Vegan and live in London? Here is a list of the best vegan restaurants in London to eat at! They are the best London vegan restaurants you will find.

With London often being a little ahead of the game in comparison to the rest of the country, it’s no surprise that London boasts some of the best and up-and-coming vegan bakeries, restaurants and fast food providers that England has to offer. Whether you live in London or are just passing through, here are the things you can absolutely not miss.

1. For fried chicken that you won’t believe isn’t real, get yourself to Temple of Seitan in Hackney.

I know what you’re thinking, and yes, everything in that photo is vegan. Vegan fried chicken, vegan mac and cheese. If you’re a fan of your comfort food and miss KFC, get your vegan butt down to Hackey. And yes, they do do popcorn chicken. It is one of best vegan restaurants in London for fried chicken.

2. Vegan Hippo can give you the vegan hot-dog of your dreams.

Who said that hotdogs were only for meat eaters? Soho’s Vegan Hippo hits all the spots with generous portions and tons of sauce and fried onions. And it doesn’t only do hotdogs: Vegan Hippo has got a wide variety of options, from kebabs to sweet treats.

3. For a grab-and-go lunch, hit Veggie Pret.

If you’ve been vegan for longer than a week, you will have heard of Veggie Pret. But if you don’t live in London, the odds are that you have only watched on in envy. Well now’s your chance! With two cafes in London, Veggie Pret boasts a fully meat-free selection, with a very wide range of vegan options. With a selection of wraps, sandwiches, baguettes, salads and hot food, there’s bound to be something you like – but pssst, we hear that the vegan mac and cheese and the vegan brownie are hot favourites!

4. For the egg mayo sandwich you never thought you’d have again, go to Ms Cupcake.

Believe it or not, this is actually made of tofu… but will hit all of your egg sandwich cravings. Ms Cupcake is in Brixton, and is waiting for you.

5. But wait… don’t Ms Cupcake do, you know, cupcakes?

The answer to this is yes, absolutely. Along with a multitude of other sweet vegan treats, including this caramel cookie dough brownie (*drool*). If you like a good cake or brownie, don’t stop at the sandwich, make sure you pick yourself up something for after as well.

6. Like pie? Of course you do.

Mildred’s is a famous name in the London vegan community, and for good reason. To get yourself a slice of this wood roasted mushroom and ale pie (or any of the other delights on the menu), get yourself down to Camden. It is the best vegan restaurants in London for pie!

7. Love a good burger? Big V London will sort you out.

Depending on the day of the week you’ll have to go different places in order to get your hands on one of these vegan burgers, but it’s worth it. For a burger that will make your friends wonder why they’re not vegan too, head to Borough Market Thursday to Saturday, Broadway Market on Saturday, or Victoria Park Market on Sunday.

9. If you love a full English, The Grand Howl has your back.

The vegan full English breakfast is a rare beast, but not at The Grand Howl Roastery. Get yourself to Well Street to be reunited with your breakfast true love. (We also hear it’s great for hangovers). It is the best vegan restaurants in London for a full English breakfast without a doubt.

11. Big V London isn’t the only burger on the block…

Meet The Vurger Co. Also boasting a wide selection of vegan burgers (or ‘vurgers’), it’s difficult to choose between the two – so why not go to both?! You can currently find The Vurger Co. in Bethnal Green on a Sunday, but look out for new events on The Vurger Co. website.

12. For rainbow cake, fast food, vegan eclairs and homemade ice cream, head to Vx at Kings Cross.
