Lovely range of vegan food - Edit
Most food is vegetarian , including a fairly decent range of desserts. It’s definitely not cheap but you don’t leave hungry as there are so many options ! Allergens well labelled as well

Nice food. Expensive. Not standardly accessible - Edit
This is from a visit in the Spring of 2018
Read moreFood was great,
Relaxed and spacious atmosphere, large bright veranda in the back.
Expensive though.
As to accessibility: there are several steps to get in, and we did not see a sign or notice that we could ask for a ramp or lift. Fortunately I can still walk so I got up up and my husband carried my wheelchair inside.
When we wanted to leave the restaurant, we asked whether there was a possibility to get out another way - whether there is an accessible entrance? (because it seemed strange to me that there is an accessible toilet on ground floor, but no accessible entrance?). After having asked some staff, a lady who seemed to be the manager came and asked how I got in ('must have been a miracle?') and said that they had to get out and install a lift (and was seemingly a bit annoyed). So we just left as we came in, I got up and my husband carried the wheelchair out.
A pity that it is not standardly accessible, and some help would have been appreciated.
Pros: variety in buffet, spacious, nice atmosphere
Cons: not standardly accessible

Excellent flavours - Edit
A great find. The restaurant is chic, very clean and tastefully decorated. The food is served from one large oval servery - hot on top, cold on the bottom with desserts at one end. You take a plate, stack it with all the tasty looking food and then take it to the bar for weigh and pay. It’s a lot more chic than it sounds! All foods labelled with a V (the majority of them) are vegan. My plate came to £12.60 and I was very satisfied after my meal. The foods and flavours are varied and there wasn’t one duff serving. The bar has a good range of drinks - all types. I would definitely come here again.

Posh meal out tbh - Edit
My plate came to about what I expected for healthy, fresh, pay-by-weight food but still stung when I paid. There was a lot of choose from and they had happy hour on whilst there. Result!! Nice waitresses and always busy. Plus they give out free stuff!!
Read morePros: Healthy, Posh, Nice place to visit
Cons: Expensive, Almost too healthy

Great food ! - Edit
My partner had tried Tibits in Switzerland so while in London we had to come here. The food is great - such a wide selection of dishes and all at a reasonable price. I would recommend to anyone regardless of whether they are vegan or not.

Quite nice - Edit
Restaurant had nice food and wide variety of options, but food was a bit heavy.
Read moreThere were no set menu, only food buffet and measuring plates.
The desserts were lovely, they had vegan Victoria sponge cake, chocolate cake, toffee cake and lemon cake (DEFINITELY worth-it)

Tasty food but expensive - Edit
Food was good but at this price it would be more of a treat than an every day lunch.

New Tibits - as good as the original - Edit
If you happen to be doing anything bankside (the other side of the Thames from the center of London), this is a great vegetarian place to eat. As Tibits had mentioned a while ago on its website, they've increased the percentage of vegan dishes, and this was true. I've been a fan of Tibits for years, and was delighted that there is a new branch. It is the same food as the original branch, so enjoy! For those who are not yet familiar with Tibits - it is a buffet meal, charged by weight, with a very large variety of dishes, hot and cold.

free birthday cake - Edit
Came here with friends on a Saturday evening for a birthday dinner. The restaurant wasn’t busy (maybe because it opened only recently) which was great for us. Food is presented buffet style and each dish is clearly labelled. Concept is 'pay by weight', which means that you likely pay more than you expect and it makes me overthink my selection as some veggies are simply heavier, but not necessarily more expensive at origin. Particularly good cold selection but also multiple vegan warm dishes. Birthday girl/boy gets a free slice of birthday cake and the server even delivered it with a birthday candle. Will be back.

good food, highish price - Edit
Great food- clear markings and many options. Felt expensive for "premade" food but with the benefit of eating right away it's nice when you are really hungry!

very nice! - Edit
I had a great lunch here. It's a buffé altough you pick your plate and then way it, so you pay per 100/gram. I think it was a great way to get rid of food waste - at all you can eat buffés people tend to get a bit to excited and take to much food which then enda up getting thrown away.
Read moreAlso the food was fresh and tastefull, various dishes, sallads and sauces to choose from!
Pros: pay per 100/ gram, cozy
Cons: not all vegan

A great addition to the London veg*an scene. - Edit
Inspired location for the new branch. Until now there has been a limited choice around Bankside. Really close to Tate Modern and just over the Millennium Bridge from St Paul's so should be handy for sightseers.
Read moreLarge windows make it bright and welcoming. A lot of care has been taken with the decor. I loved the beautiful painted flowers on some walls.
The staff were friendly and explained the food boat concept. You pay by weight (if you have a big appetite watch out because you can spend quite a bit). Vegan options and allergens are noted on the labels. I always enjoy the salads at their other London branch and there were lots of my favourites plus a few new choices (the artichokes were delicous).
Hot and cold drinks and cakes are available from the bar. Puddings from food boat (the vegan stick toffee pudding is made with dates and was my favourite).
Pros: Location, Vegan options clearly labelled, Vegan sticky toffee pudding
Cons: Not all vegan
