1. Cascara
Cascara’s plant-based baked goods and desserts are so good, they even made our list of the the 10 best cake shops in Bath and our favourite cafes in the city, too!
Head here in the morning for pistachio or almond croissants, a vegan take on cinnamon buns, and delicious cardamom knots to start the day off right.

Sweet Little Things is not just a pretty face! Behind the pink facade the bakery and tea shop also have lots to offer vegan customers, too.
Stock up on vegan cupcakes and definitely get the plant-based chocolate fudge cake for an indulgent treat.
We love afternoon tea here and the good news is that there is a vegan version available! Tuck into savoury sandwiches like avocado, chili jam & tomato; vegan cheese with sunblush tomatoes & basil; or hummus and roasted peppers. Save space for scones with jam and (vegan) cream!
