Best vegan Mexican bowl

I had the vegan option rainbow bowl with broccoli and sweet potato. The flavour was amazing and I can honestly say this was the best Mexican I ever had !

Great location, food not brilliant

We had a fantastic table looking out at the Thames where we could take in the Southbank vibe on a sunny afternoon. Unfortunately, both my friend and I found the food to be lacking in flavour and substance. We had some nachos, tacos, sweet potato, quesadillas, and frijoles. None of it had any wow factor, in fact it was all a bit dull. However, we enjoyed our fresh peppermint and ginger & lemon teas, and the service was very good.

Simply delicious!

Variety of vegan options and all of them delicious. You can't go wrong in this place! I tried the plantain tacos and the plant-based chicken & avocado tacos. Both great (also loved by my meat-eater friend!). Highly recommend it.

Pros: Variety of options

Cons: A little pricey

Delicious!

Loads of vegan options! Went for vegan nachos, a sweet potato rainbow bowl, then the homemade churros to finish! Cannot recommend enough!

Wahaca - 3 Stars

The food was super average and definitely didn't taste like authentic Mexican food, which I wasn't expecting to find in Europe anyway. This is a chain and, as such, I've tried a few locations and have had similar lackluster experiences.

Lots of vegan options clearly marked on the menu.

* Guac and chips were fine.
* Tostada was not great.
* I would not order the corn on the cob again.
* The little bean and rice wrap with vegan cheese was great.

A London treat

For me, Wahaca pretty much synonymous with good memories. From the moment you walk through the door you are welcomed by an incredible staff. What follows is some of the yummiest, most wholesome food you can find! I would definitely recommend checking it out. Be sure to try their vegan burrito!

Pros: Amazing vibe, Great staff, Decent choice of vegan options

Great Mexican chain

The vegan food and cocktails here are delicious.
They have a lovely outside seating area that overlooks the river.

I recommend the plantain tacos, guacamole and nachos and the sweet potato starter.

It is best to try and book a table here to avoid waiting around, as it usually gets busy on the weekends and evenings.

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Nice outside seating areas - overlooks the river

Cons: Slightly pricey , Usually busy so there is a waiting time
