Great place! Delicious food (I had the Chai French Toast). Loved knowing food was safe for my allergy due to it being a plant based cafe. Will be going again!
Called in for a oat milk latter and was pleasantly surprised beautiful decor friendly staff and the coffee was delicious Wish I could have had some of the sweet treats because they looked amazing If your vegan this place is one of the best to go for a coffee in Wakefield
Visited in May 2023. Not sure I would call this place ‘family-friendly’, but would be a good meeting place for friends although it is a small cafe. Staff not very attentive initially, had to ask for menus. Unfortunately had also ran out of Biscoff for pancakes/drinks which was a shame. Having said that, the drinks/food we had were actually really well-made, tasty and were served quickly. Good display of vegan bakes to take out also. Would come again with vegan friends for coffee/brunch.
I discussed this at length with my partner, and finally realised that Throwback is the best all-round coffee shop in the Leeds/Wakefield area. Pretty much every other place you can say “oh, this place has the best coffee”, “this place has a lovely atmosphere and great service” or “this place has fantastic food”… But for me, there isn’t anywhere else that would come top of my list no matter which of these things I was looking for on a particular day. The coffee is impeccable; it’s one of the few places that will make me a cappuccino the way/size I like it. The food is interesting and tasty and all vegan so I don’t have to worry about being an afterthought. It’s worth mentioning that I have basically toured Yorkshire looking for the best vegan pancakes and their pancakes are currently top of my list. The cakes are delicious and there are so so many options - I particularly love that they offer vegan pastries, pretty much nowhere else nearby has even close to their range of choices. The service is always lovely and friendly, one staff member even went so far as to bring me a cutting of a plant I really liked from home. I can bring friends or family in here for a catch-up just as easily as I can sit all day doing work, and never feel like I have overstayed my welcome. They welcome dogs and even keep dog treats in house! They also have a small free library of books to read or take away with you. Honestly this place is a rare gem… if you get chance please please come and show them some love, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for being wonderful Throwback xx
Just found this Wonderful Vegan Café and have instantly fallen in love with the place. The menu is 100% Vegan unless you want cow's milk in your coffee. The staff are very welcoming and the prices are very reasonable. All in all Nirvana. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 Borderline Eleven. Paul (Pòl) Ruddock Photography 2022.
Amazing coffee in Wakefield, so pleased to find a good coffee shop. Visited here today for a takeaway coffee, staff are so friendly, enough room for a pram and perfectly made coffee. Will definitely be back again!
Throwback mix some of the best coffee in Wakefield with the most positive vibes possible. With a unique musical backing track and some of the friendliest staff around, Throwback is a always on point. Serving and all vegan menu and multiple choices of milk, give it a try, you never know what you're missing.
Im not vegan but I really enjoyed the food. The staff were very friendly and the dishes were great tasting and well presented. Would return happily! Great coffees too!
