Urban Butterfly in Cambridge

Thank you to the owner for providing us with nutritious and healthy vegetarian food, and she is also willing to specially cooperate with us to customize some dishes to accommodate religious dietary restrictions. The owner and worker are friendly, polite and warm. This is a recommended place.

Great quality food 💖 Great service 😍

Super cozy place with nice vegan food. They even have vegan soft serve! The staff was really friendly, and they have a great taste in music :)

I really enjoyed the food and very reasonably priced

Lovely little café, great location, tasty coffee. A few suggestions: some background music would be nice, and maybe some savory pastry options (croissants etc). Natural plants would be better too.

Urban butterfly is a fantastic little cafe in the heart of Cambridge. If you’re looking for a healthy vegan breakfast with excellent coffee and tea, choose Urban Butterfly. The owner is very kind and even tried to help us find lodging during a busy week when there was not many options available.

Decent food. Sweet little veggie cafe. Recommended.

Super tasty vegan food, great options to choose from and very friendly personnel. Big recommendation for a quick, healthy lunch :)

I love love love this place! I recommend the special wrap. It was delicious. The atmosphere is lovely and the owner was so kind.

I visit frequently with my young daughter and we are always made to feel so welcome by the lovely owner. Fantastic choice of vegan offerings in a relaxed and warm environment. Our favourite place to eat! Best veggie burger in Cambridge, best chips in the known universe (ask the toddler!).

Absolutely wonderful cafe offering delicious plant based food in the heart of Cambridge. Incredibly welcoming and the lovely owner is always so kind to my toddler. The food could not be more delicious and I also highly recommend the smoothies. Perfect place to people watch too, as it has a fantastic view of the park. We so enjoy every visit, it's become a regular family tradition, one we always look forward to.

Lovely plant-based food. Highly recommended💚

Lovely food, ordered Moroccan Bowl and loaded fries, berry smoothie and plant based ice cream, enjoyed every thing , service was great and the lady on counter ( also the owner of the place) was lovely

Found this beautiful independent coffee shop after we arrived in Cambridge for the first time. This is run by very beautiful and caring people which can be seen in their service. We were hesitant to order food as we have allergies regarding some food ingredients but they were very gracious and pro-active to prepare it according to our food habits. It has very relaxing atmosphere and food menu is interesting where you would want to order everything

Lovely atmosphere and the food is an A+. Buddha bowls are amazing

Yuck horrible food and hairs found in my food ! I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant at all .. I found the staff to be ok but definitely not over friendly or welcoming .

One of the Best plan based cafe in city, the food is just authentic with lovely and welcoming staff.

The staff here were so kind! It was really lovely to chat with them, they made me feel very welcome and I thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the space, it's a very beautiful location and lots of natural sunlight which is always a plus for me. I ordered the mexican Buddha bowl which was yummy! Just not as filling/ big as I'd anticipated for the price of it (but she eat a lot so that's probably a me not them kinda thing)! Would definitely be back 😄

Good food and friendly staff. We loved our buddah bowls.

Very relaxed, speedy service, lovely lunch

First time here, and long time omnivore. Was a bit uncertain vis a vis Buddha bowls. But I was soundly disproved! The freshest and most filling Buddha Bowl I've ever had, and a great coffee too! My gf's Panini was also excellent. Come for the great food and drink. Stay for the people watching!

Tried the soup of the day, super comforting!

I had a light Sunday lunch at Urban Butterfly. The welcome was friendly; the service fast; and the food authentic and delicious. I particularly enjoyed being able to look out onto Parker's Piece from my table at the back of the restaurant

I had a delicious Buddha bowl, if I worked in Cambridge I could easily eat there everyday. The owner was also very understanding when my 2 year old left crumbs everywhere. If you like healthy fresh food or independent options, it’s the place to go.

Lovely, quirky, friendly vegetarian cafe with an actual menu choice! The samosas were so good we had to order more to go and the Buddha Bowl was delicious. All food made to order so was fresh and tasty. Wish we lived nearer as this would be our local’

Delicious burger with amazing chutney. Great location & pleasant staff. Recommended.

My favourite lunch time spot! Friendly staff and great vegan food with loads of options

It is a very cute cafe, absolutely loved the menu. The food was so delicious and the lady who runs it is so so nice.

Cosy little cafe. Delicious plant based menu. Buddha bowls absolutely amazing and hot paninis yummy. Scrumptious hot chocolate. Excellent value for money especially in pricey Cambridge !!! Friendly & lovely service. Thank you 🙏

Friendly service but the paninis were just not tasty, pity.

Amazing vegan restaurant. The food is delicious, fresh and filled with love. The ambience is peaceful and grounding. I already visited like 5 times and let me tell you the food hits everytime My favorite food here is the Falafel with Hummus as a starter, the hot chocolate to drink, the carrot cake for dessert and the three fold wrap(Med-style) as a main dish. I will definitely be coming back here. If you like vegan food then this will be your new favorite restaurant.

Me and my best friend came here after being recommended it, the food and drinks were amazing and the atmosphere was wonderful. This is one of the best cafes I’ve been to in Cambridge and will definitely be back. (: If you are vegan or vegetarian I would highly recommend this place!

WOW. Gorgeous, healthy, tasty food, lovely friendly staff. A great start for a first visit. Will look forward to many more visits, and will be recommending to everyone. Can't stress enough how tasty the food was. A lucky find for us as we were actually looking for something else and entered on the spur of the moment. My partner is vegetarian and it was good to see that there was nothing on the menu that she could not eat. I myself enjoy a meat dish, but could eat at Urban Butterfly all day long. A lovely cup of coffee too, which is a bonus.

Lots of great vegan choices, great location and atmosphere. Staff are friendly and service is great

Only had a coffee but it was very enjoyable. Beautiful location and great atmosphere

We have visited Cambridge just for a day out and popped our heads in looking for a hot chocolate to warm up. They were clearly about to close up but served us with a smile and we had two delicious oat milk hot chocolates made with real (vegan) chocolate and a nice chat with the lovely lady who served us. There is a discount for local students and key workers and lots of delicious looking lunch food and snacks available as well as smoothies and milkshakes. Cannot recommend enough!

Had a great lunch here with my family - we had a bit of everything (as my daughter couldn't decide) but highly recommend the superfood Buddha bowl, burger, loaded fries, and Biscoff milkshake! Service was friendly and personal, with great interest taken into where we were from and what prompted our visit. Will definitely return next time we come to Cambridge.

Great food, great service. Reasonably priced. Very friendly, kind staff. Well done team.

A nice chilled spot near parkers piece with tasty smoothies and a decent sandwich

Kind staff and good food. Really cute place :)

Falafel and salad were delicious! The only place in Cambridge (that I know of) where you can get healthy and delicious salad bowls!! Sonella is very friendly and they prepare the food quickly. Thank you!

Stopped in on the way to Christ's college and loved the carrot cake aswell as the smoothie. Excellent find.

Great vegetarian options and very reasonably priced

Great hosts that serve beautifully presented vegan food.

Very expensive for toasted paninni. £6.40

it was a really nice place the food was good and it’s a really nice location

We crossed this place post lunch on a hot summer afternoon and went in to grab some vegan icecream and sadly it wasn't good at all. We took the vanilla flavor and it tasted like a gulp of sugar and nothing else! The food may be good but their ice cream is a no-no for me.

Delicious affogato and falafels

Lovely food and quiet at lunch time.

The food, drink and atmosphere at urban butterfly is absolutely amazing. The staff are extremely friendly and will happily chat and answer any questions about the food. The menu is delicious and constantly expanding over the time I've been here, particularly reccomend the ice cream and the soups!

A very welcoming little oasis. The smoothies are truly wonderfu Our family, consisting of one vegan, and three people willing to eat healthy food, really enjoyed our lunch at the Urban Butterfly. We devoured two beautifully presented and very tasty Buddha bowls and two excellent painis! Sonal and her family have created a lovely space in which to eat 'well' and we shall all return. Thankyou so much Sonal we all had a really lovely visit to your restaurant.

Really friendly and quite coffee/cake place

Really cute place with super friendly staff. The burger and fries were the best that we have ever eaten and the soft ice were also very good 🙂 Highly recommended!

Really cute place and nice, kind staff. We got there for lunch and got a few different things to share. The falafels and hummus were amazing! The mexican buddha bowl was good but flavors could be improved to mix better. The oriental burger was really really good, we all loved it. The pesto and mozzarella panini was a bit disappointing because there was very little dried tomatoes and the mozzarella wasn’t the best. Overall we enjoyed all of the other things and the experience was nice. The food was priced well for the portion.

We really enjoyed the scrumptious, colourful and nutritious lunch here after our spontaneous visit! Love the cafe, friendly customer service and ambiance! 😃 Brilliant vegan bowls, wraps, cakes and soft serve ice cream (just like a Mr Whippy 🤤).

As an avid meat-eater, I have always been extremely skeptical of vegan food and if it would ever compare to actual meat. I can confidently say that this place has singlehandedly changed my opinion and it will be the first place I recommend to everyone I know. It is, hands down, one of the best places to get a meal (let alone a vegan one). The atmosphere is incredibly warm and intimate, with a "home-cooked" and "family" vibe. My partner and I had the Thai Oriental Burger, the Samosas, and the loaded fries and they were absolutely divine. Service was very quick. Prices were also very reasonable. I will definitely be back to try everything! 11/10

Great Budha bowls and smoothies. The only disadvantage - no bathroom

Great service and amazing food!

Had a great time at the cafe today. Nice view of parkers pieces and the staff were very friendly!

Delicious vegan food served by friendly staff. The Buddha bowls were fantastic.

What a gem in central Cambridge! The food and drinks were amazing, and the owners and staff were warm, welcoming and friendly. Refreshing to go somewhere with an almost entirely vegan menu. Great vibe and great food. Will be visiting again!

The food at this café is all vegetarian, my partner was a little bit concerned about not having any meat but that quickly changed when he had his food. The Buddha Bowls were fresh, tasty and unlike anything I've had before. Worth a try if you are going past! (Side note: they don't have a toilet though)

Simply yummy plant-based food served by lovely people 😊 so reasonably priced with super fast service! Definitely coming back

A warm welcome, a calm relaxing space, and delicious food and drinks. Who could ask for more.

Clean space, lovely music and fantastic customer service! The food was brilliant and I HIGHLY recommend the Affogato!!! Perfect vegan option in Cambridge overlooking greenery!

The nicest, friendliest people and just such a lovely atmosphere. The superfood bowl is excellent. I'm not vegetarian or anything, it's just good food. Thanks!

Small friendly restaurant with small menu of beautifully cooked food and simple but well presented. The tastiest falafel I have tasted.

Very welcoming environment. Excellent service and outstanding food. Would recommend the tomato and red pepper soup (Best soup I’ve ever had). Highly recommended!!

i went recently after trying some of their milkshakes at freshers fair. they arent up on the menu but they are available and she was super lovely and came over to ask me if it was okay. would definitely go again, and theres multiple different milk options which was super lovely. i recommend them to everyone i meet

The food was absolutely delicious and the place is lovely. Sonal has been really welcoming and kind.

Superb. No fuss or gimmicks. Straight forward fresh, well thought out, well flavoured fresh food. Stopped for lunch as part of a day out. One of us vegetarian and one not. If all vegetarian food available was as good as this, then I think there would be more vegetarians. Certainly will be heading back, so our thanks to Urban Butterfly; the highlight of our day.

Healthy, delicious and good value - I would definitely recommend the soups :)

Went for lunch here with colleagues. Delicious food and really lovely service. I had samosas which were tasty and crispy. The chips had the most amazing seasoning. I look forward to going back on our next visit to Cambridge.

Lovely new place with great coffee and food on Parker’s Piece. Plant based food options etc . We had a nice Moroccan bowl; falafels are amazing.

Excellent vegan and vegetarian food. Highly recommend!

Tasty food, great selection and yummy cake too.. also very friendly owner and nice view onto parkers piece... we will be back :)

A fairly new vegan friendly cafe. The panini we had were excellent. But the best part was the wonderful, friendly service.

Hidden gem. Healthy and tasty and filling food. Great staff.

such a lovely cafe and the waitress was lovely, the food was great and quick service!

Lovely vegan cafe with warm and friendly staff and tasty food. Great coffee too. Very relaxed place and ideal for a quiet lunch.

Lovely cafe overlooking the park. The food was so fresh and delicious. You can tell everything is homemade and healthy!

Enjoyed finding this place fairly near the train station. Tasty and fresh food, great seating with lovely views and very friendly and hospitable staff. Hope to return soon!

amazing food, cute cafe, definitely recommend!

Incredible food — chatted with the owner who was lovely and so helpful. Highly recommend if you’re looking for fresh and light fold.

Amazing bowls, friendliest owner, plenty of space inside, so so so lovely. And very affordable!

Had lunch there today. Lovely food and setting, and friendly staff too. I hope they add a couple of kid options to the menu in the future. We will go back :)

Really tasty vegan food. Soups, panini and a delicious Thai inspired burger. The best bit is that everything is freshly prepared from real food - no over processed fake meat. Highly recommended.

I had a delicious meal that was gluten free, dairy free and egg free. The granola bar was scrumptious. I also had tomato and red pepper soup that was chunky and garnished with crispy onions. The Moroccan Buddha bowl was fantastic, hummus with pomegranate seeds, cucumber, chick peas, carrots over greens. The proprietor is so nice! A very enjoyable experience!!

Great food brilliant lunch Budda bowls excellent Thank you

Amazing food, made with love ! The mushroom soup is amazing

A lovely surprise! Stumbled upon this brilliant cafe and the food was utterly delicious! Incredibly friendly staff and scrumptious food.

Great food and very friendly service. The falafel were wonderful. I will certainly be going again very soon.

Excellent vegan eatery! Portions are very sufficient and packed with flavour. Perfect for a healthy breakfast/brunch or lunch. The staff were incredibly friendly and the falafel was to die for! Also, vegan vanilla ice cream is one of the nicest I've ever had. 10/10

Cute friendly cafe. The Moroccan Buddha bowl was delicious, best falafel!

Awesome options for vegans and vegetarians, and great customer service. Would recommend!

Was walking along Andrew road to the main road and chanced to see this quant little cafe by a quainter name Urban Butterfly..! Very unassuming in appearance, could be easily missed but entering it, had beautiful vibes, warm welcoming service and the best assortment of vegan and plant health test tasty food I have ever come across. Not only deserved to be my regular haunt but would also be in my rare highly recommended list. All the best and pray that more outlet branches flower.

Amazing veg food prepared freshly.. located in a very buzzing place. Highly recommended specially for vegans & vegetarians. Service was fantastic!!

I had the samosa with a dip, and a slice of carrot cake. Both delicious, and the best samosa I have ever eaten! The samosa was cooked fresh so I had to wait a few minutes for it to cook but worth it. I'm going back to try the falafel next!

Lovely friendly staff, the owner took the time to tell me about the lovely selection of veggie and vegan options. The food was really fresh and portions were decent. Great little find a bit of a hidden gem amongst all the chains. 🙂

Just opened Vegan and vegetarian eat in or take away lovely place and outstanding service by the staff. Highly recommended it. Panni, salad cakes and ice-cream how can you forget the coffee please go and try it ser fir yourself
