About The Garden Cafe & Take Away
The Garden Cafe & Take Away is a vegan restaurant on Stramongate in Kendal, where the whole menu is plant-based. Breakfast centres on a full English built around tofu scramble. A mung bean flour omelette comes with fries, and a vegan "egg" and mayo sandwich is made from tofu. Gluten-free options are available for both the omelette and the egg sandwich, which suits anyone avoiding gluten. Pancakes and cakes, including coffee and walnut and Victoria sponge, cover the sweeter side. Dogs are welcome.
