One of the things I have missed the most since going vegan is an almond croissant so you can imagine the joy and excitement when I got to have a vegan one here and it was wonderful 🥺🩵
Not to mention, coffees are lovely and so is their matcha (something I’ve struggled to find in town!!) so that’s an added delight!!
As I said, I’d never skip Green Routes when in Oxford- it’s a must visit spot for vegans but also for everyone else. Good food is good food, full stop!! I’ve never had anyone complain after bringing them here 😉
