Delicious stuff made with love by Tom. Vegetarian with vegan options. Open for lunch Wednesday to Saturday, although not always. Not really salads, much more than that. Mexican on Wednesday, falafel and halloumi on Thursday, curry on Friday. And, I think, falafel and halloumi again on Saturday. The best place to eat in Hay, bar none. Takeaway, or you can eat on one of the casual benches downstairs if there is space. You can also eat in the delightful tea room upstairs run by Tom’s wife, which has a wide selection of unusual high quality teas, served with style. It is just Tom serving the food, so you might have to queue at busy times. It is well worth it.
I can't get enough of this place! The Salad Project (downstairs) and Leaf (tearoom upstairs) together are truly the best hidden gems! The owners are the friendliest people and the food is served fresh and is absolutely delicious. Tom serves up the food downstairs and clearly loves what he does and puts all that love into his food. Upstairs, Lucy runs the tearoom which specialises in Gongfu cha style tea. She is a world of knowledge yet is very humble and welcoming. I've been to London Gongfu cha tea houses and Leaf surpasses them all! I go as often as I can. If there is a line outside, it is worth the wait!
My boyfriend and I were looking for some quick and tasty food whilst shopping in Hay on Wye and we came across the salad project, the halloumi and falafel wraps were amazing and my boyfriend is against salad and he loved it. We loved it so much we came back a couple of days later. You have to try the tea if you go- they have a variety of speciality teas! Recommend the white tea! Lovely, thanks again!
This quirky little place serves one Vegan or Vegetarian dish per day. It's very popular so there's always a line stretching down the road. But wow, it's so worth the wait. Absolutely delicious, freshly made and served by people who obviously care about what they serve. Fantastic, highly recommended.

Absolutely wonderful experience Food was absolutely gorgeous, fresh, affordable and made with love. But the absolute highlight was the time and care Lucy gave in serving us her wonderful loose leaf tea upstairs. Highly recommend. Thank you Lucy x
Absolutely delicious lunch every mouthful was a flavour sensation! Love that there’s just 1 dish a day, and you could tell so much care and attention went in to the preparation and presentation.
So delicious we visited twice fabulous fresh local food expertly cooked in a gorgeous environment can’t fault it! We sampled a Mexican lunch and falafel takeaway on market day both sublime!

Best curry I've had in years it sounds like they do a different meal each week and upstairs discover the wonders of tea hugely knowledgeable and fun.
