Caffe Nero have been fairly good for vegans for a few years now, but they have upped their game for Veganuary 2020, boasting 9 savoury lunch options and 3 sweet cake / pastry options.
These are the savoury options we spotted in the Ipswich branch:
MUSHROOM, TOMATO & POTATO ROSTI CIABATTA
SWEETCORN FRITTER WITH CHUTNEY & COLESLAW FLATBREAD
SUNDRIED TOMATO & PESTO TOASTIE
TOMATO AND BASIL SOUP
SUPERGREEN SOUP
VEGAN -MEATBALL- PANINI

Brief feedback:
We ordered a tomato soup and the meatball panini.
We enjoyed the tomato soup, which was flavoursome and felt wholesome with a bread roll.
The "meatball" panini was a little lacking. It was basically a bit of cheese flavour, with some kind of savoury balls inside. They didn't taste like meatballs (or even like a half-decent vegan version!) They were made of mushrooms and tasted like mush.
These are the sweet options
SALTED CARAMEL AND CHOCOLATE VEGAN CHEESECAKE
GINGER SPICED VEGAN LOAF CAKE
RASPBERRY CROISSANT
Brief feedback:
I ordered the cheesecake, which did look impressive, but was somewhat bland and lacking in va-va-voom.
(I've eaten far better in dedicated vegan establishments, and made far better myself! See Apple crumble cheesecake and Coffee cheesecake for recipes!)
Drinks
Non dairy-milks for tea / coffee / hot chocolate are soya, oat and coconut.
