Karibu Vegan Bar & Kitchen @ no23 Stroud in Stroud - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Super delicious vegan food! Great atmosphere and it was lovely to chat with the chef. Thank you Karibu team!

Visited here last Saturday evening, 6 family members all with different Veggie and Vegan dietary requirements. There were lots too choose from but the team at Karibu went beyond and cooked us something off menu to help with Jain needs. The food was delicious and I can highly recommend it.

Very small menu but each dish was a flavour explosion 💥 Loved it!!

This place is amazing the staff are great thankyou for your hospitality.

Food was delicious and unique, although a bit pricey, but very tasty.

Delicious food from Karibu. Everything tasted fresh and each dish prepared with care. The staff were very friendly. We took our food away but the restaurant looked great inside, will dine in next time!

Had a great dinner here with friends, everything on the menu sounded great, ordered a variety of dishes between us and all were very happy. Great quality food and great service too.

Fantastic food on the sun terrace overlooking Rodborough fields. We’re not vegan but loved the food & friendly staff. Well worth a visit. Definitely recommend

Had a great meal. I am not vegan however I loved the tomato curry which had so much flavour. The polenta chips was great!

Myself, my partner and our chihuahua went to twice to Karibu -we were in Stroud for 5 days. We were made made very welcome. Although the choice is limited, the food was cooked to perfection. Very tasty vegan fare, desserts too. Sundi (the owner/chef) was very helpful about other places in the area. A real treat. 😊

I'm not a vegan but this surprised me. Cracking place

Thank you for a truly delicious meal last night. The food was amazing and the staff were so attentive and kind. The tofu burger was awesome

Absolutely phenomenal food We've only ever had take away but every time it has blown us away. We happily travel from Gloucester for this gem in Stroud.

Love how the chef put in efforts to cook the food. I like how the menu are not over crowded with tons of dishes, you get to taste What they served. Love the polenta chips which I personally think a must try dish..

Amazing food, great service and nice range of local beers.

Truly special food, genuinely delicious and great flavours. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough, you will not be disappointed! It’s absolutely brilliant.

Delicious food in a nice little restaurant in the heart of Stroud. Staff are super friendly and welcoming. Would recommend.

Loved the food, and great hospitality

Excellent little vegan restaurant! Incredible flavourful food and nice staff. Lovely vibe if you sit upstairs!

I have had so many disappointing meals eating out so my experience at Karibu was unexpected and very welcome. The food was truly delicious and you would definately not need to be vegan or vegetarian to enjoy one of the dishes. Lovely staff and vibe. Would definately recommend

Wholesome vegan food, we love it! Yum yum yum

Amazing food, what a gem. We had the Massaman curry and Tofu burger - both excellent. Washed down with a Stroud lager.

A dream come true in Stroud. Mouth watering Vegan plant based dishes created with love & it shows. Great friendly service & relaxed atmosphere. A real find!!

Outstanding restaurant! Would highly recommend paying a visit! Food was great, service was excellent and has a very friendly atmosphere! We came over from hereford and it was well worth the journey,we will definitely be paying frequent visits. We had Alice's smokey stew and dumplngs, Mung bean curry, caramelised plantain, and a chocolate delight, everything was cooked perfectly with beautiful flavours, left us feeling happy and full! We really can't pour enough praise on Karibu, perfect experience in every way! Thank you for everything!

Amazing vegan place with great food and drinks!

Great food, really tasty and different. Service first class. Staff very attentive and friendly.

Amazing! We were treated like royalty, nothing was too much trouble, beautiful East African inspired vegan food. Don't miss it!

מסעדה טבעונית, אוכל מצויין. מקום מעט קטן.

A really great little restaurant in Stroud. I found Karibu online whilst looking for vegan places in the Cotswolds and it was lovely. The food was really delicious and is apparently a fusion of the owner's Kenyan heritage and his travels in South America and Asia. We order half the menu and shared it. Massasan curry was creamy and delicious. Nachos with home cooked tortilla chips and smashed plantain, was really fresh. The mung bean curry makes mung bean taste great! The chocolate delights are liked inverted Ferrero Roche on steroids. It's got a home cooking feel in the best way, like every dish has soul and has been made with care. Vegan or not it's really worth checking out!

Beautiful little find enjoyed our meal and sat on the terrace

A must go restaurant. Stumbled upon this place when visiting the local area and was so pleasantly surprised to find this gorgeous place. The owner and staff were so kind and welcoming, talking to us about the food and giving recommendations, even a free starter as we were new to the area. We had two mains and drinks and the menu is so good. It was fully of flavour and really unique. The atmosphere was cosy and I loved our dinner there. We'll be back next time we're in Stroud!

Great vegan restaurant serving with a small upstairs outdoor terrace. Owner was very friendly and welcoming and food was very flavorful. Wouldn't hesitate to return

Wonderful little place. Delicious food, friendly welcoming staff and nice ambience and music. There's a cute little outside terrace upstairs too with a good view. Will be back if I'm in Stroud again!

Very delicious food and everything vegan as a bonus. Friendly stuff and nice ambience.

Amazing vegan food, great flavours and wonderful service!

Beautiful food. I had the samosas and the coriander dip that accompanied them was so sharp and tangy. I also really enjoyed the kachri bateta for the same reason. Wish I lived nearer!

First time at Karibu, everything was excellent, I will definitely be going back to Stroud just to go to Karibu.

Absolutely fantastic food and service

Had a lovely meal, the food was great, and the owner was friendly. It was really nice to hear what the restaurant is about and what they do. 100% Recommend.

Had the plant burger and polenta chips, absolutely delicious. Very accommodating staff

What a great find, well worth making a quick detour from the M5 for! We had the Ghoulash, Sweet & Sour Tofu, Polenta chips (the best we had ever had) and broccoli side, along with a Pineapple Daquiri mock tail and Stroud brewery IPA. We enjoyed the evening sun from the rooftop terrace and were delighted with the flavours, size of portions and experienced great friendly service. We will definitely be back!

Great find - we were looking for somewhere to eat before seeing a play, and came across this lovely place. Great tasty food with interesting flavours and friendly service.

Amazing food yet again. My wife asked for a different side with the burger and the owner accommodated with a delicious side of spicy potatoes. The fritters were also perfect! 5* 😗👌

Just tried a take away for the first time. The food was amazing would recommend the smoky red pepper goulash. The broccoli and rice fritters were a great side dish. I would definitely be going back.

Great vegan food. Spiced just right. Right amount of dishes to offer variety but not overwhelm. Restaurant is lovely- perfect for casual dining, romantic evenings or taking in the sights from the roof terrace.

The food we had on Saturday evening as a takeaway was amazing. I had the pancakes and polenta chips and my husband had the burger. The flavours were truly AMAZING, the texture everything was fantastic!! The staff as well were really friendly and helpful and the chef on another level!! Thank you so much and I wish we lived in Stroud!! We will definitely be back, thank you so much.

As a meat eater this was an amazing experience. Great food, super tasty and a fab ambience. Outstanding 👌👌👌

Had a delicious take-away meal from Karibu - so many varied tastes and textures to explore. We definitely will come again and eat in

Great food, good venue. Lovely owner and staff.

The burger and polenta fries are one of the best vegan meals I have had. Very satisfying, delicious and professionally prepared. Thank you for serving us so close to closing time also! Highly recommended!

Visited having read the reviews and so glad we did. Fantastic lunch and fabulous service. What a gem of a place! Vegan or not this place is for everyone. Very well deserved 5 stars from us!

A fabulous selection of dishes, all of which taste truly amazing, and it's also licensed and you can enjoy a Stroud vegan draught beer too! The owner / chef is always very welcoming and helpful and it is a great atmosphere, partly because the staff are happy and cheerful.

I started with Vegtable samosa's. Followed by bean, couscous garlic bread for main. I had bottle green elderflower presse and a Pineapple mocktail. Vegtable samosa's were tasty flavour improved further with the sauce accomanyment. The 'Lebanese ful and cucuous salad' balanced well together with bean and the couscous. The couscous dish blended fresh and raw ingridents well having the cooked beans and fresh cucumber and diced red onion in the couscous. Garlic bread was delicious, not knowing what to expect other than obviously not going to be a traditional Italian one. But worked well. It being a burger bun lid having spices on, including oregano (thyme, parsley). The pineapple mocktail was sweet, tropical and exquisite while the flavour being sophisticated. It was made fresh to order, Glad I tried the Pineapple mocktail as one of the highlights of the meal. Overall very tasty. Would highly recommended and cone again. This time didn't starter Main, and full. So Maybe another time I'll try Main, dessert to try some of the desserts too.

Omg amazing and I don’t even like vegan food !! Reasonably priced and just really tasty perfectly spiced - so good if you are Local you have to try it

Really great place ! Thanks , the food was delicious

Thumbs Up 👍🏻 to the chef. Delicious food. Being a vegetarian myself , this is by far the best vegan food I’ve ever had so far in the UK. Staff and chef were really polite and passionate about what they do. My fav was : Caramelised Plantain, Spicy Cauliflower and The Indian curry

The food here is consistently outstanding. Every dish I've tried has been amazing and the burger really surprised me today. The chef was able to accommodate a substitute, which was appreciated. Highly recommend! :)

We had a fantastic meal here at Karibu. The staff were lovely and the food was delicious! Definitely check it out whether you’re vegan or not!

Delicious freshly cooked food with friendly, helpful staff. Atmosphere only let down by road works outside the front door. Once the road works are finished then I'm sure the atmosphere will be a 5.

Absolutely delicious cuisine and first-class service. Dog friendly too!

Great tasting food and friendly staff. Will recommend people to try.

Ordered food for pick up when staying in the area for a little weekend break. So beyond impressed with the fact there was a fully vegan place at all, but the food was insanely delicious. Nice options, the staff are lovely and friendly and it only took 20 mins to be ready! I live in London but would come back to Stroud purely for this place, highly recommend!!

Fantastic vegan burger, polenta chips and salad. Top quality ingredients and very tasty.

We were staying near Stroud and struggled to find any vegan restaurants to eat. Karibu was brilliant. Food was delicious and very friendly staff. Very highly recommended!

My 2nd visit to Karibu restaurant in the same weekend! What more can I say....? In my opinion, it is one of best quality vegan food I have tasted. In my first visit, I had mexican nachos with beans which was bursting with flavours. The second meal I had was sweet and sour tofu for starters and cripsy corn cakes with tofu, both of which tasted delicious. My visit couldn't go without a dessert so the 1st time round I ordered a uniquely tasting caramelised plantain with peanut and walnut brittle and icecream. The 2nd time i went for chocolate delight which was indeed delightful with quite a unique concept! Both of these were to die for! I love cocktails!! So I couldn't resist trying a couple. I tried Sangria & Caipirao which is a Portuguese drink. A must try in my opinion! Both were refreshing and I sure was having a mellow buzz ☺ which was pleasant with a scenaric sunset view upstairs in the rooftop terrace. Besides the good quality food, the staff are very welcoming - all smiles and the chef has attention to detail with his dishes, taste and flavours. Definitely recommend it and am sure you won't regret it!!

Delicious food, excellent wine, and good service. The menu has a small selection but there is a nice variety and the dishes they do serve are of an exceptionally good quality. The vegan wine was excellent. The service was good, they were friendly, welcoming and helpful. I will definitely dine here again, I highly recommend this restaurant.

The food was delicious !! thank you

We had our first Magic Bag from Karibu today via Too Good To Go. Absolutely delicious and generous. We will be sure to visit again.

Great food and service. Excellent option if you are looking for vegan food in Stroud.

We had a meal from Karibu tonight and it was fantastic ! The flavours were amazing 🤩 The guy in the restaurant was very informative and friendly. I would highly recommended this restaurant or take out service to everyone!

What can I say other than... Wow! I ordered the Tagine and I was really impressed. The clever combinations of flavours complimented each other really well and the food was so fresh and packed full of flavour. The host San is exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable and helped me choose what to eat as I am a very fussy eater. I will definitely highly recommend as the food tastes great, is healthy, very fresh and reasonably priced too with good sized portions.

First experience of Karibu food tonight. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the delicious food. All the dishes were beautifully cooked to perfection and packed with spices, flavours and textures. I didn’t even miss meat it was so tasty. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend a visit. A little gem in Stroud 💕

The food was absolutely brilliant. An amazing mix of colours and flavours, each dish tasted delicious. The staff member was brilliant expanding on the dish/ingredients. I would recommend to all.

Great food, service and atmosphere, especially the roof terrace!

Amazing tasting food Highly recommended can't say witch one a specific meal was the best because it was all so delicious only had few things from here so far to !

Fantastic restaurant. The food is always super delicious, service is great. You can see how passionate Sandeep is about his food and business. It's always a pleasure to go to Karibu. Very lucky to have this unique little restaurant so close to home!

The food was amazing, the flavours were delicious 😋 would definitely recommend. The staff were really friendly. Good quality, good price.

Karibu was onToo Good To Go. we had such a lovely meal, thank you so much. I really enjoyed the burger, curry and nachos with beans. It is definitely worth a visit and the staff and owner are so friendly. We will definitely be back x

Tasty, simple food - definitely recommend

The food here is almost always a treat. Often surprising, always pleasing.

A great meal (all three of us truly enjoyed our first vegan meal)...great flavours, filling and cooked brilliantly. Looking forward to going again.

Delicious food. Very impressed with everything.

Delicious food and attentive service.

Best restaurant in Stroud. Amazing food. Amazing staff. Amazing atmosphere. Been here many many times and the menu is updated often. Something for everyone. Been here with both meat eaters and vegans. Everyone leaves happy. Can’t recommend enough

Karibu popped up on Too Good To Go and I thought it was worth a try - oh my goodness it was definitely worth the drive across - we had the Cajun burger, the tagine and the curry and they were all absolutely delicious. I look forward to coming back to enjoy more in the future (and trying out the dog friendly roof terrace).

We went last night for dinner. My 11 year old son, who is not vegan and who is notoriously difficult to feed (he only agreed to come to Karibu because it was my birthday), upon completion of our meal he said “that was amazing, I wish I could relive the whole meal!” He must have said how wonderful it was about 10 times! I personally loved that chef and owner Sandeep came out to ever table to check on the meals! The food was delicious and service very good. We don’t go out often, and that was the nicest meal we’ve had in a long time. Thank you!

We ate in this restaurant for the second time yesterday, the food is amazing. The mushroom wellington and gravy are a real food memory. The service is also perfect

One of the best places to eat in Stroud! Great (vegan!) food, great atmosphere and choice of music, great drinks, and friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Simply superb food. I’m a keen but open minded meat eater. I came away absolutely delighted with my experience. Can’t praise the chef enough. Apart from anything else the chips were the best I have EVER had in my life. Go try it for yourself….

Lovely evening at Karibu. Food looked and tasted amazing, and service was great.

Really loved the food and hospitality at this place. A relaxing place.

excellent, creative vegan cooking. Delicious! And great atmosphere. Lots of gluten free options too.

Have had a few Magic Bags from Karibu and they are always so good! Tasty food, friendly service. Yum. So full. Also I love how the owner visits other Stroud foodie places and shares them on his Instagram. Building communities. 🙌

It was my first time ordering from Karibu today and the beetroot burger was delicious! Really enjoyed the food and the staff were really friendly too. Already looking forward to eating here again!

Delicious curry and samosas , with polite and attentive service.

Delicious burgers. I had the beetroot burger topped with sauerkraut and avocado which was really tasty. Thank you!

INCREDIBLE! I will definitely be visiting again soon.

Fantastic food & great service, highly recommend a visit. Polenta chips & Aji Amarillo Mayo are to die for 5*

Just popped in this afternoon with the fam and was pleasantly surprised! It was our first time in Stroud and we weren't sure of the vegan options. The food was full of flavor, the staff was kind, and the ambience calm and laid-back. We'll be back!

Excellent restaurant even if you're not vegan. The food is great and the deserts are spectacular. The kind of place you take people to to impress them.
