Resist! Vegan Kitchen in King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Excellent vegan comfort food. Great friendly service - and helpful too. It’s BYOB, which we didn’t know beforehand but the off licence is only a couple of doors away! We sat outside in the lovely little garden at the back, felt like we had stumbled upon a hidden gem!

From the second we walked past I could tell this place was going to be good. Looking through the window it looked small but don't be fooled there is a middle terrace and an out door area complete with herb garden and flowers. We were just visiting Kings Lynn having never been to Norfolk before we were not sure about where to eat. Being vegan in a new place can be hard but our wandering route took us luckily past this place and we had no choice, we had to go in. Impressed with the artwork we were welcomed in with our dog and sat out the back in the small garden. The guy was cool and friendly and let us know where the local off licence was if we wanted beer (which I did on a releaxed Saturday afternoon). 2 doors down i found some beer and brough it back. Menu was impressive, there was loads to choose from and I could have tried all of it but I went for the Resist! Krispy Chickun Wrap  and was not dissapointed. Generous serving and totally delicious. If I had known in advance I would have tried the primal burger challenge, What an idea. If we had been staying longer I would have gone back for more food. Good to meet other people who care and are doing the right thing. Very delicious, relaxed and fun. If I could give it ten stars I would. Thanks for a great lunch and helping us enjoy our time.

This is the second time we’ve visited this amazing restaurant. The food is delicious, the restaurant atmosphere is great and there is some fantastic art on the walls. Staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be back.

Could hear the owner mocking me for my Religion... Food was tesco beyond burgers, lettuce was wilted and fries were just as bad a quality you could get! Don't waste your time with such a fake reasturant! Does not practice what he preaches! Go to tesco and spend a quarter of what you will here. Atleast then it won't give you the sh**5 !

Absolutely great place, food was amazing and plentiful.

Always a pleasure to come here & to support an independent, vegan business. The service is super friendly, & the food is always delicious. Do not leave without trying a milkshake! Looking forward to our next visit.🙂🔥🌿

The food was perfect and so were the staff. Jack served us all the way through, from taking our booking over the phone to hand making the shakes for us. They couldn’t do enough, they executed and accommodated all out request no questions asked. They were very caring too throughput the whole experience, and I feel each of the three of us was spoken to and listened to not as a group but as individuals making sure every one of our needs were taken care of should we have needed it. Yet again I have to specifically sing the praises of Jack who was the ‘jack of all trades’ (pardon the pun) of Resist. He did everything from being on the phones, to getting us seated and served, taking our orders, plus he knows every item on the menu which was very impressive! He was so charismatic and charming too, so great and refreshing to see someone young, sharp, and passionate about what they do, taking great pride in their work. He definitely has a very bright future ahead of him. But yes, as I mentioned the food was also amazing, plenty of options and each was as incredible as any other. They’ve really got a good thing going here, vegan or not you have to try Resist.

Went last Saturday for early father's day treat. The service was very friendly and all our meals were great and very filling. My daughters especially loved their fries and my kebab was extremely tasty. The vegan milkshakes deserve a mention and should not be missed. I can thoroughly recommend Resist ! And will be back to try the burgers.

Have been wanting to try this place for some time. After seeing it available on JustEat, I thought why not give it a go. I was not disappointed. The RVK House Burger is great and definitely worth the money, even went with an additional onion ring for good measures. Fries, just loads! Amazing food and well worth it.

It's delightful to have a vegan meal that I couldn't do better at home. A vegan is spoiled for choice here. We had milkshakes and kebabs, outstanding and delicious. Just a heads up, they didn't look open (darkened front dining area), we tried the door anyway and found that they were open, everyone was in the back.

Great food and service. Highly recommend, artwork is a bonus

Went here last night - service amazing, food incredible (and fast) Good tunes and cool art on the walls. Next time we're in town we'll be coming back :)

Food is amazing, staff are awesome, and the restaurant is clean and relaxing.

Good food and service. I ordered chickun shawarma, fries & drink which were good however the vegan fried chicken is the best. The breakfast served at weekends was amazing too. Would definitely recommend visiting this restaurant.

Amazing Vegan food! Great staff and atmosphere! See you again soon! Photos show Resist Crispy CHICK’N Wrap on Naan Bread and the Dukk loaded fries! Safe to say we couldn’t finish them!

First visit, as visiting the area and met with a friendly welcome and service. The food was amazing, the wife and I had the Burger meal and it was amazing. Shame no alcohol, but told you can bring your own. Didn't miss it anyway. The meal was lovely and reasonable priced. It's a hidden gem in Kings Lynn, as you could walk past it and not know it was their. Highly recommended. Hope to visit again.

easy to "resist" because i am not vegan

All the hours listed online are incorrect. Every time they say they are open, either on Google, Facebook, TripAdvisor or even their own website say they are open but they don't pick up the phone on either number. They are also closed on Justeat and Foodhub when they are supposedly open. It's a waste of effort trying to order. I hate rating vegan places down as there already isn't enough 100% vegan restaurants around but I had to leave a review on how impossible it is to give them money.

Lovely place with some really great food. The waiter was also very polite and helpful. Food was quick and the place has nice relaxing decor. Will definitely come back again.

We walked past this place and thought why not try something different. We should have kept on walking. The menu which isn't on display consists of burgers or wraps. Served with seasoned fries. The burgers are priced at approximately £15 each. There was no alternative advertised to the fries. The vegan beef burger was quite moist with an interesting flavour and is far better than the vegan chicken. A tiny pot of ketchup or mayonnaise is an extra at £1 a time. Something which really should be included with burger and fries. With Tea and Coffee the bill came to just short of £35.00. To be honest 20 minutes in Sainsbury's buying the ingredients and 20 minutes in your own kitchen would save you money and probably taste better. Hopefully the restaurant will try to be a little more imaginative and increase the range on offer.

Yummy vegan food! We visited at 3pm on a Sunday and had chick’n and bac’n burgers with fries. Thanks for having us!

Absolutely amazing, couldn't rate any higher. The service was super friendly, which is always nice when you enter somewhere new. The menu was diverse enough to cater to a range of tastes, and exciting enough to make you want to order it. So often with vegan food you get relegated to the obscure roasted vegetable curry or lentil this, nut roast that which is fine, but you feel you miss out on what the chef can really offer which they put into all their other foods. You could tell that the place is established on a passion to offer something different and that's what's important. The portions were very generous, and we ordered two burgers with a side of fries and buffalo wings which was more than enough between the two. It was absolutely delicious, and I couldn't recommend it enough. They also offer takeaway if you're in the area which is great. All in all I'd easily say it's a highlight for vegans in Norfolk and everyone should give it a go! Wish I had pictures of my food, but it was all too tasty that I'd scoffed the lot before I thought to. On top of everything the price for two drinks, mains and sides all came to just over £25 which is fantastic value for something so premium. Stop reading this and just go 😁

Fantastic food, fully recommend, meat eaters pls try this place - no animals killed so you can eat delishous food with a healthy clear conscience!

Fantastic my second visit, had a fabulous birthday dinner yesterday. Absolutely love this place and will go again. The people are beautiful. #veganfortheanimals

The only all-vegan eatery in town! I took away two meals to eat at home. The seasonal (Dec 2022) Yule Dirty Beast is scrumptious - a cheeseburger plus Christmasy ingredients like stuffing, turkey, cranberry sauce, two little pigs-in-blankets and even slices of roasted brussels sprouts. Wow! The kofta kebab is also very good and filling, with lots of salad ingredients and lots of “meat” between pieces of flat bread. Friendly service.

Amazing place and brilliant staff

Amazing food , first class staff...I'd give more stars if possible ✨️

Delicious vegan food (and I'm not vegan!) Great service It is a bring your own booze venue, but does have lovely soft drink options.

We really enjoyed our Burger's, the Staff were lovely, Thank you.

Finally managed to get in to eat here after a few failed visits!! Very popular place but mainly in the evening it seems. Who knew that vegan food would be this popular in KL!! 😄 Went at lunchtime and it was very quiet on a Saturday. We were lucky to make it for Mexican week, one of our favourite cuisines! It didn’t disappoint and we had a mix of bbq tacos, meatball taco, KL taco, seasoned fries! The pico de gallo was very fresh and tasty, the tacos were soft and well prepared. The fillings were all excellent, with lovely tasting sauces and flavours. Our server was really attentive and apologetic about our previously three failed visits, mainly due to closures around renovations or being too busy. They very kindly gave us a complimentary bowl of nachos! Which were delicious! Whether you’re vegan or not you should try Resist! The good is great and won’t disappoint! Will definitely be going back!!

Taco weekend. Lovely food and very reasonable prices.

Really lovely food. Great service and superb price. Kofta Kebab was delightful. Definitely returning next time I’m in Kings Lynn.

Excellent food and splendid service. Well done Jack and thank you for your attentive efforts from the moment we arrived to us leaving. BTW the take-away salted caramel cake provided an extravagant supper once home - amazing! We will be back for sure 👍

Absolutely awesome food. FOMO is real. The restaurant is a real gem. Get there, now! :-)

Incredible! Staff were lovely and inviting and the food was some of the best I've ever tasted. Ordered the bacun jheeze burger, donner kebab and hoisin fries; all of it was perfect (especially the fries). We'll definitely be going back next time we're in the area!

Great meal! Really good value! The food looks and tastes brilliant. For those who are vegan but miss meat this is your place! Donner kebab was awesome, the hoi sin duck loaded fries 😋

Vegan cuisine at its finest! Upon entering this restaurant, you are met with friendly faces and a modern yet homely interior. We were celebrating my daughters 5th birthday this restaurant did not disappoint. Atmosphere: relaxing and efficient for a great dinning experience. Music: sets the mood perfectly. (upbeat vibes) Staff: instantly felt welcomed and any requests catered to. Menu and food: all food was delicious and mouth-watering. Experience: From the beginning to the end, it was a pleasure to have had this dinning experience, not only for the exceptional food but also for the friendly staff. Whilst waiting for our orders, the staff offered my daughter a coloring book and pencils which she was delighted to receive. When her meal came out they had placed a candle on her burger ( the candle happened to be her favorite color) which she excitedly blew out. Our group ordered burgers, mezzes, shawarma chicken hummus, chips (which were a big winner) and some vegan chicken tenders (which were off menu but they honored the request). All of the food was some of the best vegan food i have ever tasted and which everything feeling like a lot of passion and heart had gone into it. Prices are extremely reasonable and the quantities are perfect, we were stuffed and got a take out box. In conclusion, we will be visiting this lovely restaurant many more times and hope to go through the entire menu, each delicious bite at a time. Thank you Resist

Great food! great service! Thanks guys!

Lovely lunch here would really recommend pleased to see places like this opening up close to home!!

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal . Friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Massively enormous portions which are really tasty, hand delivered by friendly and attentive staff. I had a fantastic Chickun Schwarma. My mum took hers home in a bag there was so much. Superb, 10 out of 10

The food is always spot on, the quality of the food, portion sizes and value for money is on point. All of the staff are warm, friendly and inviting and always have a smile on their face, service is fast and I would 100% recommend giving Resist a go if your looking for 10/10 vegan food - a big shout out to the chef, Jade, Louis and jack for the exceptional customer service <3

I thought I found my vegan place in Kings Lynn but I was wrong. Long story short. I ordered Quinoa Tabouleh without onion and I specified that I was pregnant and some food just makes me sick, they told me the tabouleh was already done but I could just take the onion out. I said ok. It turns out the onion was so fine chopped that I could not spend 30 min to take the small pieces out. I had waited already some time for my order. So I could not eat the tabouleh ( it was also way too dry). I ordered normal hummus but they told they have got just the Smokey hummus, I asked if that one was spicy the person who attended me told me it was not. Bad news! It was so spicy I had to stop eating .It came with some falafel that was not well-cooked. The only thing I was able to eat was the Flat Bread. And now I have got a terrible stomach- ache. I told them all of that but they still made me pay for everything. So for them the money was far more important than the customer’s experience.This has been by far the most disappointing experience I have ever had.

The food here is amazing, the menu we choose from was adjusted for the current heatwave (39*c) and was so well thought out. We brought a selection of items from the menu so the 4 of us (2 adults, 2 children) could try different bits from each plate. The kids loved everything. No complaints or sour faces and we all cleared our plates. Says it all! The staff are lovely, warm and very welcoming. You get a really nice vibe from their enthusiasm and personality. The chef spoke to us and gave us recommendations too. Honestly such a lovely eating experience. We plan to return when next in King’s Lynn :)

Just had the most DELICIOUS anniversary meal here - the kebabs were UNREAL! The Best vegan kebabs EVER, fabulous value, wonderful portions!!! And the staff are the kindest purest sweetest souls with the biggest hearts! Cannot WAIT to come back again and again!!!! Makes me so proud being vegan coming to a place like this - so worth the 1 hour travel!

friendly staff, very tasty food, generous portions. Loved our visit, will definitely go again

AMAZING 🤩 Gave my non vegan dad some of my kebab and he was in shock at how good it was!

Just had a vegan cheese quarter pounder and my husband the bbq stacker with seasoned/rosemary fries. Omg were these amazing. Whatever your preference for food definitely check Resist! out as they taste like real meat. We will be back very soon to work through the menu. Staff are so friendly and let us know you can bring your dog which is awesome.

Great food, cant wait to return soon!

Great food from nice people. Very friendly. Delicious full plate of food that they make from scratch. All fresh. Really impressed and think there should be a lot more places like this.

Great lunch, good size portions. We had the kebab and Big 'mock ' both delicious. Just hope they get somewhere permanent in Peterborough.

brilliant, really hope they find a permanent space. they deserve it. ethical, delicious and good price. servers and staff friendly and helpful.

When I took my first bite, I experienced that scene from Pixar's Ratatouille where the critic eats the rat's food and has a flashback to his mother's cooking in his happy childhood. Also the staff were nice af

Great kitchen delicious burger. Need to try

Family: two adults two kids 12 & 7 Wonderful cruelty free eatery! Everyone gets a warm welcome and amazing vegan food that you won't believe! Weather you're part of the ever growing resistance against consuming animal products or just after some amazing guilt free grub this place is well worth a visit! Something for everyone on the menu.

We went there today for my Mother's Birthday. My partner and I are both Vegan but my Mother is not, however we all thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and informative about the food and specials. It is a novelty for us to go to an all Vegan Restaurant and we can't wait to return once they reopen! The food was amazing, and we especially loved the KFC style Chickun! My Mum had the Portabello Burger which she loved. Hands down the best service I've received at a restaurant, you can tell the staff/owners absolutely love their job and you can't blame them! Hope to see again very soon, can't wait to try the Wangs (Wings)! Thank you so much for making my Mother's Bday a very special one.

Lovely people, amazing food. So nice to visit a restaurant and not have to worry about accidentally being served meat etc. Sad to hear the Key contract is ending but hope to see you back soon :) xx

Excellent food, brilliant helpful staff and a real happy authentic vibe. Had a lovely evening thanks.

Absolutely fantastic food, lovely atmosphere and the staff are wonderful. Our favourite restaurant by far!

First visit with friends and children early evening 20 April 2014. Food was great really tasty generous portions. The staff were really helpful and friendly. Great cake too. I hope they can extend their lease so we can go again.

Superb food and service staff brilliant and helpful

I've just had the best Vegan meal ever. The location of the restaurant is under the Key Theatre, with views of the river, and next to an ample sized car park. We were warmly welcomed by the staff, and shown to our table. The menu was explained to us, and we were asked is any of our party had special dietary needs. All the food is carefully and ethically sourced. I tried an Ubuntu Fairtrade Cola, which in my opinion tasted better than 'the real thing' . We ordered the Doner Kebab, 2 Portabello Mushroom burgers, and Chickun Bowl and Chickun Wangs sides followed by a Salted Caramel Cake. The taste and flavours of the food was excellent. The meal was well presented, and great value for money. I will definitely go back again.

Great tasting food made by great people. Serving street food/fast food favourites.

Tasty chickun and cake! The owners were lovely too :)
