Tasty but quite expensive - Edit
All the food was soo tasty and the mocktails are truly amazing. Sadly the dishes are quite expensive for what you get.

Big Flavor, Small Portions - Edit
We had a reservation for Friday night at 6:30pm. We were the first ones in the restaurant although it started to slowly fill but certainly not to full capacity, especially considering it was a Friday night. Between two of us, we ordered and shared 2 starters (oyster mushroom calamari and sticky tempeh maki), 3 small plates (arancini, Hungarian stew, and cauliflower tacos), and a small side (Mac and cheese with chorizo). The flavor of every dish was fantastic. We especially enjoyed the 2 starters. It was also impossible to tell that the Mac and cheese is vegan! The flavor was certainly there for all dishes but the price and portion of food does not match. We got two non-alcoholic drinks, their blackberry mint and strawberry Basil homemade lemonades and they were both great, but again, small potion considering half the glass is filled with ice. Service was friendly, cozy atmosphere. Overall we paid £50, which seemed a bit much for what we got. If you’re in the area, definitely give it a try but we probably won’t be returning soon!

Disappointing - Edit
The venue itself is lovely and the service was good. The food was disappointing and not that good. Quite pricey as well.

Small plates to share - Edit
Appetizers, Small Plates and Sides, plus desserts and cocktails - both alcoholic and low- or non-alcoholic drinks. For two people, order four to six dishes. We had five, and it was plenty: the Cajun cauliflower tacos were very good; the Hungarian ragout was very tasty; the broccoli was excellent, but the tofu should have been warm too; the mushroom tacos were good; and the root vegetables could have been cooked a bit longer. I’d like to try some of the other dishes soon. Many imaginative dishes.

Nice but not quite as good as had hoped for - Edit
We had dinner at TV Saturday just gone, we ordered 2 starters, 2 mains and 2 sides (one large) all dishes were good but only 3 of the 6 shone which was a bit #dissapointing. If i lived locally I'd go again but i don't and don't think it's worth going out of my way for

I would rate less if I could - Edit
The mains were ok but the starter and deserts were shockingly bad. So tiny and overpriced for unset deserts. Not offered any type of compensation and the service was bad. Will never be returning here and bitterly disappointed.

Great food and service - Edit
We went here for brunch on a Sunday and the amount of options they had was amaaazing we struggled to make up our minds. We settled on the tacos and he house breakfast. They were very well cooked, tasted amazing, and came quickly. They also had something they called tofu bacon which tasted so much better than the bacon replicas you can buy in the supermarket.
Read moreOne of the reasons for going here was that they said they were dog friendly and they definitely were. As soon as we entered they came over with a giant smile on their face and greeted the dog amaaazingly. We sat by the window and with our asking they bought across a blanket for her to sit on and a water bowl and gave her more attention. She definitely enjoyed the experience as much as we did 😀
Over all a great place and well priced.
Pros: Lots of vegan options , Great atmosphere , Very dog friendly.
Cons: None

Great food - not sure about the sharing concept with small portions - Edit
had no reservation on a Friday night at peak time- 7pm and was only able to be accommodated on the outside terrace and had to order at the bar- it suited us as it was noisy indoors with a full restaurant. So it looks like reservations are essential here.
Read moreWe had not fully understood the concept of the restaurant from the menu but the concept is the you order many dishes to share. The portion sizes are very small which is puzzling if they are to be shared- why not make them bigger so everyone can sample? As a party of two we ordered one starter and one main - the fried oyster mushrooms and the Dahl. Both were very good quality but minute portions. We then had a desert each which were described as 'normal' size but we found them on the small size- lemon cheesecake and white chocolate mousse - both were very good. We had an apple juice and a small bottle of fizzy water. All together 30 pounds- which is pricy for one starter one main and two desserts. The service was outstanding- very quick to get food and pleasant staff.
Pros: Excellent food, nice to have outdoor seating available , Service was very quick
Cons: very small portions , just don't get the concept of sharing, expensive

Even the non-vegans loved it - Edit
I went here with 5 non-vegans and we all decided to share multiple dishes. Every dish was amazing and received really high praise from my non-vegan friends. Each dish had amazing flavour - I’ve honestly never tasted tofu as good as I did here. The bao buns were incredible too.

Good food, small portions - Edit
I thoroughly enjoyed everything we ate, but the portions are quite small for the price. The white chocolate martini is unreal too.

Delicious tapas style meal - Edit
It was hard to choose from a very interesting menu but we decided to share the quesadilla, tofu with chickpeas (can’t remember the name!), mushroom calamari with samphire and a fresh watermelon salad - we found this was plenty for two. All full of flavour and beautifully cooked. A mojito and a strawberry gin concoction completed a delicious vegan meal.

This is one of my favourite restaurants of all time. The menu changes regularly and is fully vegan. It's all small plates which are great for sharing. The team are all very nice and knowledgeable and the atmosphere is fab. Added bonus - the playlist is always amazing and it's dog friendly.

incredible - Edit
i had the leek and bacon arancini with maple mustard which was just sublime, i’m still thinking about them! and also shared the dhal, korean bao buns and the calamari. i would definitely recommend the crispy little oyster mushroom calamari with samphire as a bite to start or have alongside the rest! i took my parents including my dad who happily eats veggie food but still prefers to go out somewhere he can have meat if he wants or at least some cheese and we both couldn’t stop raving about the food
Read morePros: range of yummy vegan cuisine, appeals to non vegans, tapas style small plates means you can try lots
Cons: cant choose just one big dish (personally fine)
