Some yummy vegan options! - Edit
It was lovely to have a day out with some vegan options available onsite. We had pies for lunch, which were excellent and came with a good amount of vegetables. The only thing was that it wasn't completely clear if all the veg being served was vegan. When I asked, the member of staff didn't actually know what vegan meant, and I had to explain that sometimes carrots etc are glazed with butter for example. Meanwhile the queue was building up and I felt a bit embarrassed, when it should have been a straight forward yes or no. We were a little disappointed not to find any vegan cakes, but did enjoy a pasty at the end of the day. Overall, pretty good!
Read morePros: Tasty food, Reasonably priced, Decent portions
Cons: No vegan cakes!, Not very clear labelling of vegan options, Staff not knowing what vegan means

Lovely to have a day out and be able to eat yummy vegan food ON SITE - Edit
We ate in the seating area between the biomes, grabbing delicious vegan pies with all-vegan sides from The Eden Kitchen, a pasty from Eden Pasty in my mum's case, and a beetroot daal from the Vegan Kitchen (which may be a temporary winter thing while the Core Café is closed - not sure) in my dad's case.
Read moreThe pies from Eden Café in particular were delicious. We thought 8.95 for a pie and three big portions of sides was quite fair. The daal was less good value. Pasty for 5 quid is pricy but standard for these places and not more than the meat one.
We were told that the Med Kitchen will do all pizzas with vegan cheese even though this is not advertised, and they also do a lovely vegan carbonara dish.
Very impressed with all the changes despite a disappointing visit for vegans back in 2012. I still think even more could be done - for example adding a carbon footprint indicator on the menu - but the improvements are very welcome and we will be back with our year-long passes.
Really made vegans feel welcome in a place that should have always been a natural habitat for people who tend to be far more active and doing far more for the environment than most!

Pros: All eating venues seem to offer good vegan options, Eden Kitchen's pies with vegan sides were great, Open seating area so groups can mix and match
Cons: Could always offer more vegan options :)

Loads of choice - Edit
We ate at the world kitchen and had the Indian wrap and the Korean jackfruit wrap, with a side of corn and cassava chips. Later we had a piece of choc and raspberry cake in the invisible world. I liked that there was mainly half and half vegan to meat options- so it felt like vegan options instead of meat options, rather than aswell as.
Read morePros: Lots of option, Cakes

Fresh and delicious! - Edit
Several vegan options in the “link” cafe between rainforest and med biomes. Cassava, slaw style salad, jackfruit wrap & cauliflower wrap (chutney has dairy, ask for one to be made without this). Dairy-free ice cream including mint choc chip upstairs!!!
Read morePros: Very knowledgeable chef was able to help us, Hot and fresh, Mint chocolate chip dairy-free ice cream!!!

A few vegan options - Edit
Had food in the Eden kitchen food court, didn't really see much food labelled vegan, I had the jackfruit wrap which was a little too spicy for me. They did however have teas and coffee with plant based milk and a few vegan cakes!
Read morePros: Cakes and plant based milks for teas and coffee

Some vegan options - Edit
We had a Jamaican bowl with jackfruit, rice and salad. Everything was quite nice although a bit too spicy and unfortunately we didn’t manage to have any of the vegan pastry as they run out by 12 o clock. But we had a really nice cake

Cons: Not enough vegan pastry , Most of the vegan food was spicy

Some pretty decent vegan options! - Edit
Great to see that in just a couple of years between my last visit to the Eden Project, they’ve added tonnes not the vegan options to the menu!
Read moreWe were a bit spoilt for choice, but in the end went for a burrito (that came with vegan cheese as standard!), with a super zingy salad and some big fat cassava fries! All polished down with a clearly marked as vegan Cornish cider 😉
Also had a lovely coffee on arrival, they have one or two plant based milks, but it would be great to see more options like coconut or oat!
Pros: Lots of vegan choice, They even have vegan cheese!, Even vegan labelled cider ;)
Cons: Would love to see more plant based milks

Vegan Pasty ! - Edit
I'm not sure if we drove all the way to the Eden Project looking forward more to seeing the amazing Biomes or their vegan Cornish Pasty. The Biomes are definitely worth the drive but for their pasty I'd gladly walk a long way !
Read moreI should add that they do have a few other vegan items on the menu - we just didn't really make a note of them as were fixated on the pastys...
Updated from previous review on 2018-09-15
Pros: Vegan Pasty - say no more
Cons: They don't do home delivery :(

Amazing food! - Edit
We spent two days at the Eden Project and were so impressed by the vegan options available. We ate Cornish pasties, sorbet, beetroot and carrot fritters with huge choice fresh salad (grown there!), banana cake and there was always soya milk available wherever we stopped for a drink. The food was delicious and I would have loved to have tried the burritos and tacos too; maybe next time! As far as food goes, this has been our best family day out. We thought the food was fairly priced too, even if the drinks were a little expensive. There are taps all around to fill up water bottles which is great.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Delicious fresh food, Reasonable prices
Cons: Drinks are expensive (take a refillable bottle!)
