Brilliant. - Edit
Upon arrival at our reservation time, we were greeted by a member of staff and shown to our seats. The waiter arrived soon afterwards with menus. We did not have to wait long for our food to arrive. Ordered a variety of vegan foods that was all great.

Amazing tasty food - Edit
Whilst it’s not 100% vegan, there is a separate vegan section on the menu and the food was amazing. In fact I didn’t see any meat being served in the restaurant which was a bonus! I wouldn’t normally recommend a non-vegan place but it was amazing. The food, the friendly staff and the overall atmosphere. I’d definitely go back.

Wow - Edit
Would be 5 stars if that was available. So much choice and not just in the "vegan section". We had hoppers, mango curry, beetroot baduma, sri-tatos and kotthu and it was all absolutely gorgeous. Wish this was closer to home!

Good value, vibes and lots of vegan options - Edit
A good amount of vegan options I tried a few of the different dishes and they were all delicious. Not too expensive and there are some interesting cocktails with original flavours. Definitely worth visiting.

Birthday visit - Edit
Visit with my family to celebrate my birthday (after a fabulous steam train ride!)
Read moreMenu has good vegan options and we shared a selection of potatoes, beetroot, dahl dishes and fried rice. All very tasty with a bit of heat. Would return when we are next in Cheltenham, I believe there’s a branch in Oxford which we would try.
Pros: Different vegan dishes, Good atmosphere , Quick service

Would give 5* if I could! - Edit
Fantastic selection of vegan options! For a non vegan place they cater really well to a variety of diets. I'm not the best with spicy food so I wouldn't eat here regularly but it was really tasty.

Great value Tasty food - Edit
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here. My 7 friends and I visited for a last minute dinner. The waiters were incredibly accommodating.
Read moreThe style is laid back and upbeat. We received a great welcome and the good service continued throughout.
The menu was a pleasure to choose from. The vast variety of dishes Inc pumpkin (recommended)or beetroot curry were fantastic. Most were very coconut based with a mix of spices full of flavour. My meat eating friends were happy too.
The cocktails were incredible (in particular the cardamon infused espresso martini).
I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, I would happily and return and I encourage others to visit.

Fantastic large vegan menu - Edit
Found this laid back Sri Lankan place whilst in the Cotswolds and I'm pleased we made the journey!
Read moreThey've got a whole vegan and it's absolutely fantastic.
It all looked great so we ordered every vegan dish (about 12 I think..) and a hopper each.
All the dishes were all really good, but half of them were amazing. The dahl is one of the best I've ever had.
We took a doggy bag home and had it again the next night and it was just as good.
They also do really good cocktails.
It's a chain and growing which isn't surprising as it was busy at 7pm.
Please open in East London, you'd do really well out here!
Pros: Loads of vegan options , Fantastic flavours, Great cocktails
Cons: Chair stools aren't very comfy

Lots of vegan options, and amazing cocktails! - Edit
A great place to go with a group of friends for some cocktails and a good selection of tasty dishes to share. They have a really great “can’t decide” menu option, in which the waiter will surprise you with a selection of smaller dishes depending on your dietary preferences (vegan, veggie, meat etc.) I would highly recommend this option, as you get to try so many of their dishes! The cocktail selection is also fabulous 🙌🏻

The most veganic non-vegan place in town - Edit
TCT has always been a regular staple in our eating out options since we moved to the area 9 years ago. This year was my 50th and although we spent that in London we just had to make a visit on my Birth-week😄
Read moreThere are as many vegan options on the menu as there are meat, seafood and dairy, which is great for the rest of my family.
The general idea is to pick a number of smaller dishes and the menu is chosen to be complementary so you can’t really go wrong.
If you’re not a big drinker then the mocktails are for you.
Both the hoppers (coconut milt pancake with a number of fillings) and the roti are divine.
The polenta mushrooms are NOT for sharing😄
The curries are flavoursome and well balanced. Fat sister is my favourite.
The kotthu was the only recent disappointment, they have recently added soya balls to the dish and there’s less roti in with it, but is also has a little bit more of a kick.
Pros: So many vegan options, Great atmosphere, super friendly, Small portions to try out new dishes

so many flavours! - Edit
this was our first time at the coconut tree after many recommendations and we were not disappointed. there are so many vegan options to choose from that we couldn’t decide! they have an option on the menu called ‘can’t decide’ where the chefs pick a few dishes for you to try and it was perfect for us. the mango curry was so tasty (if a little spicy!) we also had the pumpkin curry, mushrooms, fried cabbage, carrots etc, a hopper each and roti which were also so delicious. so many flavours and so much food! we left very full and satisfied, we can’t wait to return to try more vegan goodness

This restaurant has the best Sri Lankan food I've had since spending four months in Sri Lanka. Wow! We went twice in four days, and I'm tempted to sneak back there one more time before we head back to London.

Went here last night with a group of friends, fabulous atmosphere and food was absolutely amazing! We went for the ‘can’t decide’ vegan option where they choose a selection of dishes for you. The food just kept on coming and it was delicious! There was a great outside seating area too. Will definitely be going again :)

AHHHH my favourite restaurant in cheltenham - Edit
WOW WO WOW. Where to begin. Honestly a vibeeeeyyy place to hang out, but delicious food and it's nearly vegan, in fact I think they've got rid of nearly all their red meat. Love that heart towards the planet. In the heart of the community, near School House Cafe the two are bossing the place for vegans in St Paul's. The food options are insane, like so so nice and as nice as the other food on the menu which is always a good sign. I'd recommend the dhal, the fat sister curry, the mushrooms and in fact anything vegan. Its delightful. Cocktails are divine and the atmosphere is not one to miss!!! Love you guys, keep going!!!

It’s been a while since I enjoyed eating here, but I love the food so much that it stands out in my memory. There are plenty of delicious options for vegans to choose from here and it has that ‘tapas’ vibe which gives you the chance to share with a friend (or go crazy on your own!) 💕🌱

Death by bliss! - Edit
I always read reviews & try n work out if I trust them. Please trust me. You won’t regret it. This restaurant and the food it is producing is hands down the Best food I’ve eaten as a vegan... simply superb! I’m still thinking about it 2 nights later... we had 12 dishes between 2 of us! And I wished I could’ve had more.. had to walk 30 mins to try n compensate! So full.. amazing value for money. Amazing friendly, super quick and attentive staff. Just not a single negative... waste no time and book up now. You’ll thank me! You’re welcome! I can’t give 5* Because it’s not fully vegan... but I would have 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌱
