Came back after becoming vegan and was delighted - Edit
This used to be a weekly trip for my friends and I. Recently, years after not having gone, and now being vegan I went back. Was absolutely delighted to enjoy the Hoagies just as much as😄

Best Bagels - Edit
Their vegan menu is literally the same size as their normal menu! They can make absolutely everything vegan! The portion sizes are great, you really get your money's worth as they're not shy to pack out your hoagie/bagel. Absolutely delicious, I'd highly recommend. They had vegan donuts I never got round to trying, so I'll have to give them a go next time:)

Big fat sannies - Edit
You definitely get your monies worth here! Was a bit gutted as they’d sold out of the vegan salt beef when I got there. However I still had a big tasty sandwich and lovely pickles on the side. Good selection of fizzy juice and some vegan muffins too.

Fantastic Veganised Sandwiches - Edit
NY Deli is a Cardiff institution and they've embraced vegan options by making their own fake meats in-house and creating an extensive vegan menu. They have hot and cold New York style sandwiches and bagels, plus hot dogs and crisps - the sandwiches themselves are pretty massive yet I've never not managed to finish one. They're just great really.
Read moreThe deli is in a new-ish location but it's just around the corner from the old place. Cardiff is full of chains but this is one of the few independent businesses still going strong.

Always banging. The best sandwiches in Cardiff. - Edit
Most (if not all) of the sandwiches they offer can be made vegan. The portions are huge and always tasty.

Has Vegan Options - Edit
After hearing much about this place and the weather being a bit drizzling we opted to check this place out. It is situated in High Street Arcade. They have a menu right outside which labels 5 options suitable for vegans. There is a huge bench right outside that could seat about 10 people. Inside there is space for about 15 people on the lower floor and 10 on the top floor.
Read moreThe staff were friendly and assured me that they handel the vegan food with care making sure they wash their hands well and keep the vegan food separate. We opted to order the Vegan Grinder and a carrot cake. The grinder was huge and enough to fill the both of us. It is quite affordable though I would not say that it is anything to rave about. The carrot cake was not very sweet it was the icing that I enjoyed. I however credit them for offering vegan options and will consider trying the other items on the menu.
The place is very meaty, guests' sandwiches that are almost filled with a whole pig, cow, eggs etc.
They make use of alot of packaging, plastic straws, cutlery, foil, paper plates which I find is not environmentally friendly. Even when sitting in you're served with disposable ware. So next time I'll have my containers handy to be served in.
Pros: Vegan options, Big portions
Cons: Serve meat, eggs and dairy, Use alot of packaging
