Alkaline Kitchen in Middlesbrough

The food here is very innovative and nourishing. Highly recommend! The staff are wonderful and absolute geniuses for creating such tasty vegan food.

This was one of the best meals I have ever had in a restaurant. I will certainly be back there. We can safely takes visitors with us. Top marks to all who conceived and deliver such excellent food.

food is always, always amazing and I have no idea how they make healthy food taste as indulgent as junk food. Always greeted with a cheery smile. if we lived closer I'd be in here every week!

Order was delivered on time but sat nav took driver to wrong address and I had to go looking for him

I only went because my son is vegan and I wasn't expecting much. But I was proved very wrong. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh and superbly presented

Brilliant service yet again from store and delivery driver

Great food and service and delivery driver was polite and pleasant, delivered quickly

Lovely place, great menu. We've been several times and they're consistently excellent. We always get cookies to take away afterwards.

I've been looking for a restaurant /take away that serves healthy food like this for a while and I'm so pleased that I found Alkaline Kitchen. The take away arrived quickly and the food was delicious, as was the smoothie. It's good to know there is a place to eat that genuinely supports healthy eating.

Finally some healthy delicious and filling vegan food in boro <3 <3

Delicious food, generous portion sizes, and full of flavour. Will be back!

This is becoming a bit of a habit!

Friendly staff, inexpensive and delicious food !

This meat eater's first time at a vegan restaurant! I was a bit sceptical and curious going in but the food blew my mind! Really enjoyed the food! Definitely would come back again!

Outstanding food as always! So glad I can now get it delivered to my doorstep. Very nutritious, fresh ingredients with so much flavour and variety in every dish. The collagen booster smoothie will always be my favourite drink ever!

Really delicious and healthy. All natural vegetables and fruit smoothies, nothing that contains anything nasty. Wish there were more healthy food places like this!

Food was amazing, the best Nachos I have had. The Acai Bowl was a delight. Service was great and atmosphere fitted the bill. I will definitely return.

First time I visited and was shocked at how delicious the food was!!!!

Joyous place with great vegan food.

I love this place! Great variety on the menu. Smoothies are delicious. Salads are fresh and tasty. Incredible flavours and excellent customer service 🌱

Incredibly good food. Having just moved the area I am trying out loads of different options and AK is certainly top of the list in terms of taste and value for money. The portions are filling and I honestly feel great after my visits. Proper soul food. Caveat, I eat a meat heavy diet, so for anyone who is put off by the Vegan label don't be. Just pop in, order the BBQ tacos or Thai wrap, close your eyes and take a bite, you'll be a regular in no time. Oh and try the cookies, possibly the best I've tasted.

They made me a delicious Thai Buddha bowl to takeaway even though they were just about to close. Lovely mix of flavours.

Love this place , fantastic plant based recipes ,best place in the Boro .Lovely chilled atmosphere with very pleasant staff . Very generous portion sizes as well , enjoyed it so much I now get the meal prep so I can enjoy the delicious meals at home as well .Keep up the good work .

Lovely food! So healthy and not short of flavour 😋 Great choice of music and very reasonably priced! Will definitely be returning! X

Great food, friendly staff. Really well presented dishes, good soul food without any meat alternatives which is great to see where a lot of vegan and non vegan restaurants lean into the ease of alternative products. Everything appears and tastes home made. I had the burger and nachos. Would have loved space for a dessert but the portions are very generous. I was surprised that the side salad the burger came with was as satisfying as it was - I'm a 100kg gym going 6'1 fella so saying a salad was tasty and satisfying goes miles toward explaining how good this place is! I also had the milkshake which was lovely Would definitely return if I find myself in Middlesbrough again.

The most amazing healthiest food I have ever eaten and really friendly people! I love it :).

the food has literally changed my life!!!! I have so many issues with digestion and gluten intolerance it's so hard to find anything I can eat - and then anything I can eat that's actually nice and not ultra processed/unhealthy! I'm full all of the time don't wanna snack, energy! My digestive system is working again! My sleep quality has improved so much it's amazing. It just goes to show you are what you eat 😍 I have eaten in the restaurant several times and always absolutely loved it my favourite dish being the coconut and mango curry! I've since moved away and I use the meal prep service for my meals every day. I now look forward to eating food again without worrying I'll be poorly. Thank you Luke and everyone at Alkaline kitchen for healing me and allowing me to enjoy food again ❤️

Absolutely amazing the Food is delicious and nutritious I enjoy it so much that it’s mainly all I eat now. Also the guys do a meal prep service so I’m here most weeks to collect my meals. I can really feel the difference with my health and fitness routines so absolutely buzzing that I found them your health really is your wealth. 😊

Alkaline Kitchen is a cute and quiet cafe, their main focus is having healthy vegan options so everything is naturally sourced and hand made. I tried the Alkaline Burger which is the best bean burger I have ever had and probably the only bean burger I've ever enjoyed. The atmosphere is chilled and cosy, the staff are incredibly friendly and polite, the prices are reasonable and of course the food is delicious. There is paid parking just around the corner.

Unbelievably delicious food which was quite filling. Lively and beautiful ambience. Highly recommended. We were on a one day visit from Derby, whenever we visit again, will definitely check in again 👍🏼.

The food here was really nice and would definitely come back again. It would be nice if it was open longer at night.

Wonderfully tasty food and great juice drinks.

Incredible food, nothing much like it. Always fresh and so tasty! The owners are super friendly, it’s always a pleasure to visit

Fantastic little cafe. Beautiful food and nice people!

Updated - went again today and had literally the best food ive had all year! Alkaline Burger is delicious!! So so so good! Can't wait to go back and try everything on the menu! Delicious food, friendly staff, great music and very chilled atmosphere.

Alkalise your body and improve your health … I’ve wanted to eat here since I moved north in November and it’ll be the first of many visits from now on. Our first time here with a table for 5 and all sharing meant we tasted a big section of the menu (see images of the menu). Each of the portions was very generous to say the least. What amazed us all we’re the complex flavour combinations. They were slightly weird on some but they all worked and very well too. Alkaline Nachos £10.95 - Nachos with marinated baked quinoa, topped with refried beans, cashew sour cream, guacamole, pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage. All with a smoked cashew cheese drizzle over. They were indulgent, sweeter than I’ve had before and had tangy twist too. BBQ Tacos £9.50 - Shredded carrot in an alkaline BBQ sauce in a crispy corn shell, filled with refried beans and guacamole. Topped with pineapple salsa and pickled red cabbage, served with a side salad. Best BBQ tacos in the north so far. Thai Buddy Bowl £10.95 - Orange teriyaki chickpea tofu surrounded by, pineapple 'fried' quinoa, purple coleslaw, a thai side salad, with an almond and ginger dressing and quinoa falafels topped with mango chutney. Crazy flavours that worked really well. This was my favourite dish and I could eat this most days of the week. I’ll be back for this dish on its own. Thai Wrap £9.95 - Quinoa and peanut butter falafels in a soft wrap with mango chutney, coleslaw and kimchi served with a thai side salad, with an almond and ginger dressing and pineapple quinoa. A mental combination of ingredients for a falafel but was amazing. Again, sweeter than I’d have imagined. Pink Pitaya Acai Bowl - £5.50 - A fruity smoothie bowl topped with raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, banana kiwi and coconut (we held the seeds). What an amazing breakfast. A real power breakfast too. Immunity Boost Juice £4.00 (x2) - Strawberry, pear, apple and lemon juice. Refreshing and moreish. Tropical Sunrise Smoothie £4.50 - Papaya, mango, orange, banana, coconut, maple and cashew smoothie. It was as nice as you’d expect and none of the fruits lost their identity due to the power of another. Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie £4.50 - Strawberries, banana, peanut butter, maple and lemon smoothie. Another one that doesn’t quite sound right but really does. The peanut butter was not overpowering and provided a nice earthy grainy taste and texture, lifted by the sweetness of the fruit. A great experience and worth the wait. Would I recommend - Yes - I’d insist you go for the flavours and filling plates alone. Will I return. We’ll be back again soon. Need to finish that menu. Alkaline kitchen - What’s in a name? Your metabolism — the conversion of food into energy — is sometimes compared to fire. When things burn, an ash residue is left behind. Similarly, the foods you eat leave an “ash” residue known as metabolic waste. This metabolic waste can be alkaline, neutral, or acidic. So, if you eat foods that leave acidic ash, it makes your blood more acidic. If you eat foods that leave alkaline ash, it makes your blood more alkaline. Acidic: meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, grains, alcohol. Neutral: natural fats, starches, and sugars. Alkaline: fruits, nuts, legumes, and vegetables. Acidic ash is thought to make you vulnerable to illness and disease, whereas alkaline ash is considered protective. By choosing “Alkaline Kitchen” and an alkaline diet you should be able to “alkalize” your body and improve your health.

Anyone who doubts how tasty vegan food can be needs to visit Alkaline Kitchen. Very tasty dishes served by friendly staff. It really is hard to believe such food is vegan, and we'll be visiting again, not because it is vegan, but because it is delicious!

Delicious food, nice presentation with groovy crockery and deco. Not had healthy soul food like this in middlesbrough before. Will be coming back!

Good to find vegan food specislists. Excellent choices.

Joyful almond acai bowl Variety of fruit, nuts, and seeds was wonderful with lovely presentation. Coconut and mango curry The flavour of the curry was beautifully infused into the vegetables, however it was quite sweet and without a more savoury flavour to balance it out, those without a sweet tooth may find it too much. Smoked cheese and pickle toastie Larger and more varied salad portion than expected which I appreciated. Had a great balance between sweet and savoury overall with the toastie being much better than the non-vegan version.

Alkaline Kitchen is the best of its kind. Simply can’t fault the food. Perfect ambience, healthy fresh ingredients and the most friendly customer service from Luke. Will definitely be visiting again and again!

Great service and even better food, highly recommend.

Incredible vegan food, lots of delicious flavours and so healthy! Lovely atmosphere and wonderful friendly staff. This place is definitely worth a visit!

The food is amazing, and great service. Lovely little place. Will definitely be back!

Lovely plant-based menu with a lot to choose from. It's honestly hard to pick! Incredibly tasty food. Loses a star for not following request to leave off one ingredient I don't like, meaning I had to throw away much more than I would have liked to.

Very nicely surprised to find not one but two wholly vegan eateries in Middlesbrough. Alkaline,as the name suggests, does proper whole food nutrition and it's great.

Brilliant place.Not just the best vegan food but the best food if any kind you're likely to find in a UK restaurant. One day the chef from here is going to be on MasterChef. So get there quick before it goes all upmarket.

It's small but comfortable, the food tastes amazing and they have a good variety

We travelled to Middlesbrough especially to go here. We loved it! The buddha bowl was so huge I didn't need dinner. Everything was made fresh had had such unique flavours, it was a wholesome foodie experience. My hubby was very pleased with the gluten free options too - so happy to have been there.

I got a takeaway for lunch on my last visit. A toastie made fresh with lots of salad. It was delicious.

Googled Vegan Food while driving south past Middlesbrough and Alkaline Kitchen popped up. A quick 5 min diversion and we got parking in the street just outside ‘Bonus!’. Just finished a Breakfast Burrito and half of my wife’s Beetroot burger. Washed down with a vitamin juice. No word of a lie this is the best Vegan kitchen I’ve ever been to. Awesome food, great staff, clean and funky dinning area. A hidden gem 💎

The Alkaline Kitchen was absolutely amazing. The food is fantastic and the owner was so knowledgeable.

Amazing food and service! The best plant based eating out experience we have had. We just wish there were more places like the Alkaline Kitchen out there. Healthy food can taste good!

Love, loved it. Food was fantastic so fresh and very tasty. Had the BBQ tacos, hubby, had the burrito, I pinched a bite and didn't know who's was best, reality both perfect. Nachos the choice of our daughter and not a vegan but she was very impressed, may sway her still. Definitely will be back. Oh by the way gorgeous drinks too, if you don't feel like a bite to eat

Exquisitely prepared food. Decent portions and full of flavour.

Wonderful food and very nice place.

Stopped in here for lunch earlier. Absolutely delicious food and healthy too. I have been vegan for around 15 years and can honestly say this is one of the nicest places I have been to. It was difficult to choose from the menu. Shame I live in London else I would be back very soon!

Lovely ambience and tasty food!!!!!!

Absolutely amazing little Jem in Middlesbrough! Super tasty & healthy food, and great customer service, I can not wait to go back :) thank you

Really good innovative food and incredible coffee.

Gorgeous, freshly prepared vegan food.

What a little dream this place is!! Definitely worth a stop even if your not hungry their smoothies and juices are unreal!!!

Amazing spot for plant based vegan food in teeside. Theres no where else like it. Absolutely gorgeous, healthy, fresh food, the flavours are just incredible... by anyones standards. The owners are so friendly and welcoming. Cannot recommend this place enough.

I do eat meat, but certainly would not miss it with the lovely dishes served here.

Fantastic range of dishes. I had the chickpea omelette which was delicious, filling and packed full of healthy ingredients. Service was quick and staff were friendly.

Amazing choice of food and drinks. Can tell everything is homecooked on site, my and my mam thoroughly enjoyed our experience here and will definitely be returning in future!

Delightful place. Enjoyed my meal, value for money.

Great service and great food, the nachos were unreal! Will definetely be back!

Excellent vegan food been back a couple times now thoroughly enjoyed it the flavours are mad in each dish. Very fresh and generous portions. For some reason when I have eaten here in the afternoon it has done me all day 🙃. But can definitely say is a must try even the drinks are next level 👌🏽 nice warm and friendly service to.

the best food and really good prices! very friendly atmosphere and staff :) my new favourite place

Good atmosphere, good menu - not too big, not too small. Very reasonably priced and good portion sizes. Really like this place and will be returning!

A Real vegan treat. In a time of fake meat, cheese, fish and everything else, they serve genuinely excellent and creative food. I've nothing against the copied foods but a good chef is measured by style

The food is amazing, filling and well priced. Chilled atmosphere, friendly service and a well varied menu. Highly recommended.

Amazing food, atmosphere and staff. Definitely recommend visiting, excellent value for money. Loved it

First time and not the last and v friendly service

Absolutely stunning food. Delicious! 💚

Delicious food. Am not veggy so this place was a very pleasant surprise

Loved the preparations and very friendly guys in the cafe !

Another beautiful meal at this outstanding restaurant. I had the Indian Buddha Bowl this time and every bit of it was delicious. I can't recommend this restaurant highly enough, if it's good healthy food beautifully presented that you're after Alkaline Kitchen is the place to go!

Great little place by the station. Good quality coffee, yummy juice and a healthy lunch. Super friendly staff, thanks!

This establishment is run by luke and anna.its all vegan.they have many dishes to suit all tastes.well worth a visit.you will not be dissapointed.

Great place. Really really friendly place all round and have a great menu too

Delicious vegan food. Packed with loads of diverse flavours, and the place has been designed very well and looks awesome on the inside. Very friendly and helpful staff. I recommend this place to anybody, even if you are not vegan or vegetarian – the food is still amazing.

Delicious tacos! Can’t believe it took me so long to try this place. Will be back again soon.

A perfect meal, absolutely perfect.

Had a great lunch here today. The "Indian Buddha bowl" was supertasty, and the Raw Millionaire's shortbread was a clever take on the coffee shop staple. The menu looks interesting, with all the teas and coffee served. As a 100% non-vegan I didn't feel that "meat free" was "fun free". Highly recommended!

The food here is the best vegan food I have tasted . Forget the fake meats and replica vegan dishes because the choices here are 5 star in their own class. The flavours and textures and colours of the dishes are soo good . It's beautifully presented and the service is fantastic

Great tasty food would recommend

There's no better vegan food in Boro and great, friendly owners too.

Honestly some of the best vegan food I've ever eaten, great prices and really lovely staff, lovely atmosphere.

Friendly and efficient service. Enjoyable and tasty caffè latte... light and flavoursome vanilla cake. Very pleasant ambient for taking a break from Middlesbrough town centre's Saturday hussel n' bussel.

Amazing food! And super friendly staff

Really tasty food, friendly staff. Spot on 👌🏻

Absolutely fabulous food. Definitely going back

The sweet potato pizza was unreal! Staff are amazing and super friendly, such a good choice of food on the menu too.

What can I say other than it's absolutely fabulous! I met a friend for lunch who is not remotely vegan and she loved it too. Great vegan food and presented beautifully. The portion size is generous and excellent value for money. The staff were great and very knowledgeable about the food. Decor is very retro and it has a lovely, welcoming 'vib'. Definitely what Middlesbrough has needed for a long time. Well done Alkaline Kitchen.

Great flavours, textures and colours. Coffee needs an upgrade, but otherwise I would highly recommend a visit.

Went on Saturday teatime with my partial vegan hubby lovely place to eat fresh healthy food, girls were very welcoming and friendly, hubby enjoyed the tacos /2 different fillings I had the duo of curries, delicious, also a tropical smoothie & to finish a fabulous choc mousse, looking forward to our next visit xx

Incredible tasty whole foods, nothing processed here and no nasty animal products either which are obviously cruel and bad for the planet! The staff are so friendly too! Gorgeous atmosphere!

his place is amazing!! I loved everything about it, cruelty free food at a very high standard. We plan all our holidays and trips around good vegan food and have eaten in some incredible restaurants around the world - this place is up there with the best of them. Delicious flavours, really well presented, with a well thought out variety of colours, textures and nutrients in each dish. The meals are filling and good sized portions and reasonably priced. We got the omelette, tacos and mini quiches. The cafe has a really cool vibe and decor and the staff were so lovely and helpful. It’s so hard to find ‘good’ vegan food in the UK that isn’t just fried junk food; so I am soooo excited to finally know of a vegan restaurant in the North East which ticks all the boxes at such a high standard. We would highly recommend this place to non vegans too- the dishes speak for themselves. I love there motto “Keep It Kind” ❤️❤️
