Great food and drink, easy-to-use ordering app for social distancing. So nice to visit somewhere where everything is automatically vegan instead of having to scan the menu looking for the one or two vegan options!

Staff friendly and helpful. Food fab and tasty. Booked outside table but weather turned and they automatically moved us in inside. Will go back. Lovely local gin and tonic too. Great to have a Vegan restaurant dedicated to my needs and wants. Skin on fries were yummy as they were already salted. Menu app really easy to use as well as website to book a table. Thanks see you soon.

The vegan food was delicious. My husband ordered a burger with cheesy chips, onion rings and coleslaw. He was amazed at how delicious it all was, using no animal products . The restaurant is in a listed building and as such has uneven floors etc so probably needs money spending on it.

We ate at the Cornish Vegan twice while on our week long holiday in Cornwall. The food is amazing but the staff are outstanding, the customer experience is simply the best, these people really do everything possible to make your dining experience perfect. We wanted Cornish Vegan scones and yes they made us Cornish vegan scones that were exquisite. A visit to this place is a must for anybody visiting Cornwall.

First time since new owners. Dawn and Paul were a hard act to follow, but very glad to go and try out again. Pleased to say, despite the difficulties coping with all the recent turn of events and changes, the food was excellent and had a chat with one of the new owners, didn't get his name, but he was lovely, and definitely has a way with people. So good plant food and company in a lovely café, excellent service as well so very good value. We will visit again, thank you

Great little vegan restaurant doing vegan versions of gastro-pub style style foods (tacos, hot dogs, burgers, Asian-style mushroom stew). Lovely service from the owner. Small courtyard garden (protected from the elements and outdoor heater).

As always the food was great, cannot fault it! We were just a little disappointed that there was no covered outside seating and that this was not made clear upon booking or on the website/ social media. This meant we had to eat in the rain as we didnt know to come prepared, we assumed that like most places a parasol or similar would at least be in place. The staff had little to offer in a way of apology and kept making jokes about how it’s something different to experience which felt a bit insulting but we do appreciate being able to stand inside during the worst of it. Overall, just make it clear that your outside seating is exposed and theres no cover...

We had a lovely experience at the Cornish Vegan. The food was fabulous, authentic vegan versions of classic dishes - we had the nachos, fish and chips and poutine, and would highly recommend all of them. We were there on a quieter night so we were able to chat with the owners - Graham and Rob - which was a lovely addition to the already beautiful outdoor seating ambiance they’ve created.
