Tried the ready to eat salami and the chicken joints. The salami was lovely, oily and chewy. The chicken however was very disappointing I'm afraid to say. A large lump of (what I presume to be) jackfruit with little to no seasoning.Staff were lovely and knowledgeable about the items they sold, just don't let this be your first or sole adventure into the world of vegan food.

Popped in for something to set me up for the day after not having time for breakfast at home. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. I chose a bacon, brie and cranberry bagel with a oat milk latte and wafer bar, which all came as a meal deal for £7. The bagel was filled to the brim and super tasty! You wouldn't guess it was vegan. The latte was very nice, I'm saving the wafer bar for later because I'm very full. Good start to the day, highly recommend.

£6 for sandwiches that don't contain the fake meat they sell is a bit of a joke, the spicy mango option is basically a pea sized amount of store bought chutney between sub par bread.The cheese and meats tasted bland, doesn't seem like they are spiced or flavoured so fairly disappointing. The best part was the dessert but honestly you're probably better of going across the street where they serve better vegan options for that too.

It’s a bit out of the way if you’re based anywhere in Nottingham that isn’t Sherwood, but luckily Mansfield road is accessible and there’s free parking around the corner if you’re literally just visiting Faux. We came for an Honestly Tasty blue cheese that I’d hoped to use for canapés at a party that weekend and unfortunately they were out of stock, but I’ve been before and their stock is usually much more abundant NOT at closing time on a Friday afternoon. My fault really! Their product range is great and I hope to see them do well in the future - it’s enough to make any vegan want to live in Sherwood!

Doesn't live up to Insta-hype. Overpriced and stale sandwiches. Downhill.I used to go here all the time under the former, original management when the fresh counter had so much more, friendly interactions and fresh meatballs/mince.This week, I went in for a last-minute sandwich as they always look so good on their IG, but felt utterly cheated in paying £6 for a very dry, hardly-filled salami and pesto sandwich. You're better off getting a meal deal from Co-op for what I got...Seitan and bread were dry, paired with a leaf and a smidge of pesto. Gutted.Based on their lunch offering (£8!), Faux can't hope to be a viable repeat plant-based go-to...which is a shame as it was always so busy a year ago and tied in so nicely to the scene of Independents in Sherwood.I like to support local, but Faux is trading on that goodwill a little too much based on my experience forgetting that supermarkets are now in this game with better convenience products.Faux is way over-priced and just not fresh or substantial.Faux is best as a re-seller of other national plant-based brands, so if you want your fancy cheezes, go here, but if you want feeding, get a better lunch elsewhere.

What a find. Super staff, really helpful and friendly, who clearly care about the product. Lovely selection, inventive, well labelled for allergens, and staff also helped advise on cooking.I wasn't expecting the cakes and goodies as well, and this was a complete bonus, as were the deli sandwiches.What a great feeling in a business! Great product, great staff, great attitude and even the packaging is gorgeous!

I used to like this place until I started ordering the magic bags they offer through too good to go.In the past month I have ordered 4 bags and 3 of those have been cancelled by store with less than 20 minutes notice. I live 25 mins away roughly so all three times I've made the journey over only to find out that they have cancelled them minutes before the agreed collectionWhy offer them every day if the majority just get cancelled at the last minute?They must just like wasting peoples time and fuel as unless they are completely oblivious they will be able to take a reasonable guess a few hours before the slots as to if they're going to have enough left.

I have been to Faux today as I wanted to try this newish place. First the good stuff: I went there with my son as he is vegan and wanted to treat him and catch up, we had a coffee and a bagel sandwich each., the coffee was really nice around 12oz and the bagel too, my son also liked it...so that is a massive plus for the vegans and veganism. The member of staff there also extremely pleasant and conversational as well as helpful to choosing the food another big plus..... Now the downsides: It is not a café so one as only 2 allowed in the store at the time and no seating due to licensing, we had to sit outside on a miserable day that is a minus.And the prohibitive prices I paid over £17 for what is to be a takeaway (2x sandwich + 2 x coffees) way more that it would have been at a branded place like Costa, i feel i could have had a meal out and be around the same, and being located in Sherwood not town centre it certainly does not justify the rip off pricing...which i am sure put of a lot of Vegans that would possibly use the store if the prices were more accessible, a great minus as although I enjoyed it I would not go there so soon …also limited sandwich choices …I hope this is taken as constructive criticism and maybe they will review pricing to a more realistic and competitive pricing that allows more vegans to access as not all vegans are well off.
