Affordable quality vegan fast food

We went for an early dinner to the Arancini Brothers branch in Maltby Street. It was empty and the street market with food stalls was very quiet as well. I think this area is livelier during the day anyway, but covid doesn't help. 2 more couples showed up before we left, but this is a fast food place where you don't really linger. You just eat your food and go. I liked that there were different size booths, and although the place was small, the separation between them was decent for corona times.

I didn't know that Arancini Brothers were fully plant-based, so that was a nice surprise to find in the Happy Cow app. They have a few branches in London. They make risotto vegan burgers and wraps with risotto balls, plus sides. They also make breakfast but only in the morning (in case you're interested). I had the spicy chorizo burger, which had the risotto patty, vegan chorizo pieces, that were more like no-chicken but nice anyway, vegan cheese, salad and sauces. The spicy sauce wasn't hot, but I was happy with it. The bun bread was good quality bread, unlike some other cheap burger bread you get to find in fast food restaurants. The size of the meal was good for my hungry stomach and the food felt freshly made. My favourite part were the paprika fries. Paprika on everything. Paprika for president. My partner had the BBQ cheese burger, which had mushrooms in it, and he was quite happy with his as well.

In summary, it was a very good price for a filling meal, and the variety and quality of vegan food for a junk food chain was good enough. Tasty paprika fries. I would come back!

Pros: Paprika fries!, Fully vegan menu

Great Fast Food

If you need a quick fix then this is the place. Spent £17 which for London isn't bad at all. 12 balls, soy sausage roll and a salad. Sausage roll had been sat for a bit so was chewy, but will let them off as they were closing; no point cooking a fresh one.

Pros: It's all vegan. , Price. , Salad tastes great.

Cons: Food can be left on the hot plate.

Lovely little gem

First time we visited this place (near London Bridge station/Tower Bridge) with friends and what a lovely surprise. The food was delicious, the place was cozy and the service was excellent. We all enjoyed our meals (even the non vegan ones) and the staff made us feel welcome.

Pros: Variety of vegan options, Warm service

Wow!

The girl gave us samples of the risotto balls as it was out first visit (defo won't be our last)

I had the risotto bbq cheese burger and my veggie gf had the chick'n salad.

Wow! One of the best burgers I've ever had and I've had some outstanding burgers since going vegan over a year ago.

Chick'n salad was "uhhh, amazing. Best salad I have ever had... Like EVER'' according to my girlfriend.

We even had the chocolate fudge cake after and that was very satisfying, particularly when I had to polish off most of the second slice.

They even provide sofas upstairs so you can recline in 'vegan food baby excess' 🤣

Would highly recommend. Do not pass up the opportunity to visit here.

EDIT: we came back next day 😂 and tried the Chorizo burger too and that was great too, perfect for those who like a bit more heat and spice in their food.

Pros: Good variety of options available on the menu, Friendly and helpful staff, Reasonable prices

Lovely staff and fantastic food

I was surprised by the amount of items on their (all-vegan) menu and found it rather hard to decide what to order. The lovely person behind the counter helped by letting us sample different things.
The "chicken" wrap with chips was great (but I doubt that any other decision I could have made would have turned out as less tasty). I’ll definitely be back to try more!

Tasty salad topped with risotto balls

Nice mix for the salad and the balls were nice and crisp on the outside. Good coffee and carrot cake as well.
Service was friendly. Visited late afternoon on a Friday evening when it was quiet and very relaxed. The downstairs seating is not the most comfortable, but the mezzanine level has comfy sofas but with low tables so great for sitting with coffee and cake.

Pros: All vegan, Friendly service , Tasty salad

Cons: Downstairs seating not great, Card only

good burgers

The burgers were very tasty. I tried the rice balls too, they were okay but I not as great as I expected them to be. The desserts looked very delicious but I haven’t tried them yet.

Bravi ragazzi

Good rice balls, I had a couple of different ones. Very happy with quality and taste. Right balance and balance between the crispy and the soft. Nice guys over there!

Delicious arancini balls

Lovely food, friendly staff, plus it’s still fairly new, so it doesn’t get busy at lunchtime, which is always a plus. I highly recommend their wraps and bowls. One of my favourite vegan fast-foods in London.

Cute staff, cute seating, lots of options!

Almost too many options to choose from. Breakfast, wraps, burgers, pots, desserts. The place is split level and you can sit atop the kitchen with sofas which is so cute. The server was SO welcoming and kind and the food was yummy.
