautiful with all the large colourful salads to choose from, and the veggie options looked great. I went for the veggie moussaka with 3 different salads, it was delicious. the fresh carrot juice was great too. for the main and juice it came to just over £10, not too expensive. will come back here again for sure.

Great salads - Edit
I went here for dinner and had the most amazing butter beans. They were served in a spicy tomato sauce that was full of flavour. It came with 3 salads. I chose the smart salad, the tomato salad, and the green bean salad. Every was flavoured beautifully and the portions were large. I'm tired of vegan junk food and deep fried satan. It is so nice to find a place that does vegan food right. Beautifully marinated vegetables and salads, and flavorful beans for protein, with no fake meats in sight. This place celebrates the joy of eating vegetables.

Full English - Edit
The vegan Full English Breakfast was the best I ever had. It was nothing like your usual full English. I think this was all homemade including the beans, scramble and the sausages

Amazing vegan boxes for takeaway! - Edit

Super affordable and fresh flavours! - Edit
Stumbled upon this cafe for lunch and loved the concept. There were loads of different salads (mostly vegan) and you can choose however many you wanted or a brunch dish. It seemed super cheap for the large amount of food you got and was all delicious!! Would come again.

Not fully vegan - Edit
Amazing vegan salad choice and reasonable pricing. Really sad and weird that they feel the need to make 2 meat hot dishes rather than keeping it all vegan for all to enjoy.
Read moreCan’t really fault the salads as they were lovely, but in somewhere like Brighton where there are so many fully vegan businesses I’d rather support those.

No longer all vegan - Edit
Nice salads but they now serve beef and chicken leg. Find it hard to enjoy the salads with all the meat there and I’m really gutted as it was my favourite place in Brighton before. Please go back to all vegan!!!

Amazing salad and value - Edit
Everything was vegan-the salad buffet is so incredible and varied. Definitely try the beans and the pesto spinach, also the crushed potato. The coffee was terrible but their speciality is kombucha which I'll be sure to try next time. Also the sugar comes in plastic packets which is a shame. I also had the cashew Alfredo with had lovely cherry tomatoes with it. Lots of sauces to choose from. Beautiful carved wooden furniture. Friendly service with a smile.
Read morePros: Variety, Value, Fresh
Cons: Bad music (quiet so you can just hear the treble) , Bad coffee, Plastic sachets of sugar
