Having spent a lot of time trawling the internet trying to find recommendations for decent vegan-friendly places to eat in our beautiful city, I came to the realisation that this information can be actually quite difficult to find. Cue the best excuse to try out lots of delicious food…

Vegan review: Taberu

I discovered Taberu has a large separate vegan menu, with gluten free also well catered for, and had to restrain myself from ordering every single item on the menu.

Vegan Review: Happy Friday Kitchen

It had been far too long since I’d last visited Happy Friday Kitchen, Oxford’s original vegan restaurant and California-style junk food bar. A few weeks ago, when things were somehow normal, I was very happy to be invited back to try some of their new menu items.

Vegan review: Beefeater

You probably wouldn’t expect to see a review of a restaurant like Beefeater on a vegan blog, and I know that a lot of readers might avoid a place like this at all costs. However, as my aim is to make veganism as easy and accessible as possible, I thought it was worth including.

Vegan review: Lula’s Ethiopian and Eritrean Cuisine

Lula’s Ethiopian and Eritrean Cuisine has been a familiar face at the Gloucester Green market on Wednesdays and Saturdays for a long time, with her vegan options being a firm favourite for a tasty lunch.

Vegan Eats… Prague

With a little planning before our trip (which I always do anyway because food is one of my favourite parts about travel) we were so impressed with the availability and ease of eating vegan in Prague.

Review: Delhish Vegan Kitchen

I feel sad about posting this review. As it’s only the second vegan restaurant to open in Oxford, I was really excited to visit Delhish Vegan Kitchen and to give my support to a new independent vegan business. Unfortunately, based on our experience when we visited for Valentine’s Day, I don’t feel able to recommend it.

Vegan review: V Stack pop-up restaurant

The pop-up saw the launch of V Stack’s brand new burger, the Jammer Stack, which I was told took them endless tweaks and hours and hours of work to get perfect. On tasting it, I hope they feel the time and effort was absolutely worth it, because this burger is insane!

Vegan Eats… Amsterdam

A recent trip to Amsterdam had me overwhelmed with just how many vegan restaurants there are, and how easy it is to find plant-based options at other places too! I spent three excellent days of eating (consuming some culture along the way) with my friend Becky, and here are some of the highlights.

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, whether you typically ‘celebrate’ it or not, it’s a great excuse to go out and enjoy some tasty vegan food. Explore our round-up of great vegan food in Oxford, whether you’re looking to go all out, or for something a bit more low-key.

Vegan Review: Oxfam Superstore

We arrived around 1pm, by which time the vegan apricot filled croissants had long since sold out (good excuse to go again soon). It’s a small cafe, but the chilled cabinet had a good selection of vegan sandwiches available, and there was hot food on offer too.

Vegan Review: Skogen Kitchen

Tucked away down King Edward Street is this cute Scandinavian Café, Skogen Kitchen, and they are nailing the hygge vibes. Having spied that they sell vegan cinnamon buns to order on their website, I was sure they would be a vegan-friendly spot to meet a friend for a light lunch and long catch-up.
