The Veg Box Cafe

It's in a very central location, near the cathedral, under beautiful arches. Very beautiful spot. One girl at the counter was very helpful, some other a bit less. Food was ok, not the worst, not the best. I got my order slightly wrong, but it wasn't the end of the world, I ate it anyway. The soup of the day in my opinion was a bit acidic.. even if I only had 4-5 spoons, I felt it coming back up few hours later. Maybe was just not a lucky one!

Recommended by our tour guide and indeed it is healthy and delicious. Four stars list though for the attitude of the Indian (?) cashier with glasses. Before cutoff for all other food and she BLUNTLY said she could only do one dish and rang it up right away without asking if wanted anything else - I could have gone for a pastry but I guess no thank you… rude enough that I wouldn’t myself come back

It is such a shame; this used to be one of my favourite cafes in Canterbury. Whilst the food is still tasty, the portion sizes for the price are stupidly small. I paid £11.60 this weekend for a buddha bowl to take away and was given about half of a standard portion that didn’t even cover the bottom of the container, and went less than half the way up the sides. The quantity was probably worth about £5. The staff were absolutely run off their feet and the service was incredibly slow. Really disappointing. Unfortunately, I cannot continue to recommend this spot.

The food was delicious. Loved that the full English included veges. The garlic mushrooms and tofu were particularly tasty. Recommend getting a juice or smoothie and your coffee elsewhere. Milk steamed to very high temp which curdles some plant milks such as soy 😅 We came back a second time for the food. Tasty cakes to take away as well 🍰

One of the best meals I’ve had in a minute. Gorgeous food bonus that it’s all so healthy and flavoursome ! Can’t believe I had to go all the way to Canterbury to find out there is a branch in London also :)

I had the Sri Lankan curry with rice and fermented veg. It was so delicious and had a great depth of flavour. The place is very nice and the service is lovely. Will definitely eat here again if passing by Canterbury again.

I love coming back here. Whether lush lunch or a coffee with cake, the food never disappoints. All vegan, and gf option are widely available. Staff are ever so friendly, too.

What a lovely place to stop for some lunch. Was pretty busy when we arrived but food wasn’t delayed and everything was super tasty! The Sri Lankan Hot Pot stole the show however, the coronation chickpea in the Buddha Bowl was sensational! Thank you so much!
