Great vegan food! - Edit
Love all their foods: delicious kurumafu, gimpa, cauliflower, egg sandwiches, butter shio pan, potato salad, curry etc
Read moreIt’s not a big menu but it’s delicious and in Japan vegan places are rare so I appreciate them trying.
Highly recommended.
Pros: Delicious vegan food , Take out, Delivery
Cons: Service was slow once on Sunday, Delivery croquettes were a bit too oily, Place is small but that’s ok

I couldn’t have enough of the tomago sandos they were so delicious and my non vegan husband confirmed they were just as good as the non-vegan ones!

Come after 10:30am - Edit
Breakfast menu (8:00-10:30) is very limited (three sets that are basically bread and a drink), but the lunch menu looks a lot better. The egg sandwich has a pretty convincing flavour and it was tasty, albeit on the smaller side.

Delicious! - Edit
We got some take away salt and buttered rolls and some walnut cinnamon buns to take away. I wished I could have taken away more but I am learning as much as I try I can’t eat everything at every vegan cafe! The salt butter rolls had such a nice flavour. Then I tried the walnut cinnamon bun and wow! Just incredible, flavour and texture.
Read moreStaff were really nice, the space looks nice. You can sit in there but we were walking around as usual.

Friendly staff, reasonable prices, good food. Nothing bad to say about this place. It’s not the most incredible but a very good vegan cafe to stop by for cake, lunch or dinner. The taste of the food was very very good!
Read moreWe ordered the egg sandwich for takeout and I personally didn’t think it was anything special and it was lacking some salt. But that’s up to personal taste I guess.

Super yum - Edit
Great spot with some super yummy basics. The grape parfait was soooo good!
Read moreAll food is shojin ryori; Japanese Buddhist food which is naturally vegan and excludes alliums such as garlic, onion, leeks, chives, etc. Super great for those with intolerance to these FODMAP foods.
Indoor sits a about 16 with another 8 outside. Offer take away as well.
Ordered the gimbap and deep-fried Kurumafu set, rooibos tea, and grape parfait.

Amazing vegan food, worth a visit! - Edit
I was at the castle and decided to jump on the bus to try this place out, it was about 20m from the castle and 100% worth it! I got there about 1.30 and the famous egg sandwiches had sold out but I got a wonderful hearty meal, tea and got my hands on a vegan fruit sandwich I only dreamed of when of coming over to visit! 10/10 would recommend! Staff are really friendly and the place really goes along with the vegan principles with some tea profits being donated to an animal welfare charity 😊

Cozy atmosphere and great food - Edit
We had a great time here - it was a rainy afternoon and this place felt perfect to relax and unwind a little.
Read moreThe menu is very large so we had trouble deciding what to order. In the end, we ordered a bit of everything (check the photos attached). Everything tasted extremely fresh and you could feel it was made with love. We were especially satisfied with the baked goods they offer - “butter” breadrolls were perfect.
If you want to take a break from all the sightseeing or just unwind a little after a stressfull day, we definitely recommend this cozy place!
Pros: Large all-vegan menu, Great food, Baked goods

Fantastic vegan cafe - Edit
Little gem here in Osaka.
Read moreIt’s located a bit outside the centre but it’s worth the journey.
Fully vegan menu with tasty food like gimbap, kurumafu curry, breads, pasties and cakes.
Not that expensive. Staff doesn’t speak a lot of English but the menu speaks for itself.
Wish I had discover this place sooner.

Nice food and finally got to try a fruit sandwich - Edit
Nice food and the staff was nice as well. They were however hovering around us and as soon as it looked like we had finished something they interrupted our meal to take it away. The iced coffee was sweetended with a syrup I didn't like.

Great vegan food - Edit
The place is very nice and the food is great.
Read moreLike most Japanese restaurants they offer water free of charge.
We chose the "vegan gimbap and and deep fried kurumafu set" and the "deep fried kurumafu set", which comes with rice and salad. They both include a small daily soup.
Everything was delicious!!! The portions are filling, but for 600 yens you can add dessert to the menu, so we obviously did that:) We chose the caramel banana pie and the chocolate pie which were both a bit dry for our taste, and the sweet potato pudding, which was very nice and light.
They also have frozen desserts for you to take home, you can put them in the microwave or eat them in 2-3h. We chose the "earl grey and white bean filling anpan bread" (which is really really tiny) and the melon bread.
Cons: Dry pie
MERCYVeganFactory
Thank you so much for visiting Mercy Vegan Factory! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the set meals you ordered. I’m sorry to hear that the cakes were a bit dry; I’ve passed your feedback on to our pastry chef. As for the frozen bread, it might be perfect for breakfast or a light snack. You can enjoy it in various ways—microwave, toaster, or simply letting it thaw naturally. We hope to welcome you again soon. Thank you once again for visiting us today!

Good food - Edit
You can also take a sandwich for takeaway, which can be a lifesaver in Japan (so you don't need to read the labels in stores)

Thank you for visiting us. We think it would be difficult to get a 100% vegan sandwich in Japan. Vojvodi's-SAN comment "Lifesaver". I see! I thought that made sense. We also have frozen bread and other items available. They can be eaten deliciously after thawing naturally, so please come and try them again. Thank you for your heartwarming comment. We'll keep doing our best!

Great takeaway options! - Edit
I was in Osaka on New Years during the 7.0 magnitude earthquake (which was still a 5.0 magnitude by the time it got to Osaka) We decided to stay at our air bnb but had food delivered & having a fully vegan restaurant be open for New Year’s day was amazing!!! I got a bunch of stuff to help me get through the day. I wasn’t disappointed with anything! I’ll definitely eat here again.
Read morePros: Absolutely delicious food , Lots of choices

Thank you very much for visiting MERCY Vegan Factory. We can imagine how frightening it must have been to experience the earthquake during the New Year. We, too, were quite scared.
Read moreAt our restaurant, we always strive to make meal times special. Since there are very few vegan and vegetarian restaurants in Japan, we decided to stay open during the New Year to provide hospitality for our guests.
Please do visit us again when you come back to Japan. If you let us know in advance, we would be delighted to welcome you back.

Delicious curry and good selection of baked treats - Edit
My partner and I both got the curry with an iced milk tea and both of us thoroughly enjoyed it. The curry sauce was delicious, it was well spiced and full of flavour. There was a good selection of well cooked vegetables which provided a nice range of flavours and textures. The fried seitan meat chunks were excellent. They had a good crispy coating and I enjoyed their texture too.
Read moreI got a caramel and banana tart for pudding and it was fine. The flavours were good but the pastry was a bit soft. My partner had the chocolate cake, this had a good bake and good flavour without being too intense with chocolate flavour.
We got some melonpan to takeaway for breakfast the next day. We'd been on the lookout for vegan melonpan but failed to get one so far. This was good, the bread/sponge part was chocolate and the outer biscuit layer had a nice crunch to it. They kept well for the next day too.
