Great food and vibes

Went for lunch after a workout and wanted something that wouldn’t make me feel guilty afterwards and powerplant was exactly what I needed. Was surprised by the presentation of the food and the even better taste.

No vegan dishes for breakfast

Came here because of the great reviews and the promise of vegan breakfast at the hotel. Unfortunately, not a single item on the breakfast menu is vegan.

Cons: No vegan dishes at beeakfast, This place is not vegan

They changed the menu in August 2023, from all vegan to a vegetarian Italian menu. A bit heartbreaking.

Fresh food

I visited Powerplant for lunch. The restaurant was not busy and the vibe was relaxed. I ordered the avocado on toast and I shared sweet potato fries with my husband. The avocado toast was super delicious. It tasted really fresh and it was topped with vegan feta (coconut yoghurt) and tomatoes. It was served with a Pesto on the side. Unfortunately the size of the portion was too small.. I would have preferred 2 slices of bread instead of 1 thin slice. Luckily we ordered the sweet potato fries, which tasted good.

The staff was friendly and they were totally fine with the fact that we only wanted to drink tap water.

Powerplant serves great and delicious food, but it is expensive considering the size of the portions.

Pros: Fresh food , Tasty avocado toast , Friendly staff

Cons: Expensive , Small portions

Surprised that you had the avocado toast. They told us it wasn’t vegan, because the bread had eggs

Worthy of a visit

Came here after walking through Camden. Loved the interior and the place really gave me a relaxed feel. They had some chill music playing and staff was super friendly. I had the avocado on toast which was really tasty and fresh. The quality of food deserves 5 stars, I was just a little let down by the size of the dish. I don't need to have huge portions, hate food waste obviously but a single slice of bread (see picture) is rather small. My wife and I even shared some sweet potato fries with it yet still it was not a whole lot. The fries were good though but a bit pricey, £5 for one bowl.

Good experience overall!

Pros: Tasty and fresh , Friendly staff , Food looks really good

Cons: A bit pricey considering the small portion sizes

Lovely veggie place

Lovely spot for dinner, opposite the Roundhouse. Menu wasn’t huge and sadly they didn’t have my first choice for dinner, but what we did have was delicious! Nice vibe and decent prices

Tasty food! Lots of options :)

Saw this when looking for somewhere to eat before a concert at the Roundhouse!

It was pretty decent food, I had the oyster skewers which were good and some hummus!
Would’ve loved a little more bread with the hummus but it was still lovely!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good location

Cons: Fairly pricey for what there is

This is important because it’s a hotel with a lorra vegan options in the lobby

Really friendly staff who listen to their customers. I was hungry and she advised the burrito which was really tasty. I had the Israeli dessert I’m sure even Rafael Museri would like.

Updated from previous review on 2021-10-13

Pros: All Vegan , Limited outside space , Vegan desserts

Cons: “Ironic” 80s music too loud with no customers , Limited outside space , During the day music should be low

Breakfast now has non vegan items

Breakfast is now run under the Selina brand (same kitchen, chefs, staff etc). Lunch and dinner is still 100% vegan.

friendly staff, okay food

Unfortunately the food contained too much oil/fat. We had the smokey aubergine, hummus (which was okay) and the pad thai.
When usually vegan food gives you energy and leaves you with a smile, this lunch didn’t quite do the job.
Sorry. Very friendly staff, but we didn’t enjoy the food.

Okay food, a bit pricey for what it’s worth

The food here was alright — I had the Arancini (which were quite tasty) and the Cheeseburger (didn’t enjoy this at all).

Large vegan restaurant which can host many people (if that’s something you need). Service was responsive and helpful.

Good menu

We sat outside to have breakfast. They have quite an extensive menu. I chose to have the tofu scramble which came with coconut yoghurt (interesting), sausages, tomatoes and avocado, and the tofu scramble of course. I ordered a soy coffee and a fresh orange juice but they were out of the oj. The coffee was fine. The breakfast was nice enough, the tofu scramble was very basic. My partner enjoyed the shakahuka.

Amazing food!

Oh man… this place was AMAZING. I work round the corner from this place and only tried it today, and am kicking myself I didn’t go sooner.

Really nice, cosy space with an amazing menu. So much choice, and it’s incredible to finally have a place not catering to vegan junk food (which is great but Camden is a little saturated with those kinda plant based junk food places these days…)

Staff were super pleasant and friendly. My friend & I went for the padrón peppers & corn ribs to start and we were astounded at the depth of flavour, particularly on the corn! We both went with the risotto for mains, and I’m not sure I’ve had such a delicious, creamy risotto this side of my plant based journey.

Absolutely wonderful place, nothing to fault and delicious food.

Pros: Great menu , Great staff , Great location

I didn't expect to have my socks knocked off when I ate here, but that's what happened. Loved the chickpea fritters and the tasty bowl I got with delicious tofu, edamame, beets, kale, and rice noodle. Super unexpected surprise.

Exciting vegan food

The food is amazingly tasty, rich flavours. I recommend choosing several of the small plates to share with others.

Wow!

Stumbled across this place while out and it was a brilliant find! The options here were varied without resorting to vegan junk food. Would happily bring omnivore friends here and know that they would love it. Hope to come back again soon...

Breakfast

Really tasty breakfast, the tofu with hollandaise was especially good. However, I'd call it a half English rather than a full English. There were no beans or toast, which are both pretty integral to the dish. I spent £12 on the breakfast and left still feeling a bit peckish.

Pros: Tasty, Good service

Cons: Expensive , Small portion

Great vegan food!

Such a good vegan restaurant! The aubergine and polenta fries are amazing and the bibimbap was a good choice too. Super great selection of foods, large portions and fair prices.
