Staying overnight in Crawley, we were craving a substantial breakfast and while I often struggle to find something vegan, my partner was more than happy to go meat-free this time. The only other vegan venue in town has moved over to burgers and poke bowls but Sage offers a Full Vegan breakfast and that's exactly what we wanted!
The food is delicious (I personally loved the scrambled tofu) and not a bad price nowadays - £12.95 for the aforementioned scrambled tofu, mushrooms, beans, tomato, hash browns, sausages, and sourdough toast. Another couple of quid and you can have 2 rashers of vegan bacon (which, of course, I did!). The menu also offers various light bites and more filling plates. I'm already planning to drop in on my next way through Crawley, just to try out their mixed kebab grill. And yes, everything is still plant-based!
There's a good range of coffees with a couple of specialities (I opted for the Matcha Latte) and a selection of non-dairy milks such as oat, coconut, and soya. Also juices, soft drinks, etc.
The venue is nicely decorated in a clean and modern style - there's wood panelling offset by crafty back boards and large shaded lights arching over each table. It has a relaxed and inviting feel to it, backed up by the service, which was friendly and welcoming. It's always nice to have a light-hearted conversation that doesn't feel forced, and this place has that natural charm throughout.
In short, this is now one of my favourite vegan cafés, especially being one that caters for us herbivores as well as any flexitarian friends that may want to join us. Situated along the southern end of the historic High Street, it's also a convenient location, so the best of all worlds!
This is a lovely place for freshly cooked quality food. There's a great selection of meals. The prices are very reasonable.The staff are friendly and helpful.
The staff at Kitchen Royale are always a pleasure to deal with, from the friendly phone call to the warm welcome inside. Their chicken madras was absolutely delicious. they're definitely our go-to curry house in Crawley.
Lovely café. Freshly made paninis & baguettes to order. Fab coffee. Large portions of everything. Clean & fresh air. Such a lovely escape from the mall & great value too. Very impressed.
Best sausage and bacon bap I’ve ever had (and I’ve had plenty). Went with my family and we’re made to feel very welcome by the lovely staff. Beautiful settings surround the dining area outside. 100% would recommend to everyone and a good excuse to come back to Tilgate park.
Love the food from amma! We are a vegan family, and don’t struggle at all to eat here. All dishes can be made vegan. They use probiotics and healthier alternatives to white refined flour.
The prices are amazing!
We usually spend £30 for a family of 4 and have left overs for the next day!
This has become my favourite place to get a takeaway!
***** from us!
My partner and I came across this place today. We were greeted as soon as we came in, very friendly service! Food came out quickly and was a generous portion. Very tasty! The chef came out to check everything was ok. The owner explained the plans going forward and they sound great. We will definitely be back :)
My better half and I stumbled across this venue the other week when only outdoor seating was permitted. Had a pint and tried some of the Indian starters. Absolutely blown away by them so decided to return for a full on meal once indoors was open.
So glad we did. I’m of Indian origin and I would say it was the best Indian meal, besides my mother’s, I have ever had in the UK in my life. That is high praise and definitely warranted. This is a relatively new venture and to that end the dining area is being slowly but surely brought up to par with the food. The dinning area is clean and functional but not particularly atmospheric, that is however all forgotten about when the food arrives.
The chef takes great pride and on both occasions came to see us. He is very welcoming and has a great insight and wealth of experience in many types of cuisine.
So I would throughly recommend this venue to eat and am already planning my next visit to try other dishes on the menu!
Spotlessly clean, friendly staff, smashed burger meal was outstanding freshly cooked food piping hot excellent quality ingredients, great value would definitely recommend
Ordered fish and chips this evening.
Fish was well cooked and very tasty! Chip portion was large, the chips were piping hot, fresh and delicious. Will order again soon!
