The Greedy Cow is a what I would call a trendy type venue. No bad thing. There were no tables outside as it was a sunny day. One of the staff politely said there were plenty of tables upstairs. The stairs are steep so bear this in mind if you or any of your party have any mobility concerns. Our order way taken swiftly. My partner ordered the toasted cheese sandwich minus the gherkins but asked for bacon instead (£1 more). I ordered the 'plant burger' (which doesn't come with fries btw). At £8.50 each for both dishes we had high hopes. After a 20 minute wait, the food arrived. Oh dear. The toasted cheese sandwich was just that just like you would make at home. No garnish or anything else. My partner was very disappointed at the portion size given the hefty price tag. The burger was more of success however, but again at £8.50 on its own still also had a hefty price tag. With two cans of lemon San Pellegrino the bill was £23 (plus a tip on top).

The side salad we had was interesting and tasty - figs, apples, beetroot. Really good, but weirdly no dressing. And because we sat outside in the communal area everything came in climate changey paper boxes, which was a downer. Still, pretty good, and much better than the Restaurants and the End of the Universe that...
Read moreVisited on a Sunday afternoon during a really sunny weekend. Really wanted to like it but it was a bit disappointing in the end. Peaceful ambience (we sat upstairs by the window) and friendly enough service. We had milkshakes and falafel burgers. The milkshakes were delicious but the falafel burgers were really hard to eat, soggy and fell apart. The onion relish was overpowering and too wet for the burger. Our son had a toasted cheese sandwich which was tasty. Had to join a queue outside to pay the bill (actually not sure if we had to but would have been waiting a long time to get the bill otherwise) It all just seemed a lot of money for average...
