Eat Me Cafe — Restaurant in England

Eat Everything Vegan

If you want a window seat book in advance. Lots of space and not over crowded like some places in Scarborough. A super menu with lots of vegan options to choose from too.

Roti Cania £6. Having eaten this in India and Bangladesh as a staple breakfast for months on end, I’d say it tasted as good, which is amazing because it usually has egg, butter and condensed milk in it. This vegan version was flaky on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside with a buttery taste. The sauce was really good but a thick curry dal would have been better as it sticks better than a runny sauce. With two rotis, it was as great sharing plate.

EMC Baked Vegan Mac’N’Cheese £12.50 Honestly, we thought they screwed up and given us real cheese. It looked too cheesy, crispy too but melted perfectly with oil exuding from it and stringy with a cheesy aroma. It was the best vegan mac’n’cheese we’ve had. They use a mixture of vegan cheeses with a runny one inside mixed with engevita, then scheese on top. Faultless.

Spicy Asian Vegan Donburi Rice Bowl £13. A large bowl. Really nice and I like spice but it overpowered me and my partner who likes a Phall! It wasn’t a hidden depth of spice in the mouth which is tolerable, but a nasty sting to the tip of the tongue with dissipated after 10 mins. I think it was from the hot Paprika powder scattered all over it. It tasted good but too harsh.

Would I recommend. Certainly. Scarborough hasn’t enough places with good vegan options and ‘Eat Me’ would fit into any city.

Would I go back. Yes, we’re going to go back...

Hit and miss. Sometimes food is lovely, sometimes not so. I think I've just been unlucky with the misses, like getting my order wrong a couple of times, and not very nice tasting food (I'm not being picky, others on table who tried my food agreed), however when it's a hit it's really nice. It's a shame the ambience of the place let's it down, no atmosphere since it moved premises, you're lucky if you get a seat im the nain window which can help a little bit. It's best to book as I've been turned away a few times, especially at busy times like a Saturday lunch time, there is however what appears to be lots of space for more tables as it's quite spaced out and looks quite bare. Of a dinner time, there tends to be hardly anything left on the specials board, but there's lots of good options on the main menu. Some of the items on the specials board are on it most of the time and quickly sell out, these would be a great addition to...

I so wish I had discovered this absolute gem earlier in my trip. Everything about it is lovely. The setting, with the huge art-deco windows, is perfect for a start. The menu is adventurous, adding twists to standards. My full English, for example, came stacked in a toasted ciabatta and was lovely. ( £9). But I could easily have opted for the Middle Eastern tomato and egg Shakshuka (£10), a croque madame (baked ham and cheese with bechamel sauce with an egg on top) or a rarebit 'pimped up with crispy bacon'. (£10.50). A pot of real Yorkshire tea (£2.40) washed it nicely down. Much else to eat too, including an impressive specials board. Something for everyone, for sure, reflected by the client base. Families, young folk, older couples and workmen at the end of their night shift. It's all very informal and undoubtedly my favourite...
