Fantastic - Edit
Lovely friendly place with great food, I wanted to try everything on the menu. The highlight was the caramel bao with ice cream and toasted nuts. Good drinks choice (nice beer and non alcohol things). Easy to get to from Liverpool on the train from Liverpool Central to New Brighton, and a lovely walk on the beach afterwards!

Sad to see it go🥲 - Edit
Visited Forked Up in the summer and sad to see that it’s going.
Read moreHere’s my review anyway!
Cool venue, we really enjoyed our night and it was worth the trip. Easy to order and the food came quickly.
We ordered the katsu curry loaded fries, the crispy ‘duck’ pancakes and ‘chicken wings’ in gochujang sauce. It was my first time trying crispy ‘duck’ and I was so impressed! My partner who had tried the original dish said this was so close and we both really enjoyed it. The loaded fries were good too. I enjoyed the gochujang chickn but as I’ve tried so many vegan versions of this, it wasn’t my fave. I think if I didn’t have anything to compare it to, I would have enjoyed it even more. But my partner really loved them!
Pros: Lots of options, Amazing crispy duck and pancakes, Great vibes
Cons: Closing🥲

A bitter sweet first trip to blackstock as I finally managed to make it down to try carleighs food however too late as she’s now closing , a truly remarkable woman who’s hard graft has served vegans well but this venue wasn’t for her , tucked away in the corner , easy to miss but when you try the food you’ll want to keep going back !

Tasty savory and sweet dishes - Edit
Forked up was a bit of a trek to get to at Blackstock (from city centre) but was worth it. The Katsu was great comfort food and the slutty nutty buddy bao was amazing.

Amazing! - Edit
I wish this place was closer! We had the “phat scran” sharebox because we wanted to try as many things as possible. It was unreal! Highlights were the duck and chicken wings.

When I say this is some of the best vegan food I have ever eaten I am not lying, everything was flavourful and perfectly made! The popcorn tofu was easily the star of the show for me! Would recommend.

Great junk food - Edit
Forked up is now at Blackstock market which is a cool, lively setting. There was live music & there’s also a comedy club onsite (ticketed). On street parking. We got some original wings and beef loaded fries. We also got milkshake from Dre’s desserts ordered in the app (was an option to add it to the forked up order). The food was great. Needs sauce really (which you can probably buy as an extra). The food came out on polystyrene trays which we were not happy with and that’s why it’s lost a point #Veganuary

Amazing scran - Edit
Forked Up never lets me down. The food is always delicious and always piping hot. Non-vegan family members also rave over the food. I've had the majority of the food on the menu from when they were selling from their own kitchen, the dodgy car park drop offs during covid, and then in different venues, before coming to settle in the dark kitchen. Everything has been delicious, but the blag wings are my absolute fave.

Vegan junk food with a twist - Edit
We were van-camping in West Kirkby and drove over to Birkenhead just to try the food - we didn't realise it was collection or delivery only, not a takeaway but we managed to order on the website and pick up. Absolutely delighted to see a separate gluten free menu. We tried lots of options (please excuse the terrible pics, the lights weren't working in the van so pics are with flash on!). My favourite was the katsu loaded fries. My partner loved the slutty bao for dessert! Highly recommended.

Wow! - Edit
We had such an amazing takeaway last night. Two of us had an oriental box and another had the bao bun variety box. We all loved every aspect of our choices. I particularly enjoyed the tofu, gyoza and bao (katsu pumpkin). Can’t wait to try more of the menu! Getting the oriental box was great way to try variety of options.

Really tasty, though not good value - Edit
We have got two take aways from here during the last six months and would do more often (probably every week) if it was better value for money. We feel like we are paying through the nose for a large quantity of rice/noodles with a small topping of absolutely delicious vegan food on top. The bao buns were my favourite thing, though again, the portion seemed small for the price.
Read morePros: An all vegan business, Food fresh and nicely presented, Not deep fried stodge
Cons: The ratio of carbs to tasty toppings is way off, Access to building is difficult, Hard to park nearby

Visited again (to the new location: Blackstock market). We got the platter so we could try a bit of everything. We were underwhelmed, to be honest. The food was very salty. It wasn't enough food for two people, but would be too much for one. I'd eat there if in the area for another reason, but wouldn't travel go out of my way. I really want to love all-vegan places, but this is just... OK.

Delicious food - bit pricey - Edit
I've visited forked up for a couple of years, I originally went when it took over Habibi and then when it was in Woodside. Although I prefer an indoor eating setting I've had takeout a few times here since it moved to takeaway only and the food is still as delicious as it was. It is a little bit more than I would usually pay so I tend to order when I receive a discount code, unfortunately this time I forgot to add it and already paid and was told when I got there they couldn't validate it which was fair enough I suppose. I probably wouldn't have ordered the blag wings otherwise though if I realised I was paying full price as they seem to have had a price increase and the portion is rather small for £5.90. I also ordered my usual, the salt and pepper bowl, very tasty but I have to agree with other reviews I've seen elsewhere that there is quite a bit of rice and at the end I'm always left with plain rice as there's not enough sauce and tofu for the dish. If they added in more sauce and a bit more tofu and increased some of their portion sizes then I feel the price could be more justified as their food is tasty.

Best vegan food for miles! - Edit
We have been to Forked Up a couple of times now and we're never disappointed. My partner is allergic to soy and our server was very knowledgeable and advised him the best meals to go for. I had the Got No Beef bowl and it was amazing. Partner had Korean Snide Chicken and loved it. We shared a plate of Togarashi Fries. I also had the Apple Pye Gyoza which was so good.
