Lovely vegan roast - Edit
I went along with the Vegan Edinburgh Meetup to try the Village Bistro's vegan roast. It was brilliant. We had healthy portions of vegan loaf, carrots, peas, roast potatoes, gravy and Yorkshire puddings. It was delicious, and the service was excellent - nothing was too much for Paula and the team.

Good option in the area - Edit
Stopped by for lunch since it's conveniently just a 20-minute walk away. It's great to have a nearby option, especially one that makes an effort to include vegan choices.
Read moreWe opted for the smashed avo panini, which came with a side salad, crisps, and slaw. Despite mentioning my vegan preference multiple times, I wasn't entirely sure if the slaw was vegan-friendly, though it arrived in a separate container, which was thoughtful.
I ordered the chili with baked potato but received chili with rice instead. While the mix-up wasn't ideal, I didn't raise the issue and found the meal satisfactory. The chilli was a little bit old school, but the dish was hearty and provided a healthy choice.
In terms of improvements, the menu could benefit from some adjustments, perhaps incorporating za'atar or chili flakes into the avo smash. While the food was decent, it could be improved easily and make it even more appealing to return visit.
Pros: Friendly staff, Clear vegan options
Cons: Options too safe.

Hi
Read moreThanks for your advice and normally the avo has crushed chilli so I will follow that up.
We are constantly evolving regarding or vegan menu and always an option on our weekday 'plat du jour'.
