Garden of Eden in Windsor and Maidenhead

Good food, really nice deserts, lovely hot chocolate and hot drinks / smoothie selection. We are regulars here as we are vegan and often bring our non-vegan friends. Great for toddlers as there’s an enclosed play area. Staff are friendly.

Amazing little gem hidden away in Daniel’s store in Windsor. We absolutely love the vegan and vegetarian menu and the desserts are so scrumptious!! My absolute favourite is the prana chai. Very special place and an oasis in the middle of bustling Windsor. The owner Manni is so generous apart from being a very talented vegan chef. We tried the new vegan tiramisu not yet on menu and it was absolutely delicious . Manni generously sent us home with four complementary slices and we savoured every bite!! Thank you Manni for a wonderful afternoon!

Best vegan food I've had in ages and the prices.... definitely value for money. The food here is absolutely delicious! There's so much choice it's ridiculous! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The staff went the extra mile when we asked for a takeaway and they are so friendly! I Highly recommend if you are vegan or vegetarian or you just want really amazing food!

The Garden of Eden in Windsor is an absolute hidden gem and a must-visit for anyone in the area. Don’t be fooled by the location of this restaurant, from the moment we arrived, the warm and inviting atmosphere from the servers made it clear this is a special spot. The real highlight, however, is the incredibly talented chef and owner, Mani. His cooking is nothing short of extraordinary—whether you're vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or just a fan of exceptional food, Mani has something for everyone. Every dish is packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and made with the finest ingredients. I recently visited with my family, and we all agreed it was the best meal we’ve had in ages. The flavors were so vibrant, and the variety of options catered to all our dietary needs without compromising on taste. Plus, the prices are fantastic for the quality of food you get. What really set this experience apart, though, was Mani himself. He came out and took the time to engage with us personally, sharing the story behind his ingredients and the thoughtful details he’s put into every aspect of the restaurant. It was such a breath of fresh air to hear a chef and owner who genuinely cares about his customers and his craft. His passion for food and his commitment to excellence shine through in everything he does. The Garden of Eden is also perfect for families. They have a kids' play area, making it an ideal spot for a family outing. And to top it all off, they’re dog-friendly, so our furry family members were welcome too! If I could give a 7/5 rating, I absolutely would. I honestly can’t wait to return, and I’m already dreaming of the day Mani opens a restaurant in Kensington so I can enjoy his cooking more often. If you’re in Windsor or planning a visit, do not miss this place—it’s a true treasure for food lovers and families alike!

We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant, the food was delicious and the staff were so helpful. I will be returning every time I visit Windsor.

What an amazing veggie restaurant. The menu offers a wide range of food , from coffee and cake, to breakfast and lunch options. I had the full English and it did not disappoint. The portion was massive, and very tasty. I definitely can’t wait to come back and eat here again. Only slight complaint if I had to think of one, was that the food took a little long to arrive. However from my view, it just means it was freshly cooked.

We are regulars in this wonderful establishment and this time, I organised a celebration for my husband's birthday with a group of friends. The lovely Mani reserved us a table and ensured that we had a sumptuous lunch with the best personal service - as ever! The food was sublime and the atmosphere was buzzing but yet still chilled. Thank you, Mani!

Really lovely cakes, and the staff are wonderful. Very welcoming and the menu had lots of options. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic breakfast, whether vegan or not! Absolutely delicious! Staff very attentive! Will definitely go again! Lots of gluten free options.

Perfect for lunch or a coffee and piece of cake. Mostly vegan with some dairy options and a great range of vegan cakes and pastries. A very wide menu for a small cafe. Run by lovely people who always make us welcome. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

I want to give a heartfelt recommendation for 'Garden of Eden' Restaurant/coffee shop, located on the 1st floor of Daniel Department Store, Peascod St, Windsor. If you are plant-based, vegetarian or even if you're not, try this eatery - you will not be disappointed. We were struck by the lovely warm welcome from the wonderful and charming owner, Mani, who has been a head chef at various establishments. He is very happy to talk about any specific dietary requirements and also caters for gluten-free customers. If people prefer dairy cheese in their meals, then this is also happily catered for. The array of breakfasts, pastries, pizzas, wraps, sandwiches, snacks, desserts, hot and cold drinks is just amazing. We sat at a lovely table for 2 overlooking the bustle of Peascod Street. The restaurant itself is very pleasant and incorporates tables and chairs, easy chairs and sofas and there is even a play area for small children. We had the Full English breakfast, with a side of Macaroni Cheese and a gorgeous chai latte. We also tucked into some brownies and took some cheesecake for later. The food and drink were phenomenally tasty, beautifully presented with huge portions and clearly prepared with love. Mani showed us the spotless kitchen and the separate areas and cooking facilities to cater for any gluten-free customers. We can't wait to go back and try absolutely everything else on the menu and already know that it will be our favourite place to go!

Really nice gluten free and vegan food. We had the tomato soup which came with the best gluten free garlic bread I have ever been given in a restaurant. We also had the cheesecake which was nice and lemony and a deeply intense and chocolate gluten free vegan brownie. Good tea too! You can't go wrong with clipper tea!! Friendly and allergy aware staff. Would definitely recommend it for any coeliac!

Great selection of Gluten free food. It’s so difficult to get GF for all ages when you go out. Children and adults catered for with popular options. Separate play area for little ones or sit by the windows with views of the high street. It’s more spacious than the other two cafes and has a very relaxed atmosphere .

I have been to vegan restaurants all over the world and this place wowed me! The food was just beyond! Hearty, clean, authentic, and soo delicious!! Manny the owner made sure to provide superior service and even generously threw in a filling salad for us to share. I wish we lived in Windsor!!! We thought we would starve on our visit to windsor castle and this definitely made our day!!

This place is an amazing hidden gem! If you're looking for a cosy and homely atmosphere with a varied and delicious menu, you need to visit. We had the best dairy free mac n cheese I've ever had (a dairy option also available) and the cakes are incredible, especially the vegan options. There is even a small play area, perfect for toddlers/babies/young kids. Can't wait to go back!

Absolutely amazing!! As a vegan I really struggle to find menus that offer more than 2 options- but today…I struggled to decide on what I was to order- I decided on first ever full English- and it did not disappoint! I enjoyed it so much that we’re going back tomorrow! I also got a side of vegan Macaroni cheese and OH MY GOODNESS- words cannot even describe. The staff were so welcoming and accommodating- Manjinder in particular showed exceptional customer service. Sadly we live an hour away, but 100% will make a trip back to Windsor in the near future, purely to visit The Garden Of Eden. See you tomorrow!

Delicious food and lovely service. Everything was totally Delicious and everyone was just lovely. Lovely chai latte, one of the best I have had. Mac and cheese, wraps and chips and sweet potato fries were all perfect.

A great little restaurant - great Coffee , you would not know their food was vegan! A must for all those Vegan or dietary intolerant people who get taken to restaurants that treat vegans and allergic / intolerant as irrelevant. Plenty of choice for a snack or meal. Open during shopping hours.

Excellent food great flavours. This is a vegetarian/vegan restaurant with gluten free options but didn’t need the meat as good portions. Really recommend the rainbow salad

I had a little time before I was to meet a colleague and was browsing around Daniel's store when I came across a gem of a cafe. It's hard to find somewhere that serves us veggies, and the choice was quite amazing. I had a lovely oversized coffee and a sausage roll. only it wasn't a meat sauce, but it tasted like one. I do recommend this place to anyone.

Great staff, good play area for children and absolutely delicious food. We were served by Tina, who went above and beyond for us and was incredibly helpful. We shall be coming back to Garden of Eden to try even more of the food!

Had a lovely experience coming to work with friends at the cafe this week. Had comfy seating, plenty of plug sockets, warm staff and great affordable food. Could'nt believe the quality for the price. Definitely will be making this a regular spot. Strong free wifi too.

I cannot rate Mani and the team at Garden of Eden highly enough. The food is absolutely incredible, and the service second to none. Mani is a fantastic chef - every bite was delicious. My husband rates the vegan macaroni cheese the best he's ever tasted (which is high praise indeed). We came for lunch and then breakfast the next day. The place to eat for veggies and vegans in Windsor.

What a find! 100% vegetarian! It isn't very well advertised, but I think it is fairly new. I was looking at the new layout of Daniel and saw a sign of a vegetarian cafe. I think they have the best corner of the store! Their menu is very good and hoping to go there again soon. Their service, food presentation and the quality of the meal is simply amazing. Absolutely love that they served my delicious, cheese, tomato and onion toastie on a wooden platter with tasty crisps. As a vegetarian getting a toastie from other chain cafes is a bit worrying as they can use the same toastie maker for the meat toasties too. Since this is a 100% vegetarian restaurant, I don't have to worry about that! Their vegan patisserie is next on my list to try for an afternoon coffee. They also have various vegan meal options. Highly recommend this lovely cafe to all vegetarians out there! :-)

Myself and my baby have been to this cafe many of times since it opened and honestly cannot fault it! We’ve introduced the cafe to many friends/family as the food is delicious as is the lovely customer service. You get so much for your money and there is so much options for GF and or vegans. There is a lovely aesthetically pleasing soft play for the kids and it is such a comfortable environment for mums, babies, families, friends or the elderly looking to relax with a cup of tea and cake! The drinks are also delicious (hot and cold - so much choices and all so so delicious and well presented) My son cries when we have to leave - haha! We are already looking forward to our next visit. THANK YOU

Stumbled across this hidden gem whilst in Daniels. We ordered coffee and cake but had been looking for a meal. They re opened the kitchen for us and made us all amazing wraps. They really do go above and beyond with customer service and really made our day. The food,cakes and coffee were all delicious and very reasonably priced. Wish we lived closer as we would definitely become regulars and couldn't recommend them more highly. Genuinely lovely people.

We discovered Garden of Eden by accident when wondering round Windsor for the day and what a find it was! The staff were so lovely and despite the fact the kitchen had closed, when they heard we wouldn’t be in the area again they reopened it for us and made us some of the best food I have ever tasted. Having gone in only expecting to get coffee and cakes it was delightful to be able to have a meal too! They were so attentive and they really made our day, even giving us some of their turmeric blend when we asked how they made their turmeric lattes. The staff at Garden of Eden really set the standard for customer service!

This is a hidden gem of Windsor, located on the first floor of Daniels next to the childrenswear section. We stopped by this afternoon for coffee and will definitely return. Lovely comfortable clean and airy surroundings overlooking the high street with views of the castle, wonderful coffee and fantastic service. Would highly recommend.
