Temperance - Halifax

Friendly service, great environment and lots of bang for her buck

Lovely food, mostly vegan but with the option of dairy milk/cheese. So nice to have something healthier to choose from. Great salads and sourdough flatbreads. The best hummus I have ever been eaten in my life!

The menu is very much improved since my last visit. The whole menu is vegan or can be vegan. We had the full v.breakfast which is served all day and very good. Nice 'outdoor ' seating area in the covered arcade and an upstairs lounge area which we didnt check out. Highly recommend this place. Updated from previous review on 2021-08-19

Such a friendly place with great food and the best vegan hot chocolate I’ve ever had!

As far as COVID restrictions go, this place seems to be doing it all right. When I went in it was clear that they were having a busy day. The staff were very friendly and made it clear there would be a little wait on some food, and informed me what food was sold out This I found very polite and helpful. The choice of teas and coffees really blew me away (I wish I took a picture of the massive choice available). I got a reliable oat milk cappuccino, which was really nice, but nothing to write home about. For food I ordered the BBQ Flatbread. The wait wasn't too extensive compared to the warning I was given, and when the food did arrive I was very pleased with what I ordered. It was a lovely take on a BBQ dish (which I also wish I snapped a picture of). What pleased me most was the price of things: nothing appeared to be overpriced, and my meal coffee were definitely good value. I wouldn't want to of paid any more or less for it. I had stumbled across this business while looking for another vegan businesses called Ve.GANG Only to find this no longer existed, but that it had combined with Temperance (according to a glance at their social media). While eating, I did overhear that there was very little vegan choice when it came to cakes (one if I remember correctly). I personally feel this, while there's not only one vegan choice, is also reflected in the hot food menu. I feel like this place needs a massive push in the vegan direction.
