Plantarium in Stratford-on-Avon

The pastry on the left doesn’t have enough taste though the dough is good! Nice to find a vegan pastry except Pret’s

Incredible vegan cafe in the heart of Stratford. Relaxed feel with a dedicated following. We had the avos and ‘feta’ on toast, and the ooomlette. Decent portions, absolutely delicious. Should have tried the cakes.

The best vegan food I have ever had. Highly recommend the shwarma! A bit pricey but the portion sizes are huge so very fair. Great service.

Such a lovely cafe for lunch and cake. They looked after me and my dog really well, with very nice staff. The menu is varied and original, with generous portions and flavour. I'll definitely visit again next time I'm in Stratford!

Fantastic vegan cakes, lovely atmosphere and very friendly service. The café was in a central location, just around the corner from Shakespeare's birthplace. Indoor and outdoor seating and a great menu.

Best veggie cafe I’ve ever been to. Great food (very large portions too) and a really nice drink and cake selection. Friendly staff and cute vibe

Absolutely wonderful!! Highly recommended, tasty fresh vegan food that will please everyone even the most demanding carnivores

Do yourself a favour and go here! :) You won't regret it, especially if you get the meal we opted for, which was bacon sandwich and dippy egg, buffalo tofu wrap (which was huge!) with chips. Great coffee and pumpkin latte too! We sat outside, so I can't comment on the inside. But this is great. Do it!

Having tried a mass of different vegan dishes over the past three years, due to one of us going vegan, we have never come across a place with such vast and unique meals. Staff were incredibly friendly and the decor only added to the enjoyable experience. Coffee was amazing and the food had unbelievably generous portions, great value for money. We wanted to come back again the moment we left, and will be returning next time we come to Stratford. 12/10 from us.

We popped in for brunch and enjoyed our visit. The vegan fried eggs were very good. The charcoal bread cheese and onion toastie was nice, not amazing. Cakes looked good but we didn't get to those, next time!

Fantastic food and service. Nice big portions too. Definitely will come again!

Excellent food and coffee So tasty and such a lovely place. Wonderful menu and great service. A real mix of foods and a lot of thought and effort has clearly gone into the dishes. Very happy!

We are not Vegan but really fancied a salad so though well vegan… Honestly the food was exceptional! I really wanted to come a second time but we couldn’t.,, We only have one regret is that we are 2h away from this cafe or it would be one of our regulars! damm

Excellent vegan cafe with amazing cake!

After travelling for 8 hours we (me, my son and his father) were so glad to arrive at the planetarium. Only to stand there on the terrace, being ignored by very busy staff. When I approached the woman I told her we have read a lot about the place, that we would like to sit and enjoy some food and drinks but they were full. (I just read they have an upstairs, I was not aware of that, downstairs there were only seats outside if I recall well). So I asked if we could walk around town a bit and then come back or if she could call if a table was empty but there was no way she could be of service. We had to stand there in between the eating people like doofusses and wait. We refused. I feel bad as I thought vegans all over the world was some sort of community but I did not get that feeling. At all.

I had the cashew and cranberry toasties which was delicious.

AMAZING TASTY, Healthy, Vegan dinning. Outside patio or upstairs.

I'm not vegan but I love this place. Great vibes, AMAZING cake, and lots of dogs. I met a CLUMBER SPANIEL and a GOLDEN.

An absolutely brilliant find. Fantastic, friendly service and quick. The food was ace and truly the best toasted cheese sandwich (with sauerkraut, this time) I've ever had. It all tasted fresh and great quality.

Great food, great location. 3 non-vegans very impressed with the choice and quality. Shawarma crunch and jalapeño burger were 10/10. My only improvement would be that the sausage ciabatta was pretty empty with only 2 small sausages, but still very tasty.

Fantastic Plant-Based cafe with a great selection of food. Very friendly welcome and dog friendly. They gave our dog a few pieces of kibble. Highly recommended

Whether you’re vegan or not, you will love Plantarium. Everything we ordered was so delicious! The seating area is limited and the place can get busy, which is not surprising given the wonderful food and generous portions.

Delicious vegetarian/vegan food, very tasty and friendly staff. Don't be worried, Co-meat eaters, you will love this place as well. Aubergenie is highly recommended!

Excellent vegan food, very generous portions and the staff was very helpful. 100% recommend. I'll definitely come back if I visit Stratford-upon-Avon again.

Lovely lovely lovely! There are so many options for vegans to eat and drink.

Visited Plantarium Cafe last weekend, and it was amazing! The food was delicious 😍 Great vibe and very friendly staff. I wish will were more places like this. Definitely recommend burgers in any variations. Must visit if you are around 😀

Amazing food, different to other vegan and veggie offerings which made it stand out. Dog friendly with outdoor seating weather permitting. We went back a couple of times during our stay in Stratford. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Top vegan eats in Stratford, in fact the only fully plant based in Stratford. We went for breakfast (coffee and cake), lunch (amazing schnitzel) and tea (hot chocolate and more cake). Sit outside in the Minories yard or upstairs in a warm and cosy room.

Love this little place so much. I go every time I’m in Stratford. Sometimes it’s the reason I go to Stratford. In fact, and this is true, I was once off work on a Thursday and thought ‘It’s a nice day, maybe I’ll go to Stratford’ and when I checked and this place wasn’t open on Thursdays, I went somewhere else instead. I can’t remember where.

Outstanding food and service. We valued the varied menu and the different dishes available. We enjoyed the mushroom and sauerkraut tortillas and the snitzel. Portion size was very good and the prices were reasonable for the quality and individuality of each dish. Service was prompt and enthusiastic. We had cake as take away, again the variety was very different to the offerings at other cafes., which we greatly appreciated. We enjoyed our lunch so much we returned the next day for more 11/10 in my book.

Rainy Lunch Even though the sun did not shine, we sat in the courtyard under cover and it was lovely. Coffee was awesome and the food divine. Full of flavour wholesome and very freshly prepared. Could not fault our delicious lunch. Thoroughly recommend this little gem, with all the right ethos. .....

An absolute gem of a find. Fantastic vegan food, lots of choices, quickly served, very reasonable price. We only stayed in Stratford for two days and having eaten here on the first day we came back on the second. If we lived nearer we would be eating here at least weekly. It looks tiny from the outside and you might think they're full inside but there's more seating upstairs. We had the shawarma crunch, trip to Mexico, tofu bbq burrito and I don't give a schnitzel. All delicious. And on both days we had the orange hot chocolate which was divine. Other sites list Plantarium as vegetarian, but all the food is vegan. Maybe it's their offering dairy milk as an alternative to all the plant milks they have that got them the veggie label rather than vegan. It was nice to see the 30p surcharge on the dairy milk instead of the plant milks for a change :) Highly recommended.

Food looked and tasted great. Service was excellent. Nice to find an all vegan restaurant. Will definitely be back.

I'm in love with this place. Every time I pass through Stratford, I always make a mandatory stop to have breakfast here. The quality of the food is incredible and the service unbeatable. It is in a small square 1 minute from the main street in a completely quiet area.

Such a lovely welcoming place, with excellent food and friendly staff. Great for lunch or coffee and a cake. Cake selection is great. Highly recommend.

Sat upstairs with my family. All ordered coffee and teas. The I love yoga tea and Cannabis tea were delish!! Herbivore burgers were so yummy. Will be coming back for another! Whole family were very happy with their choices. YUMMY VEGAN FOOD 😍😍

Outstandingly good vegan food. It’s rare to find a vegan place that gets the balance right between nourishing dishes and burgers, fries etc but they got it totally bang on. Lots of clearly marked gluten free options- all of the toasties can be made gluten free! We got a good variety of food and drinks and everything was a hit, but shout-out in particular to: - the iced blue matcha latte - shawarma crunch (the firm favourite of our group) - the rainbow bread for LGBTQ+ Pride Month! (Which had a real positive impact on our group, especially having experienced homophobia during our 2 days in Stratford-upon-Avon- this nod to pride felt super meaningful and celebratory for us ❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Got there at the cafe for lunch got served quick by friendly staff had a jalapeno toasty and kinder milkshake amazing food would recommend

I’m not Vegan, but the Jalapeño Cheeseburger I just had was possibly the best burger I’ve ever had (meat or vegan).

Amazing, as always - great vegan toasties and the most divine cake variety!

Excellent little place serving a selection of lunches as snacks, and drinks. Vegan menu and very tasty. Friendly staff.

Friendly staff, large portions of delicious cake with a good variety to choose from. The blue matcha was very good, although the peanut butter and caramel hot beverage was too sweet.

Fantastic cafe with an extensive menu. The food is delicious and fresh, there's wine if you want a drink, and the staff are lovely.

I absolutely love plantarium cafe, they make the best oat latte and their food is really nice. Absolutely loved my falafel wrap and the salad my mum had was brilliant too. Always friendly and helpful staff, in a lovely atmosphere.

Always amazing food!!! Wish we didn’t live so far away and it is quite pricey but totally worth it, as they have large portions and the cake portions are insane! We love this place but there are a few downsides, you can’t book, so tables not guaranteed, it’s quite small & not child friendly, no changing facilities or chairs very dog friendly though… they offer treats and blankets… Shame we first started coming here with our dog and got great treatment not the same since going with a baby…but that’s been the same with multiple places…

It was ok, so busy so sat outside freezing as no blankets left but that’s not a big deal. But the mushroom tortilla I had was so so peppery it just tasted of pepper, I gave it 3 rather than lower as my husbands tofu dish was lovely :)

Great food and drinks! Friendly staff too. Prices quite high though.

The cafe is really cute and from the moment we stepped in, the two people working there were so lovely! We ordered tea, two cruffins and a blue matcha. The matcha was the best matcha I’ve ever had! Thank you for the great service and food!

Nice Lunch. Two of us went for lunch and sat upstairs. There are some tables in the quiet courtyard outside, but the day wasn't that warm and there were no free tables in the sun. We had a Shawarma Crunch and a Trip to Mexico, both grilled wraps, and we cut both in half and shared. You get a nice side of salad and some tortilla chips included. I had a beer, my partner had water. Good atmosphere, if a little quiet. The food was nice, and all vegan. £36.

This is our favourite place to eat in Stratford. The coffee is the best, always lovely and hot, try the biscoff latte, mind blowing! The food is always delicious, we’ve been for the breakfast baps, lunch and just coffee/cake and the service is always so friendly and kind. They always bring our dog a little blanket if we are outside and a plate of treats. Make sure you’re hungry as the portions are generous. Can get very busy but with the better weather hopefully coming there is plenty of outside seating, blankets provided if it’s a bit chilly. Lovely staff, cosy atmosphere, banging food!!! A gem that I’d like to stay a little bit hidden please??

One of my absolute favourite cafe's to visit! Been many times over the last few years. The food is always spot on, the cakes are also hard to resist!

We stopped here without looking at the reviews and had a fantastic vegan jalapeño cheeseburger with salad and side tortilla chips. The food was even nicer than the picture and that’s saying something

Our first visit and certainly not our last. Loved this cafe, with its outdoor seating, blankets and cushions were most welcome on a chilly spring day. Coffee was great and the cakes absolutely delicious. I’m not vegan but would definitely be tempted to try more from the menu next time. Thank you for making us and our pup so welcome.

Lovely little cafe we found after a quick Google for vegan food. Amazing coffee and food. Will definitely be coming back to try the cakes.

Wonderful, wholesome food. The charcoal bread was amazing! Highly recommended.

Fantastic fully vegan cafe with a delicious and varied menu, excellent coffee (even the decaf), great portion sizes and superb service. We go here regularly with our whippet; who loves it as much as we do and always tries to go in whenever we walk past. It never disappoints anyone we take there, including non-vegans as the menu is varied enough to suit all tastes 🌱💛😍

Lovely food, lots of gluten free options, and dog friendly too! Will definitely visit again!

Best vegan place in stratford-upon-avon:)

Visited during a weekend away in December. This was actually our second visit as we deliberately sought out this cafe having visited on a previous trip. Excellent cafe with plenty of tempting options. Will visit again on a future trip. Highly recommend.

Had a wonderful first visit to this cafe. I find it hard to find fully vegan restaurants and cafes and I discovered this gem. Food was lovely, great portion sizes, awesome selection of food and cakes! I have the Mexican tofu wrap and my partner had the jalapeño cheese burger. I also had to take 2 slices of cake with me, made in house! I had chocolate hazelnut and a biscoff. Thank you so much we will definitely be visiting again.

Came here for brunch-y stuff ahead of a matinee on a bitterly cold early March weekend. They serve an excellent range of vegan choices (pickle toastie, shawarma crunch) and the coffee (oat flat white)was good, too. Upstairs was perfectly cozy but I intend on coming by in warmer times with cycling friends and the outdoor seating area looks promising for that. Superb!

I’m currently challenging myself to eat Vegan only for at least a full year from 1st January 2024 so I was pleased to find this gem of a vegan cafe. I had a bowl of chickpea and peanut butter stew with flatbreads and my Mum had a “trip to Mexico” spicy tofu crunchy wrap. The food was amazing and the service friendly. Recommended.

Lovely if small daytime café with a limited wine selection. Totally vegan I believe. Food very delicious and a wide range.

My boyfriend and I love it here. Slowly making our way through the menu - the Greek salad and the avocado feta toast are my faves. Great to have a vegan cafe in Stratford!

Such a good place to eat, amazing food and a lot of it as well, great value for money. Couldn't fault it. Highly recommend!

Lovely café! I went for the BBQ tofu burrito which was lovely and the portion size was very generous! Would return!

A very nice cafe. We enjoyed the food as well as the atmosphere there. A cozy brunch for me and my family when we are on the way to another long drive

Absolutely delicious lunch. Really pleasantly surprised. My meal was charcoal bread sandwich of tofu sauerkraut and vg cheese sauce and my friend had something like mushroom tacos?! All delicious and really friendly staff. Lovely place and would definitely recommend

Absolutely love this place. My favourite place to eat

Wonderful to find a place that serves vegan. So much care was put into preparation. The food was top quality and delicious. You can see it was prepared with a lot of care and pride. We ate both days we stayed here and will definitely return when we come back to Stratford upon Avon. Very good value and friendly staff.

Amazing! I’m not even Vegan, first time I’d ever had this type of food and it was phenomenal! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

This has to be the most doggy friendly cafe I have visited. My doggy and others were given lots of fuss, a blanket to sit on and a whole plate of treats. The whole vibe was friendly, welcoming and relaxing. The cake was amazing too!

We returned here today after eating there when ladt in Stratford. It was as good as we remembered ! A really interesting menu, we chose, Tofu Bacon Butty and the Black Charcoal bread , cheese , mustard and Pickle toastie .Both were delicious. Although we didn't try the cakes, but they looked amazing on the counter. Will definitely try next time ! Surroundings were pleasant and relaxed.

Stopped here for lunch on a busy day - service was good, food was swift and delicious (and a nice variety available). Will deffo prioritise if I'm in the neighbourhood again

Lovely cafe, with relaxing atmosphere, the food was absolutely delicious! Loads of options, so tasty and a beautiful place.

Best toasties in Stratford! Full of flavour and fillings. Really fresh and clearly made with love.

Great vegan cafe in the heart of Stratford upon Avon. All food is cooked to order from fresh ingredients.

The most delightful vegetarian burgers I've ever had anywhere, and they make them themselves. A must for vegetarian and vegan gourmets.

AMAZING! The food here was so tasty and really inventive, had a chance to speak to the chef who had put so much thought into the falvours of all the dishes.

The chocolate cake is to die for; the plant-based menu is very varied and every dish we tried was delicious.

Wow !! Jalapeños burger is out of this world , boozy biscotti is highly recommended 🤤

Wonderful cosy cafe, great for lunch and a lazy afternoon. Tasty food, sofas and blankets with lots of tea. Perfect for getting lost in a book.

Amazing place! Fully vegan menu. Clean facilities. Lots of food options 🌸

Oh my gosh! What a find! I'm glad we chose here over the many other cafes in Stratford. I had the vegan smoked salmon and it was to die for- tasted just like the real thing. Being a vegetarian of 16 years, smoked salmon is still the only thing I miss, so this was revolutionary. My partner is GF and Vegan and was well catered for too. If ever we return to Stratford we will come back, thank you!

Looking forward to this. But we came on a Thursday.

Worth finding this establishment - the staff were helpful and courteous. We are not vegan however the choices on the menu were excellent. Service was quick and the servings were huge. The coffees and tea were excellent. A very enjoyable experience - thank you

Not vegan myself but my partner is. Very nice place to visit we come as often as we can as the coffees are spectacular and the cakes are also amazing. The reason I give a 4 star on food is unfortunately I have a hard time with vegan food as high amounts of soya.

The food here is absolutely delicious - can't fault it. The burgers, shawarma, and toasties are all sublime. One thing I was deeply saddened about was their decision to serve dairy milk. In the cafe there is an abundance of messaging surrounding the importance of veganism with respect to the rights of animals, including a notice that the establishment is 'vegan because we care'. This simply seems like lip-service as there is a dairy milk option. This seems to disregard the horrendous cruelty involved in the dairy industry. The issue here is the contradictory messaging - even the website says "Animals suffering in...dairy farming...is a fact and we do not want to be a part of that". Why on earth would you serve dairy milk if you are aware of the immorality of the practice? The door even has a 'post milk generation' sticker to signify society moving past the barbaric practices of the dairy industry and yet one of the first things you'll see when you enter is the proudly displayed cow milk option. I have still given a good review because the food (which is all vegan) is delicious and overall this place is a good advert for vegan food. However, this messaging is a serious problem and undermines the vegan philosophy. I really hope this place can align its ethics and products to become a fully cruelty-free establishment, as it has excellent potential.

We sat outside for our lunch here. All the food was amazing, I especially liked the toast and salmon dish. Would definitely recommend and come here again to try the rest of what's to offer!

Came across the café purely by chance and what a find, lovely vegan food and great service. Our son had a severe nut allergy and they carefully went through what he could and couldn’t eat. I love cheese but have had some concerns about Vegan cheese but the sandwich I had which was a toasted cheese and pesto one was absolutely delicious and was served on charcoal bread which again I have never had before. So to sum up great food, excellent service some experience I have never come across before. Thank you

The Flat whites, the hot chocolates and food were fantastic. It's the best vegan meal we've had eating out. We loved it and are looking forward to trying more on the menu when we return!

Perfect little cafe in a perfect location. All staff are so lovely. Food was a bit salty to our taste, but omg the flavours are so amazing! Good value for money. It's nice to see fresh ingredients and good quality salad etc. Excellent choice of food and cakes. The cakes are divine! We will be back for sure!

Good place to stop while on tour, quality food and drink excellent service

I tend to be lucky to eat in good places though they have exceed my expectations. Thoughtful customer service and tasty, filling me up - for the whole day- portions. Highly recommended.

Splendid falafel salad box. Really enjoyed it. Could really tell that it had been put together by someone who actually cares about what they create. Well recommended.

THEY DO VERY NICE FOODS HERE, ITS ALL VEGAN, ALSO THEY DID LATTE ART ON MY HOT CHOCOLATE :D

Amazing place with delicious food and generous portions. Highly recommend <3 We ordered 5 different dishes and everything was so tasty.

Great place for vegan! Cosy cafe with delicious food!

Great vegan cafe , The breakfasts we ordered were beautiful . I chose the smashed avocado on black bread , and my partner opted for tofu bacon in brioche bun . Both cooked beautifully . Service was great .
