Everything we tried was fresh and tasty and there were some really unusually fillings - lots of fancy deli stuff to choose from. Most of the salads come in under a fiver which is a bargain as the portions are huge. I might have to load mine up with a pasta of potato base, but if you're watching what you eat this is a great snacky option. And of course, if you pop down there in the next two weeks, you'll get to try out Qyper Mseasons' salad - she won the salad making competition and her salad will be on sale for everyone to try! Well worth popping into, even if it's not the first place you'd think of for lunch.

Salad munchers, dieters and despairing general eaters of Baker Street/Bond Street area... REJOICE!…read more There is a flipping chop'd inside selfridges food court!!! This has mainly delighted me due to trying several local salad chains to my office and missing my daily chop'd. Anyone wondering what this elusive chop'd is of which I speak? It's in essence a salad fast food chain which serves up salads made to order as you go along choosing the delights you want in your salad. Today I had lettuce, pasta, red onion, tomato, sweetcorn and ham, with a fat free dressing called sesame soy. It was delicious, as I knew it would be, because Chop'd is consistently good quality ingredients. They aren't stingy on the contents either, mine was fully loaded with all the good stuff. This chop'd branch is smaller than most, but the queue was comparitvely small (the one in spitalfields used to be about 50 deep sometimes). They have most ingredients that the big stores have, and the staff are nice. Thank god. Salad harassment via Yelp over now I've found my BFF Chop'd again.

I wish I would have been hungrier to try some of their delicious nut butter toasts ! I had a matcha latte with rose leaves. It was good but a bit pricy for the given size.

A super healthy choice and very reasonably priced, but I found the "tip of the iceberg" bowl to be lacking in any real flavor or character.

I pretty much ordered 90% of the items here for takeaway as I was excited about the diverse range of veg food: from the cauli rice to the roasted aubergines and sweet potato to the courgette pasta. Also a broccoli and shrimp takeaway salad box. And various desserts. So yes I spent at least £30. Butttt so many disappointments. The aubergines were tasteless. The sweet potato were nice, thick chunks with cumin or some other spice so those were better. The cauli rice with chickpeas was a bit oily but I think the tastiest of the bunch. As for the desserts, much sadness. Whilst the protein ball was AMAZING- bursting with nut flavour- the vegan (?) raspberry brownie was just awful. I tossed it after one bite (that I spit out into a napkin). So wouldn't return sadly :(

The moment I step in, one of the staff explained the concept of Tibit to me. Items are clearly labelled. Because I was there around breakfast time, I did not get a chance to see the lunch and dinner options. With that said, I really enjoyed the vegan "sausage" roll (1.60 pound). It was flakey on the outside and filled with delicious UFO (unidentified filling option). I commend Tibits for their plant-based ingenuity.

I went here for the first time about a month ago…read more LOCATION: This location is right off of Regent Street and fairly nearby Piccadilly Circus and Oxford Circus. 4/5 ATMOSPHERE: The atmosphere was pretty great. It was clean and roomy, and I liked the overall vibe. 4/5 SELECTION: It's all vegetarian (but they have labels for which are vegan, along with some other allergy notifications) and it's like a hot food bar, where you put whatever you want on a plate and then they weigh it, and you pay per 100g. There are 40 different dishes offered daily, including salads, hot dishes, and desserts. They also have drinks and cocktails. 3/5 WHAT I GOT: From what I remember/can see from my picture, I got white rice, mixed greens, bok choy, a grilled veggies mix, a green beans mix, a potatoes and peas mix and some of an artichoke dish. All of the stuff I got was vegan. It was all pretty good and tasted fresh and of good quality -- in fact, it was probably the best buffet/hot food type bar I've ever been to. None of it tasted like it'd been sitting out for a while, and none of it was undercooked or tasted too processed. The only complaint I have is that I wish they refrained from using oil, but it actually could've been much worse, so that's that. 3/5 SERVICE: The employees seemed friendly. I mean, we didn't really need to interact with them much, given the style of eatery, but they seemed nice lol. 4/5

The mains were so good. We had the Korean fried chicken burger (which was HUGE, by the way), the beetroot burger, and the tofu salad. The burgers were very good, but boy, when I took a bite of my friend's salad, I fell in love. It was refreshing, the flavors were yum, and I'm drooling a bit rn thinking about it. The staff were extremely quick, kind, and sweet. There's lots of seating, although the downstairs area was quite packed. Overall, I loved the ambience of the place!

Bibi's Kitchdb is fresh and delicious, not too much decision-making which is good when you are walking around and feel bombarded by too many options.

Good salad base with bulgar wheat and carrots and cabbage, and healthy add-ons like coconut chicken or falafel and avocado. Highly recommend the tahini dressing. And the vegan desserts took a lot of willpower to turn down this time around but I'll be back. It's tucked into a little square and very cute outdoor seating with flowers all around.

We were worried when a revised confirmation said it would be 2.5 hours vs 2 hours as we had tickets to a show that same night.. I messaged them and they said we could switch to a la carte and we would be out on time for our show. We arrived right at 5pm and were seated immediately. The inside is cozy and warm with an open kitchen where you can see all the chefs working. It was not busy this night so we had a very friendly and attentive server. The food was unique and flavourful and enjoyed by all. Our table had the corn bread, arepas, fish, cow pastrami, vegan rice & tofu plate and ended with a creme brûlée, variety of sorbets and a lovely gf/vegan cookie with zero waste banana sorbet.

Is quite awkwardly placed away from the rest of the shops on Marylebone high street but should get a bit of footfall as the road it sits on is one of the key routes between Baker Street and Marylebone. The decor is lovely, but the food options are very limited, and pretty pricey. I am not sure if they are supposed to have a gimmick of being 'Organic', farmed by Pixies or include vegetables grown exclusively in Alpaca poop, but couldn't really see how they justified the high price and small portion. The service also needs a bit of brush up. There were 2 of us in there, one paying, the other (me) waiting and 3 members of staff. Good ratio for good service? You would think so, but the 2 people not working just looked on and it was only until the person in front had paid and left before anyone paid any attention to me and what I wanted...so what do these other 2 people do?? Anyhow, I think I'll wait a little while for them to find their groove as it is a new business and then come back to give it another go. After all, the food I did buy was good and they do have some interesting flavour combinations.

So for the night vibe alone, the place is worth visiting. The 2 dishes we ordered were excellent. The garlic naan was excellent. The service was excellent. The 15 minute wait was spent walking up and down the street, sneaking into a blues bar where a live performer was wailing and strumming. A beautiful evening in London was capped by a wonderful dinner at Dishoom.
