"We had lunch at Wanderlust because it was close to where we were and we had seen that it had four stars on HappyCow, but we were disapponted and should have read the more recent reviews first. There is not a large choice of vegan food anymore and all of the vegan lunch dishes are based on mock chicken, so we had the vegan breakfast for lunch (we don‘t enjoy mock chicken). This would have been ok because a traditional Scottish breakfast can be very filling, however, the food was mediocre or even worse. It arrived after a few minutes and was clearly just warmed up. It all lacked taste and seasoning and we did not finish our meals although we still felt hungry. My husband had the lemonade which was ok. I had the peach iced tea which had almost no flavour and tasted like infused water. Moreover, the staff were not that welcoming. This place looks so cute from the outside but with so many restaurants to choose from in Edinburgh, we would not go here again. Visited in October 2023 Updated from previous review on 2023 10 19"

They didn't have a separate vegan menu (anymore), but almost everything on the menu has a vegan option.

We got the vegan chicken New York and Caesar wraps with chips. Both were really tasty and the service was quick!

We went here for breakfast and the full vegan breakfast was a good portion size for 13£. Student discount of 10% is a nice feature!

The restaurant no longer offers a separate menu for vegans, and the Biscoff Latte is no longer available. However, there are still many vegan choices and the Vegan Full Breakfast is exceptional.

The vegan breakfast was large and tasty, and very satisfying. We split it and the porridge between two people. The porridge was comforting and served at the perfect temperature. The drinks were also excellent, especially the freshly squeezed juice.

I was disappointed to find that the restaurant no longer offers a vegan menu, but the breakfast options were delicious. I ordered the vegan breakfast and my sister had the vegetarian option with egg, both of which we enjoyed. This review was updated on 2024-05-19.

I stopped at this café mostly because I was intrigued by the vegan crepes mentioned in the description here, but there were no such crepes available. The server said that the batter had dairy in it and there were no vegan options for it. I checked their social media later, and it seems like they changed their menu in June of 2023, so I figured that's probably the source of the disconnect. I ordered the vegan breakfast plate. It was mediocre at best. The hash brown was fine. The vegan meats were not very good; they had a bit of an aftertaste. I didn't bother finishing them, which is rare for me even when I don't like something. The meal was fine. If I had stopped by this place at random or wi...

We visited here back in 2023 and had the unique vegan crepes. What can I say about them! They were absolutely incredible. So much so that I was thinking about them for a full year and waited for another opportunity to visit Edinburgh and visit the cafe. Came back this time only to be told that they no longer do a vegan menu but they have a few options on the meat/dairy menu. I was really upset by this but decided to try the full vegan. Imagine my chagrin when i was given one link sausage, about 4 beans, half an avocado and not enough spread for my tiny bits of toast. I had to give my husband my apple juice which was all pulp. To cap it off, the bill came to £39. I’ll pay whatever but it has...

"new kapitel has caught my attention after I was on top ten on trip advisor only months after the opening in the oktober last year. that and the fact that it is open for my early january birthday, made it the perfect place to celebrate to become a little older. I was with the man and his family. the man is quite used to my taste and good to the kind of kitchen that would appeal to me for a special occasion; his family not so much and I was filled with shame as his mother scornful went through the menu trying to find something she would enjoy. I've eaten with the family of the man, and I know they enjoy eating, so I think it's a failure of the menu that it is not accessible. the benming always blooming and garnish can appeal to some, but for others it is overcomplicated and it is necessary to find a balance between the two. we start with the starters and I go for venison sour wort pithvier. the venison was underheated and incredibly dry, to the happiness the sourded a little moisturizing and so saved the whole dish, but the aromen were quite not clear, except the garnitur of plastered mushrooms I thoroughly enjoyed. for the largest part we chose a fish dish for our main,- sea trout, smoked muddles, petersilien and coast herbs. where the starter fell, the main recording is getting back. the dish is rich and creamy, and each element adds the complexity of the taste as a whole, without disturbing. the concept is now an old one, and it would be deceptive if it had not worked, as it would essentially pay with this place. I enjoyed my meal in new chapter, although I do not agree with it is stellar status under the hierarchy of edinburgh eateries. it is top ten position is just a flash in the pan of hot popularity, and in time it will be plated in the upper half of the middle stage where it belongs. and that is where it belongs, the dishes can be plated with a michelin star in understood, and the venue and the supporting media has the clean lines and empty slate look of fine but eat the team has a long gone to go if that is their real aim. at the end, although it was a beautiful meal, and cheap (at the moment I would not be surprised to see their prices slowly rise) and the man’s mother found something they enjoyed and that is the most important."
