OMG 😱 if you want dirty vegan food get here!

I’ve been to down the hatch a fair few times for drinks but have never eaten here. Damn wth was I thinking? I’m vegan heaven!! Recently tried woo tan scran for the very first time and I’ll certainly be getting it again! 100% plant based Chinese food now that’s what I’m talking about 🤤

Amazing!!

Menu is incredible. The poutine is to die for, the frickles and seitan wings with salt and pepper were also stand outs. Try the jäger sauce!!!

Pros: Staff, Menu, Speed

Cons: Expensive

Vegan junk food

Great comfort food dishes with good portions. Service was very thoughtful too. Not the healthiest place to eat but definitely recommended for a cheat meal!

Spoilt for choice

So hard deciding what to order here as they have so many options, from goan curry, to seafood chowder to all the classic junk food options like mac&cheese and huge burgers! Portions are large! When I visited they were also serving a menu from another vegan business ‘Woo Tan Scran’

Pros: Large portions, Wide variety of options

It’s been a while!

Haven’t visited in so long, had the seitan wings & kebabish and I devoured it! The staff are always lovely, the food was amazing years ago & it’s still amazing now! I’ll be back next week for my birthday 👌🏼

Pros: Plenty of options, Nice cozy setting, Staff were more than happy to help

Incredible vegan scran!

My partner and I popped in on our trip to Liverpool, and the food was incredible. We had seitan wings to start, then the salt and pepper burger and the mac and cheese burger. The frickles and calamari sides were just delicious.

Pros: Great service, Amazing flavours

And right down the hatch it goes!

A very unassuming place from the outside, but once inside it is quite amazing.
A great range of items on the daily menu, plus a Sunday roast and Moo Tan Scran. Check out my photographs and your get a good idea of what the have. And everything is made on the premises.
Celebrating 7 years in Liverpool - it's great!

Pros: Vegan , Variety , Bigger on the inside than the outside

The food was lovely but even though we booked a table, we felt rushed to leave, as they were busy and had walk ins waiting for tables.

Fantastic

Good food. The seitan chicken wings weren't fantastic and the risotto was maybe a bit over cooked, but I'm going back tomorrow for more food.

Pros: The range of options

Very good! Need to try more!

I don't often visit Liverpool and I really wanted to try this place. I was feeling a little under the weather so just got a small plate and cake but they were both very very good!
I'd make the trip back to try more!

down the hatch it went

we had absolutely delicious burgers at down the hatch last night. there was a great selection of food and everything was vegan by default. the staff were lovely and the atmosphere was charming. it's currently not wheelchair accessible, although I believe this is temporary. the food came quickly and the portion sizes were really generous - we ended up taking our sides home for a midnight snack.

Pros: great cocktail selection, generous portion sizes

Cons: not great beer selection

Totally vegan with veggie options

Wow
Really friendly helpful team, happy to explain menu. All was vegan but if you didn’t want vegan cheese you could have regular cheeses. We had cocktails to start- both were fabulous, then followed with 3 tapas starters. Garlic mushrooms with pita bread, dirty Patatas bravas with sausage & Seitan wings with jäger sauce. All great flavours & served with salad and beetroot slaw. We had a burger royale & moussaka for mains- both delicious. Finally had a Winter C Rum Ble as a cocktail dessert- pear liqueur , cinnamon, vegan cream, digestives - 🌟🌟🌟

Disappointed

Having wanted to visit for a long time, I visited for a much anticipated Sunday lunch.
Unfortunately, the service was really below par and the food was average at best. The cauliflower in the cauliflower cheese was black and tasted burnt, the kale was tough and the cookie dough didn't materialize before I had to leave. I was there three hours and they only managed to eventually serve one course during that time.
Very disappointed, especially as I'd made over a hundred mile round trip to eat there.
If I'm in Liverpool again, I'll give them another try in a much smaller group, as they don't seem able to cope with large group bookings but I certainly won't make a special trip just to go there again, sadly.

Pros: It's vegan

Cons: Wait time, Service , Food

Great Selection!

We enjoyed a few of the burgers and some sides. The vegan creamy mash was amazing! Feels so rare to get vegan mash on a menu! Katsu burger was also tasty! Messy to eat, but highly enjoyable!

Always a great experience

I love the vegan mac and cheese. Mac and cheese was always my comfort food before I became fully vegan and I always crave it. Down the hatch have been a blessing with their wonderful vegan mac and cheese. My cravings are now satisfied.
Their other food is also great. Fries are always a solid 5/5 for me.
My go-to place for eating out with friends.

😋

dth burgers always hits the spot (especially the mac n cheese one), not the best fries but with the jäger glaze on the side it’s absolutely banging 🤤 love the refill soft drinks for 2.50 as well

Pros: nice staff, cheap refill (soft) drinks

Vegan junk food with plenty of choice

Good variety of options to get your vegan junk food fix. Portion size is good and pretty good value for money.

Pros: Choice, Taste, Portion size

Cons: Sometimes service could be a little better

Amazing starter basic burger main

Had am amazing starter but the burger main was a bit of a let down. Had really high hopes for a veggie place but I felt it was quite basic and could get in a mainstream restaurant

So good

This place was so trendy and neat. They specialize in junk food and have a decent variety. Some items can be made with real cheese so be mindful when ordering. The portions were large and the food was flavorful.
