You. Must. Go. Here.

I've been enjoying WJ food for years so not sure why I'm only just leaving them a review now.

I was there recently for my hen do and the non vegans said the burgers were the best they've ever had!

Pros: The wings 👌, Everything is so colourful

Cons: It's in another county 😫

I absolutely love this place!

I’ve been to wholesome junkies a few times and the food is amazing. A group of us went there recently to celebrate my birthday. The only reservation I do have is we waiting an hour just for our drink order. But after that our food came pretty quickly.

Pros: Tata tots, The decor, Cheeze burger

Cons: Waiting an hour for our drink order

Amazing sunday roast! 🤤

Today we had a minted ‘lamb’ Sunday roast with gravy, Yorkshire pudding, veg, and roasties. My partner had a gorgeous truffle burger that he loved too. The flavour of the ‘lamb’ was stunning, so flavoursome, deep and minty. We also shared a sticky toffee pudding which was sweet and fluffy!

Pros: Strong flavours in the food , Lots of options , Lovely team

Cons: Slightly small portions

Unbelievably good

By far the best vegan food I've had. Even my partner who isn't vegan rated it highly.
Full of flavour and lots of choices.
Fries are amazing!
Great pre show meal if you're going to the ao arena.

Pros: Flavour, Portion size , Vibe!

Best vegan burgers I've ever had

This has to be one of the best vegan burgers spots I've ever visited.

Such a nice range of burgers with different patties available. All the sides looked incredible. We had the chicken bites and they were the closest to actual fried chicken we've ever had.

Was a lovely spot, cosy and the staff were lovely. Highly recommend!

Perfect junk food

First time here and will absolutely be back!

Perfect for junk food junkies! The choice on the menu is great and although some have mentioned that it is a bit pricey, it certainly is worth every penny. Service and the staff are fantastic too. What a great little place. A hidden gem.

Pros: Menu choices, Service and staff , Hidden gem off the beaten track

Hits the spot

Amazing vegan restaurants. The food is absolutely amazing. The only downside I would say probably a little more expensive than the norm.

Pros: Delicious

Cons: Expensive

Best Vegan Restaurant in Manchester

I was looking online for a good vegan restaurant for brunch and thru Happy Cow I found this place. It was a 10min drive from the city centre and so worth it. This place is so cute, the staff were lovely but the food….😳 So good!!!
There’s loads of food to choose from but if you’re having brunch you gotta have the WJ Big Breakfast. The variety will send your tastebuds in ecstasy…
Oh and the Sticky Toffee pudding with custard… Yeah you need that in your life too😉

Pros: Food, Presentation, Cozy Environment

Delicious brunch and burgers

I can't wait to try the roast dinners here. If the brunch and burgers are anything to go by I'm in for a treat. Been here a couple of times. Nice staff and service. It's a little bit pricey but worth every penny for a treat.

Good meal

Loved the Sunday roast. Burgers were not a hit for me, too oily and weird tasting burger sauce.

Tasty and worth a visit, but it's pricey

Great atmosphere and cool venue. If you like burgers, you'll be spoilt for choice here. The truffle burger was delicious, and the chips were incredible, but it's very expensive.

Pros: Tasty burgers , Lots of choice , Gorgeous looking venu and nice vibe

Cons: Overpriced - £16 for a burger with no fries, £1.45 for tiny bit of Ketchup that should be free

Banging roast dinner

Took my non vegan friend here for a Sunday roast dinner and we both loved it. The Yorkshire pudding was immense and a great selection of veggies and gravy to go with the roast potatoes, sausages, cranberry sauce and stuffing ball.

Only a very small venue. Close to Manchester Arena. Staff were nice. Serves all kinds of burgers and loaded fries too.

OK - but nothing special

The best things about this place are the decor the friendly staff and the desserts, which are tasty but a bit small for the price.

The food is OK, but nothing special. We’ve been here a couple of times in thee last year and both times the burgers was only lukewarm and drenched in sauce.
The overkill on the sauce not only makes the burgers impossible to eat as intended, but also cools down the fried filling, reducing the comfort and flavour of the burgers.
The brioche buns also could be hotter and (more) toasted to stop the burgers becoming a tepid, soggy mess. #Veganuary

Pros: Nice decor, Friendly staff, Tasty desserts

Cons: Tepid burger drenched in sauce, Sloppy & soggy burger, impossible to eat

Creative and delicious - but prices are often outrageous

The food is great. I've been three times. I'm yet to be disappointed in the food (except fries, see below). Biscoff cheesecake one of the best I've ever had - vegan or otherwise. I've previously had the Korean tofu and duck bao small plates - both were amazing. Then the Jaffa cake cake - the orange bit is exactly how I remember Jaffa cakes. 5* all round so far.

The prices are outrageous. £12 and usually considerably more for a burger with no fries is shameless. You could literally get two vegan burgers, two fries and two drinks for that in Maccies. I did order fries, which were simultaneously burned, cold, and soggy - and at £4.25 a total ripoff. Add another £1.45 if you want a tiny pot of ketchup. £14 for breakfast is an abomination.

Location is slightly out of town and slightly ghetto - Covent Garden pricing in a backstreet railway arch.

Pros: Creative and delicious food, Cute space with a good vibe, Biscoff cheesecake omg

Cons: Prices can be outrageous e.g. £14 for breakfast, £12 for a burger with no fries FFS, Slightly out of town and slightly ghetto location

Great food, friendly staff

Went just before Christmas for the Sunday roast - just before a gig at the arena which is just over the road. Small, busy place, lovely food and friendly staff. All vegan, so what's not to love :-)

Pros: Great food, Friendly staff

Cons: Quite a small place - book in advance
