Everything at Ethos is delicious! They have gluten free and vegan option that taste amazing. Their breakfast menu really worth it! Staff is not the most friendly but with the food there it doesn’t really matter ;)

I am technically a flexitarian, a meat and fish eater but with an increasing desire to eat more plant based food. Here you are spoiled for choice. Fantastic range of food for all diets, tastes and appetites. It’s a self-serve approach so you can have exactly what you want on your plate- and that is exactly what you pay for. Payment is according to weight of your plate. I had a delicious plate of food for £20 and went with a friend who needs dairy and gluten free and she had plenty of options to choose from. Will definitely return.

There is a large window-front to this establishment and you can't miss the self-serving buffet area on the right and the different types of seating area on the left. There are booths, round tables and even a bar area for seating. This is what attracted me to go in. The idea is you are seated at the table, order your drinks and then pickup a plate and help yourself from the multitude of dishes (hot, cold, ethnic, spice, sweet etc) from the buffet benches. You then take your plate to be weighed. That's it! Staff were polite and attentive not just with the clientele but also making sure the buffet area was always well stocked up. Whatever I selected was quite tasty. I would like to go back again.

After watching Game Changers on Netflix a while back, my wife decided to book a vegetarian lunch, albeit with bottomless Prosecco on a Groupon deal, at this wonderful establishment. We were pleasantly surprised as we really didn't know what to expect . The layout, ambience , service and choice of dishes were all just amazing. The food was delicious and dishes too plentiful to mention individually here. The desserts , although had to be paid for over and above the deal, were out of this world and extremely tempting and totally delicious. The service could not be faulted and our waiter, Mihai, was absolutely brilliant in attending to our needs and ensuring that the glass was never half full! Highly recommend Ethos as a great experience. Will definitely visit again!

There is a large selection of cold and cooked food from salads and stews to desserts. There are also lots of gluten free, veggie and vegan options (less so on the dessert front). The food was good but nothing stood out as particularly amazing although still worth a visit. I’d go back as there is plenty of variety and unlike so many places, you can get lots of salad and veg here with meal.

Visited with a friend for the bottomless brunch using a Groupon voucher. I’m pregnant and was worried I’d have nothing to drink as the deal came with unlimited prosecco. But wow, they really looked after me, continuously topped my up my glass with organic alcohol free sparkling wine, which was absolutely lovely! They also let us choose which table would be most comfortable to sit at, and we were able to fill up our plates as many times as we liked!! The lasagne was sensational, as was everything else, and the service from all of the lovely waitresses was perfect, even on a busy Saturday afternoon. Will be back very soon!

Trying to find somewhere interesting to eat can be tricky and we stumbled across ETHOS purely by mistake. I must be honest and the first impressions were very good and although the restaurant was quiet, it still had a welcoming atmosphere and it was clean, fresh and modern inside. The layout inside is interesting as its is self service and you take your food up to the till to be weighed and are charged per 100g. Not a bad idea but for us and not really knowing the weight of 100g, I ended up with a plate of food costing £14 and my other half had one costing £20. OK, the food is pricey but it's actually very nice and tasty also. The one criticism I had which I informed the waitress about (she was very polite) wad the heat lamps weren't hot enough and the food was a little but warmer than warm. She said she would address it straight away. For somewhere different to try, there is no reason why this shouldn't be on your list. OK, as I said it is a bit pricey but the food is good and it was central London. All I will say is check the food labels as I had a dip which said "sweet honey" but it was anything but sweet or honey. The spice blew my head off. I think we will go back but unless we are in the vicinity, I don't see a reason to travel there just for food.

The decor is lovely - real trees, big tables, a little cramped but very pleasant. We were 'greeted' by a very fierce person who to her dismay had to give in and allow us a table, who then shouted at the bloke who came in after us for holding the door open. Later I saw her helping herself to food so maybe she is a manager. You serve yourself; there is lots of choice, all of it vegetarian.This is luxury. The food is wholefood, freshly cooked, some of it spicy, some salads, sauces and dips. I think some of it cannot be kept warm enough because of the sheer volume of the dishes. But tepid is fine and I really liked what I chose. Mac cheese, veggie scotch eggs, some nice spicy roast cauli, fritters, beetroot dip etc. I was trying not to eat too much so took small portions, which was weighed as costing about £7.00. Is that expensive? ... not sure. This is central London. We had water, but there were drinks if you wanted them. We also avoided the cakes which did look super. We were not made to feel hurried. Staff were generally very cheerful. The loos were clean. I think this restaurant offers a brilliant vege experience. It appears that you can't book, so who are all the empty tables for ... but never mind, once in, you are in for a treat or two. Next time I am going for a swim first so I can eat dessert.

I have eaten in Ethos Foods a couple of times before and decided to treat myself to some lunch there after finishing shopping. The place was busy and I was told they have no spaces as fully booked. I could see visual spaces but assumed they must have been for reservations. As I was leaving the couple behind me who also had no booking were offered a table for 30 minutes. I confronted the person who had served me in on this and he tried to make out I misunderstood him: I did not - I was told they are fully booked and I was not offered a table for 30 minutes! I am very disappointed - clearly my face did not fit on this particular occasion!! Not sure if I have the heart to go back!

We'd arranged to meet at Ethos Foods, a vegan cafe nearby and once I'd gone entirely the wrong way we eventually met up. She ordered herself crepes for breakfast and it would have been rude to make her eat alone so I had buckwheat pancakes. These were delicious and I am such a glutton it was a great effort to restrain from having some of the delicious looking brownies they had too. Service here was lovely too, a very happy and helpful girl and it was an enjoyable experience.

This is a vegetarian and vegan restaurant that has lots of different hot and cold dishes that you choose for yourself from the buffet. There’s an amazing variety, from salads through to soups and stews and evening miso aubergine. It’s great for vegans and veggies alike, everything well labelled and the interior is gorgeous - all marble, velvet and with trees inside! You pay by weight and it is fairly expensive but you are right in the centre of London and next to Oxford Street - plus as it’s so fresh and full of variety, you do get what you pay for. Good wine list too and of course teas and coffees. Going to visit for breakfast soon, so will post another review.

Wanted vegetarian/vegan food; lunch was a business meeting. Totally don't get the concept. Reserved a table at 1pm on a weekday to be hounded to 're-confirm' in an email the day before (a Sunday) and in the reservation, we are told they will need the table back at 2pm. Arrived on time (could we do otherwise?) to be escorted eventually to our seat - -not a lot of room between tables -- only to find that it was serve yourself. Okay. Nice food to choose from but as they sell by weight you take your wallet with you (I am running out of hands now) and pay. Ask for water for the table. Are told yes we can have it. Sit down. Return to cash register to collect water. (Can't it just be on the table?)

Me and my husband visited the restaurant for our wedding anniversary. We were very impressed! The staff were friendly and very helpful when explaining how the restaurant works in terms of its 'pay by weight' system. The variety of savoury dishes on offer was fabulous- nothing like we have ever seen before. Some of the food items really stood out namely the vegetarian sausage roll and the scotch egg. Definitely try those! Everything else was very nice but not exceptional. The cost of the food was very reasonable for London too. The puddings were delicious and there was a good selection. We had some coffees made with milk alternatives which were delicious too. The decoration of the restaurant was really unusual and lovely. All in all it is very worth visiting.

Aß hier insgesamt 3 x während meines Aufenthaltes in London. Wer vegetarisches Buffet mag, ist im Ethos gut aufgehoben (übrigens weit besser als im Tibits, welches ich ebenfalls besuchte), es gibt eine Vielzahl an kalten vegetarischen Gerichten, Salaten, Dips, Saucen und Desserts zur Auswahl. Ist abends zwar immer gut besucht, in der Regel ist aber auch ohne Reservierung ein Platz zu bekommen.

We visited ethos on a recent trip to London. Was impressed by the selection of both hot and cold foods, most dishes were vegan which meant plenty of choice. As it was our first visit we weren’t sure how much food would weigh so it was difficult to judge the price of the meal (as it’s charged on weight), I filled my plate conservatively and it came to around £12, on additional visits I’d have a better idea of what it is likely to cost. Would visit again.

We were looking for some veggie food in London more than the usual salads and pasta. Ethos was recommended and I must say the place was great. Best veggie food I have ever tasted and really nice vibe. Not cheap but not expensive, especially given the location and quality.

¡Este lugar es el sueño de todo vegano / vegetariano! Hay muchas opciones deliciosas para elegir: ¡quería todo! ! Y eso explica por qué pagué 28 por un plato de comida, pero para ser justos, ¡mi plato estaba absolutamente CARGADO! Los buñuelos de coliflor y brócoli eran mi favorito absoluto, así como la berenjena glaseada y el tempeh de barbacoa. ¡Todo tenía mucho sabor, lo que demuestra que comer sano no es aburrido!

There was plenty of dishes to choose from with wonderful flavours and textures. I would totally recommend to anyone, not just vegetarians. I tasted many of them and the only grumble I had was that the BBQ sauce would have been better served separately, as there was way too much sauce, and the sauce was super sweet. This dissipated once my Skinny Prosecco arrived – although how skinny it is, I have no idea! Although each dish was absolutely divine, it seemed like oil is used in practically all of them, so if you are trying to cut down in oil/fats, you’ll be limited in what you can eat, despite the super healthy ingredients used here. It would be great to see the nutritional content for dishes perhaps per 50 or 100 grams and for the cakes, which look scrumptious also but didn’t try. I spent £20 on the food including 1 skinny prosecco, so I think its fairly expensive. The atmosphere is such as a café, albeit a more upmarket restaurant style café, and the table service ( for drinks only) could have been more tentative, but my experience was thoroughly enjoyable, so saying all that I’ll definitely be back, for sure!

La selección de comida es grande, muchas opciones veganas + todo es vegetariano. Muchos postres veganos y sin gluten. Para un almuerzo buffet pagado por peso, el precio era razonable, la comida tenía mucho sabor si te gustaba un montón de salsas, hummus, cuscús y este tipo de alimentos.

Fui aquí para cenar y al principio me sorprendió descubrir que era de autoservicio. Probablemente debería haber hecho algunas comprobaciones de antemano. Por lo general, asocio el autoservicio con comida desagradable, grasienta y poco atractiva, pero esto era exactamente lo contrario. Después de caminar por todas las diferentes opciones, instantáneamente quería todo, ya que todo se veía increíble. Una isla de comida tenía lados y entrantes, otra con platos principales y otra para el desierto. Para las dos primeras islas que paga en función del peso con desiertos a precios individuales. ¡Toda la comida que comimos fue excelente, con tanta variedad para veganos! Fue un poco caro, pero está en una excelente ubicación y te da la oportunidad de probar muchos platos diferentes de una sola vez. ¡Definitivamente volvería a comer aquí!

The stereotype of a ‘veggie buffet’ (big bowls of curried slop, boring desserts, health over taste, a cheap bill, scruffy/hippy decor and friendly staff) are all overturned here. The food is delicious, surprising, plentiful, indulgent. The end bill isn’t cheap but it’s not expensive either for the location - and it’s ‘pay by weight’ so maybe I’m too greedy. The surroundings are smart if a little too noisy. And the staff are pretty grumpy - but they’re not on tips so that’s no surprise.

An early evening meal and intro to Ethos for my daughter who will definitely return. Good selection of cold and hot dishes, like the pay by weight system and friendly staff. A few niggles: hot dishes need to be hotter; some were lukewarm at best. The lime and mint mocktail was a lurid green colour and contained no fresh lime or mint as I would expect for £4.50. Finally, cakes are small and a little pricey so we abstained. It is still a great little restaurant with superb vegetarian dishes to convince even a hardened carnivore.

It’s a self service buffet with a wide variety of meat free dishes and salads, which you choose and then take your plate to be weighed. The weight determines the cost.

I picked ethos as they offered both a vegan and gluten free afternoon tea which is hard to find. The food was tasty and the waiter described the menu, however overall the service was slow and unfriendly. The cakes were extremely tasty and the coffee was very good however for £25 each it’s not the best value afternoon tea around. The water dispenser was always empty and / or there were no glasses and we waited 15 mins for coffee. I expected better service for the price. Great place for coffee and vegan cake though!

The Aloo Scotch eggs were delicious, but nothing else particularly stood out, and I felt it was quite expensive given that a lot of the dishes on offer were nothing out of the ordinary. There were a couple of items I thought were quite cynical attempts to push the price up, for example the giant meringues were weirdly solid when you'd expect them to be quite light. The basil Martinis we ordered were terrible, which was a shame as we had been looking forward to trying a few of the cocktails. Overall, the meal failed to meet our expectations.

Found this restaurant for my daughter ad a treat, she is a vegetarian and I'm not. It was very delicious and we both enjoyed it a lot. It's a buffet style, help yourself, pay by the weight of food on your plate on a scale at the till before your eat it. It's not the cheapest meal, and the "hot" dishes were not so hot, more warm. However, we mixed it with cold salads and had a tasty variety all mixed together. Would return.

I loved my visit to this restaurant. The decor is modern, warm and interesting. The food works as a buffet where you take what you want and pay by weight. They offer a wide selection of different dishes. There is probably more fried food than I'd like but still has lots of alternatives. I was very happy with the variety and also with how interesting almost every dish was. This is my kind of heaven. I had a pretty good sized plate of food with probably 6-7 different types of dish. This cost £11. That is hard to beat on value at this kind of quality. I finished with a chocolate brownie and an espresso which together were fabulous. I'm definitely returning.

Granted the place looks neat and prim, it's Not the most courteous. Went with a colleague, our first time there, no one was at the door, we waited then we walked in, ordered - paid, still no one said anything, and waited with our food for a couple who were just leaving to sit in their seats. Got rude looks from them and then doorman comes to us saying 'there's a sign outside that says wait to be seated'. It was a borderline horrible experience, we had paid already so had to sit and eat. It felt like the bad side of posh. For a restaurant that is named 'Ethos', it should demonstrate more integrity than that please.

Me and four other friends came to Ethos without a reversarion midweek as we wasn't expecting to come here. We had to wait an hour as it was very busy before we got a table, but found a place to drink and came back. The restaurant is very pretty with the birch wood trees around the seating area and all the lovely food opposite. With only one vegetarian in our group this is a great place for anyone that loves food. Everything I tasted was great and was very full afterwards as I had a bit of everything! Be carefull as pay by the weight of the food, so it could be expensive. The staff were very polite and it had a great atmosphere. I would difinately recommend this restaurant for anyone, but make sure you make a reservation to avoid disappointment. I would love to come back and try the deserts, they look amazing!

First, the location. Very central but located in a silent street close to Oxford st. Inside is welcoming but a little noisy for the rumor of people, especially if you share a table, like us. I took a good amount of fresh and cooked food, which came to cost me around 18 pounds, so not bad.. Then, the food. Everything looked very inviting, but in the end, the flavor did not stand out, everything was tasteless. I've finished my plate, fully, but not satisfied. Maybe is because I'm Italian ,and we put salt and spices on everything, maybe wasn't the right season for those vegetables... I'll probably come back, because of the central location and a good quality of food, I presume.

We found a review of Ethos in Time Out and thought it looked great. It didn't disappoint. Booking a table online was easy, but I was glad I spotted the confirmation (or not) email that arrived a couple of days before. For someone who has been veggie for over 40 years, I still find it exciting to actually have a CHOICE of food! It was a great choice too, really delicious. The only problem for me was that I kept wanting to go back and get more! We will definitely make a return visit then we're next in London.

This was the first time I had tried a vegetarian restaurant and it was a great surprise.

My friend and I went to quite a few vegetarian buffet places in London. We decided to try Ethos for dinner. We were a little disappointed by the food options, there was not a large variety of options, they mainly had salads and a few other dishes that we didn't particularly enjoyed. The selection of deserts was nice though. The place was not crowded and we were able to get a table without making a reservation in advance. Maybe we were just unlucky on that day, but I don't think I would like to come back here anytime soon.

I had heard such great things about Ethos so I was specially excited to try it so I convinced my fiancé that we should go there for dinner.

While my good friend and I were staying in London, I wanted to surprise her with a vegetarian dinner, and Ethos was definitely an experience neither of us will forget! I've known her since she became a vegetarian nearly a decade ago so I know how difficult it can be for her to find things to eat at restaurants, and the buffet at Ethos guaranteed that we had lots of options, and got to try lots of interesting things.

Great food, healthy choices which you select yourself. Plate is weighed and you pay for what you have chosen - delicious. Great service, lovely restaurant and delicious 241 cocktails - what more could you ask for!!

In January we booked a table for 4 by email for 9th February. This booking was confirmed at the time of booking and we received a reminder 2 days before we were due to go, which we also confirmed. When we turned up, we were told that we had not booked properly! They were extremely unhelpful and did not make any attempt to rectify the situation and just argued constantly that we couldn't have made the booking we did, despite showing them the confirmation emails!

An unexpected find round the back of Oxford Street, and I was spoiled for choice of all the fresh, delicious, creative vegetarian food here, and also the variety of teas. Friendly staff, pretty setting, and good value for money. I’d visit again when in hectic central London.

Nos gusta probar nuevos restaurantes vegetarianos y encontré este. Hay un extenso bufé con opciones frías y calientes y usted paga cada plato por peso. Bueno para los veganos también. Algunas excelentes opciones picantes pero también más ligeras para la delicada. Una encantadora selección de postres con algo de muerte por chocolate si tienes espacio.

Just loved the ambience, the food and the decor. Hope to return next time I'm in London. I wanted to try everything as it looked so yummy, but I managed to restrain myself.

Conocí a un par de amigos para cenar aquí, reservé con anticipación. La bienvenida fue amable y nos sentamos con prontitud. Estábamos un poco cerca de los baños, pero la camarera dijo que podía cambiarnos si hubiera otra mesa disponible. Al final no pareció molestarnos, así que nos quedamos. Nos gustó mucho el bonito espacio, con árboles dentro. La selección de comida fue muy variada, sin carne y muy bien presentada. Es una experiencia ligeramente estresante, ya que no se sabe realmente cuánto costará la placa hasta que se pese. Llené poco mi plato por si acaso y me costó alrededor de 13. Me gustó todo lo que probé aunque no soy vegetariano. Hay algunos postres y pasteles agradables, a precios razonables, y vino está disponible. Voy a volver.

Pay by weight buffet style with brilliant selection of hot and cold vegan dishes. Ambient decor and convenient location make this place a great option for some healthy, fresh food when shopping on Oxford Street.

Trois buffets dont un de desserts, l'idée est de se servir soi même et on paie selon le poids de la nourriture, compter environ 15-20 pounds l'assiette

Comí aquí todo el tiempo, aunque no soy vegetariano, eso es lo bueno que es. Me encanta la variedad de comida que se ofrece, y me gusta que todo sea realmente delicioso. Recomiendo las picaduras de halloumi (adictivas, no aceitosas / pesadas) y la feijoada seitan, también una vez comieron una ensalada que creo que se llamaba Miss Delicia Ojalá me hubiera tomado una foto porque era increíble, estaba hecha de brotes de brócoli picados y era luminosa y espaciosa, hermosa. Tienen los fundamentos correctos, el arroz siempre es esponjoso y fresco. Y todo es una gran relación calidad-precio.

Not being vegan, I thought I wouldn't find anything to eat at Ethos - was mistaken. Tasty, fresh food - you definitely feel it. I like the fact that I can try many dishes, and pay for what I eat (although on pricey side). Good option for lunch.

Firstly the location is so easy to get to, just around the corner from Oxford Circus and a perfect place to have a break from some Oxford Street shopping. We walked in and loved the gorgeous interiors with real trees, marble tables and ornate displays of food and deserts. I've attached a picture of the food displays because they're just too amazing to describe in words! As a vegan, it was important to me that the food had clear labelling which it did and also stating if it contained gluten. The weigh your plate system works so well as you can try a little bit of everything and not only does it reduce waste, it also makes it more affordable. I'll be returning many more times and bringing all my friends to the new London treasure I've discovered, thank you Ethos!

Went here for lunch. It was fabulous and a great choice of food. It did feel a bit odd plating what we wanted, getting it weighed and then taking it to our table. The food was delicious Would I go again- definitely

One of the best healthy vegan lunch places I’ve been to that tastes just as good as my mums cooking (and she’s very good!). So much range of buffet tasty food! Help yourself to a buffet and pay by weight. Not expensive at all compared to brunch places that are nowadays overly priced for their decor rather than the food. Decor is beautifully done with lovely leaves and trees! Helpful and polite staff. Will definitely come back here again next month with family again! You must book as places get reserved quite quickly especially on weekends. Next time I will try their deserts, they just look so pretty and also very healthy - right up my street!

Restaurants where you pay according to how much the food weighs are an idea we have come across elsewhere, often in post-Soviet countries, but this is the first time I have visited one in London. And it is fantastic.

Wasn’t impressed. This place is overrated. Had dinner here and found the food to be bland and Luke warm. Unfortunate, as I was really looking forward to eating here after reading all the positive reviews.

Restaurant price for about 3 tablespoon of lentil soup with 3 temp 4 block of carrots, 3-4 fried cheese, 2 table spoon of okra and a scoop of salad of brussel sprouts and cabbage and ended up paying 11 pounds for a box that was not even half full.

It all looks OK but service is poor and the bar food served is cheap frozen food at prices that should require a far better quality. There are far better options in London

I used to love this place, but haven't been for nearly 10 years. I'm glad to see it hasn't changed too much, but with the downside that it is now apparently owned by BrewDog. Luckily, it appears they let them continue without having to follow the "taproom by numbers" you get out of most BrewDog bars, so not only does it have it's own look, but there is a much more interesting selection of beers. It was easy enough to get a seat on a Saturday afternoon, which is always a bonus in a decent location like this.

Fui a desayunar. Los precios son bastante altos para lo que normalmente paga por el desayuno. He pedido uno con espinacas, tocino y aguacate para comer. Me sorprendió un poco cuando mi desayuno llegó en una caja de cartón con un tenedor de plástico, ¡sin cuchillo! Tenía una cucharada de espinacas en una esquina y un poco de puré de aguacate en la otra, escondiéndose debajo de mi huevo revuelto. Bacon parecía barato, y bastante difícil de comer sin un cuchillo. Aunque dije que quería un poco de pimienta, toda mi lucha estaba cubierta. Mucho a mucho. Este lugar no es para mi. Buen café sin embargo.
