Ribizli in South Oxfordshire

Lovely visit with a friend to sit out and have coffee during Bunkfest. Unbelievable rudeness from another customer towards the staff who were gracious and tolerant where to eject him would have been entirely appropriate and reasonable. Instead they returned his money as an act of goodwill. Everyone who witnessed this was appalled by how awful he was. Such a lovely cafe!

Absolutely delicious peking salad bowl for lunch. The food is so good and good for you! Lovely relaxing environment to sit and enjoy the food, the hot chocolate was pretty good too !

This is Wallingfords best kept secret. Incredible, tasty (and as a special bonus) healthy food that makes you feel like you have given your body a real vitamin boost. Also arguably the best coffee in Wallingford and there’s tough competition out there!

Excellent food - very generous salad bowls and delicious creamy coconut lentil curry. Great value vegetarian food that is different to anything else in Wallingford. And do try the ginger shot in a glass of apple juice.

Do not miss this gem. We had an amazing breakfast of not just avacado on sourdough but an amazing tasty soft pineapple salsa, green leaves, seeds and sauerkraut. Need to go back to try the porridge ❤️ also had a takeaway noodle lunch bowl and banana bread. The freshness and flavours is even above the high standards of vegetarian places we have in Herts.

The food here is amazing and very unique and original, the coffee and anzak cookies are brilliant. This is probably one of the best coffees in Wallingford and its definitely worth visiting.

Opened for take away during lockdown, this little gem of café not only serve wonderful dairy free hot drinks, my cappuccino was very nice and creamy, scrumptious vegan cakes, but the hot dishes they are serving are to die for!I stopped for a coffee and went home with a hot Tagine with spicy chick peas and sweet potatoes, served with quinoa, toasted almonds and fresh herbs, with a creamy dairy free yogurt.It was so tasty and heart warming, I had to leave a review with the compostable box still on my lap!

Definitely the tastiest lunch in Wallingford. I've had 5 different dishes and they've all been so good and three different smoothies which have been great too. They really know about food and flavours. Hard to believe it's all good for you too! Love it!

The bullet milkshake is amazing! the Coffee wonderful and the food is brilliant. We have been going here for some years now and the quality of food both savoury and sweet is out of this world.

Such fresh yummy vegan food! It’s a fairly limited menu, but so delicious! I had a salad bowl with red rice, the best roasted squishy sweet potato, mango, hummus and cabbage! The sweet treats are all refined sugar and gluten free. Very friendly too. Recommend! They do good breakfasts and all their bread is great!

Fantastic tasty vegetarian/vegan food, lovely staff/owners, spotlessly clean, and healthy too.It's a small place, so the options of food available are quite limited, but that doesn't matter. I've never eaten anything here I didn't like.The takeaway meals are every bit as good as the eat in options we've had before. What's not to love?

Delicious takeaway coffee (double shot cappuccino) and ice cream (had raspberry) with safe and friendly service!

No ordinary sandwiches available only half a sandwich? Dogs were allowed in but at the very front. Not much table room available. Having perused menu thought it was far too expensive for what it was.

Met friends here last weekend for coffee and breakfast and was very impressed. Really great cakes too but I was particularly impressed with the coffee. Recommended 100% and we’ll certainly be back.

This is a very accomplished cafe with a short but brilliantly executed menu . I recommend the open sandwich or Warm Inca bowl . The juice and smoothies are great . It really doesn’t matter if you are not vegan , the food will hit the mark . Well done

We had a private party for my 60th birthday at Ribizli, with their African tasting menu. It was a brilliant evening, the service was very friendly and the food was amazing. I have been inundated since with appreciative messages from my guests. Thank you so much to Timea and her team. It was a really special evening.

Had been meaning to visit for a while and finally made it. This is a really charming and friendly cafe with delicious homemade food (it was very difficult to choose from all the great options!) We had Morrocan tagine, which was beautifully spiced, and yummy chocolate and pear cake with very good coffee. It was fantastic, great service and we will certainly be back :).

This place is amazing! Its so refreshing to find a place with great vegan options! They are also very allergen aware which is brilliant. Everything Ihave had here has been delicious too! The staff are always lovely and so friendly. This will definitely become a regular spot for me.

This place is a gem. I am vegetarian but had not tried some of their food combinations before. Lovely food, dog friendly and a great place to meet up with friends.

On recommendation from a fellow vegetarian, we called in for a lunch break. We were not to be disappointed. We couldn't make our minds up about soup or salad, so we had both.Wonderful food, great portion sizes. Lovely staff, they should be really proud of their business.We will certainly be going back next time we visit Wallingford.......next time I will have cake aswell

My wife and I called in here for lunch. The food and cakes were fleshly prepared, delicious and original. Coffee was excellent. Good space and friendly service. Finding somewhere as good as this is very rare. This establishment has restored my faith in eating out in the UK.

We were attracted to this place as it had lots of plants in the window, and looked nice, and realised once inside that everything was dairy free, vegan, etc. Which was great. We had a mocha, hot chocolate and a cookie and everything was delicious and very reasonably priced. The waitress was absolutely delightful and very smily. It seems small from the outside, but the place also has an upstairs area.

Friendly staff, high quality coffee and a selection of vegan food and cakes... which makes it easy when visiting with friends who have finiky diets. They have also recently opened an in store baker, the quality of the breads I've tasted so far are on par with Bertinet in Bath.

We love Ribizli for coffee and lunch. Today we had butternut squash, ginger and carrot soup. He had a half salad which was also lovely.

I love it - where should I start?

I live locally to this wonderful cafe and they serve the BEST coffee in Wallingford - no contest. It is an extremely clean and comfortable place to relax and meet friends. The staff are always very sweet and attentive. It is always such a treat to pop in here.

What a wonderful find! Gluten free and dairy free and such interesting choice of food. Delicious home made red lentil and carrot soup with seedy/chia filled gluten free bread that was very moreish. So full that chose to take away huge gluten free brownie (feeds 3 I reckon) with gorgeous raw chocolate flavour (none of that nasty over sweet goo). Such charming staff and so helpful.

I visited here recently for lunch and then just coffee and was not disappointed. It has to be visited to appreciate the wonderful food on offer. I had a small salad plate for lunch which was ample and totally delicious, accompanied by wonderful, seedy, gf bread. On another occasion I had coffee and banana bread lightly toasted with jam. A real treat and highly reasonable. Don’t let the fact it is a vegan cafe put you off. You won’t be disappointed if you give it a try. The added bonus is that you can take dogs too. Highly recommend! Thank you and I will definitely be back soon.

This is an excellent gem in Wallingford with very friendly staff and excellent vegan food including salads and cakes. There is a dog friendly room and the fresh design within a fascinating Tudor building adds to this very unique and cosy cafe. The cookies and brownies are fantastic and the range of coffees and teas allows plenty of options.

I popped in to Riblizi for coffee with a friend and we thought we'd go upstairs at it was (understandably, given the lovely food) busy upstairs. We turned right at the top and ended up in a room carpeted with (artificial) grass. It was lovely! There was even a deck chair. Next time it is a bit grey outside and I want to dream of summer, I can go there and feel very bright and cheery. The coffee and mint tea were very good too, and the cookie was brilliant. A little gem

Great service, people, coffee and cake. Lots of interesting food and drink options, especially for vegans.

We visited here on Thursday morning for coffee and cake. Very small in old building right in centre of Wallingford with minimalistic decor of white walls and furniture which make it light and airy. Mixture of customers young with babies in pushchairs and mature ladies meeting up as well as couples. Sign to say dogs welcome upstairs. Found it on TripAdvisor otherwise would probably have not gone in and what a mistake that would have been. Good coffee blend with depth and not bitter. I had the vegan dried fruit and nut slice and my husband a huge chocolate brownie. Both excellent especially the vegan option with spices and chrystallised ginger.

I love Ribizli’s and am a regular customer. The staff are always friendly, and the cakes are always delicious. I particularly recommend the hot chocolate (rich and filling).

I can here on a whim and glad I did. Definitely offers something unique from the other generic coffee shops- really good selection of cakes with no refined sugar etc and coffee was excellent. Calm, peaceful oasis. Will definitely be back.

We recently visited here for a coffee and cake, and it didn’t disappoint. The cakes we tried were unlike anything I’ve had before. My husband doesn’t usually enjoy cake, but he actually made us go back the next day so that he could have more! I would thoroughly recommend their chocolate, almond and cacao nibs cupcake - so delicious!

Delicious, healthy food, great service, excellent value... what’s not to like? This small cafe offers another good reason to visit Wallingford, a small town in South Oxfordshire with a real sense of community about it.

The lady running this cafe is from Bulgaria. She is obviously passionate about what she does and deserves to succeed We spent a comfortable afternoon with our dog enjoying the fare. We didn't know it was a vegan cafe until we arrived, having been directed there by Tourist Information who we simply asked for somewhere 'dog friendly'. I can't remember tasting a better brownie and I've tried a few! I had decaff coffee with soy milk and the coffee had superb flavour. It blended with the soy milk perfectly and I ordered another after. Main course was a vegan salad, lifted by good dressing, and served with a bread that was mostly whole grains and seeds. I do not know what was used instead of butter but it was surprisingly good. I would definitely eat here again and recommend it highly. Prices are also very reasonable for what is provided. Dog-shaped canine treats are provided and our collie enjoyed a few of these. It should also be mentioned that the cafe aims to cater for special diets so if you need to avoid certain ingredients I am sure Ribizli could help you.

Friendly, atmosphere, amazing home cooked food, great taste and value for money. Although we do not have a dog there is a seperate room upstairs which welcomes dogs - something I have not come across before. Perhaps they should have another room for small children (only joking!).

I live near Wallingford but had missed out on visiting here until today. It has an amazing dog friendly room upstairs, where I was able to take my 2 rescue Chihuahuas. I was made to feel very welcome indeed. They do lovely sounding lunches but I opted for a vanilla latte and struggled to choose from the wonderful selection of cakes on offer. I chose a mango & vanilla cupcake- which was gorgeously moist and soft; with a subtle flavour. The food on offer here is veggie, gluten free and dairy free. Wonderful to find vegan food here, this may be my first visit but it certainly won’t be my last!!

I am not vegetarian or vegan however I love their desserts and coffee (my favorites are the chocolate brownie and the chocolate and almond cupcake). Staff is very friendly, the place is clean and lovely. They also allow dogs on the 2nd floor which makes the whole experience even better. They offer soups and salads which are also very good and nutritious. Amazing to have a place like this in Wallingford.

So glad we gave into our curiosity and opened the door. One of the best lunches had in a while. We both had the minestrone soup. Could taste the flavours, not just the salt. Thank you so very much. The coffees were lush :) Creamy, full flavoured. Apparently made with soy milk. Yes its 'healthy' but more importantly its darned good food, friendly helpful service and spotless.

coffee and cakes here recently. Why have I only just found this place? beautiful and spotlessly clean place. Delicious homemade cakes and lots of other things on the menu. extremely friendly staff Will definitely be back

Stopped off for quick lunch- this is a gorgeous little place in a quaint old building. Vegan/ gluten and dairy free meals DOESNT mean it's not delicious for everyone. Had split pea & spinach soup with unusual seeded breads followed by a salad plate to share and banana cake & excellent cappucinos. Fab meal!

Top quality ingredients, all gluten free. People must use this so they stay open, I am hoping they will start offering cooked breakfast soon. We will be regulars, as a celiac recently moved nearby, this is a dream come true. Very polite, friendly staff, highly recommended.

A beautiful little cafe in Wallingford, serving an entirely vegetarian/vegan menu of homemade soups, salads & cakes. Although on the small side, it’s lovely & clean inside, with simple, bright decor & even a dog-friendly seating area upstairs. They normally have at least two soups & two salads on offer, all of which are served with a slice of their delicious toasted seed bread. When we visited at the weekend, they had three soups available – lentil, leek & potato, & bean goulash – which all smelled amazing. We ordered a large bowl of leek & potato soup, which was delicious, flavorsome & comforting, as well as two salads (£5 for a small plate or £7.50 for a large plate), which were piled high with leaves, roasted vegetables & chickpeas in a tomato pesto-style dressing. We arrived just before midday &, although their menu states they serve lunch from noon, the food wasn’t actually ready to be brought out to the counter until about 12.20pm. However, this wasn’t a major problem as we weren’t in a particular rush & we were served quickly once the food was ready & appreciated the fact that everything was being freshly made that day. My only slight disappointment was that there weren’t very many cakes on offer (especially as the cupcakes contain eggs & so are not suitable for a vegan diet), but again, this may have just been because we visited promptly at lunchtime. Overall a lovely cafe, serving tasty, nutritious, healthy, filling food – I’ll definitely be back for more!

Riblizi is a welcome addition to the plethora of cafes in town already. It offers something the rest don't - a fully vegan menu, down to the hot drinks. I'm not a vegan (or even a veggie) but come in here for something a bit different. Last week I enjoyed a delicious lunch - a mixed salad bowl, including roasted squash, courgette, and onion, pesto leaves salad and chickpeas. The coffee is really good too - I had the soy milk cappuccino which was really creamy. The setting is unusual and beautiful - an ancient building, but freshened up inside with clean-looking white fittings and salad green accents. Upstairs there are two charming rooms, one of which is fitted out to accommodate your dog while you enjoy your coffee!

Fabulous gluten free and allergy free cafe. Excellent delicious food, created lovingly and with integrity and knowledge. A must for anyone including those who eat gluten.

Coffee is good, and the food looks fabulous. Has a really nice feel to it - and if you have a dog, you’ll struggle to find better facilities.

My husband and I visited Ribizli today on a chilly but sunny morning and the greeting we received was very warm. The cafe has a clean and modern feel with artwork on the walls and a good view onto the street if you are lucky enough to bag the window table which we did! The coffee was excellent and the tea served in a proper pot which is a bonus. The chocolate brownie was one of the best I have tasted and we will certainly be back to try the soup and salad. We are lucky to have such a great independent cafe in Wallingford!

I only came in for a takeaway coffee and a cupcake today, but finding this place made me so happy. I'm a massive foodie and long time plant-based eater (who craves cake a lot but can't find ones with no egg/milk). Was not expecting a place like this to turn up in Wallingford at all and it made my day :)

Ribizli was a really nice find yesterday. I had a really fresh and tasty salad, my other half had soup(urb!). Dogs are welcome too which I'm sure will attract lots of walkers. We will definitely return and test out the cakes, they looked good.

Agreed to have my brothers dog for 3 weeks whilst him and the family were in Australia meant if I did go out with the dog for a riverside walk we (dog and I) were limited to where we could go for refreshment.

We couldn't believe our luck stumbling across Ribizli. It was a Sunday so there wasn't much open in Wallingford which worked in our favour as we would have stopped somewhere else to eat before discovering Ribizli.

First visit to this friendly, modern and very clean cafe. We only stopped for coffee, but the menu board read very well. Will definitely visit again for lunch.

This is for sure the best place locally to get vegan and gluten free cakes. The interior and the atmosphere is very peaceful and the owner was very friendly. Definitely recommended!

My wife and I, who are not veggies, called into Ribizli for lunch recently. I have to say that I am usually not a fan of salads, but we both thoroughly enjoyed the delicious salad which was also great value. The warm bread served with it was also superb. We will certainly be back when next in Wallingford.

My wife and I started going to Ribizli the day it opened. The location is in the town centre, easy to walk to, or get to from the Waitrose car park. The building is a charming cottage like space with ancient exposed wood beam walls and ceilings. There are three dining areas, one for casual relaxation and dining, one for families, and one room which is dog friendly and ready for furry friends. As if the location wasn't enough, the coffee and food is amazing. The owners are fantastic people who believe strongly in the preservation of the environment and the good stewardship of animals. As a result they have created a menu which is milk and gluten free, and is absolutely delicious. The coffee is excellent and they even make specialty coffee drinks like a Raspberry Mocha. Everything there is amazing and the owners are great people with vision and taste.

this is one of the best cafes we have ever eaten in. plus, the lady who runs it was proper charming. and so welcoming. plus, the food was beyond healthy. and tasty too. and she gave us a no-sugar cake for free. seriously recommended!!!!

A small salad bar is available with no refined sugar or gluten.

I've visited several times during shopping trips and it's a lovely place to take a break. The owner really is very talented - her gluten free baking is a total delight and the coffee is also excellent. I've yet to try the soup but I'll be back soon. Riblizi is a very welcome addition to Wallingford and I wish them every success.

Highly recommend seeking this place out. Great attention to detail and gorgeous tasting and healthy too.

The homemade soup on a Saturday lunchtime, served with bread, was delicious, the cakes were superb and show that eating dairy free & gluten free doesn't have to be a penance for anyone new to dietary requirements. The couple running this lovely cafe are very friendly, enthusiastic and pay attention to detail. I wish them great success. If I lived in Wallingford I would be there all the time.

Lovely coffee and nice small selection of vegan cakes. Very relaxed atmosphere and lovely couple who run this cafe.

Only recently opened in Wallingford. Everything is gluten and dairy free - was a bit sceptical BUT the hot chocolate is fantastic and the cookies (chocolate chip and Anzac) are incredible. Perfect for lunch with someone with allergies - real peace of mind.

We've been twice now and really think it's the best coffee in town. Vegetarian and gluten free. With most dietary requirement catered for. Soup is healthy and delicious with a good cake selection. We will definitely be back.

This new café proves that specialist food need not be tasteless & boring. From cupcakes with huge swirls of crème pat, to continental pastries and chunky home-made soups, everything served is gluten & dairy free. The cakes & soups are home-made & for those with other allergies, the cook can tell you every ingredient. The food is delicious and wholesome & NOT at specialist prices.

Very recently opened in Wallingford's oldest street house, this is a great place for coffee and light lunches especially for vegetarian or vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free diets. Services are developing, but already the coffee is delicious, and so are their cakes. Opening hours too are developing, so check their website, but definitely a cafe to check out.
