The Best Places to eat Vegan Food in London

Apparently, one the most commonly asked question about Vegan Food is: ‘Are Chewits Vegan?’ So we thought we’d start this guide by answering it…

So, very sadly, Chewits are not suitable for vegans as they contain egg white powder, according to metro. Sorry Ve-guys… They are however suitable for Vegetarians (apart from the Halloween Vampire Fangs). Enough about Chewits.

In this guide, we list for you the best places where you can find all sorts of delicious Vegan foods. We’ll include where to find a Vegan breakfast, dinner, and much more!

1/ Best Vegan Breakfasts in London

26 Grains in Covent Garden is a top choice for a Vegan Breakie. Make sure you try their porridge with rhubarb or the Nordic Pear porridge. If you don’t like porridge, don’t worry, there is a selection of breakfast pastries available at the counter and the Banana Chocolate Danish is also a good pick.

1 Neal’s Yard, London WC2H 9DP

Also check out: 222 Veggie Vegan near West Kensington is a solid stop for breakfast and you won’t leave hungry! The customer favourite is the ‘Seitan Stroganoff’.

222 North End Rd, Hammersmith, London W14 9NU

2/ Best Vegan Cafe in London

by CHLOE. Covent Garden seems to be the place to be. Originally from New York, it has made its mark as one of the coolest casual vegan restaurant, serving the best plant-based comfort food.

Drury House, 34-43 Russell St, Covent Garden, London WC2B 5HA

3/ Best Vegan Restaurants in London

Ignore the meaty name of Wulf & Lamb, as it is one of London’s best (100 percent) vegan restaurants. Their motto is “Run with the wolves. Eat with the lambs.”

243 Pavilion Rd, Chelsea, London SW1X 0BP

Also check out: Peruvian heaven that is Andina and Fed By Water in Dalston.

4/ Best Vegan Festival in London

Vegan Nights Ldn is great opportunity to take your Vegan friends out. From italian to vegan steaks, there’s food for everyone to be happy. Their next event is on August 2nd!

Also check out: Vegfest London, they have a range of options such as Veg Yoga, Cookery Demos and a Vegan Activists Corner.

5/ Best Vegan Pizza in London

Purezza is a new vegan pizzeria, located in Camden, and also has a restaurant in Brighton. They have a tasty selection of sourdough pizzas and vegan desserts, and it’s not too pricey.

43 Parkway, Camden Town, London NW1 7PN

Also check out: Picky Wops (100 percent) vegan pizzeria in West London with an ample variety of pizza bases.

6/ Best Vegan Cakes in London

Ms. Cupcake has delicious and arguably the best cupcakes in London, vegan or not! Do try out the Salted Caramel and the Brownies and let us know what you think.

408 Coldharbour Ln, Brixton, London SW9 8LF

7/ Best Vegan Shops in London

Planet Organic has a huge selection of food, prepared to take away, to prepare yourself or purchase by weight at a fully stocked vegan buffet bar. Healthier for you, and for the planet, it’s a win-win!

22 Torrington Place, London WC1E 7HJ

Also check out: VeganBay, an online and in-store Vegan Supermarket, as well as Whole Foods Market, the famous healthy American supermarket chain which has several locations across London.

8/ Best Vegan Recipes and How to find them

Pinterest is a great place to look for Vegan recipes and ideas. Our personal favourite is the Vegan Red Thai Coconut Curry and the Thai Curry Vegetable Soup.

If you are ready to take your Veganism to the next level, a popular diet is the Vegan Ketogenic Diet. The main rules are to not eat any grains, such as wheat, corn, rice, cereal, etc… And you must eat Vegan “meats”, such as tempeh, tofu, seitan, and other high-protein, low-carb vegan “meats”, etc… For the full instructions check this article.

Vegan ‘Keto’ recipes include Avocado Chocolate Mousse, Zucchini Cauliflower Fritters, Zucchini Noodles with Avocado Sauce, Vegan Cauliflower Fried Rice and more. You can find these recipes on Delish.com & Peta.

9/ Best KFC Vegan Option

The best Vegan ‘KFC’ would be the Temple of Seitan, they fry seitan in oil until it’s crispy, and their burgers tastes even better than KFC.

10 Morning Lane, London E9 6NA

10/ Best Vegan Street Food

Club Mexicana make 100 percent vegan and ‘totally banging’ Mexican-inspired street food. Completely meat-free, their Nachos, Tacos and Burritos are some of the best on the street.

Camden Lock Market, Chalk Farm Rd, Camden Town, London NW1 8AF

So there you have it, you have all the information needed to go full vegan. You can save this link somewhere or send it to your vegan friends to plan your next outing.

Also, If you are an activist, apparently there are Vegan job opportunities in London, there’s a website and everything, check out what’s going on at Vegan Jobs.
