The Veg Box Cafe in Canterbury

Gorgeous menu - everything was delicious, vegan and gluten free! A huge treat and bonus for our day trip!! 100% be back!

Lovely service and amazing food

This place is a Vegan’s Eden, it was so cozy and delicious, great service and a friendly staff!

Lovely wholesome restaurant with a chilled, laid back, healthy vibe - they had lots of options to choose from. We went for soup and hot pot and was great. Very winters and warm dishes🫶

Lovely hot breakfast, the home made baked beans are the star of the show 💕

Warm atmosphere, friendly staff, great healthy food

Very very good tasty food. My sister is a converted carnivore. Delightful!

This used to be my haven in the city but I'll never go there again, after repeated rude service from different members of staff on different visits. There was a noticeable change around the time they opened an additional cafe in London. The food is tasty, locally sourced and healthy, so I'll be sad to miss it. But I just don't need the stress. Management should have a look at how staff are speaking to customers and consider reviewing the strange way orders are now taken and then served.

Used to be great, service is now terrible and food is over priced.

Delicious, healthy vegan food, locally grown. Superb vegan cakes! Great coffee. Helpful and friendly staff. Seating outside in the sun or plenty indoors. Good ambience.

We love the veg box. Delicious healthy food.

Very tasty and fresh food. I love the rich flavour and spices. Definitely makes me want to go again for a dine in next time. Delicious!

Wonderful food and really lovely people serving us

Excellent selection of food, very tasty and good quality. We received our meals quickly and the service was good and efficient. All round a positive experience, would recommend and visit again!

The cauliflower fritter was delicious the whole ensemble was just scrumptious. The service was friendly and efficient and the cost was really reasonable

Very tasty food, a great place to eat in Canterbury.

Lovely location nice fresh yummy vegan food 😋

Came here for lunch and ordered a “sharing platter” for 2. However, when the food came we were both given a huge sharing platter of delicious food! Great atmosphere and vibe to the place.

Amazing healthy food, lovely staff, love this place!

Great 100% plant based café with brunch, lunch, coffee and lots of cakes. Just a stones throw from the cathedral. Chilled atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Delicious and nutritious food. One of my favourite places to eat in Canterbury. I highly recommend their fritters & salad !!

Amazing vegan food, from small treats to meals. Love coming here!

my fave place for lunch, i absolutely love their soups of the day❤️

Amazing place with delicious food and friendly staff. I had a feast, and being vegan and gluten free it's not easy to eat out. I'll be back!

Arrived for brunch, found a table, chose from the menu and went to queue to order inside. After 25mins waiting to order we have up and left. If it takes that long to order, how long will it take for food to arrive?

The best vegan food in canterbury - sweet and savoury

The food taste very nice and what I really like about this place that it have a lot of vegan options as compared to other branded chains. The staff is really helpful. Great atmosphere overall.

Such a gem in Canterbury. We love the food its healthy and delicious! Nowhere else like it!

One of the best places in Canterbury, food is healthy and delicious, very wholesome place.

Full vegan restaurant with high quality food, very close to the cathedral wall entrance.

A cozy place with delicious food and super friendly staff! Definitely recommend 👌

Great find! Delicious, local, organic, plant based food. The place was heaving! Really popular & great buzz. Service was friendly & so much variety of foods to choose from! I had the farinata with salad as you can see in the pic!

I had the Farinata with full salad, which was delicious. It was the perfect amount of food, healthy and varied. You get to choose 3 toppings from their fermented selection. Really good spot for a quick bite.

Amazing restaurant for lunch. Large portions, seasonal tasty homemade food and it's all healthy.

The food was good and the different options were very interesting and original

Great experience! Recommended for vegetarians and vegans.

relaxing environment with helpful staff

Just had the vegan lasagna which came with all the salada and I just couldn’t decide what tasted better! Delicious and a very generous portion.

Very friendly staff and delicious food

Very friendly. Great options. Fresh food and delicious.

3/5. The "pear&raspberry organic juice" turned out to be "apple and summer berries" juice from a bottle. Also slightly pricey. +1 for having a tap with water and glasses nearby!

I really like this place. Good food, portions and prices and nice venue. The only slight let down was my curry not being heated through properly.

Lovely vegan cafe in the centre of Canterbury. Good selection of healthy veggie bowls and some naughtier treats, like the amazing berry, banana and maple syrup pancakes 🥞🫐 The staff are always friendly, and the atmosphere is very lively, especially on weekends.

It’s always a joy to come here. The food changes everyday and it’s always tasty, colourful and nutritional!

Wouldn’t have sought out a veggie restaurant but had a recommendation from a Canterbury local. Stunning food, truly delicious. If you’re veggie, Gluten free or just hungry, this is the place. Very reasonable prices for such delicious fresh food.

Changed hands, I think; and gone very much downhill

Wonderful place with great food, service and atmosphere.

Really love the vibe and the food. Very healthy options. Comforting and energising. Love the sweet potato fritters, Olson loved the pancake

We love the Buddha bowl here, coming here again just to have this.

We absolutely love The Veg Cafe as a family, to study or just to enjoy really good, wholesome, quality and delicious food! Really recommend been coming here for years and always will 🥰

Delicious! A wide range of gluten free options

Amazing choice of vegan cakes and drinks (amongst other things!) in a lovely setting. I highly recommend!

I've been going for years, and my favourite place to go to Canterbury highly recommended 👌

Staff serves with smile and gives alternative..

Food is incredible, the staff are always smiling such a great place to eat on a nice sunny day.

I LOVE IT HERE! Me and my partner are 20 years old vegans and we drive an hour just to eat here some days! It’s super healthy and so packed with flavour. If you’re vegan or not and want a healthy and tasty lunch with lots of different options on one plate. This is for you. Dessert is unique and tasty too. Coffee is 5 star. Staff are beautiful too. IF YOURE THINKING ABOUT IT, JUST DO IT ❤️

Lovely place with a good selection of vegan dishes and delicious cakes, tad expensive hence 4*

Great healthy and delicious food in Canterbury! Such a fanI love this cafe!

Great place to sit outdoor in the heart of the pedestrian city centre. Great curry, variety of salads with/without fermented pickles, delicious gluten-free cake and perfect cappuccino. Definitely the place to go!

Delicious food and a great find! The food was great and satisfied the vegetarians as well as the meat eaters in our family. We tried all the specials - Sri Lankan curry, GF veg lasange, tomato soup and loaded jacket potatoes. Nice hearty lunch and a welcome break from sandwiches.

Very tasty vegetarian food, very friendly staff and beautiful location. We certainly will come back!

You are never disappointed, we had a lovely vegetable curry for lunch and coffee and a very welcoming service, the staff are really kind and helpful.

One of my favourite cafes in Canterbury. Really delicious healthy food and friendly staff.

Excellent service, food and cleanliness. Highly recommend stopping here on your trip to Canterbury!

Excellent food and atmosphere, staff are friendly too so will definitely come back

Cozy atmosphere, very good buddha bowls and nice staff!

Food was lovely and service was very good.

Nice vegan options. Friendly staff

I have been to Veg café several time alone and with friends. It always has a warm welcoming energy. The food is amazing and I love all the vegan cakes. My favourite is the coffee walnut, a must try!. I must visit when you are in Canterbury Town Novlyn Barreto

Absolutely beautiful tasty food.👌

Homemade healthy food, tastes great and good value! They even had a student discount :)

Love this place. I’ve been vegan for 3 years and counting and it makes me so happy when I see a place that really does vegetables justice and serves food that makes you feel so refreshed and healthy. Definitely give this a go- I had the mushroom wellington and it was incredible! Staff were very nice as well. They also do homemade kombucha but it was sold out- will be back to try!

Food is Amazing! Staff are friendly

Nice Vegan and vegetarian flavours

Love it at veg box. Friendly atmosphere. Delicious food. Our favourite place to eat

Amazing experience, very hygienic as well as tasty food. The entire staff was really friendly. Very clean toilet.

Always lovely service and the best vegan food in Canterbury

Best place vegan and vegetarian food. Good Ambiance

Another great experience at The Veg Box Cafe - our favourite place for lunch in Canterbury! Delicious salads and yummy cakes too!

Have been coming here for a while. It’s my favourite eating spot in Canterbury! Never had a bad meal, staff always friendly, will keep coming back!

We have visited Canterbury from New Zealand six times in recent years, having a daughter & family living here. When we think of food and coffee in Canterbury this is an absolute fav. Love the vegetarian/vegan options, the freshness of ingredients, coffee, and the very reasonable prices.

I'm not vegan, but this is one of my favourite places to go for lunch in Canterbury. It just feels so healthy, so packed full of nutrients. It always tastes amazing. And I'm super picky with restaurants normally but I go there and then don't stress afterwards that I've pigged out and ruined my diet. The portions are huge. Even my boyfriend loves it and he's the biggest meat eater I know. Definitely recommend for lunch.

Delicious, fresh and innovative whole food cooking. Always amazed at their beautiful salad creations (a work of art) wonderful flavours and texture combinations, expertly served to complement one another. If you appreciate real food and you cook yourself, you will see that this establishment understands food, and how to make each ingredient sing 💚 Long live the veg box!

Came for some lunch with a friend and had a really nice time! The interior is nicely spaced out and designed with pretty cool colour combinations. I love that there are couches towards the back, very cosy. I ordered the hot pot, (which changes daily) and was lucky to have this amazing Sri Lankan curry! It came with rice too and some delicious veggies on the sides. To drink I had this smoothie mixed with beetroot, bananas and some other ingredients. It was pretty good! I definitely will be back.

Bozena and Russell, who are the owners of this shop, are EXTREMELY unprofessional. Their cafe is unhygienic and their employees are overworked. They both run this cafe but have zero work ethic. The food has potential to be good but the place is extremely unhygienic. They don’t treat their employees well. Admin lacks professionalism.

Food ok, but didn't have half of the vegan full breakfast available after we ordered. They offered part meal, but took refund. Waited a long time for coffees and cake and served after others who arrived later. Dog barking in cafe was loud, but dog settled once it had something to eat.

Very nice vegan place with plenty of options and their own fermentation station

Great vegan place to eat. The food tastes very good, the staff is very nice. A bit pricy. We kept coming back while in Canterbury.

The vegan paradise in Canterbury! Nice staff and delicious food. The prices are a bit high but it's worth it. Lasagna was amazing and the vegan cake with nuts and coffee incredible! We were in the city for four days and every day we went to the vegbox :)

Had a lovely breakfast, staff very friendly and accommodating

The service was OK - you choose what you want at the counter and someone brings it to you. It was crowded inside, so we sat outdoors. I gave 4 stars to the food because my spouse enjoyed it more than I did. There are not enough options for people who have to avoid carbohydrates. Each day there is a different menu, but it is limited in its choices.

Outstanding food, lovely outdoor seating area and well priced. Would definately visit again and please open up more cafes!

Food 10/10, everything we had was super tasty! Saturday lunchtime was busy and felt quite noisy, we chose to sit outside instead. Speed of service was a little lacking on our visit but would definitely recommend this place for a colourful plate of deliciousness.

Love this restaurant The foods amazing

Lunch menu excellent value but cake very overpriced !!

Oh i loved the place… specially the staff was super sweet and quick to serve. Food was delicious and fresh. Heavenly experience for all the vegetarians out there. Also recommend for all the vegans.

Best place to have the vegan food in Canterbury ✨ The food, staff and owners are so good and welcoming. Highly recommending this place. Must visit ✨

The Veg Box Cafe serves delicious plant-based dishes in a cozy setting, with fresh ingredients and friendly service. A must-visit for vegan and vegetarian food lovers!! Perfect price and quality ratio!! 10/10

Such a great staff: Deeksha, Khyati, and Akanksha. This is the best place for vegetarians and has a very decent ambience.

We loved the food. Delicious. Tastes so good. And really good for the mind and the body.
