I was recommended the jackfruit toastie, which was tasty but could have used more filling. Unfortunately, it was prepared with butter on the outside before being toasted.

I give it 3 stars for having plenty of clearly labeled vegan options.

The staff recommended the jackfruit toastie, which was flavorful but could have had more filling. I suspect it may have been spread with butter on the outside before toasting. Despite this, I would return in a hurry.
