My party of three walked around Soho for a while, looking for places for dinner that would satisfy each of our tastes. It was close to 8 by the time we ended up at Mildred's, so we figured, might as well make a stop here. Our food was great - our table had a mix of the risotto cakes, the Ethiopian stew and the veggie burger of the day, plus a side of their sundried tomato cornbread. Can't say I was very impressed with the sweet potato chips - they weren't bad, of course... I just don't get the hype. Overall though everything was quite tasty. Agree with other Yelpers who say that the service isn't so good. Staff are very brusque, which makes them seem snobbish. And a single smile every once in a while would be nice. Also the place was packed (it is a tiny little space, after all) and REALLY loud (the key to making yourself heard is NOT to talk louder than everyone around you, folks - stop perpetuating the problem) but certainly cosy, I guess. Expect to climb over your neighbours, their food and their tables in order to reach yours. DON'T expect to have any sort of private chat, as your partner probably won't be able to hear a word you're saying unless you yell it across the table, thereby including your surrounding diners in the conversation by default. (Collateral damage or a blessing for the eavesdropper in all of us? Well, you'll just have to come to Mildred's and decide for yourself.) P.S. Mildred's offers free WiFi, but you need to have a password, which I think may be listed on a sign somewhere on a wall. Might want to investigate that one. read more

It's been said before but it's worth repeating... it's crowded and they pack you in if you're here for lunch past 1.10pm you won't get a table it's all very worthy and non-corporate (perhaps a tad holier than thou) And yet I, the worshiper of being able to get a seat to eat my bacon sandwich at, am giving Mildreds 5 stars. because they do what they do well, becuase the staff although occasionally more laid back than me are never less than polite and because i could live on their sweet potato fries for the rest of my life. And becuase i have too many veggie friends to ignore the fact that mildreds prove that veggie food can be tasty inventive and bad for you. Yum read more

So delicious! Everything is vegan but their meat alternatives are amazing. Worth a try even if you're not vegan!

We got to Mildreds just in time to be seated without a wait. Started with the grilled halloumi which I had never tasted before but will be sure to look for in the States. The Polish burger was just right especially after I asked the waitress to substitute raw spinach for the iceburg lettuce. (Why eat white lettuce?) The accompanying fries were fine but not the best I've had (or seen). Great vegetarian place though and a long line of people waiting to eat by the time we left to go to theatre (6:30ish). read more

See all

Mildred's is a decent veggie restaurant that offers a global selection of dishes. The dishes we got were good but I'd focus on the cuisines that have a heritage of vegetarian or vegan fare. Gyoza was surprisingly tasty. I really enjoyed this and they were better than some of the Asian restaurants I've been too. The filling had a bit of texture unlike some veggie dumplings which can be quite mushy. Side of Asian broccoli (which was actually tenderstem broccolini and not gai lan) was well cooked with a nice sweet soy sauce dressing. Nothing special but well prepared. I had the sausage and mash with cabbage as main. This didn't fare so well. Mash and cabbage were comparable to what you'd probably make at home but the sausages tasted too strongly of fennel seeds. One bite could be quite bland but another could fill your mouth with a liquorice taste. Slightly off putting. Overall, the meal was fine. The atmosphere is quite modern which is a nice change from the hippy dippy places that normally make up veggie restaurants. The dishes seem slightly hit or miss but I'd be open to coming back and trying more. read more

I've been coming to Mildred's for years, although I'm not a fully fledged veggie, I do enjoy dining out at vegetarian restaurants (I just can't give up drunken late night burgers and bacon hangover sandwiches). Mildred's is always packed, it's small and has a buzzy Soho vibe - you can't make reservations, so if I'm coming for dinner at the weekend, I'll get here early. They also have a couple of tables outside, which is nice for lunch in the summer - a great spot for people watching. They have daily specials, and the menu always has the option of salads, a curry dish, pasta dish, burrito, tagine, and my fave, a veggie burger (they have different types that change daily), always to be accompanied by a side of sweet potato fries - stodgy and delicious. If you're looking for a place to have a birthday dinner, ask about the private dining room that they have upstairs - I've used it before for a birthday, it's free to hire and you can bring an ipod and play your own music. I've dined at Mildred's with many non vegetarians, and everyone always agrees that the food is great and good value for money. read more

As a vegetarian, Mildreds has been on my radar for quite some time. The few times I have tried to get a table have been Friday/Saturday nights, and I was put off by the hour-long queue. I finally managed to go to Mildred's outside of the restaurant's peak hours at 4pm on a Friday, there were several tables available but the place was still busy. With regards to ambiance, there is very little. Mildred's is quite noisy and has no windows, I really like natural light unless the restaurant can compensate with cosy candles etc. I had already consulted the menu and knew that I was going to go for the vegan mushroom and ale pie with chips and mushy peas. The butternut squash curry that my partner opted for looked really good but I wanted to stick with my original choice, as vegetarian pies are harder to come by. When the pie arrived, I felt an initial disappointment. It was not a pot pie but rather some very watery gravy topped with some puff pastry-it didn't even seem homemade. The chips were good but too fried. My partner's curry was good once you added the coconut chilli, but nothing extraordinary. For £11, the meal was quite disappointing in all honesty. Pie minster or Clives pies offerings are better than what I had here, and much cheaper. I looked at the pudding menu but didn't feel particularly inspired by the brownie and cheesecake offerings. I won't be back in a hurry. read more

Mildreds - Mushroom and ale pie - Vegan Near Me - London, XGL

While I wasn't a fan of the building itself or the decor (this place was tiiiiny, yo), I really really enjoyed the food. I had one of their daily veggie burgers and sweet potato fries. I have an absolute undeniable 24/7 craving for sweet potato fries and THESE were amazing. The food was so filling, which was good because I was starving. So much so that when the waitress asked 'do you want to know what the vegetarian burger special is?' I said nope, just bring it out....THAT hungry. Mildred's did well, considering I'm usually a 'where's the meat' type of girl. I left, £10 lighter, feeling 5 lbs. heavier and vowing to come back and investigate some more of their food. Maybe not on a Saturday at lunchtime though, a little space would be great :) read more

So, after reading raving reviews about this little veggie gem I finally made it a priority to go last night. And I was not disappointed. We arrived around 7pm to a packed room so we started off sitting outside indulging in cava (they were out of prosecco) and chatting. Really nice way to start off. After 30-40 minutes, we were seated. And I have to say, I just love looking at a menu and wanting to eat every single dish. It all sounded so delicious! Not being able to make up our minds, my friend and I decided for 3 starters (!) and two mains. All together we had the beetroot salad, the grilled halloumi and the dumplings for starters, while for mains we decided for the sweet potato curry and Asian stir fry. Everything was great - really good. I have wheat allergies and didn't taste the dumplings, but from what I understood they were divine. The beetroot salad was also quite good, however, the grilled halloumi was out of this world. Yum! I have to admit that we were so stuffed after starters, that we didn't really have the appetite to seriously dig into our mains. Such a shame as they were gorgeous. Another friend joined us later and had some chocolate cake with his cava - and told us it was just OK. We took his word for it, no room left for tasting. I would go back any day! :-D read more

Mildred's never ceases to amaze me. I'm not a veggie, but I have quite a few friends who are. I've been here on a number of occasions now and I'd have to say that there's never been a time that I've been disappointed. Sadly, though, I can't rate it 5* because it is pretty simple fare. Tasty, but simple. Anyway, the food is definitely delightful, and the last time I went, I had brought my college best friend who was visiting from LA and a recently turned veggie. We had chatted about this place, mainly because there aren't enough LA veggie restaurants and I was proud to show off the local homage to veggie dining. Friend has never been stumped for choice since turning veggie and loved the fact that he couldn't quite come to a choice. He settled on the sweet potato curry (which is very good - and a staple on the menu) and I went with the chick pea burger. All in all, Mildred's is a good place to go even if you are an omnivore because the atmosphere is great, the food's good and the wine list decent. 4*s! Will definitely return. And certainly worth the trip. read more

The food is great, but the staff is incredibly rude! Having worked in service before (in a super busy restaurant), I was taken aback by how sassy all the servers were. My party of 12 sat in the private dining area and throughout the night we were made to feel like they were doing us a huge favour. We weren't expecting a song and dance, but a little warmth and hospitality would have gone a long way. Definitely go for the food, but I think the manager needs to prescribe a round of prozac. read more

Managed to get a table at this popular spot straight away early on a Thursday evening. We were sat upstairs, which didn't have the buzz and feel of the main downstairs dining area but was nice nonetheless with open sash windows letting Soho in. You can get a drink at the bar while you wait for a table, if you like. We shared an antipasti starter for two between the five of us and all enjoyed the selection on it - great mozzarella, tomatoes, courgette strips and more. For my main I had the wild mushroom pie which came with a good portion of chips and peas. All of us were happy with our meals, veggies and non veggies alike, and between us we only made it through about half the wide ranging menu! I left very happy and very stuffed. Some of the best veggie food I've had in a long time. I'll be back. read more

Whenever I'm in London, dinner at Mildred's is a must. For a San Francisco guy it's really nice to be able to go to an amazing vegetarian restaurant in London. The Brits have gone a long way to eliminate the stereotypes usually associated with English cooking, but to me, Mildred's is the reason I will never ever make fun of British food again. I dare say they actually out-do some of my favorite San Francisco vegetarian places. read more

I have been a couple of times and feel disappointed. I say this as everything I have eaten in there I know I could have made a lot better myself or know of other people that can cook it a lot better. Vegetarian food needn't be boring, I am not someone who has to eat meat at every sitting either but when I pay for food no matter what is in it I want good food. Mildred's is a place I feel was once somewhere wonderful but now is severely lacking on many levels when it comes to the food. I shared some homemade chips and basil mayo. They were ok, but not incredible. I followed this with a teriyaki vegetable and tofu stirfry which was rubbish. I had one singular leaf of pak choi amongst big chunks of onion, leek and broccoli all sat on some brown rice. There needs to be more chinese greeens in here and not just leeks in every mouthful. The tofu was so so, the sauce not punchy enough so the tofu just tasted like lightly soy flavored mush. My beloved had a detox salad with goats cheese which was pleasant but overpriced at 9.00. We decided to share a crumble and custard and I was severely disappointed in this. The custard was soy based but was thin and tasted like ricey dishwater. There was a distinct lack of vanilla. The crumble fruit tasted lovely but it was cold! By the time my meal was over I was enjoying the company of a friend as it was her birthday but inside I felt slightly sad that she hadn't experienced better food especially as it was a birthday meal and she doesn't eat out all the time. But I feel more irritated that a place like Mildred's had such rubbish choices on the menu and meals that could have been a lot better and didn't leave diners feeling they could have made something better themselves. My beloved was especially excited about Mildred's and has been raving about it and she too felt as disappointed with the food as I was. She has now resumed her growling about the fact I went to Viajante too. Seriously if I don't take her soon I am going to have a bitten off ear or will be forced to eat in Mildreds again. Yes the food really is that naff in there right now. read more

Great ambiance - fun people - great food. We had 2 large dishes - the Sri Lankan dish was amazing They have organic juice too and that tasted good. Great pice. read more

This was my second meeting with an all vegetarian restaurant and like the last encounter this was like my rating, A-OK!! We had a two starters to share, the special cheese fondue and a grilled halloumi salad! don't get me wrong I love my cheese however the cheese fondue was very strong the the cheese was very grainy! its very hard to get a grilled halloumi wrong and thank god they didn' t, the dressing was fantastic it really brought the whole dish together, the saltiness of the halloumi with the sweetness of the tomato and the balsamic dressing. For the main I had the burrito filled with spicy black turtle beans, corn, red pepper and green tomatillo rice, topped with spicy sauce and cheddar served with iceberg, sour cream, guacamole and pico de gallo. However the food was very bland and tasteless! Having dinner with a group of girls and we of course had dessert, we had the raspberry and dark chocolate truffle and salted caramel, hazelnut and chocolate cheesecake. The truffle was ordinary, the dusting of chocolate left a weird taste in your mouth. But the cheesecake was fantastic! the salted caramel was great! I would definitely recommend this restaurant on the following conditions, 1. catching up with friends 2. if you have vegetarian friends The service was slow but the staff was great fun! read more

Absolutely divine veggie restaurant in Soho! I'm not veggie, but lots of my friends are, so we go here quite a bit. Everyone should go here whether veggie or not, as it's just fantastic. Honestly never had a bad meal here, or an even an ok one, always great. read more

My cousin was in town visiting and since she's a vegetarian, I wanted to take her to a vegetarian restaurant. Mildred's had good reviews, so we decided to give it a go. I was worried we might have to wait a while since it was 7pm on Friday night, but they were able to seat us right away. We started with the artichoke crostini and spinach ravioli. My cousin and her friend seemed to enjoy the burrito and stir-friend asian vegetables that they got for their main courses, but I thought I was the winner with the risotto cake. The mint was a really nice and unusual touch. The highlight though had to be the desserts. We split the pavlova and the chocolate truffle cake. I think we pretty much licked out plates clean. read more

Great place with a fab (though loud) atmosphere. Thumbs up for serving real food, the tagine was flavoursome, the burger was great and filling, and the ale pie won over both my veggie boy and a meat loving friend. Only wish that I had had room for pudding! read more

I've had a variety of great and terrible experiences here. And that does seem to be the norm these days. The food is overall really nice, it's the service that can be lacking. Last year was the worst. At lunch we waited longer for food than everyone around who ordered after us, was brought the wrong food, the correct food was cold and with hair in it. Not even a "sorry" from the staff, just bitterness. And that's why I haven't been back in a year. Last week I took a gaggle of out-of-towners for dinner here because it has something for everyone and it was DELIGHTFUL! Excellent and attentive service, great ambiance, didn't wait very long, the food was superb- wowing the sceptical omnivores to the jaded vegans! It has absolutely renewed my faith in them and I will definitely be bringing friends here for the dinner service! read more

I have to admit that I wasn't thrilled to go to a vegetarian restaurant, but one of our friends had requested Mildreds and so we went with it. To my surprise, Mildreds was really good! Food: We ordered the Mexican platter and panfried halloumi to share for appetisers. For entrees we ordered the detox salad with goat cheese, the burrito and two jack burgers with fries. I ordered the burrito which was super delicious and I highly recommend it! Drinks: We ordered four bellinis and two fresh juices. Price: For four people we paid 102.77 GBP. Ambiance: The restaurant is busy on the weekends so be ready to wait. It's loud and the seating is tight. Note: The bar doesn't serve anything but bread and olives so you can't order apps while waiting. The restaurant seems popular with younger people. There was a large group of young people next to us who were incredibly loud and obnoxious. Even though we were only a group of four it was very hard to hear what we were saying even though we were sitting next to each other. Service: The service was ok. The hostess and the server weren't the most friendly. Would I go back? Yes, but I would go early to have a pleasant dinner and not have to deal with the noise level because the food is actually very good and is the saving grace of this restaurant. read more

Came here for dinner earlier this week, and while the food was good, the service was a bit weird. We stood around for a few minutes without being greeted once. Not by the bartender or anyone who was awkwardly staring at us, as we looked for a host. We were asked if we were okay with a communal table, as a 2 top wouldn't be available for 20-30 minutes. We said that was fine and sat down at an empty 4 top. I was facing the restaurant, and within 5 minutes of being seated, two 2 tops were vacated. Okay then. We were served promptly and the food was good, although days later, I cannot for the life of me remember what I ordered, besides the dumplings as an appetizer. We were headed to the theater after our meal, so when our plates were cleared and we were asked if we wanted dessert, I declined and asked for the check. Instead of the check, a different waiter brought dessert menus. Okayyyyy. Once he came back (he literally dropped them and then scooted away), I asked for the check again, paid and left. All in all, if randomness is your thing, you'd probably like this place. It was also super loud, as the restaurant itself is very small. read more

I should love this place. I'm a vegetarian and this should be my mecca. Right in the heart of Soho is this cool, stylish vegetarian eatery with food that is usually very good. The sweet potato fries with sour cream are great to share... and the burrito is one of the best I've had in London. However, there's a drawback here for me, and it's a biggie. Mildred's doesn't take reservations. So many times I've showed up here with mates and we've had to wait for what feels like an eternity. The staff let you squeeze into the seats in the front with a glass of wine to sip, but it's crowded and noisy and so unattractive. Plus seeing the food whiz by to the seated patrons can be tortuous when you're there on an empty stomach. Grrr, I should have never written this review. Can't get those sweet potato fries out of my head. Any chance you'd wait in queue for me if I share my fries? read more

Stellar dinner here. Came on a Saturday night sans reservation and seated within 15 minutes at a shared table (they have non-shared tables too). We had a bottle of wine - an organic Malbec that rang in at just over 20 quid, which was very good value, I thought, as it was a pretty tasty wine (they had sub-20 quid bottles, too). Sweet rather than dry, but that's sometimes nice. We each had a starter, a main and we split a dessert. Starters were dumplings for her and a salad of rocket, blue cheese, figs and walnuts for me; both were great. Mains were the burger with sweet potato fries, and the 'detox' salad, which was lots of carrots and other assorted veggies. For dessert we had the dark chocolate and raspberry truffle, which was delicious and went well with the wine (n.b. I usually think pairing food and wine is a dubious endeavor, but in this case it worked well - good work, us). The whole meal came to a little under 70 quid, which while isn't cheap isn't bad either for a multi-course meal and full bottle of wine. I would definitely return to this place. read more

Probably my favourite restaurant in London. The staff who've served me have always been great (especially the Brazilian guy who gave me free sweet potato fries - lovely man!), the food is always delicious and the atmosphere is great, but I prefer to sit at the window at the front rather than being seated amongst all the other diners in the main room. Some of the dishes are a little overpriced but generally the prices are good. They make a mean burger, and wicked fries. read more

Mildred's is one of those establishments my DH and I had been dying to cross off our list. After deciding to cancel our plans (due to weather, boo!) to go to the Southbank World Street Food Festival, we headed there in hopes we'd get a table. Eureka! There was no wait time and we were seated immediately. But boy...was it cramped! Mildred's is tiiiiiiiiiiiiny, catering to a lot of people at once. I didn't mind because there seemed to be no rush to get up and leave - enjoy your meal at peace, patrons of Mildreds. Have a few drinks and relax. We ordered our drinks. I had a Bellini and my husband had the Daas Blond beer. Our starters were the Mediterranean platter and the chinese fried dumplings. Let me say, it irks me when starters arrive before drinks. That's a basic - it shouldn't be done wrong. I'd like to quench my thirst after a day of shopping, thank you very much. Our starters arrived and I'd have to say, they were a mixed bag. Absolutely skip the Mediterranean platter, which our server said was marginally better than the Mexican platter. The yogurt and beetrot dip was the only savior of the mixture. Everything else seemed like it came off the shelf at Tesco express. Sorry Mildreds - I've seen better. The chinese fried dumplings, however, were FANTASTIC. Served with an amazing sauce and kimchi, we ate it down to the last crumb. If we could have had ten more of those, I'd have been in heaven. Please, please for the love of God, order these if you want to lose your ever-loving mind on a brief trip to flavour town... Mains were an easy choice. I ordered the tomato and basil risotto cake while my husband opted for the burrito (without the guacamole, please). Both came fast and the portions were MASSIVE. Everything was fabulous so I cannot complain there. We said we wouldn't bother with dessert but ordered the chocolate and peanut butter brownie, served warm with ice cream. Oh my. That was a treat. I know brownies are played out but I couldn't help myself, reader. I needed it. There is no better marriage of ingredients than chocolate and peanut butter and this union did it justice. I don't quite get what people are saying about the service being piss-poor. Our server was friendly, helpful and sharp. Our only complaints were the tiny sizes of the tables and the cramped seating. The bill was also a little ridiculous. Over 70 pounds for a few drinks, some starters and mains? Come on! Any restaurant with a burrito as a main course has no right to charge such astronomical prices, in my opinion. The menu changes every so often to go with the season so we will be back! Great meal. read more

Very nice atmosphere!! the food is just amazing, even for meat lovers like the friend I went with. We had 2 appetizers (halloumi is delicious!!) and one main each (burrito and stir vegetables and brown rice!) overall a full 5!! read more

I was excited to visit this popular vegetarian/vegan restaurant for a long time. Twice I had tried my luck with getting a table in the evening but then didn't want to wait that long. The third time I went there for a weekday lunch and had to wait for only about ten minutes. Unfortunately I was quite disillusioned the moment I stepped into the narrow dining room. The photographs on the website make the place look much nicer than it is. It's nice to have a menu full of veggie choices but the menu isn't really exciting or special. I ordered a Mushroom Ale Pie with Chips and Mushy Peas - bad idea! The chips and peas are not worth mentioning but the pie was really not enjoyable at all. It had a weird bitter taste. I don't think I'll go again. I'd rather accept a more resticted choice of veggie dishes but at least have a more exciting and tasteful experience. read more

The staff were absolutely lovely, all very welcoming and attentive. Service was not too fast and not too slow. I had the peach iced tea, which was amazing, followed by the tempeh poke bowl. The bowl was delicious, the peanut sauce was amazing and the tempeh was perfect. The atmosphere was lovely, low relaxing music and mood lighting. I will absolutely be coming here again! read more

Vegetarian hamburgers are a challenge. Face it, a portobello mushroom slapped in between a sesame bun will just never compete. Mildred's does a good, wholesome burger with fresh chunky fries. The haloumi was nothing to sing and dance about. Sometimes I find the crowd here slightly pretentious - a bit like I am superior because I don't eat meat. Well yes what am I doing at Mildreds then? Okay all is forgiven. When feeling loving and compassionate toward the world, I can forgive the waiters' brusque impatience as the restaurant can get packed. It's always encouraging to see people moving towards a healthier way of life. read more

I've visited twice, once for lunch and another time for dinner. For lunch my girlfriend and I had the stir-fry with tofu and the duck wrap with a ginger chocolate "pudding" as dessert. The dinner meal included the dishes of the day: creamed legume soup, mushroom veggie pasta, and apple/rhubarb crumble. The soup blew my mind. The pasta had too much pasta and not enough veggies. The crumble was worth the 9-day wait I had to endure between visits to taste it. YUM. Girlfriend LOVED the place. Cha-ching! read more

I probably did not come here when I study in London due to that I broke and rarely ate out. But recently I traveled back to Europe and when I met up with some friends in London they said "Vegetarian...let's got to Mildred's!" Definitely wish I ate here more. We all got the mozzarella risotto cakes which normally I wouldn't have allowed myself to order the same thing as everyone else at the table, but it was in fact excellent! VERY filling! I shared a hummus and babaganoush dish as an appetizer that was also very tasty. The service was excellent, and our waiter was pretty cute as well ;) I see that a lot of people here think that it was loud but I didn't find it too loud, we were able to have our conversations and not have to yell or hear others. And the servers were not bothered that we stayed there for a LONG time either! We also popped into the bakery next door which is owned by Mildred's, and I had a yummy cupcacke! Sidenote, both places are have very good options for people with ciliac's, read more

Oh Mildred, what can I say that hasn't already been said? Your Sweet Potato fries are worth the journey alone and you actually make your veggie burgers rather than buying frozen soy patties. The risotto cakes, your soups, the sage butternut squash ravioli, in fact I would gladly eat anything on your menu. Well except for that green Thai curry dish. Let's be honest, you kind of mailed it in on that one... and I do have to say I was pouty when you replaced the raspberries in your flourless dark chocolate cake with oranges. Am I the *only* person who things dark chocolate and orange is a bad idea? Still, you are easily one of my London favorites. At a similar price point to Eat and Two Veg, frankly Mildred, it isn't even close. I've taken a number of non veggie guests to you and everybody loves it. In fact, my parents are coming to visit again in October, guess where they want to eat again? My mom even remembered your name; Mildred, *that* is saying something. You do get busy for dinner most nights and always on the weekend evenings, which sometimes lead to slow service. I hate to wait, but for you, I will. And what is this whole waiter attitude thing I'm reading about, because you always treat me right. Mildred, you can tell me, am I your favorite? (Ah, I knew it!) Even if some other Yelpers haven't been showing you the love here recently, I'm here to let you know that you are 6 stars in my book. read more

On my numerous visits to Mildreds over the past few years I've enjoyed the tasty food, the wine, the extensive vegan options and even the notoriously offish waiting staff. I used to smile and tell funny tales about being served by sulky waitresses, pointing out to friends that as long as the food stayed good and came in a reasonable time I didn't care what mood the staff were in. It saves on tipping, right? Last time I went, however, the shine had dulled on my Mildreds experience . A group of six of us headed there for my birthday meal, arriving one by one over the space of about 20 minutes. There was plenty of space and I was assured we could definitely have a table, but that we'd have to wait until we had all arrived before we could sit down. This had happened to me before at Mildreds so I wasn't surprised, but as two of us, then three of us, then four, then five ended up standing in the crowded bar area at the front of the restaurant in full view of our empty, ready and waiting table I got more and more annoyed about the policy. Eventually I lied and said the last person couldn't make it just so we were allowed to sit down and look at the menuwhen she showed up 10 minutes later a waitress huffily brought her cutlery back. I'm not a silly teenager and don't really expect special treatment on my birthday from complete strangers, but let's just say the moody Mildreds staff failed to amuse me that night. However you feel about your customers, having a certain degree of respect for the fact that they are paying for the privilege of sitting and eating in your restaurant is surely a standard requirement, and appreciating that there are plenty of other places to choose to go to for friendlier, less uppity service on special occasions might make them try a bit harder to keep customers coming back. The one thing they have is the nice food, but it's not amazing enough for me to forget the rest. I've probably been to Mildreds about seven times over the past two years, but the way I feel about the place right now I couldn't tell you when or if I will be back. The churlish service compounded with recent information that their famed veggie burgers were made with Sosmix - a soya protein mix you can get in shops for about £2 - has really put me off. With so many other good places to eat in the vicinity I think I'm going to be giving miserable Mildreds a miss for a while at least. read more

I dragged my other half here as part of my 'detox' vegan-esqe diet. I knew when he was happy it was obviously a good place. The food is all sold to you in an appealing way, unlike many other vegetarian/vegan places which try to make there food into something it is not. I went for the 'sausages' and celeriac mash, although there was less mash and more cabbage to my liking, and my partner had mushroom and ale pie (he even forgot there was no meat in it). The chocolate & raspberry torte was to die for, it says it was a vegan, but tasted so much like the real thing it was had to believe. This place does get packed quickly, and as you can not book you can make use of the bar (which is fully stocked with organic wines and beers as well as smoothies). At around 7-8 quid per main it was not a bad price. Would definetely return, even if i wasn't 'being vegan'. read more

Mildreds - Vegan Near Me - London, XGL

As most people have said Mildred's is the sort of veggie restaurant that you'd be happy to take non veggies to. The vegetable stir fries are very filling by themselves but can be made even more so by adding Tofu. The last time I went I had a very satisfying mushroom and ale pie with mushy peas and chips. It made a great healthier veggie option to a steak and ale pie. Desserts, if you can fit them in, are fantastic. There's always a good fruity crumble with cream or custard and if you go when the meringue is on the menu, it's wonderful. read more

Mildred's is affordable, as opposed to places like Saf in London. However, the atmosphere is at an all time L.O.U.D. and it's hard to enjoy the meal when you're screaming.
