Such beauty. A few options to choose from. On this occasion they had cabbage slaw, potato salad and a superfood salad. Beautiful combination of flavours. The superfood salad was packed with beans, quinoa, nuts and seeds and oh my that tahini-turmeric dressing. The potato and dill was such a lovely combo and especially when combined with the red cabbage and butterbean slaw. Comes in two sizes, this was the large for £10.95, and i packed some of it home for the next day’s lunch. #salad #quinoa #potato #cabbage #edadme #saladbowl #buddhabowl Fully vegan cafe that’s part of the Buddhist centre, which holds meditation classes etc next door. Their food is really tasty, and quite reasonably priced, given portion sizes. I’ve only had their salads and sandwiches, but they also have all-day brekkies, and a weekly special hot dish that always sounds so yummy. Next time.

Wowsers, I really love this. The smashed edamame was so rich in flavour, and the oyster mushrooms were so tasty. Layers of flavour in a seeded bagel. Every bite of this was divine. You can opt to have this with a side salad too. Top marks. #bagel #veganbagel #toastedbagel #edamame #edamamebeans #oystermushrooms #seededbagel #everythingbagel Vegan cafe run by lovely folks.

Such a treat. Each bite was heaven. Light and with just the right amount of chocolate. I believe a couple of the baked goods here were baked by Okja, but i’m happy to be corrected. In any case, Mandala has a lovely selection of sweets, including a number that are baked in-house. Looking forward to trying their other items soon. #painauchocolate #veganpastries #vegansweets A lovely place. Fully vegan, non-profit cafe run in partnership with a buddhist centre.

Pain au chocolate

Chai to walk away but I stumbled. Still I enjoyed this thoroughly. It’s got a nice spicy kick to it, and isn’t overly sweet. Oat milk is the default here, but you can request other plant milks for no extra cost. Mandala Cafe has a pretty extensive drinks menu that i’m keen to explore, including various lion’s mane and turmeric drinks, hot chocolates, smoothies, and more. #chai #chailatte #veganchai #chaiyourluck #chaiharder Fully vegan, non-profit cafe in Bethnal Green and a sweet place.

This was rich in flavour, and a simply beautiful brew. I’m keen to explore the many drinks on Mandala’s menu. Beyond coffees and teas, they have turmeric- and lion’s mane-based drinks, hot chocs, smoothies and kombuchas too. Something for everyone. Oat is their default milk, but others are available, no extras. #blackcoffee #coffee #vegancoffee #ditchdairy Fully vegan, non-profit cafe in Bethnal Green that deserves more attention.

Such a delightful salad. Its got a healthy serve of quinoa, chickpeas, cranberries and nuts and seeds and more, Topped with tenderstem broccoli and a creamy turmeric-tahini dressing. It’s a mighty tasty salad, and that tahini dressing brought everything together so well. You can get this in different sizes: regular, large or as a side to any of their sandwiches or savoury bakes/rolls, as i’ve done here. Even as a side this was really filling. Pretty sure it’s not too bad for you either. #quinoa #salad #chickpeas #tahini #tenderstem #broccoli Fully vegan, non-profit cafe in Bethnal Green. Lovely space and beautiful people.

This was one beautiful sandwich, these photos don’t do it justice. Soft roll with baked tofu and a homemade kimchi, plus lettuce and a miso mayo. It’s as beautiful and simple as it sounds, and oh my it was just so gorgeous! That homemade kimchi was so lovely. You can get this on its own, or with a side salad for an extra 3 quid like i did. You can request for it to be toasted. #tofu #kimchi #sandwich #veganroll a lovely place that deserves more attention. Fully vegan non-profit cafe for everyone, run by buddhist folks.
