While walking back with a friend from Salford to Victoria Station, she mentioned to me about this really cool juice parlour she wanted to visit and was on the way. After asking a bit more about the place I realised I knew the place the parlour was located in, but had never seen it or been there. But she was all praises for it 🙂 .
After a bit of help from our GPS friend we ended up in the juice bar. It was called Cafe de Conscience. It offered snacks and juices. Much to my surprise, the parlour was set in a makeshift van. The menu card displayed juices which were all healthy. From vegetable juice comprising of spinach, cucumber and ginger to banana juice and beetroot juices; all were on the menu card.
Here, let me give you a word of advise. If you like sweetened juices or are not health concious at all, then this place is not for you. Alternately, if you do love trying all sorts of foods and beverages, then I would recommend you to have a go at this place too.
As we waited for my friend’s order to come, I really got interested in these freshly prepared juices. Furthermore, the walk had made me thirsty 😛 , so I placed an order of my own.
Our order came within minutes of placing them and were freshly prepared in front of us. They were then sealed in cute bottles and handed over to us. The rates are really reasonable. Moreover, you get a loyalty card/ membership card/ disocunt card whatever you would like to call them ; where, if you purchase six juices you get the seventh one free.
I would be honest, I was a little apprehensive about the taste since it contained no added sugar. Whatever sweetness was in them was because of the ingredients used in it. But, my Beetroot juice tasted amazing especially with the fresh ginger punch.
I would say this place is great and you should come over at least once, even if it is just to experiment with the juice; and who knows you might genuinely like it.
Here, I would say what my friend had said ” It may not be very tasty but it is very healthy”.
Cheers to our good health 🙂 .
P.S Please do not ask me why the bottle says Cowherds cause I really do not know. Thanks 😛

I love healthy juices and smoothies – I make one a day. I’ve tried to make a beetroot one before but haven’t got the recipe right yet! I might try it with some ginger like the one you tried, it sounds delicious.

It is Cowherds Cafe from the Social Media tags on the van. Very interesting concept. I do occasionally like some juice. Some are so high in natural sugar, I really try to take it easy with them. Looks like you had a good time.

That looks pretty healthy and tasty! Sadly I think that there is nothing like that here, at least as far as I know. The bottles seem to be quite unique and beautiful, I want to try some of it after reading your post!
I liked the fact that they have their social media links on the van.
