Cafe Van Gogh in Lambeth

This is a wonderful restaurant. Absolutely delicious food, so tasty and beautifully cooked. Wonderful warm service in a beautiful building. And it's a business with a social conscience. A starry starry gem of a place.

Always consistently wonderful. Please do visit. You really don’t have to be vegan to enjoy the delicious menu. Brilliant ethos, team, venue and food and drinks. Great for breakfast,snacks,coffee,lunch,tea,dinner

A lively little gem in Stockton. Full vegan menu. The tomato and rosemary sausage roll was delicious and so flavoursome! The bubble and squeak was a good portion and served with beans. The food was very well presented and fresh. All the staff were so lovely and friendly! Refreshing to see as most are so dismissive in chain restaurants. Highly recommended

Me and my partner went to Cafe Van Gogh while staying in the Lambeth area during a trip to London and absolutely loved our experience. We were sat upstairs in the adorably cozy and beautifully decorated restaurant and received consistently warm and welcoming service. Neither of us are vegans but can genuinely say this was one of the best meals we had on our last months trip throughout Europe. We had the blueberry pancakes which were delicious and fresh and the tomato rosemary sausage roll was flakey and flavorful. Another must have is the chipotle aioli served with a side of crispy garlic roasted potatoes. Everything was so good we went back the following day and took breakfast to go which was just as tasteful as eating in. We can not recommend Cafe Van Gogh enough and are very much looking forward to visiting again on our next trip!!

My daughter recommended eating here, so I met her for an evening meal. Really excellent experience with friendly greeting, and nice cosy atmosphere for a dark winter's night. The food was delicious and promptly served. Nice to experience new flavours and creative vegan cooking

As a vegan I love to seek out independent vegan businesses when I am visiting the Capital. This cafe was a short bus ride from Waterloo and is housed in a charming building. Outdoor seating when the weather is fine. Inside is relatively small so consider booking to avoid disappointment. Food was lovely, staff amazing - we will be back!

A meaningful place that can bring up your mood to the 🌟🌟🌟. Very warm environment with a great touch to the detail; like using similar chairs to the Van Gogh one and the lovely starry night ceiling. Although the aesthetics of the place is not the important thing. The important part is that they help people with disabilities to live happy lives. Lovely place

I visited yesterday whilst I was in London for the day. I have been following Van Gogh cafe on Instagram for a while and really wanted to go. The cafe is so lovely. I was welcomed at the door and given a large choice of seating. I didn’t go upstairs but was told that it was getting busy up there. I chose to sit in the back garden. I had the garden to myself initially but then it started to get busy (I arrived around 12 pm on a Tuesday) . There is a lovely spiral staircase to get to the upstairs area and there are Van Gogh paintings up. It was clean, bright and the food was amazing. I had avocado and sun dried tomatoes on sourdough with a cappuccino. I enjoyed it very much. The staff were nice and friendly. I would love to return again when I’m next in London. The cafe is easy to find, about 5 -10 Mins walk from a oval tube station.

This is a great spot to grab a vegan lunch. Staff is friendly and competent. Food menu is completely vegan, with many tasty options available. The site itself is spacious, with many seats outside and inside. We didn't wait long for our order and everything was delicious

I'd heard rave reviews about Cafe Van Gogh, so on Monday after the most recent, I booked for that week treating my friend to her first ever vegan meal. It's a beautiful venue with a wonderful concept of training the most engaging Special Needs people in hospitality which I absolutely applaud so I knew I just had to be here. Under the fun and efficient enthusiasm and guidance of Steve and Michelle, it's an absolute gem of a place. Their Sunday Roasts are legendary so I'm already planning on bringing three other friends for that soon It's popular as having both indoors - two floors - and two outdoors seating areas we were spoilt for choice but chose outside for a sunny Thursday. The vibe is relaxed, loving and happy and it's contagious to all of us who were present. I deliberately take photos of uninhabited areas to avoided having people shown, so don't let that give you the impression it wasn't busy, it was The food was delicious, having seasonal produce and new innovations.I can't wait to see what my next visit will have me devouring.I actually had all three desserts but thankfully my phone camera was playing up so I only have my friends photo of two of them and the avocado on sourdough was a hit with my non vegan friend . . .so much so, we've booked dinner for 8 September. Like all good restaurants I have my favourite waiters and today it was the lovely Billy and though I was looking forward to having Tristan too, he was already off shift. . . maybe next time. I really like their online booking system as it gives clear guidance, its quick and easy, with two email reminders to confirm my booking and offer the option to cancel so there's absolutely no reason for any guests to be a no show. I can't recommend this enough not just for lovely vegan fare, event nights and "pay it forward" {where you can by a meal or coffee for someone who can't afford one} it's just the whole ambiance, ethos and eating experience so I'm eager for them to thrive even more than they already are as they deserve to. I'm hoping they'll be able to create more branches may in North East London where I am . . . There is one accessibility toilet which is large, clean and roomy plus it has nice hand washes and cream, which are always important when dining out. The Oval {Northern Line} is a 5 minute walk away, simply exit crossing the road to the church, walk alongside it and it's the first right into Brixton Road, two blocks down, it couldn't be easier. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants great food, a wonderful atmosphere and community vibe, and who knows they're supporting the most deserving eager workers you could come across.

This cafe is a gem of a find. Perfect atmosphere, lovely staff, yummy vegan food and fantastic ethos. Can't recommend highly enough and will definitely be back next time we're in the area. Please support this fabulous little cafe.

I'm not a vegan but food was fab, service was excellent and they happily accommodated a raw vegan with a well thought and presented dish. Lovely atmosphere ,very wlecoming and relaxing.....oh and the building was special as well.

I was staying in an airb&b nearby and after googling local vegan food i came across Cafe Van Gogh. I’m so pleased i found it! I had a hot breakfast of sweet potato fritters with nduja beans. It was very tasty and came beautifully presented. I also had one of the biggest almond croissants i’ve ever seen! The member of staff who greeted me at the door was so incredibly attentive, happy and enthusiastic. The cafe is also beautifully decorated, with its own starry night sky in the upstairs dining area. I really enjoyed my visit and hope to come again! Thank you!

Great food, great atmosphere, great people. Highly recommend. Welcomed my dog too which was great. Our favourite place to eat

Still one of the best vegan restaurants not just in London, but anywhere! The food is always excellent, the staff and management are friendly and the ethos of Cafe Van Gogh is one of the things that sets them above other establishments. If you are in London, I heartily recommend a visit.

Friendly Staff, good service and great food. Went with 3 other friends and we all enjoyed the experience, unfortunately Burella was unavailable, so need to return. Would be happy to go again,

Perfect, I’m not vegan but I discovered Vegan food here and it’s so delicious even the vegetable sausage. The beans with potatoes is very good. Merci 🇫🇷

Incredible view and incredible setting. Staff were really nice and food service was really fast despite the cafe being really busy

I had some time to spare before a concert in the adjacent Christ Church. The atmosphere, service and menu in Cafe de Gogh were all delightful and it was fully booked for dinner mid Friday evening. Highly recommended.

Really lovely atmosphere. Resturant small so feels lovely. Decorated so well. Staff so polite & friendly. Great choice on the menu. Food delicious! We made a special trip just to visit and will go again.

I'm not vegan myself so was bit worried there wouldn't be something for me on the menu, but was pleasantly surprised. Though a bit on the pricey side, the atmosphere is really lovely and calm and the menu is very interesting. I got the Van...

This place is so brilliant. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is so relaxing and fun at the same time, and their ethos is lovely. Will be back again and again.

I have visited twice now, once for an anniversary dinner, and once for a Sunday roast with friends. The staff were so accommodating with the anniversary dinner, I brought a present in a few days before so that it would be a surprise for my...

Just discovered this place after recommendations from friends! Such a great social enterprise and the food and coffee is very tasty too! Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Excited to come back and try their vegan Sunday roast which I've heard great things about! Spread...

Lovely friendly place with a choice of tasty freshly cooked vegan fare. The starry starry night ceiling is a must to see too

Cafe Van Gogh is a beautiful plant based spot for coffee, brunch or lunch. It’s super instagramable with the quirky decor taking inspiration from its name sake. The food and drink is great and the whole thing is a bit for profit social enterprise to...

I have been eyeing up this place for a visit for a long time and finally booked to visit! It didn’t disappoint. With a seasonal menu and cocktails this place met the measure. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you

Had another wonderful visit to Cafe Van Gogh last night for my partner and I's 3 year anniversary. The food is AMAZING, staff are so lovely and attentive. I recommend this place to everyone!

I cannot recommend this beautiful place enough. The dishes are creative, hearty and delicious and there is an ambient, warm and magical setting. It is a rare and wonderful find. Go at any opportunity!

If you've not been to cafe van Gogh yet go tomorrow! It's amazing! The staff are the most attentive, polite and friendly that they could possibly be! The food was delicious and we didn't feel rushed at all! Thank you so much! We will be...

Not only the decor is absolutely brilliant, but the food is amazing as well! I am a French cheese loving person and their vegan cheese board is so amazing - you won’t even know it’s vegan! 10/10 would recommend

I’m obsessed with vegan Sunday lunch, so when I say this is the best, I mean it! The space is delightful, the food delicious and we have already booked to come back to try the Christmas menu. Zoe and Tessa looked after us so well...

I'm writing this because I just want to give credit to Tessa and Bethan and the rest of the team for this amazing dinner. The food was really good, the drinks were amazing and the service was incredible. We all felt so comfortable and it...

I am not a vegan and have never liked vegan food, but I must say I went with my husband and son for brunch. The food was amazing , I swapped tofu scrambled for garlic mushrooms which was great. My husband had the pancakes, the...

Friendly and informal, lovely chatty staff. Fairly limited menu, but that's a statement not a criticism. We sat upstairs (a tight corkscrew stairway) and got our full two hours-worth -- you reserve a 2-hour slot, so don't waste too much time examining the menu! Had...

I visited with a group of friends for my birthday and it was the first time I had been- what a treat! The staff were so friendly and attentive. I loved how they made us feel really at home. The service was brilliant and we...

I have been wanting to go here for a few months after seeing someone share a post on Instagram. I had a fabulous first visit for lunch with my daughter. The staff I met were all lovely and the service was great! I will definitely...

Excellent plant based food and drinks available here. Also bustling and busy on the weekend. I also just live the concept and ethics of this company doing good and serving amazing food!

I always pop into Van Gogh's for a coffee and the staff are always lovely and friendly. Just wanted to say thank you to the team that work there.

August: Came back here four years later and the food is just as delicious for takeaway. I got the Sri Lankan Meatballs, Chana Masala, Tomato Pakora and Coconut Sambal for £13.50 and the Marinated Smoked Tofu, Sweet Potato Rosti, Watercress Sauce and Aioli for £15....

Great place with very friendly service, chilled atmosphere and clean bathroom. Popped in for lunch, team were accommodating and food was good. The fries with "bacon salt" was very tasty. Lovely outside spot in the back, very serene and pretty. Will definitely return and try...

Really enjoyed our visit to this cafe. Delicious food and delicious dessert. Would recommend. Will definitely go back again when in the area. Note: I can't remember when I actually visited.

Great food and friendly service in a clean restaurant. More tables upstairs plus out the front and in a lovely little courtyard garden out the back.

I have wanted to visit this place since I transitioned to veganism 1.5 years ago but never got round to it as it takes an hour to get to. My friend and I visited on the weekend and were blown away by the food, service...

Very cosy and beautiful place with a hidden backyard, friendly staff and great social purpose. Will be visiting a lot!

What a find - just moved into the area and happened upon this little vegan cafe The food was exquisite and the staff lovely. One of the best things is the social enterprise nature of the business helping those with learning difficulties upskill and with...

We booked a table for 2 on a Friday night - very busy so we had to wait for a table for a minute. The staff were more than delightful about it though and acted very fast to get us seated as soon as possible....

I'd heard good things about the Cafe Van Gogh and I was not disappointed when I visited it for lunch. There was a great range of vegan food from substantial to lighter options. The staff were friendly and helpful. The decor is based around Van...

Been meaning to visit Cafe Van Gogh for ages and it didn’t disappoint. Food was great and good value and the staff were super friendly. I had the £10 meal deal which was a huge sandwich, chips and a drink. Really cool decor too.

Can't recommend enough as a place to eat. The food is top class, and all the staff are just wonderful. Not just the waiting staff but also the contact we had before we visited (one of our party was ill so couldn't make it). It...

Fresh and delicious food. The “Fried potato bread, buttered leeks and tartare sauce” was out of this world. The space is super romantic with exposed brick work, plants everywhere and mood lighting. We were only sad that we didn’t have time for dessert (we had...

A lovely little cafe/restaurant right next to an old church. The friendly staff and the environmental/ethical approach makes one feel very welcome. To top it all off, the food is amazing, especially the vegan sunday roast (as pictured above).

My friend and I have been to Cafe Van Gogh a few times recently, and every single time it has been excellent. We took our partners at the weekend for the first time and they loved it too. The food is delicious and the staff...

A small cafe, heavy name and a wonderful place to hang out. USP is being absolutely vegan, having a chill intellectual vibe and changing menu every 6 weeks. Cool. Food was innovative and delicious. I took Kombucha on side. Wasn't disappointed. Large black olives were...

I went with friends for Sunday Lunch - they are vegans and although I am not, everything I have ever eaten here has been so so delicious! I am so lucky to have this place just around the corner so as well as a number...

Quirky small cafe/restaurant with a comprehensive fully vegan menu. My son and I went on recommendation and I was so glad we did. The staff are friendly and attentive, the menu is wonderful and the drinks as local as you could possibly find. I loved...

The staff were so so welcoming and friendly from the moment we walked in - the chef even came to our table to ask my boyfriend his name so they could all sing Happy Birthday to him (with a slice of cake!) at the end...

A nice place in a good location but our food (a Sunday roast and a burger) was only "OK". Vegan meat alternative are getting really good but these really lacked much texture or taste and the roast potatoes tasted as if they were reheated from...

Beautiful interior if you like Van Gogh you would love this place. Staff are super friendly, food was great, had the bacon sarni, hot apple and cinnamon and a cheeky daiquiri. All of which were super tasty.

Delicious food, amazing staff , all at a good price. Certainly recommend this place Very quaint place with pleasant atmosphere

Steve (the owner) welcomed us with open arms, made a real effort to get to know us, and invited us to come on a Sunday for vegan roast. We made reservations and returned the following weekend for a terrific vegan roast upstairs under the gorgeous...

Wow - what an amazing place. Superb value for money. The staff were so friendly and the food was delicious. Quick service and will definitely return soon. I cannot recommend his place enough! The menu changes regularly but the fake bacon burger was incredible. Chocolate...

I went to many vegan restaurants but this was by far the worst. Very pricy for this quality. Won't come back for sure. But maybe this UK version of vegan. And I just used to better taste I'm other country's.

Wonderful, they offer the option of oat milk, not "normal milk". With less exploitation of the planet's resources, less water, less physical space. A coffee that contributes to evolution.

I only popped in for a coffee on the way to work but I'll definitely make it a regular stop- the staff were friendly and welcoming, the vibe was fun and the coffee was great. I'm usually a cow's milk drinker but would definitely go...

We had a family reunion over lunch upstairs. We really appreciated the cosy space and relaxed ambience, and the service was friendly and attentive. The food was really tasty too, with a variety of dishes that were totally new to us. The sorbets for dessert...

This cafe is a non-profit social enterprise. training and employing people with learning difficulties and mental health challenges. Customers can contribute to the 'pay it forward' scheme, meaning a hot drink is served for someone who can't afford it. It is listed as 100% vegan...

Being a vegan myself next time I visit London will make sure I visit your cafe. Well done for giving it him back.

Super friendly, the staff was very good and I've had a very enjoyable experience!! The coffee with plant based milk was fantastic and food was fresh and delicious!!

EXCELLENT oat milk cappuccinos!!! They use the best oat milk on earth but also offer other plant milk alternatives, such as soy. I really love everything about the mission of this non-profit vegan restaurant. Can’t wait to bring my friends here. 🌱

One of the loveliest café’s in London - beautiful food, wonderful coffee, ample and delectable dining choices! The best I’ve been to in a while.

Great place, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Oat milk lattes are the best! A great fully vegan cafe that all locals should visit.

Best coffee I had in a long time. The workers in the cafe are very friendly. They do the right and proper thing to do and are a fully vegan establishment.

Great staff, great food and great coffee. Wonderful place. Well worth a visit. Great range of food and nice environment.

This is an amazing place. Real gem. The food atmosphere and service was excellent. Would highly recommend. I didn't know what to expect was really impressed.

We absolutely loved our trip here. It is in a wonderful location just next to what looked like a church and is a great cosy place. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly

Lovely friendly staff, yummy vegan coffees, great value, now my go to place to get my caffeine hit!!

You do us Vegans proud 👍 great atmosphere, friendly service, and the food exceptional. A big Thanq to all.

An excellent service and excellent quality. Can't rate this place high enough.. A must for any thirsty traveller

Oat milk cappuccino is out of this world. I was offered soya or oat. Might try dots next time. Can’t wait to visit again fir another lovely oat milk coffee.

Lovely place, excellent service. The waiter let me know very clearly when I ordered that it was a vegan cafe so for the hot chocolate that I ordered, I was given the option of oat or soy milk. I chose oat and it was the...

Looking forward to visiting again and having my choice of cruelty free options and not needing to double check menus to avoid dairy products and animal products. See you again soon

My experience from start to finish was absolutely flawless; the staff were incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, the food was incredible and great surroundings. We will back very soon :)

I had heard around that they had a good almond milk latte but wow I was really impressed. The service was superb! I can't wait to visit again when I get back to London again :-)

I love this place, their food and coffee is amazing. The staff are lovely and their ethical and eco values are inspiring. Let’s hope this is the future of hospitality. Well done in paving the way.

Amazing food, incredible staff, lovely atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone coming here, perfect for any occasion & incredible ethos. Would come here again 100%

Balanced, flavour packed home made food that's NOT pretending to be meat. Great place for a lunch meet and passionate staff.

Managed to get back to CVG today at long last and it was as lovely as ever. Delicious food, great vibe and really kind, caring and very welcoming staff.

The best vegan restaurant I have ever eaten in. The service was excellent, our server was very helpful in answering questions about anything we didn't understand. We sat outside on a warm evening, an absolute delight. All our meals were very tasty, we tried each...

Amazing local vegan cafe! My mum and I had an incredible experience here, it was relatively easy to find, too. The service was second to none with a wonderful server. The brunch was delicious and it was so great to find a fully vegan menu....

Excellent service. Great ethos. Wonderful food. Not much else to say really except this lovely eatery is highly recommended.

I recently visited this restaurant with a few friends on a weekend evening. Unfortunately this was a disappointing experience all in all. First, the positives: The atmosphere was lovely. We had an outdoor table and it was next to a lovely flowering garden. Some of...

At a time when vegetarian and vegan restaurants seem to be disappearing, Cafe Van Gogh is thriving due to sheer determination. Even during lockdown they did their best to open when they could, but always within the guidelines. We had a wonderful birthday lunch there...

I love this place. The food is always good. You will never leave hungry as the portions are very generous. And it is very good value for money. It is so hard to pick a favourite dish. But if pushed, I would say the Sunday...

I've been to Cafe Van Gogh multiple times and had an exceptional experience and even better food each and every time. The staff are incredible, make you feel so welcome from remembering you name to accomodating complex dietary requirements (spoke to chefs and came up...

Chill spot with consistently good coffee. Quiet upstairs. Food is also spot-on. Good cakes, veg breakfast. Tried their veg nut wellington a few weeks ago, and it was delicious.

Fantastic venue, especially upstairs with the vaulted ceiling and beautiful plants. Staff are always friendly and accommodating and the food is delicious. Been several times and never disappointed. Even took my non vegan parents and they really enjoyed their visit. The Christmas lunch was especially...

Cafe Van Gogh is the place to go for homely, satisfying Vegan food in really special surroundings.  We visited on Sunday and went for The Roast, the Wellington was exceptional, full of texture and flavour as was the gravy and the red cabbage. My eight...

Attention to detail is everywhere in this beautiful vegan restaurant. Lovely colours and textures, and that’s just the decor. The plant based menu is imaginative and the staff are pleased to advise. I’d recommend the delicious starters and the hearty Sunday roast with chunky roasties...

Just sublime! From the great service to the best vegan burger and chips, I have ever had! Really really good value for money.
