I’d heard great things about cafe sobar but was left underwhelmed after dining here. I had ordered the jackfruit panini but was first given a tuna panini which I obviously sent straight back. When the right meal came it was okay but nothing amazing. I asked if they had any vegan mayo and they got me the big tub from the kitchen but it seemed to have gone off. However there are a lot of vegan options on the menu so hopefully they are tastier.

There were many vegan and vegetarian options, the staff was very friendly. I got a student discount, so that's a plus. You can have water for free (tap). Not too expensive

For £7.95 you get 1 watery mushroom, deep fried flavourless tofu, chilli diced potatoes that again we're bland and lacking chilli and a dollop of unappetising wilted spinach. Side of toast came with butter.

Title sums it up. The fry is definitely one of the better vegan frys I've tried. There were some other vegan options too, so you won't be limited to just the fry. They even do a vegan biscoff cupcake, but these were sold out when I was there :
