Herbivorous Vegan | Big Hands in Manchester

It's OK. Very expensive for what you got. Something like 17 quid for a sandwich and chips. Was ok, the chips were sweet so not to my taste. Sandwich was good. So pricey though.

Dry and overcooked. Could hardly chew or swallow it even after drenching in the dip. All I could taste was salt. Very disappointed after seeing the good reviews on here. Paprika fries tasted good though.

Amazing food. The portion sizes are really good and the price was great too. I ordered the wings and the fried “chicken” burger and it was really good. I’m so devastated this place is closing down and hopefully it will reopen in another location.

Amazing! I would sell my soul to eat here everyday ❤️

The loaded mac and cheese is phenomenal. The only thing I don't enjoy is eating around really loud music, Hatch is a very loud and busy place, but I could not fault my meal at all.

Chill place to grab a bite to eat. Nice atmosphere and relaxed setting. The food is very tasty and probably one of the best vegan junk food experience I have had. Come hungry as you will over-spend and you will have to chow down on a lot of food!

The food was horrible, so it's disrespectful to even serve this. Not to mention the overpriced menu. Horrible 1/10 stars

It's so nice to find a place to eat where the whole menu is vegan. I tried the mac n cheeze with Seitan, OMG, it was delicious. The Seitan was cooked to perfection, and the sauce, 😋 I will definitely be going back and bringing some home. Well done, herbivorous. Wish there was one in Preston

Food was good, the cashew cheese isn't very "cheesy." There isn't much scape inside to eat and eating outdoors isn't much of an option in rougher weather.

Food wasn’t for me I think it’s personal taste as the cheese didn’t taste of cheese at all but I think it’s down to the type they use. I didn’t find the welcome to the store front very friendly was kinda put off to begin with.

Really nice placement surrounded by other restaurants , amazing texture on the fake chicken burger. I found the chicken burger a bit too salty and felt it needed something like pickles in it but still a great crunch and texture. The philly cheesesteak loaded fries were also great but again posed the issue of being a bit too salty. Overall great place though and will be back again.

Absolutely delicious! Some of the best vegan food I've ever had!! I wish I could come to Manchester to eat this again.

Incredible vegan food at a really good price. Highly recommended!

Letting the vegan side down honestly. Waited 40 minutes for food whilst numerous dishes got brought out for the social media team to take pics of whilst we sat hungry and annoyed. Eventually got a refund and went elsewhere.

What a great little discovery, based in an area with lots of bar and food offerings. Our burgers were superb

Order from here every time I'm in Manchester, delicious food!

Fantastic food we'll definitely be returning in the near future 😋

I don’t want to write a bad review since I think it was a one-off, but the philly cheese steak was so salty I couldn’t finish it.

The buffalo wings and fries were delicious!

Great! Had a 'chicken' burger with spicy fries. Fast and friendly service. Tasty food, and a good portion size. Set me up for the evening. Happy customer.

Food came quickly, something a bit different but nice. Would recommend.

Did not expect this to be this good, easily one of the best vegan places in Manchester. Got the chilly cheesesteak and wings and fries, very good would order again with a taller glass of beer

Thought we'd try something different. A cool little set up made from an old shipping container. Really nice vibe and friendly staff but unfortunately the food wasn't for us!

Delicious vegan comfort food, generous portion size too! Had the Big Kahuna burger with cashew cheese fries, and it was more than enough even when I was really hungry coming in.

Best vegan buffalo wings I ever had, hands down. Not to mention the best service you'll ever get.

I really enjoyed myself but my partner had a transcend experience. They kept bringing up how fantastic the food was afterwards. Notable comments: "Best garlic and herb sauce I've ever had" "That cashew cheese sauce was a delight" " Want to have those wings everyday for the rest of my life" "[The cheese philly steak], it was, tender, flavoursome and wrapped in the most pillow-like bread known to life" Please can we have a discount so we can come again sooner 🙏

tastie vegan food but not the cosiest to dine in, although the cheese chips were the best thing i ever tasted

Delicious vegan Mac and cheese with BBQ seitan

It was alright. Really salty. Wouldn't go back I don't think

Had the bacon mac and cheese and it was 10/10, will 100 percent be coming back! Props to the one man band! You smashed it:D

So much food oh my goodness! Great vegan options. One portion of Chips is definitely enough for 2!

Great vegan fast food !! Loved my loaded French fries! Would go again

Insanely good food! Every dish tasted so different and a treat for the senses. Very friendly serviced. Warm relaxed inclusive atmosphere at Hatch. Looking forward to returning thanks so much x

Love this place, 🫶the food is beyond amazing.😌 Always a little personal message on the take out bags, just the small things😁 meat eaters would have a hard time saying they wouldn't like the busgers here.👌

Lovely food, area and experience. Would recommend.

First time in Hatch. First saiten chick'n. I'd do both again.

Super tasty wings & fries. Excellent selection.

Filling, juicy, tasty vegan fast food! We opted for a takeaway on a sunny day and enjoyed it during a picnic. Just give it a try whenever, wherever.

Excellent food and great service

Friendly place, lovely music, food is amazing. Loved the mac n cheese and the fake beef patty and fake fried chicken. Loved it.

Even though I'm not vegan, I can definitely recommend this place. The food was really good and there is a good variety. Unfortunately the menu has changed and the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich was no longer available, but the 'lamb' burger was a very good replacement.

By far the best vegan (fast) food I have tried so far. Very tasty, comforting, filling. Portions and toppings are quite generous. Very reasonably priced. I had the buffalo wings and the spicy loaded fries and it was £13.50 in total, and you get so full. Also, the staff are so friendly. The place has more outside seating and three tables inside, and they do takeout. Absolutely amazing place, a must visit! I highly recommend it and will be looking forward to coming back if I am in Manchester again.

Get the wings and cheesy chips! These were incredible. The chefs were super friendly and provided recommendations. 10/10 would recommend. Perfect when your craving that vegan junk food goodness.

This restaurant has a fantastic range of delicious vegan items. Very glad that I discovered them and will certainly return for more grub in the future

The tastiest lunch for sure! The wings and burgers are very tasty. Great portion sizing and everyone is so lovely! Always a happy face when I come here. 100% recommend to anyone!

I absolutely love this place. Every time we go to Hatch I order from here. I try something different every time and it never disappoints. Today was the Philly cheesesteak loaded fries with jalapeños. Outstanding! Keep up the good work 😀

Honestly can't get enough of Herbivorous. When we're looking for a takeaway, it's almost always the one we go for. The photo is of their signature dish - the Big Kahuna burger. I'm usually skeptical of pineapple in savoury dishes, but it really works so well with the teryaki sauce and the delish bacon. Love so many things but esp the Philly cheesesteak - Homemade seitan with roasted onions and peppers, and their crowning glory - the homemade cashew cheese sauce (all the cheesiness without the plasticy texture of a lot of vegan cheeses). The seitan is soo meaty and delicious 10/10

Smashing mac and cheeze and great fries & wings. Awesome wee vegan diner/hatch thing!

I have ordered through Uber Eat i didn’t get the cheesy fries i got normal fries instead i tried contacting the restaurant I didn’t get an answer, i tried speaking to Uber they said they cant do much about it, Imagine paying for something then you dont get it

I'm having an awful day, proper ill, feeling sorry for myself, so I got a delivery and the food from here really cheered me up. The cheeseburger spring rolls and buffalo wings are so good!

My favourite vegan food <3 found them at Stretford Foodhall and followed them to here. The buffalo wings and cheesy fries have only got better in that time! Best eaten in, but still delicious taken away or reheated.

Amazing food and great atmosphere

Really great food. Great student deal on Tuesdays too! I had the Philly Cheesesteak and it was sumptuous. Also, it arrived in like 5 minutes which was so so quick

Chicken burger was hard to eat, as well as being pretty bland in taste and quite stodgy.

We visited Hatch on a whim , had a superb meal from Herbivorous, and the environment is so unique , it's inspiring. The food was delivered promptly, great service. The area near Herbivorous is accessible, perfect for wheelchair users and those with a mobility issue, the outdoor aspect makes some areas ideal for patients who need to vape discretely. All the facilities you'd expect from a great venue. Recommend visiting.

Gorgeous vegan food! The prices are absolutely amazing for the portion sizes as well!

Great food, super fast service (the rest of the table was jealous) will definitely be coming here again!

I would give 4 and a half stars. The food was nice and fresh however it was extremely salty due to the salt content of the jalapeno itself. I like the QR code order system. Very easy to use.

Popped down for tea one day to try out some bits with a friend. We shared the cashew cheese sauce fries, kahuna burger and the philly cheese steak. I was a little bit sad as the food wasn't as great as I was expecting seeing as I've heard so many great things. The cheese steak was very cold when it came so was a little tough in texture to eat. And the fries were very odd, the texture and colour of the sauce looks very different to what I've seen other people get in reviews so not sure what went on there. The burger was good through, and felt unique to other vegan burgers I've tried which is a plus 👍 It was a bit of a shame but I think I just caught it on a bit of a bad day perhaps, I'll probably try again some time as I love supporting vegan businesses and it's somewhere I really want to love.

Nice place but the ordering is a real pain through the app. Needs to be changed so its easy to order.

Delicious vegan food! Such a valuable addition to the variety of hatch's vendors!

This is a really great retail area the hatch brilliant c9ncept the cafe is good too

Lovely staff, great food. Tastiest vegan food ever. Not the healthiest though. Will visit everytime I visit Manchester.

Lovely food and very big portions; loved the cheezy fries. And the big Kahuna burger was, well, big and moreish! A great addition to Withington. My partner liked the 'chicken'. Also good choice of beers, they had Pomona cans if I recall. I must check out the Herbivorous in Hatch also.

Yummy, with various seating places around they bring your food to

I ordered the food in the uploaded photo. It was a bit difficult to eat it with bear hands and it was not tasty at all.

Lovely and philling! Just what I needed. A tasty Vegan Philly Cheeseburger! HV is at back left inside Hatch. 😁

Had to give 5 stars on food appearance alone! Although had to cancel order after 30mins and go back to work hungry as delivery orders have priority 😭

First time trying this place - Firstly, I am not vegan but I like to try different vegan foods! Overall the food tastes amazing, you will not be disappointed by that, the only reason I gave 4 stars is due to the price. Detailed review below... The kahuna Burger: The "beef" texture looked like real beef and holds its structure very well. The sauces on the burger were tasty and the actual "cheese" was very impressive. The actually burger bun was very nice. The size of the burger is small to medium, decent size but you may need a side. Cheese Fries: The cashew cheese sauce on the Paprika chips was very nice and flavoursome, the portion size is also decent, the only thing I would say is the flavour gets a bit overwhelming if consuming on its own without anything to break up the flavours but overall they are nice. Price: Looking at the menu online to looking at the menu in the restaurant, there is a difference in price from £1-£2 per item which was surprising. The total cost for a burger and chips was around £15, I enjoyed the food but I just can't justify paying that price for a burger and chips despite how lovely they taste and look. Overall the staff are lovely, waiting times are short, food is good, so I do definitely recommend trying the place for yourself even if it is just once.

Vegan-licious! Embrace the future with app-based ordering and meat-free burgers!

Peng. Best vegan gf chicken I’ve ever had x

Really enjoyed the wings and fries, it was spicy to the perfect level of spicy and the sauce was the perfect amount as well :D tasted amazing, best chippies I've had in the UK and that's coming from someone who came from the chippies capital in the world 💖✨

Incredible! Great burgers and fries, chicken burger was pure chefs kiss!

Amazing food! Great place to go for a bite to eat, other shops of interest there too!

The vegan beef burger was amazing! Really good vegan cheese and the taste was just right, would recommend!

Good food and good vibes. The philly loaded fries and mock chicken burger is a definite must!! The hosts are so lovely. Will definitely come back. :-)

After recently trying to eat more vegan food we were looking for new vegan restaurants. The best vegan food we have ever eaten. The burgers and the chicken wings were so delicious and I did not miss that it wasn’t real meat. And the cashew sauce too, wow so delicious!

Self claimed but I completely agree, they have absolutely Completed seitan, burgers, chips n chicken. All tasty as and super fantastic. (Y)

Absolutely fantastic vegan food! Headed over to visit these awesome guys from Sheffield and was not disappointed at all, food was full of flavour and very unique, honestly one of the best food establishments we’ve had the please of eating at. Cannot wait to visit their new restaurant 🤩 all the best!

Really enjoyed our kahuna burgers, spicy fries and cashew nut fries. You sit in a communal outdoor food arcade and can order via your phone from the vendors around. Good place for socialising. Undercover (under the Manchester ring road bridge). Also some outdoor areas.

Absolutely incredible!! Great selection of American junk food, all vegan. The staff is super lovely. While we were eating a stranger came up to us and asked where our food was from, because it looked so good.

Allowed us to book. And was not even open even after a saying we could be charged if we don't turn up.

Very tasty food! May be a little less salt and sugar but nonetheless, very delicious!

Omg if I could write a 10star review I would. The service was amazing but the food omg.. that was out of this world, who says vegans can go without all these tasty delicious takeaway food huh? Plus no animals had to die or any major health risks eating it! Would definitely recommend the phillycheese steak sandwich and the cheeze fries. I’d kill someone for the recipe’s hehe!

Ate here today during our visit to Manchester and was absolutely blown away by the food! The wings and loaded fries are to die for. Amazing flavours and left me feeling full! Robyn kept me updated about my order and boxed it all up so I could take it away. Service felt very personal and I loved that the cutlery was wooden. Can't wait to eat from here again when we're next in Manchester! Thank you ❤

Best vegan burgers in Manchester hands down

AMAZING!!!!! Wow this food was so good, and allergy friendly for gluten and dairy!! So so delicious :)

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC SERVICE AND FOOD! I messaged Robyn earlier in the week and asked for a table and she was so lovely and informative the whole time we messaged. Upon arriving to Hatch, I gave her a call and she came immediately outside to meet us. She took us to a lovely table where she managed to sneak us an outdoor heater (what a legend!) Everything was ordered through the website and brought to the table. The food was superb and arrived so quick. I definitely recommend the wings and fries or the chicken burger, both were mouth-wateringly delicious! We'll definitely be coming again, we had a fantastic night and were so pleased with everything. Thanks Herbivorous! :)

Omg the food is soo amazing and soo tasty, we ordered the Big Kahuna burger and loaded cashew fries and it was well beyond my expectations, I read good reviews for the food and it was my first time here I would 100% recommend eating here. Food is lush

They're still going!! Picked up a take away from next door to Ancoats General, been gagging for a Big Khahuna for a while now! ABSOLUTELY MINT!!

I never write reviews but this restaurant lives in my head. The loaded fries with wings are the best thing I've ever eaten. I have no idea how they get the wings that good. Hoping they come back on deliveroo after this lockdown ends.

I loved this so much I'm posting this review almost immediately after I finished eating. My partner and I went halves on a big kahuna, paprika fries and wings and cheesy fries and I've got to say, this is everything vegan food should be. I've been veggie for over 8 years and I have never had a better texture to a meat substitute than that of those wings. Everything was amazing, flavourful and visually appealing. Wings and cheesy fries were quite spicy but in an amazing way, some places just add heat but this is not the case for this restaurant; the resounding description for everything we had is delicious

I absolutely love this place. The wings are always spot, the sauce on top is delicious and I highly reccomend the cheesey chips!

The nicest vegan wings I’ve EVER tasted. Buffalo sauce 10/10. Fries crispy and fresh. Literally can’t fault it. Also the woman who is running food in Hatch is so so lovely. Service 100%.

I will say that I'm not Vegan, but eating something like that I think I could be in future... Delicious!

Best cheese loaded fries! Great place with vibrant atmosphere. Good quality food in good price. Highly recommended 👌

Went today, family of 5, 3 kids, and everyone was blown away by the food and service. Tasty food, and great staff, what more do you want :-)

Amazing vegan junk food -- I took meat-eating family here and they were blown away. Just make sure you go hydrated and maybe take a container for leftovers as portions are generous and it's decadent/salty AF. Staff are friendly, there's a 15% student discount and the venue (Hatch) is entirely open-air and well-distanced, with lots of other good food and drink options. p.s. if getting takeout, it's a lot cheaper to go directly to Herbivorous than to order through Ubereats (good rule for life TBH)

Burger was great and spicy fries were some of the best loaded fries I've ever had!

That's was a best takeout I ever had ! ' chees fries ' absolutely number one, but burgers 10 out of 10 as well. Unbelievable taste, presentation and they even using paper packing. Highly recommended, I wish to have some pictures but the moment I had my first bite I wasn't thinking straight 😂
