"I LOVE this place and can see it going fully vegan soon. The staff are so lovely. I had to ask to meet the chef as I was so impressed with the food, he has a lot of passion for vegan food. He said he didn't want to make some rubbish token meals for vegans, well he certainly hasn't. What a great attitude. It puts lots of vegan places to shame presentation and flavour wise. It's so wonderful to see somewhere smashing stereotypes with awesome tasting food. I commend their passion and having a mostly vegan menu. It's a shame it's been given one bad review and didn't even eat there? Sick of vegans trashing places then complain they have no options locally. It does a real disservice to the cause and eating experience for others. Every single time I've been the food has been supremely delicious. So I just can't fathom it being bad. I'm very fussy and used to review vegan restaurants for a massive vegan group. And I can't get enough of this place. I have taken some non vegan family members to try and they loved it too. Highly recommend it and take your friends, yum. I wish I could award this place 5 stars Updated from previous review on 2019-03-09"

We tried the Sunday roast and it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend stopping by for their roast. The regular menu also looks fantastic, we will definitely be returning to try more dishes.

She only had 50 percent gluten-free options available. The only gluten-free option was pommes (fries). The fries were basic, the sauces were average, and all of my friends who ordered burgers said they were bland.

Such amazing vegan burgers at this place. Cauliflower is also to die for. Not so impressed with the mac and cheese but this place is a gem. Lovely staff and outdoor seating. Pub quizzes and bottomless brunches yayy!

Would definitely visit here again. We tried the beefless burger, MD burger and cauliflower wings. The cauli wings were epic, definitely order those! Burgers were also quite good. The only gripe I had was the staff didn't know which IPA were vegan and the boards don't list this either. They had an Oatmeal IPA so I took my chance with that. View menu

There are always great vegan options at this restaurant, but the service can be slow. Unfortunately, the apple crumble pudding was inedible and seemed to have been microwaved. The young vegan pies were sold out, so we tried the vegan wellington instead. It was okay, but it mostly tasted like swede wrapped in pastry. The best part of the meal was the roasted vegetables and trimmings.

I came here after a recommendation and was not disappointed. Large selection of vegan dishes, great atmosphere and friendly staff. I ordered bottomless drinks endless refills of coffee or tea from 9 am till 6 pm. Again not disappointed, as the staff comes over every hour to see if I need a refill. For lunch I ordered the chikenish burger and enjoyed it. It was just the right size for me, and filled with flavor. Highly recommend.

can only give 4 stars because the birds are not completely vegetarian. but the menu is 50% vegan with some delicious options! we visited during the veganuary, as vegans eat 50% from Mon-Wed. two burgers and one side of mac and cheese for a total of £10! the whole food was great, but above all the md burger a fried chicken style sincean burger with mac and cheese stole. one of the best burgers I had in london! the pub also has a cool atmosphere and a good selection of beer and apple wines.

A friend recommended this restaurant to us, and it did not disappoint. The space is spacious with a relaxed atmosphere, including an outdoor beer garden in the back. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We tried two of the burgers, which were both delicious and generously sized with great texture. The menu offers a variety of options including 5 burgers (one of them is vegetarian) and 5 brunch items, making it a great choice for a diverse group of diners. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this restaurant to others.

Went specifically for the vegan roast (with a group of omnis) Was told the vegan option was meatloaf (on further enquiry I was told it was faux-meat, which was fine with me) What came out were 2 rather overcooked ‘Beyond’ type burger patties, barely roasted potatoes, cabbage, parsnips some tinned/frozen baby carrots a side of gravy which barely had a taste to it. I’d chosen to go there specifically to avoid having to get yet another burger ended up with burger patties! Same price as the chicken roast which also had pigs in blankets, Yorkshire puds cauliflower cheese. Was very disappointed felt ripped off. I really liked the vibe of the place would be willing to give their other items a try b...
