I've never been to an all vegan cafe before so why not give it a try. .. nagev surprised me ...I had their breakfast burger and it was delicious .... I mean I missed my eggs but I wouldn't fault their food... If you're vegan or would like to try vegan food- this is the place for you .... Lots of gluten free options too
All food & drinks have always been really good & fresh at Nagev the Plant based cafe. Friendly staff. I guess people (and the cafe/restaurant) want to hear also what could be improved upon. So that being said the omnivore liked the PB brekky burger, he said he would’ve liked some tomato or some sort of acidity with his as the ‘Nagev’ sauce wasn’t quite enough, I shared my tomato & he said it then balanced it a lot better & cut through the creaminess which overtook the limited bacon he was given.
I did pay extra $3.50 for mushrooms- and although they were cooked perfectly, I did feel it still was not real value for money for how much I got. Same goes for the very limited house baked feta.. it was more like a garnish amount.
It does have to be said that the toilet needs attention (I understand it’s an old building) but what I mean is having extra soap - they had run out - albeit a tad mixed with water. And although I appreciate the no paper towels, there was only a tea towel hanging on back of door to dry hands on, it would be great to have an all natural antibacterial gel to use as well.
The seats are not the most comfy (no backs and hard) the tables aren’t friendly to my MS affected legs as the table legs are in the way unless you lift & put them over the ledge. More able-bodied people wouldn’t think too much about this, but I do. Wheelchair access would be fairly difficult particularly independently, as there is steps into the cafe, fortunately I didn’t need it - and we got a rock star carpark out the front! Still, wouldn’t stop us/ me from going again (4th time there so far) Just something to think about. Coffee drinkers said it was very good coffee. The sweet potato fries (and regular fries) are really good - you can taste that they don’t use old oil & that they use good quality salt, lightly sprinkled on top (I usually hate people adding salt for me) Cost of 3 brunch meals (1 with ‘extra’ mushrooms), 3 drinks & a side of sweet potato fries was $75+ dollars.
It’s really great to see take home meals available, I would’ve liked to have the option of the current green curry & rice on the menu so I could’ve tried before I bought, however we did take home some pastries🥧🍴🌱
It’s as simple as: there is no where this GOOD in Adelaide. Nagev takes the title for sure. Every time I have eaten there I have been blown away. The money you pay is for the excellent quality of the food, so trust me- it’s worth it.
Have been before but took my non-vegan son and my vegetarian daughter for lunch. Verdict- excellent! My daughter had the Nagev burger with the sweet potato fries-she enjoyed this thoroughly. My son said he "wouldn't have known it was vegan except that it had no meat in it"-not a boy genius! He usually baulks at the idea of vegan food but reported that it was "really good" and was impressed by the fact that he felt full after (he has previously stated that he only feels full if he eats meat). Drinks were also of an excellent standard AND they don't use disposable straws! I might have some vegan converts on my hands soon!
I loved this place! It's trendy, cute, clean, the waitress was really nice, the treats in the cabinet looked amazing, from the moment I walked in I loved it. It's so nice to order anything off a menu and just know it's all vegan. The peace of mind I have eating somewhere 100% vegan is so much better than eating anywhere else. We had the French toast which would have been beautiful except it was a bit burnt which is the reason for not giving a 5, and the burger which was divine. We also had a peanut butter crunch smoothie which was perfect and a matcha chai. I'm one of those heathen sugary chai powder lovers so the chai wasn't my fave but still ok. The salted caramel peanut butter butterbing was the best thing I've ever had in my mouth!
So excited that Adelaide has a fully vegan cafe with a decent menu and options and it's also quite local to me! I have only visited once and will definitely visit again to try another menu option as our visit was for my boyfriend to attempt the pancake challenge they were hosting and I ordered their normal pancakes. They were honestly so, so good!! I loved them. Their hot chocolates are also incredible (it came as apart of the pancake challenge)
Great service too!
I will return!
I love eating here. Well-priced, creative and healthy food. Great breakfast or brunch joint, and they make all their own cakes, donuts and things in-store. I love their pies.
Nagev offered a wide range of plant-based breakfasts, all of which looked incredible. The 'meat' and 'egg' were extremely convincing both in looks and taste. The restaurant had a bright and welcoming feel and the staff were very friendly and personable. I will definitely be back and can't wait to try more brunch dishes!
Absolutely amazing!!!! Best food, amazing staff and the cakes are just incredible. The girls are so talented. Easily my most favorite place on earth right now.
Went to the Nagev dessert night a couple of weekends ago. OH MY LORDY! The bomba was immense. Firstly lit up, then to maintain its coldness. The chunks of lemon gelato and raspberry were the best. thing. ever. Followed by the best espresso martini I've ever had. A great night out in the suburbs with amazing people. Eager for the next one. Thanks guys!
I go off friend recommendations all the time, so when my close Vegan friend raved about this joint I had absolutely no hesitations in trying it! On busy Payneham road you can easily miss this practically hole in the wall vegan institution. However when we entered we were greeted with the biggest smiles and warmest welcomes. Although their menu is not extensive it still offers a good variety of options. All day breakfast options sound amazing and I opted for the seasonal vegetables with a baked bean side complete with field mushrooms! I ordered a lychee berry smoothie to wash it down with. I left with a content heart and stomach and cannot wait to return to try the other fare.
P.S. I left with a Raw bounty Alice that didn't even make the journey on the walk back to the car!
Simply delicious!
Nice little place with great menu. I always end up grabbing some cake and pies for lunch afterwards. Best vegan big breakfast around. If I had one criticism, the scrambled tofu could be better. Can be a bit dry sometimes. But that bacon! My gosh its sooo good.
Matcha chai latte was amazing, I had mine with soy which was well cooked. To eat I had the big breakfast- unfortunately they were out of bacon but they subbed it with avo for me, the tomatoes were really good, nicely caramelised- tofu was a bit underwhelming but good once I added salt. The owners received the feedback well and thanked us for letting them know. Desserts look delicious. Give them a go.
My wife, who is vegan, loves this place and she took me for a special dinner in Valentine's Day. The food was delicious. I was so satisfied with the meal that we will go back on the weekends for lunch or dinner. Highly recommended. They have indoors or outdoors tables. Parking at the back.
Went here for the first time today and was so amazed with all the options! I had a beautiful chai latte and the Latin arepa, my partner had the avo bruschetta. Both absolutely delicious meals on top of very friendly service. Will definitely be coming back! Thank you!
Fully vegan menu. Really nice meals with fast service.
Presented really well. Attention to detail and cheery service.
First time here today. This place is amazing. Food 11/10. The coffee was the best I have ever had partially because I had never stepped out and tried a non-basic latte. Huge range of options; almost too many!
It's impossible not to love coming here. The owners and staff are so incredibly friendly. I've been coming to Nagev for a number of years, however with the transition of new owners a few years back. The place has just gone from stre gth to strength.
The food is always amazing and so filling. The coffee is spot on everytime.
There are so many amazing plant based options it makes it so hard at times.
It’s always those little details that keep me coming back to Nagev: from the perfect taste of every dish to the personalised details for their customers. Thank you million times Bea, Jorge and your staff for every dining experience. You are superstars 🌟
Best Vegan in Adelaide. Every item on the menu is delicious but nothing can beat the big breakfast here!
The desserts and cakes are also delicious. The blueberry cheesecake is definitely my favourite. I love trying all their new creations when they come out.
They even make cakes for special occasions which is a bonus!
Service is always top notch, friendly team and great atmosphere.
This place has been on my list for a while. Great food, and really inspiring. The popcorn cauli is incredible. There is a large car park out the back, and a cute lil courtyard patio for the sunny morning. Don’t forget the VIP room if you’re looking for something a bit more intimate. It took my a while to work out Nagev is Vegan backwards, hahaha.
