Small plates delight

Booked to eat here Friday night on our way up to Edinburgh. Small bistro vibe at night. Delicious wine and food. Friendly service. The leek dish was fabulous.

Nice

Our breakfasts were a bit different to the ordinary 'vegan full English', so that was nice. The atmosphere and feel of the place is lovely and the owner(?) was really nice and so friendly.
The ethos of the cafe is superb. Zero waste, nothing to landfill, as Eco as it gets!
The only criticism is that the Remedy big breakfast arrived already cold. The flavours were great, the presentation awesome, but please, heat up the plates before serving. They were stone cold.
We were hoping for a great coffee (having read the reviews). We visited York for 2 nights, 3 days and didn't manage a decent coffee during our entire stay, so our criticism here isn't reserved just for this cafe. Is the coffee in York just weak or does everyone just prefer tea? 🙄

Support Remedy and give them a visit. They're doing a lot of really great things.

Pros: The flavours and quality of the food , The friendly service , How eco-friendly it is. It couldn't be better!

Cons: Cold plates, leads to cold food , Weak coffee

Such delicious breakfast food

The French toast was gorgeous- the rhubarb topping was amazing and the lemon cheesecake style topping was just delicious. Husband had pancakes. We were offered more water to top up our teas with. It’s a no waste place which is brilliant.

Pros: Delicious food, Value for money, Ethos

Love this review! Mate, one of the many reasons we are here is because we all wanted a café where we could go in and talk to the staff like they are our friends and that is why we are all friendly as ‘a duck’ or however you put it. 😉
Thanks for the five stars and hopefully we see you again soon.

Exceptional

I went to remedy after following them on Instagram for a good period of time, and based on this it's safe to say my expectations were high.

As soon as we turned up, we knew our expectations would be exceeded but not quite how much they would be.

Remedy is a very special place. From the food to the drinks to the hosting - I say hosting because Remedy isn't just a cafe where you turn up and someone takes your order.

The staff are all chatty, explaining the menu in depth, and are clearly passionate about what they're doing. This elevated remedy in my opinion to one of the best cafes I've ever visited.

The food was exquisite. It's so good we also returned the next day for breakfast so we could sample more of the menu.

Miso mushrooms, scrambled chickpeas, french toast, everything was impeccable and we can't wait to return.

Pros: Everything, Incredible hosts, Amazing menu

Remedy

Plant-Based Paradise: Remedy's Vegan Haven in York

Nestled in the heart of York, Remedy emerges not just as a cafe but as a sanctuary for those in search of solace and delightful culinary experiences. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with the warmth and friendliness that only the most welcoming of establishments can offer. This isn't just a cafe; it's a home away from home, where every visit enriches your soul and tantalises your taste buds.

For those who find themselves in York, even if just for a few days, Remedy quickly becomes a beloved fixture in their daily routine—a place where the staff remember your order and greet you with a smile that's genuine and heartwarming.

The culinary offerings are nothing short of spectacular. The Remedy breakfast, with its standout chickpea scramble, is a testament to the creativity and passion that goes into every dish. But it's not just the breakfast that will leave you in awe; the evening dining experience is an adventure in itself. Available on Fridays and Saturdays, the wine and small plates menu is a showcase of imaginative and expertly crafted dishes that will redefine your expectations of what can be achieved with simple plant-based ingredients. The transformation of a humble cabbage into a culinary masterpiece is something that has to be tasted to be believed.

What sets Remedy apart, even more, is their commitment to sustainability and a circular economy. Their actions speak volumes about their dedication to making a positive impact on the planet, one edible takeaway cup at a time. It's a reminder that great vegan food and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand, creating an experience that's not only satisfying but also ethically rewarding.

Amazing brunch

Went here with my girlfriend for a quick brunch. Service was quick and smooth. The food arrived promptly and the open kitchen design is refreshing. I love the interior of it - we were there during a mushroom delivery and it was great to see so much fresh produce with so little waste.

Pros: Amazing food , Nice vibe

Thank you for the five stars, Alexander. Glad you enjoyed your time here. I think you’re gonna have to come for our small plates and wine nights to get a taste of some of the mushrooms you saw delivered.

A Remedy giving me hope

Very welcoming owner/staff that read out the ingredients of the dishes on the menu board. We wanted them all and both settled on the spears on crispy kale and hummus with chilli oil, which was scrumptious. We also had the Juliene Bruno on sourdough toast, which was delicious. We will definitely be back and hopefully soon at my wish to celebrate 4yrs a Vegan there💚💚💚

My new favourite cafe

I finally made it here today (ok I don't get out much but when I do I like to avoid the chains) how lovely to be able to spend my money in place that shares some of my values(maybe quite a few).
Service was bright and pleasant. I just had an americano with oat and a pastry. Both were great. Next time I'll try a savoury got my eye on mushrooms/chickpeas on toast or your burger.

Pros: Friendly staff, Great menu no processed stuff , Nice atmosphere

Cons: Coffee cups rather than mugs.

Remedy

22 Oct 2023

Thanks for your great review.
Next time you pop in you might notice we have some mugs hanging on the wall, we do this so if people would like a takeaway coffee, instead of putting it in the plastic not so compostable cup we can put it in a mug and they can bring it back later. You can always have your coffee in one of these mugs, even to sit in and enjoy your afternoon with in.
All the best.

Amazing, friendly, ethical must-visit

Best breakfast in town with huge attention to the ethics & sustainability of what they serve. Vegan pancakes, french toast with coffee & chocolate butter, sourdough with gorgeous toppings, fantastic coffee & home baked cakes. And to top it all, the service couldn't be friendlier.

Delicious food & coffee, great environmental ethos

We loved this café —both for its delicious fare and its environmentally conscious ethos. The lattes were terrific, served either in standard mugs or edible cups (which taste like an ice cream cone). And the lovely, friendly proprietors told us how deliberate they are with how they source the coffee—it’s carbon neutral, from a special coffee grower, shipped sustainably and roasted in a carbon neutral roaster powered by hydrogen.
The food was amazing too! The Big Brekky had miso mushrooms on sourdough bread spread with a plant-based cheese, beans, greens, and slow-roasted tomatoes—it was both original and delicious. The french toast was really tasty, especially the delectable chocolate butter on top!
We wish you well in your business, and hope to eventually find a shop like yours in the U.S.!

Pros: Excellent food and coffee, Lovely, friendly staff, Love their environmentally conscious ethos

Cons: This restaurant is in the UK, & we live in the US., No outdoor seating (we are Covid-cautious), but we, were able to eat food outside then return plates.

The best, most sustainable lunch in York!

The most sustainable, waste free place I've ever had lunch and the food was some of, if not the best food I've ever had in a cafe! We had the mushroom and cider/miso leeks sarny and I've have been dreaming of it ever since! Also, the coffee was amazing. The guy serving us (maybe the owner?) was incredibly friendly and went through every item on the menu in detail. Thank you for all the effort you are putting in to reduce your impact, your genuine dedication is really heartwarming.

THE BEST !

If you’re a vegan visiting York then this place is a MUST ! The food is delish & devine & the service is so friendly and good . The staff are soo passionate about their food and cafe . I had the aubergine sarny & my husband had the beans on toast which was no ordinary beans on toast & we had the potatoe salad to share because we wanted to try everything ! We were stuffed and everything was delish & tasty . I took away one of their cakes to eat later . Our dog got some treats too. Everything is eco friendly as well as vegan . Can’t recommend this place highly enough . Wish them every success !

Pros: Loved Everything !
