I’ve been wanting to visit ‘Palm Vaults’ for ages and I was in no way disappointed when I went for a late lunch yesterday! There was a 20 minute wait for a table which was expected given the social media buzz this place has acquired. Whilst queuing the staff brought us iced mint water and cake samples and kept us updated on how long the wait would be. Once in I had the ‘Unleash the Dragon’ smoothie, the smashed avocado on toast and finished up with a generous slice of the Palm cake - all of which were divine and served promptly with a smile. The gorgeous decor and abundance of greenery makes for a welcoming, bright setting which is reflected in the attentive, conversational staff.

Very pink and filled with plants. The decoration is fantastic, even the drinks and cakes are decorated. Food was very very good, so were the shakes we had. The girls working there are the sweetest. Very girly place, full all the time.

Classic hipster hangout which I enjoyed. Great to see an independent cafe with so much character thriving! Portions were just a little small for the price and the focus of this cafe is veganism and image as opposed to health foods (cakes use refined sugar). So I wouldn’t be back here super fast. But still a lovely spot if you want some pretty looking vegan cakes, drinks and food.

Very aesthetic little cafe with clothing merchandise available, too. Had a nice iced latte and bought some madeleines and a stuffed Pretzel and salted caramel cookie to go. Both not only look picture perfect but actually taste delicious too. Would suggest splitting a cookie with a friend as they're rather big. Staff, especially Hannah, were very nice.

Such a cute place! Filled with flowers and so much pink, even the tissue paper in the toilet was pink. Me and my friends all ordered avocado on sourdough bread with various extra toppings and we were all satisfied with our food. We also tried the cakes (pineapple cake and rose cake) which were lovely, soft and not too sweet, and the rose one wasn't too overpowering. I was a bit sad that they didn't have any matcha cake that day but guess its another reason to go back.

Chic and nicely decorated cafe, with lots of plants. What’s good about it is their range of specialty lattes which is interesting and pretty because of their colours. I liked my dirty chai and the rose latte was good as well. Staff were also friendly and hospitable. Will stop by if I’m in the area.

This place is absolutely beautiful and aesthetically pleasing. I had such a great time there with my friends a few weeks ago. The staff are super friendly and nice. And the cakes, teas and coffees are divine!! This is a lovely place to go to chill and hang out with friends sipping some healthy drinks and indulging yourself with their delicious cakes! Thank you so much. (I felt so bad that I couldn't finish my piece of cake. Next time, I will haha.) I'm definitely going to visit again!!
