Food Scene
Wildebeest
13 Arwenack StreetVegan. Amazing. Top ten ever restaurants for me.
This is a very very special place. This is a place to go and relax for a few hours with friends. You can have a wonderful vegetarian breakfast with great coffee then relax in the gardens or play table tennis in the green house. They have outdoor giant Jenga and a slackline to boot. We often go and play a board game in the gardens. Love it.
