Seeds 2 in South Hams

Often stop for a coffee when visiting Totnes on farmers' market day. Outside only during extended lockdown hysteria. Hospitality has been thrown under a bus. Grab a table and chairs on the pavement in the sunshine and enjoy their range of absolutely delicious and lush savouries or soup of the day. Lovely team.

visited under social distancing and enjoyed it- what good food all freshly prepared. Good to have decent coffee. I noticed the high number of takeaways by market stallholders, always a good sign

Friendly welcome, rustic but clean - good choice of vegetarian dishes (some hot: noodles, dahl, macaroni cheese) and a variety of salads, olives, dolmades - as many as you like. Buffet-style but generous portions served by the staff because of current restrictions. Fixed charge - £10 - welcome to go back for seconds (can't imagine anyone needing thirds!). Cakes and drinks extra. I particularly liked the dahl and the noodles and the focaccia bread. Nothing I didn't like (I didn't try the macaroni cheese because I know I don't like that).A good experience - even for convinced carnivores!

The most tasty food you can imagine. When I explain to friends and family about a salad restaurant I love they laugh because I don’t eat salad. But everything tastes divine. It’s not possible to eat here within making mmm and yum noises. And absolute must visit restaurant. The staff are friendly and helpful and follow all the COVID guidelines to the letter. Did I mention it’s all you can eat? Enjoy

Absolutely delicious Vegetarian/Vegan cafe (I'm neither Vegetarian nor Vegan and still always opt for Seeds 2!) - amazing selection of options and so full of flavour. Their garlic sauce is quite simply INCREDIBLE!Eat In or Take Away options available and they're very comfortable with you going up for extra should you want it, but urge you not to waste food (and rightly so!)

Very friendly and patient staff, as we selected our combination's of saviour and sweet plus takeaway hot drinks.Such a grand selection, we ordered and collected our food, and then the drinks were brought to us from the main sister cafe across the road.Delicious vegan/vegetarian brioche style buns, enormous piece of cinnamon bun and hot chocolate drinks.Great value for money, a real gem of a place and I'm not a vegetarian or Vegan- delicious- 5 stars.

This place has to be worth a visit when going to Totnes. Great food, great vibe, great coffee. Lovely people and such a safe environment in these times. Great work by all there. (You must have the mac and cheese!)

Called in for a cuppa and bite to eat, all fine except when we asked for our food (savoury tarts) to be heated up they said they couldn't as ovens had been turned off!! It was about 2 o'clock. Seemed a bit odd, not the service you would expect in this day & age! Coffee & food all very tasty

Meeting a friend for lunch phoned to be told no bookings taken and not needed for a party of 2 anyway. As it was a nice day and we had a dog we took a table on the street between the cafe and the bakery (under shelter). We got plates piled with a bit of everything on offer and could have gone back for more but were very satisfied with our delicious varied platter. Highly recommended

So many good places to eat in Totnes. This place has top rating, so a lot to live up to. Despite CV restrictions this place is friendly, good value and most important excellent food . It deserves its top rating. Also no plastic plates or cutlery that other places are resorting to for no good reason. thank you for an excellent meal

This is a vegetarian buffet with loads of choice. There are lots of different salad based options, along with hot options such as macaroni cheese, dal and noodles, and accompaniments like bread, samosas etc. You pick whatever you want and they serve it for you. They encourage no waste so ask only for what you think you can definitely eat, but you are allowed to go up for free plate refills! This sounded great to me, but I was so full after one plate I couldn't do it! The food was wholesome and delicious. Would definitely go here regularly if I lived in the area!

Loved this place! Variety of vegetarian mains and salads to choose from (I think it is usually self serve buffet style but during these times the staff serve for you from behind a screen). Food was so good and felt very comfortable eating alone here

Seeds was recommended to me during a recent visit to Totnes so I thought it would be a good place to visit for lunch with my vegetarian friend. The food was excellent quality and there was plenty of it. You can expect to share your table when it gets busier so bear that in mind if you’re looking for a more intimate dining experience.

Really good quality, healthy salads - but don't go because i don't want too many people to know about this place !

All you can eat salad buffet with such flavorful sauces. The price just went up to £8.95 recently. No time limit. There are also hot choices such as roasted potatoes, squash, cream pasta and one oven dish baked with cheese on top which had different ingredients respectively on my 2 visits.Each salad bowl has variety of vegetables and beans with western or oriental dressing. There were 4 different dips(seems to be home made)for bread which was very nice. We ordered small latte after meal and loved their coffee beans so much....extra nutty not overly bitter and burnt. Market car park is right behind the restaurant since there is no free street parking space in front.

We've been here twice for lunch recently and not been disappointed.The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. There is a slight risk of cross contamination as it is a self serve café.There are usually a couple of hot dishes eg potato wedges, roasted vegetables and a Dahl. I've been told the macaroni cheese is delicious, but not GF so I couldn't try.The range is salads are amazing and so tasty. The idea is to try a little bit of the items you like the look of and go up as many times as you like.

Eaten here many times before but today was extra incredible..... one of my favourite places to eat in Totnes!

Really healthy filling food and lots of it... One of us went back for another plate so full the food was in danger cascading. Okay its not gourmet but that's not the idea, and its a fun experience with good food. Basically you help yourself but they will bring over coffee (not bad at all) and are genuinely friendly people.We had everything on our plates, pasta, vegetable and some salad plus whatever looked good - and it all did. Great on a cold day or if you are poor and hungry. Did I mention it was vegetarian? Loads of choice and loads of salad - all great! and very cheap - way under £10 a head. I just remembered, you should be prepared to share a table.

Flavourful, relaxed , reasonably priced ! Love it. Staff were so friendly and even messaged me a slaw recipe to share with my colleagues. Hands down best place to eat in Totnes.

Had a lovely lunch here with a colleague, it my first time there, my colleague had been here many times before and was sure that I would like it. They were right, what a lovely relaxed place to eat I’d have a coffee. The array of food for the help yourself meals made it hard to choose which to have, but as you could fill your own plate I was able to try a little of everything. I believe that there is a hot and cold choice of foods everyday in this day I had the cold foods this day with lots of fresh salady dishes.The coffee was very nice as well. I did return for coffee and cake another time while I was at totnes. Thank you to the staff at seeds2 for your friendly service and tastey food.

I had a mocha coffee and have to say it is probably the nicest one that I have ever had. Although we didn't eat there, the food looked good, and the staff were very helpful and pleasant.

Delicious, fresh food, who knew vegan food could be so varied and tasty. Great atmosphere, great ethos.

A friend and I came for lunch - she'd been before, but I hadn't. I loved the easy-going, help-yourself ethos: share a table, grab a plate, help yourself to as much/little as you want, maybe make a new acquaintance, and pay the fixed price of £7.95 before you leave. Hot drinks, home-made bottled drinks and cookies etc are extra.

As always, great food with a varied selection that is never less than tasty. What marred the experience for me is the fact that it was difficult to get around, it was cramped to the point of being claustrophobic. I made the mistake of having a salad followed by a hot second course. Having to climb over my fellow diners, who had piled their plates high straight away, was not a pleasant experience. It made me feel guilty. Great value but it is so cramped and noisy that you are disinclined to linger.

and do not take more than you can eat. Seeds philosophy. Don't be put off if you are carnivore. I do not suffer from vegetarianism but the 19 options here are absolutely delicious. £7.95 a plate and go back for more if you have the space. Good coffee and cakes. LGBT friendly.

My wife and I love Totnes - and Seeds 2 pretty well captures the feeling of the place. At lunchtime, various vegetarian salads are on display in large antique bowls, together with three or four hot dishes (eg veg bake, macaroni cheese, lentil dhal). Rules of the place - pick up a plate and try any or all of the dishes on offer; you can refill your plate as often as you like, but no sharing and no leftovers allowed. Fair enough (I wonder if this concept would work back in Wolvo?). All for £7.95 each - easily the best value meal we had on our holiday in overpriced Devon. Oh, and the food was delicious. If only I could make veggie food that tasty for myself at home...

A good price for vegetarian buffet. Everything seemed fresh and well prepared. People were friendly and helpful

As a general rule I try to avoid vegetables wherever possible. I had read the reviews on this restaurant and decided that I would give it a try. There were three hot options, fresh bread and at least eight salads to choose from. I loved it so much that I went back for seconds and would have returned the next day if I wasn’t carrying my suitcase as it is up the hill from the bus stop.

Great fresh food with loads of different flavors and textures. Great value at £7.95 and a really relaxed atmosphere. Also a £4.50 small takeaway if your rushing about is super healthy and plenty big enough.

Really good food- lots for veggies and vegans. Lovely staff! Great atmosphere! Loo even great!! Would visit again.

All you can eat of very healthy food for £7.95 obviously prepared and organised with love is such a fantastic concept - despite the 'shabby chic' furniture there's a sense of abundance and generosity. And so far I have not seen one miserable face in there. Most people have a bit of a smile on their face. Quite an extraordinary place...

This place is incredibly good value. A great variety of Fresh healthy salads and always a couple of hot dishes. There are dressings available to make your meal how you want it too.

Great range of buffet-style vegetarian salads for a very reasonable price-can also takeaway. OK coffee and tea. Good and extensive range of giant cookies. Dog friendly outside. Seating inside and outside on the pavement.

Found this little gem quite by chance, but what a find. Great food and friendly staff. Can definitely recommend and will return when in the area again.

Food is lovely, great flavours and healthy too. Will definitely return on our next holiday to Devon. Thank you

Went for lunch with 5 friends on a very wet Friday and were made to feel very welcome. You choose either a large or small plate (£7.95 or £4.95), and help yourself to the gorgeous array of dishes. Roasted veg, dahl, salads, dips, couscous, pasta, olives, bread, probably forgotten something, and you are invited to go back for more, but to avoid waste. Water is provided, but you pay extra for other drinks. A friendly atmosphere and very obviously a popular choice for lunch. Thoroughly recommended.

This was our second visit on yet another gloriously sunny Saturday Market day. The food is just fantastic and the welcome by the very engaging team is faultless. We just love the atmosphere and the opportunity to chat with other customers. This time we met a lovely little fellow, 5 months old, with his mum and dad, and a lovely lady from Newton Abbot. I'd left my sweat shirt following breakfast and was pleased to get it back at lunchtime. Thank you for spotting it and keeping it for me. We will be back.

A cafe that definitely lives up to its Tripadvisor reviews. Salads were really tasty and inventive and at £7.95 fantastic value and some hot food available on the buffet too. A vegetarian and vegan buffet feast that you can go up again if you've not had enough the first time round. Notices on just putting on your plate what you can eat rather than wasting any food. Lovely homemade ginger beer too. An honour system operates and you just say what you have had at the the till when leaving. Would definitely return when next in the area.

Tried to go here for evening meal but all booked up. Went for lunch; very good value help yourself to salad and some hot potatoes and roasted veg. Price includes as many refills as you want whilst encouraging you not to take more than you can eat. Salads served in lovely big bowls. £7.95 per person

Good tasty veggie offering. Left feeling very satisfied and would pop back if I’m ever in the area. Cute find

Lovely salad lunch with violets and marigold petals on top! Finished off with coffee and Poppyseed Lemon Drizzle cake. Delicious

Lovely salads and foods which you can help yourself to, all in a funky setting. Atmospheric and a really great vibe!

Visited with my other half and we will definitely be visiting again! Delicious, all you can eat, lots of options, friendly staff, what more could you want?

Really lovely food! Great idea with minimum wastage. Highly recommend, plenty lovely healthy options good for vegans too! A must when in Totnes!!

First visit to this establishment. Sat outside with egg mayo filled pitta and coffee. Very good, pitta sandwich with ample fillings, though not true pitta-this wasn't a problem. Very good coffee and obviously dog friendly outside on the street

Great find and we're still wondering why we've missed it til now ... £7.95 per plate and absolutely delicious serve yourself food - salads and veggies galore (seconds allowed but no wasters or sharers) coffee good too. Particularly liked the stuffed vines and Dahl - fab idea and great atmosphere

Oh I love this place, the staff are friendly, the guy owner makes an absolutely amazing latte, the salads are all homemade and absolutely tasty, try with the dressing, you can get a huge plate it’s a help yourself sort of style, and there’s always homemade bread to go with, they also have homemade juice, with a visit if your ever in Totnes or local enough to go.

What a wonderful totally authentic find with wonderful people relaxed atmosphere and absolutely brilliant food using a simple formula which we loved. So there a healthy buffet style eat or you desire without waste mindset here which is absolutely correct. We simply loved the place. Recommend.

I love this place. The coffee is great (especially the flat white!) and they even make their own lemonade. Lucy runs a slick show here and there is a relaxed and humorous atmosphere with background (!) music. This is primarily a salad/coffee bar with everything made on site or across the road in their bakery/shop. The flat bread is a revelation and included in the "all-in" price of £7.95 for as much as you can eat from the salad buffet with pasta and fried potatoes (don't dare leave anything on your plate though!). Darren is the baker and the latest innovation is vegetarian sushi served to take-away from the bakery on trays for as little as £4.50. They also have a marvelous array of cakes, fridge cakes, filled baps, pizza, homity pie, freshly-baked bread plus many more items changing on a daily basis. Consistently good in all departments and a great place to unwind. Well done, Team!

Lucky to be in Totnes on a Friday, the only evening it's open. We hadn't booked but were given a table, albeit for a limited time which suited us fine. It's a flat £10 help yourself buffet. Excellent choice of hot and cold foods with the opportunity to return for more if wanted. My pics show a selection of dishes. Top veggie venue. Wise to book for a Friday night. Tempted to return for lunch tomorrow.

We love going to Seeds, both in the day and when they open on a Friday evening. The food is wonderfully prepared, and the staff are all welcoming and charming. The owner is a lovely woman, and ensures that all runs smoothly. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, and you sit at any table which has available seats, so you may even get to make a new friend. In fact, we're going there again tomorrow as we have a friend visiting and we know that we'll have another great time. (Remember that there is no alcohol license, although you can bring your own - check the corkage charge).

Can’t wait to go back here, lovely fresh food with great service, try the homemade ginger beer worth going just for that!

Me and my boyfriend visited and loved the idea of helping yourself and being able to go back for more! There was so much choice in terms of the salad plate; about 8 or so cold salads (potato’s, chickpeas, leafy salads, sesame and peas) soft hunks of fresh bread, olives, and some hot foods aswell (mac n cheese, toasted veg and roasted potato wedges)! Everything was super tasty and you could just pile up your plate and return for more of the tasty foods! Would definitely recommend and hopefully will be able to return to Totness to come here again!!! Amazing!

Lovely variety of healthy foods, lots of vegan and raw though there is some warm food. I come for the buffet and get take-away salads whenever I can. Can be packed and noisy and loo is tiny but.. absolutely worth it for the food.

Lovely to be back in Totnes for a holiday again! Visited this restaurant twice over the first week in November. Lucy & the team are always welcoming & friendly & the food is great for my wife's gluten & dairy free diet. The food which consists of a variety of salads & hot dishes with accompaniments such as olives & stuffed vine leaves, is always lovely, great value with a wonderful bustling atmosphere. It is very popular & gets very busy but just adds to the place. We do highly recommend & look forward to our visit on our return to Totnes. Don't change guys!

THe food is without doubt excellent. Can get quite crowded. Staff generally friendly. Woman owner can be pretty patronising, but I think she can be a bit stressed after working so hard cooking the excellent food. It's stopped me going back though.

Two cafés opposite each other. Absolutely beautiful salads, quiches et cetera. Soup of the day. Vegetarian. Help yourself to buffet style, go back for more all for £7.50! Busy place. Great coffee. Friendly team.

I selected a number of vegan items for my plate and when i had finished dutifully put my knife and fork together with the serviette on the plate, all neat and tidy. The server, who looked to be in her early 40s, (blonde if I remember correctly), asked me if I had finished and I said yes thank you. She returned a moment later and drew my attention to the policy of clearing the plate to avoid waste - I genuinely couldn't fit anymore in and thought I had the right amount selected when I got dished up - what was I supposed to do, vomit to make room? I also struggled with the hard roasted veg that weren't cooked properly and the unappetising veggie dhal, which was like runny goo. I drew her attention the the unappealing parts of the meal and said I simply couldn't finish it. She then had the audacity to say I didn't finish everything last time I came in either, like she was tracking me! It had been a good month or so prior. She tried to stare me out too but I just smiled and said "really - oh well". She talked down to me like she was my mother! Will not be revisiting

Lovely veggie and vegan food and lots of different dishes and all very tasty. Some hot dishes with plenty of salads. Never disappointed when I have food here. Great evening thanks

Was delighted to find that Seeds 2 is now open on one evening a week, Friday, as well as lunchtimes. I was greeted by a wide choice of different and interesting salads and dishes, new and unexpected. The flat rate for eating as much as you want works well. Because you can revisit as many times as you wish, you don't start off my overfilling your plate - less waste / more taste! I ate so well, I volunteered to pay more than the flat rate.

Came in for a coffee and hot chocolate on my partners birthday. We asked for a hot chocolate then my partner asked if he could have it with oat milk. The gentleman behind the counter then said “oh really that’s a shame” and then continued to mentione he has one ready made with cows milk and it would make his life easier. I work in a cafe myself I know you should not respond to customers in this way. Although the drinks were lovely, we won’t be returning.

Awesome place. Massive plate of veg for £7.50. Loads of salads to choose from and they were all good. Left feeling much healthier!

We visit Totnes maybe every other year but this was our first visit to the Seeds2. What a great format.just help yourselves to a plate of food,and pay when you are finished. All they ask is that you only take what you can eat.there is a great choice of veggy food, tasty bread, lovely salad and wonderful staff to assist you. We will return next time we are in Totnes.

What a brilliant place. Pay £7.50 for a serve yourself buffet of healthy salads, Dahl, pasta, sourdough, olives - and all of it beautifully seasoned. Great ambience, loved it.

Stopped here for lunch while visiting friends. Other reviews have already pointed out the friendly staff and casual dining - self-service, table sharing, honesty paying - plus the value for money - all you can eat for £7.50. The salads themselves, I thought, were a little samey. Each contained different ingredients but I felt the herbs and particularly the spices could have made them taste different. Caraway or fennel seed, coriander, basil... Different textures would also have been nice too- it was all a bit indistinguishable. Having said that the salads were all fresh and colourful, the bread delicious and the mac cheese tangy. I enjoyed it and would recommend but a little more variety in seasoning and textures would earn them a fifth star.

My friend brings me here for a lunchtime treat. Fantastic assortment of vegetarian dishes which all taste delicious. The Mac and cheese is scrummy. Grab a plate, load it up, pay at the end. Enjoy.

So I’m not vegan, I’m not even vegetarian but Seeds is a vegan restaurant and I loved it! The food is served buffet style, very casual just grab a plate and help yourself. It cost £7.50 and you pay on your way out. It’s super delicious, really satisfying and even if you aren’t vegan you should try it.

Food was healthy, varied and delicious! Coffee’s has great vegan alternatives and cakes are fantastic! Very friendly staff as well.

Buffet style vegetarian food, mainly salads and cold dishes but there was hot macaroni cheese, potato wedges and roasted roots (that were to die for). Communal tables add to the ambience. I would have liked a hot quiche option, or a veggie chili etc, but this is a comment only and I'm happy to give it 5 stars.

I'm not into vegetarian food but this place is special. It is so what Totnes is all about and makes me feel good just to go in the door. I've been several times now and taken a variety of friends who all love and embrace the experience. The food is so natural and fresh. Don't go if you want luxury, E numbers or meat.

Very friendly and good menu with lots of choice especially if you have food intolerances. Great cakes!

Really lovely place and very social as you share tables. The food is always delicious and great value for money.

Six hours later and I am still full! Great selection of salads, stuffed vine leaves, olives, very tasty dahl and roast veggies. Excellent value for money. Friendly and efficient staff. Good coffee and looked like ace cakes and cold drinks. Please open a branch in Exeter.

if you want to give your palette a treat! not only a fair price, great service but most importantly of all, healthy, nourishing food.

This was a great find, and I dont know why there are not more of these restaurants around!

A fabulous variety! So much fun!! Its lovely how the cafe puts so much trust into its customers, being able to serve your own food with all you can eat and being honest when paying for your food at the end. A lovely selection of drinks and they offer a great chocolate milkshake thats not to sweet! Everyone in the cafe is so friendly, I love how they ask people to share tables, this means you can meet some really interesting people and make some new friends. The food is delicious, with so many healthy salads and some great hot vegetables as well. All the food is veggie which is excellent as that is what we are. A real little gem, would recommend if your going to eat somewhere in Totnes. Their bakery across the road serves a great selection of cakes, and the brownie we had was so light and yummy!!!!!

I have visited Seeds 2 on numerous occasions and I can say with all confidence that if you like vegetarian and vegan food this is the place for you.

This is such an excellent place to visit......the staff are pleasant, the atmosphere is serene, the food is delicious and one of the best made coffee's in Totnes. A must visit where you even pay for everthing on the way out. 5 out of 5

I have eaten here many times. With the ‘Mrs’ or on my own, and always if I have got the time during my lunch break.

I stumbled upon this cafe/restaurant at lunchtime and saw customers coming outside with beautiful looking plates of food. I wasn’t disappointed. The salads were absolutely deliciously and constantly refreshed. The selection was wonderful. I went back for seconds but could have gone back as many times as I would have liked. Excellent value. Highly recommended if you want something healthy for lunch.

Seeds 2 is a fantastic place, the staff are all really friendly, and there is a lovely atmosphere inside. Whether you are just grabbing a takeaway box to eat on the run, or sitting and eating in, there are so many different things to choose from. The choices also seem to change seasonally, so the menu never gets boring. Love it!

I have a friend who visits us here in South Devon twice a year. I just asked him what he wanted to do this weekend. He said 'go to that place in Totnes'. Seeds, you're legendary. My veggie daughter put me on to it, and I've taken anyone I know there ever since. So the date I've put is the last time I took Jim. But we're back this weekend!

This is our first visit on a Friday evening. We were not disappointed - the food was amazing. The staff super friendly and the price reasonable. Added bonus tonight was live music. Will definitely be making this a regular venue.

Just popped in after visiting the town. My brother had a lovely cake and me & sister in law shared a salad. Wow. The amazing tastes were stunning. Coffee was amazing & served in lovely quirky mugs. Definitely visit here again. We don’t have anything like this at home! Yum.

Do yourself a favour and eat lunch here!!! Help yourself to a fantastic selection of salads and hot foods. If your still hungry you can go back for more for free!! Really really tasty food I highly recommend it!!!

My fella and I wanted to try this place on our visit to Devon last year but it was incredibly busy, so we were determined to dine here this time. We came in on my birthday for lunch during a snowy Saturday afternoon and managed to find a seat. Hooray!

What a unique little gem. Wonderfully tasty, healthy food. Fast food in the best way. I want to come here everyday for lunch. Obviously hugely successful as difficult to get a seat and sometimes can’t get in. 😢Please open a place in Plymouth!!

This is my favourite place to eat in Totnes. The food is superb, very tasty, I really really love it! Friendly and nice staff and relaxed atmosphere! I would recommend it!

Couldn’t of asked for anything more, great food, great atmosphere, great price. Super friendly staff which in turn puts all the customers in a great mood. I really enjoyed the honesty associated with paying, brings out the best in people. Exactly what totnes dining is all about!

The only negative thing I can say about this place is that there isn’t one in Plymouth. The food is...

I visited this place for the first time and been to totnes many times and what a quirky place it is to eat and a great concept grab a plate fill it up find a seat and eat and chat to other people in the place and if u want more can go up for more

A really great little vegetarian restaurant, quirky and very 'Totnes'. We have eaten here several times and love the food. The variety of salads, side dishes and hot food is amazing and very good value. Customers help themselves from the array of dishes on offer and the staff are friendly and helpful. This restaurant is so popular that it's hard to find a table at peak times, but keep trying, it's worth the effort!

Bought sandwich from Bakery across the road ( part of Seeds 2) it was stale and virtually inedible- yuk

A little bit let down by the fact it's rather a scrum to get to the salads as they're all near the front of the cafe on the counter. Might be more helpful if seating/food serving were rearranged a bit? Otherwise a great place. I think I may have eaten about 52 of my 'five a day' - all delicious, healthy and meat-free. I was too full for a return trip. Hubby liked the food but was less-than-enthused about the jostling to queue. Would certainly revisit on another trip to Totnes.
