What danjamesadams doesn't like about The Potting Shed Cafe:
As the title says, we only popped in after a parkrun for a coffee (an oat latte and oat mocha), alongside a vegan caramel apple Betty all of which was nice enough! It looks like they do a vegan halloumi for their mains/lunches, as this was demoted on the menus. View all feedback. What User likes about The Potting Shed Cafe:
a beautiful location with panoramic views over the forest. fresh home made eating wide, from salads, burger specialties and homemade cakes. temptation galore .. whether to breakfast, lunch or afternoon. also a visit is worth a farm. View all feedback.

It's a lovely place in a great location but they could do a lot more vegan options! They're quite limited.
