Limited Selections, Ok for Coffee/Cake but not 100% Vegan - Edit
Quaint Cafe. This was one of 2 Jaunty Goat Cafes in Chester and this one used to be the only vegan one, but now Since at least May 2025, it added Dairy/Eggs to make it now being vegetarian.
Read morePros: Cute Cafe, Avocado Toast was delicious
Cons: Only Plant Protein Option (chicken club) was out. , no longer vegan., We ordered vegan magerine, but served dairy butter

Lovely visit - but no longer 100% vegan - Edit
Came for Sunday brunch to this location as it was fully vegan (to our knowledge); unfortunately we didn’t notice the previous review before we went, otherwise we’d have saved ourselves a bit of confusion when reading the menu! Despite this, I really enjoyed the Boston beans and my partner rated the avo toast (we were asked when ordering if we wanted to add eggs…) The coffee here is excellent and the carrot cake was incredibly fresh. The staff were also really friendly, and it’s a nice bright airy space for brunch. Card only.

Great place for breakfast, lunch, cakes etc. - Edit
Very tasty food and drink! Many sourdough sandwich and open sandwich options. Delicious cakes, though the selection dwindles through the day as they get eaten up.

Lovely - Edit
Perfect little stop off for a hot drink and pastry. I had the pain au chocolate which was perfectly crispy and chocolatey. Great that there was a selection of things as it’s a totally vegan place.

Jaunty Goat - Edit
Popped in after 3pm so kitchen was closed. A few pastries were on offer, I had the pain au chocolat which was nice. Decent chai latte too. This store is completely vegan, the other Jaunty Goat cafe nearby is vegetarian.

Oh my girlfriend absolutely loved tomato soup. It was fine with a hint of basil to add the vibrancy! With some lovely artisan bread - as per the accompanying photograph!

Not super child friendly - Edit
Stopped here for lunch, it had a very limited menu I felt. They offer half potions for kids which is good, however doesn’t feel like the most kid friendly place, no offer of highchair and no changing facilities in the toilet. The avocado on toast was nice and the chocolate croissant was very good. Probably wouldn’t return if I’m the area would rather try somewhere different.

Tasty cake - Edit
Quick and friendly service. The cake was good but I really wish it wasn't pre-cut as the edges were dry. Nice to be able to get a decent vegan cake though, and allergens were clearly labelled too.

Scandi chic - Edit
Love the scandiness of this place. Our first visit to this lovely place was just for drinks so will come again to sample the food. My americano ☕️ was just right.
Read moreEdit: return visit Saturday 23/09/23 for breakfast. I had the avocado on sourdough toast and B had heritage tomatoes on sourdough toast. Both were delicious, seasoned well and kept nice and simple. Look forward to returning to sample more of the menu.

Kala namak will change your life - Edit
Kala namak! Get the plant-based eggs. Kala namak will change your life. It's changed ours. As veggies trying to be more vegan, we know we'd miss scrambled eggs. Once you've tried theirs here as we did last month, you will immediately do as we did and hunt down kala namak (a big South Asian store will have it, it's also known as black salt) as it's the secret ingredient that finally transforms scrambled tofu (which I've had loads of times) into something that's genuinely better than scrambled eggs. I made it three times in 24 hours, it's so good. I returned today to try the original again, where they very helpfully gave me their recipe which was super similar to the one I've been using on the RainbowPlantLife website. Today I also had an excellent coconut mocha. Last time we had an incredible polenta cake. Service is sublime at both branches. Part of the reason I returned to Chester was to explore their menu further, which I'll be doing this week. It's rare that you find a place so consistently excellent.
Read morePros: Plant-based eggs better than real eggs, Polenta cake, Great service
Cons: It's not cheap, Portions could be bigger

Coffee and pastry - Edit
Popped in with my parents to grab a coffee as we passed by... thrilled to find it was completely vegan (parents less pleased)! But staff were so lovely and convinced them to try oat milk in their coffee! Even got two thumbs up from my Mum for the vegan chocolate croissant which is high praise indeed!
