Lord Roberts On The Green - Croydon

What a beautiful jewel, hidden by a village green. very friendly and chatting staff. there are vegan items on the menu and also a selection of vegan bakery items. the place itself is cozy with tables both inside and outside and much parking space. would not hesitate to go back, loved everything about it.

This restaurant, located on the outskirts, is a gem for vegetarians and vegans. The staff, including the owners, are extremely friendly and eager to hear feedback. The manager, who is vegan, heavily influences the menu offerings. They offer two milk options for coffee, delicious vegan and gluten-free brunch choices, and even had cakes available during our visit. It was a pleasant surprise!

This restaurant review is a mix of positive and negative feedback. On the positive side, the reviewer mentions that they appreciate the vegan options available at the restaurant and plan to come back to support this initiative. They also praise the friendly table service and pleasant environment outside. However, they were disappointed when they were unable to order a vegan cake as the vegan cook was on vacation. The staff offered a gluten-free option instead, showing a lack of understanding of the vegan diet. The reviewer suggests that staff could benefit from some training on veganism to avoid such situations in the future. They also mention a mix-up with their soy hot chocolate, which contained milk powder. Overall, the reviewer believes the restaurant has potential but recommends implementing a backup plan for when the vegan cook is unavailable and providing staff with education on vegan diets to prevent misunderstandings.

We had a wide variety of vegan cake options available at this restaurant today. There was a delicious chocolate layer cake, lemon cake, fruitcake with the choice of coconut cream, vegan scones with currants (also available as part of a vegan cream tea), and a vegan banana dessert. They also offered a choice of soy, almond or coconut milk for coffee or tea. I particularly enjoyed the peanut butter chocolate cake, as the sponge was very good and the taste was delicious. I would highly recommend it. The lemon cake was also very tasty. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was lovely. The restaurant usually offers vegan breakfast options, and I am not sure when they stop serving them. Hopefully, they will have more lunch options soon, but for now, they have a simple sandwich available. The location is beautiful, with a view of greenery, outdoor seating, and easy (and free) parking. This place is also a small deli and post office, making it a convenient stop for refreshments and picking up fresh bread when sending a package.

Vegetarian and Vegan friendly restaurant hidden in suburbia. The staff were very friendly, as were the owners who we met whilst there and they were really keen to hear our feedback. The manager is vegan so has a large amount of input into the menu and what is available. Two milk options for nicely made coffee, amazing vegan and gluten free brunch options and I even had cake for the first time in ages! No complaints.
