Filling sunday roast but a bit bland - Edit
I visited karamel for the first time for brunch and I enjoyed the food but it was a bit bland. The tofu wellington roast portion size is so huge I couldn’t finish the plate!
Read moreI also had an apple crumble and even that was big enough for two people!
I saw another customer getting the margarita pizza and that looked fab so next time I visit I think I will have that!
Also the prices are fair for the portion sizes. Personally I think they should make the dishes a tiny bit smaller and make them a tad cheaper to reduce food waste.

Pros: Filling with generous portion size, Friendly staff, 100% Vegan
Cons: Food a tad bland, Decor a bit dated (has a high school canteen vibe)

Great place, wonderful staff - Edit
We turned up on an evening when they had an event, so the menu was a screenshot of a handwritten note. They were very helpful to provide gf options and we chose a thali to share between two. Just as well as it was huge and really tasty . I would definitely visit again.

Nice roast and vibe - Edit
We visited for a Sunday roast and a jazz concert. The roast was good with a very full plate of trimmings and gravy! The vibe is very casual and relaxed so it was very nice to enjoy the vegan food and drink while watching high-quality music.

Amazing vegan Sunday roast - Edit
I went for the Wellington option. It was superb. The Sunday roast is as good as I remember (I last visited about eight years ago). My son had chick’n burger which he enjoyed. The staff are lovely & the vibe is obviously good. It’s impossible to fault this place.

Good Sunday Roast - Edit
Great Sunday roast! The staff were excellent. My brother and I each got the Almond Wellington and Chicken and Mushroom Pie roasts to share - I preferred the pie, but both were good, really liked the red cabbage! Also got the pancakes and the salted caramel cake - both excellent. Reasonable prices (£15 for roast, £5 for dessert, £8 for large wine)

Excellent Sunday roast and other wholesome vegan food - Edit
After a long hiatus Karamel restaurant is now open on Sundays for Sunday Roast as well as other wholesome vegan food.
Read moreWe went there last Sunday and had the Sunday roast. Exceptionally good, and very filling.
They also have desserts including apple cake with custard.
There's a bar for those want alcohol.
Very happy to recommend.

We understand that they also serve food on evenings when there is music or another event at the venue.

Very disappointing - Edit
Being vegan and having recently moved to the area, I was so excited to try this and it was so disappointing. We had an Indian thali and a Thai thali and this was the worst Indian and Thai food (or vegan food) I ever tasted. Poor choice of ingredients, no understanding of what Indian or Thai or professional cooking is, poorly cooked. I think the chef or whoever cooks the food needs training and support. Also the restaurant could do with tidying tables. It was a bit of a mess the day we came in.
Read moreI really hate writing bad reviews but this was bad and I would only give one star if allowed to. I hope this was an one off bad experience and other people will be luckier. I m worries that non vegan people will go there and think all vegan food is awful after that. Please please take feedback into consideration.
Pros: Vegan options
Cons: Very poorly cooked

Delicious! - Edit
Great pizza and pasta with delicious vegan parmesan to top it off. Menu had a range of pizzas, burgers and specials dishes so there was a good variety to choose from.
Read moreStaff were friendly and the vibe was chilled, set in a community arts space with stage, theatre and artwork on display. Hosts events too which are worth checking out.
Definitely worth travelling to go to even if you don't live in Wood Green.
Pros: Friendly staff, Community arts vibe
Cons: Drinks were expensive

We found this place by accident and were VERY happily surprised! They have a great selection of food and sweet treats as well as a fully stocked vegan bar. We had some MASSIVE burgers and chips and he gave us some free tasters of the cheeses that they use for their cheese board. All were superb! All the staff were so nice and all really helpful.

Bangers & Mash - Edit
We tried out their Sunday menu the other day and were pleasantly surprised by the portion size. Great vegan sausages with wonderful gravy and mash which kept us full the whole afternoon. It was a bit pricier than what I'm used to, but why not treat yourself to a good weekend lunch every once in a while?

Underwhelming - Edit
I'd been looking forward to finally eating here but I was really underwhelmed by the food. I could have cooked a better vegan roast dinner at home, the roast potatoes were poorly done and it felt like a school dinner. Overpriced for what it was.
