Sadly the physical location has closed- still doing take out from home kitchen.

Really delicious gourmet burgers, hot dogs, cakes, ‘sausage’ rolls etc. Does ‘fish’ and chips on a Friday night. Entirely vegan.

Pros: Lovely people, Delicious food and milkshakes , Entirely vegan

Cons: None

Amazing Food! Lovely Family 😉

As a family of 5 embarking on our new vegan adventure we found this little gem with a quick search on google. The food was amazing and we also had a great chat with the owner who was more than happy to give advice, opinions and help for us newbies. We would highly recommend giving this place a go!

Yum!!

Friendly place! Tried their american pancakes with blueberries, banana, maple syrup and vegan vanilla ice cream. I could have had another plate of it, it was amazing!! I wish they were on the bottom floor so more people could see the restaurant and be interested to go in!

My son really enjoyed his biscoff dairy free shake, I was impressed by the vegan choices and they make their own mayo in house which is delicious

Fabulous vegan diner 🍔🥤

My first visit to Shakers Dairy Free today was amazing and so friendly. My burger was freshly made and delicious, as was the key lime pie shake which was to die for! The only difficulty was which ones to chose, as they all sounded so good up there on the menu board. The diner is fun, bright and very clean, and has a well stocked shop too full of vegan goodies. Thanks so much, I ‘ll be back soon! Don’t hesitate to give it a go, you’ll love it too! 🥒🍋🍅🤗

Amazing food and treats. Lovely welcoming staff and very reasonable prices. Me and my partner can't avoid popping in when we are in Colchester. We're working our way through the milkshakes.

Cool spot

Had a yummy shake and a burger. Both were very tasty, and the service was very friendly. However it’d be nice if the shakes where served in reusable ware if people are staying in instead of single use plastic. Next time I’d make sure to bring my keepcup.

Pros: All vegan, Lots of choice, Awesome decor

Cons: Single use plastic for milkshakes
