The Gate is an upscale vegan restaurant. Admittedly, I don't go to this tier of place often because…read morethere aren't many where I live. But the Gate is close to Eventim Apollo, where I was seeing a show later, so the convenience couldn't be beat. Service was about what I expected for this caliber of restaurant. My partner and I are low fuss but the servers were prepared to offer suggestions and wine pairings for those interested. As for the food, we enjoyed what we had--her main was a curry dish and mine a sort of deconstructed dragon roll. But our favorite part was the matcha cake cup we shared at the end. Perfectly decadent. I don't think I'd say the Gate is a must visit for London as a whole but it's a great option if you're in or planning to visit Hammersmith.

Once seated, you will enjoy the immense window that allows The Gate to be lit without the need for artificial light. The decor is simple, a mixture between minimal, arte povera and industrial; a style that seems to be a must, if you want your bar to be instagramable and hipster at the same time. Everything is completed with green leafy plants and industrial style nude bulbs hanging from the ceiling. The jazz music in the background makes the atmosphere enveloping and sophisticated, making you feel like a freelancer drinking black americano in Brooklyn. The artichoke terrine with a dried tomato paste and grilled bread left me confused, it was too salty for my taste, not too bad if eaten with bread and its paste. The presentation of the dish was pretty and the bread was freshly baked. As per the main dish I had a beetroot burger with "fries" and a little salad with vinaigrette. The salad was fresh and tasty with Dijon mustard vinaigrette. The burger instead was rubbery, pink very processed patty that can easily be found at the supermarket. The matchstick chips were too thin, on the plate more as a decoration in my opinion. The service is really slow, even when the restaurant isn't crowded. They actually completely forgot that after the starters we were still waiting for the main course. we had to remind them after waiting more than one hour. Luckily, we got a fresh baked baguette and some olive on the house for the inconvenience.

Ehh you better LOVE tofu if you wanna like the fish n chips here. It's a pretty big cut of tofu so…read moreafter the first bite, every next bite tastes the same. It was pretty creative to wrap the tofu in seaweed before battering the tofu though. The pea soup on the side was decent. Overall the meal was bland and expensive but if you're craving vegan fish n chips and don't mind filling up on tofu, this place is.... ok

Dinner for nine of us at the end of July, with a broad sweep of the menu between us. Every dish…read morecame out over-salted and short on flavour and texture - the kind of vegan cooking that felt dated rather than what the hype suggests. Given the prices, value was poor. Service was friendly and the room is pleasant enough, but the food is what we came for and it missed for all nine of us. My honest one-star review on Google was blocked from publication by posting restrictions on their listing, so I'm sharing the experience here instead - the glowing averages don't reflect our table's evening.

We visited Mildreds in Covent Garden during our trip to London, and it completely exceeded…read moreexpectations. Widely regarded as one of the city's most popular vegan restaurants, it delivers food that is satisfying, hearty, and packed with flavour. I ordered the Chick+n Caesar Burger, which featured a plant-based chick+n patty, Caesar mayonnaise, lettuce, and red onion relish. My wife chose the Beetroot Carrot Vada Burger, made with a masala-spiced beetroot and carrot patty, mango lime slaw, green chutney, and tamarind chutney. Both burgers were served with a generous portion of fries and made for a very filling meal. What stood out most was the quality of the flavours and the portion sizes. Every ingredient felt thoughtfully chosen, and the combinations worked exceptionally well together. As someone who regularly eats meat, I was genuinely impressed by the texture and flavour of the Chick+n Caesar Burger. We also ordered two fresh juices: the Cucumber, Celery & Apple and the Pineapple, Apple, Ginger & Turmeric. Both were refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, or simply looking to try something different, Mildreds is well worth a visit. The menu is creative, the food is delicious, and the overall experience demonstrates just how good plant-based dining can be. Highly recommended if you're visiting London and exploring the Covent Garden area. Service was great - super friendly staff Ambiance was nice - a chilled, quiet, progressive crowd

Mildreds was surprisingly very good - a cute little spot in Soho…read more For apps, we had the arancini and the BBQ corn, both were delicious. I found their tacos to be a little too dry. 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!

Fresh flavors that taste like home…read more While visiting London we stopped at 222 Veggie Vegan. This is a small cozy restaurant, with a menu that has something to satisfy everyone, from salads to stir-fries, to burgers. We tried a variety of dishes during our visit, and each dish was full of flavor with a homemade feeling. Additionally, portions are decent and dishes go for around 12 pounds. So if you are in London, and want a meal that is full of flavor, that feels like eating in the comfort of home, 222 Vegan is an excellent choice for the price. My Criteria 5 stars: The best food I have ever had, or an excellent option given the price. 4 stars: Good food, a restaurant I look forward to trying again. 3 stars: Good food, a restaurant that I am indifferent to. 2 stars: Below average experience, will not go again. 1 stars: This restaurant should be closed.

Came back the next day for breakfast, which generally doesn't require a reservation. The food was good. Pretty quiet atmosphere. No complaints. It's a good place for a simple vegan meal and conversation. They take all forms of credit cards, so no issues there. Basically, I would recommend it especially if you're on a vegan style diet.

The food was really not that good. The appetizer was a cauliflower dish and it was so crunchy it was like it wasn't cooked. The main was basically spaghetti, which I can make better at home. I like to go out to get plant based food that I can't make at home. The tiramisu and the drink were good. They also charge you a discretionary fee. I would be glad to tip, but don't just add a fee on my bill. Not worth the $79/USD.

Manna is NOT closed!…read more We went this weekend and it was just as good as I remembered eating here 10 years ago! We got the Buddha bowl soup to share and then a full English breakfast each - the best vegan full English breakfast in London hands down! The 'bacon' and 'eggs' were my favorite bits, followed closely by the hash brown and beans. Finished off the meal with strawberry juice from fresh Kent strawberries and a delicious slice of berry pound cake. To top it all off, the staff is lovely. Attentive and good with recommendations, plus a bit of conversation after our meal. We'll be back!

I got the Italian pizza this time: a crunchy walnut and courgette pizza crust, covered in "ricotta" with sliced black olives, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes and almond parmesan. The menu says tomato sauce but I didn't detect that. Nonetheless, it was DELICIOUS. It also arrived so quickly; guess it helped I was the only customer in there as it was near closing time. I got the pad thai as takeaway for well. The portion is huge and the rich sauces that accompanies it are amazing. For desserts, I got the bounty bars and chocolate ganache cake as takeaway. The bounty bars are even better than the original IMO; a rich blend of coconut and dark chocolate. The ganache... is very good but I think would be much better if it wasn't in the fridge. Now on the service...a young man waited on me and then after he served my food, disappeared. I mean, I saw him behind the coffee/tea counter a few feet away but he never bothered to ask how my food was, if I wanted anything else, etc. I was debating on a smoothie whilst I was eating but he never bothered to come around to ask me. I gladly removed the optional service charge from my bill. That being said, I took home the lucuma and the cocoa smoothies from the fridge and they are phenomenal. The second tastes just like a chocolate shake.
