Veg Bar Brixton in Lambeth - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Mi compañero y yo comimos aquí cuando estábamos tocando un concierto.

Overall very disappointing and we have it 2 attempts... Cold, no heating, water in bathrooms ice cold Lighting we had to ask to put them on, we sat in darkness until then Staff seem confused and look incredibly grubby Food beyond average

Vine aquí con sus amigos dado recientemente comiendo carne y quiera probar algo de comida vegetariana. Yo estaba deseando ver qué tenía que ofrecer! Me quedé bastante decepcionado por la red - el padre verduras no sabor muy agradable (me esperaba más como un bean burger) y el burrito debería haber sido más fresco. Sin embargo, los nachos eran increíbles! Incluso el queso vegano que estaba un poco aprensivo acerca de. Y la torta vegetariana y helado para el postre también estaba deliciosa! Creo que la ubicación es un poco tranquilo, y el bar se beneficiaría de un poco más ruidoso y más ambiente, pero en general lo pasamos muy bien y me gustaría volver a probar otras cosas fuera del menú.

Fuimos allí el día de San Valentín. Ellos estaban llenos. Tuvimos que esperar un poco. Pero cuando la comida llegó, fue el de pescado hamburguesa más increíbles que he tenido. Los chios y repollo también eran geniales. Muy sabores únicos. Los camareros eran encantadores en todo momento. Inshould volver más a menudo. Yo soy vegetariana, y he probado muchos sitios en Londres, y seguramente está en mi lista VegBar Top 10.

Fuimos con unos amigos que son veganos no sabía que esperar ya que mi esposa y yo comimos carne. Nos pareció que la comida era estupenda y sabroso, no podía creer que no era carne a veces. La única decepción fue la construcción en sí estaba congelada y la mayoría de la gente eran sentados alrededor con sus manos todavía. Nos pareció incómodo y desagradable porque no puede relajarse. Pero aparte de eso es un gran lugar para comer.

A great choice of menu, tasty 'junk' food. Friendly staff and a good booze choice with a pool table which makes a great hang out spot. Little bit expensive...

Mi amigo y yo fuimos a verduras en noviembre de 2016 después de bar restaurantes vegetariano de investigar en Londres. Cuando llegamos nos quedamos un poco decepcionados con el ambiente y la decoración, sólo porque parecía muy aburrida. Sin embargo, como la tarde no recoger un poco! Ambos ya ha decidido lo que íbamos a comer, el Chili Dog, que era una m a z i n g. Las patatas fritas eran tan deliciosos, Cajún y la col. . Así que pedí unos segundos! Jajaja. Definitivamente recomendaría ir aquí, deseando volver!

Having only really heard of vegan junk food in a YouTube video once before I went in speculating but left inspired. The menu offered a few dishes that sounded so bomb it was hard to make a final choice. In the end I decided on the burger and was not disappointed. The food was awesome and the atmosphere is pub-like. Interesting place, would go back again!

Fun, cheerful staff and tasty food! Away from the hustle and bustle of Brixton. I recommend the Oreo cheese cake!!

Had a vegan hot dog and my friend had 'The Vegfather'. But the hotdog bread was somehow rock solid and both the sausage and burger tasted very bad. The only saving grace was the chips, which were great. I highly recommend not visiting.

I really do not understand the one star negative reviews, I ate here on Friday night with my boyfriend and we absolutely loved the food! We were happy to find somewhere with delicious vegan food and a cool atmosphere (as there are not that many good vegan places in south London and us vegans get hungry!)... also the cocktails were delicious! Try to ignore bad reviews and try it for yourself!

Don't understand the poor reviews. Popped in for a take away on a couple of occasions, staff are great and food is wonderful

I usually do not write reviews but I feel compelled to for this dinner experience. The food was the blandest, most unoriginal food I've had. Burger patties and "chicken" were obviously Fry's brand. We were missing part of our food and only realised once someone next to us ordered the same thing. Not to mention, the food is horrendously overpriced for what you get.

I was really disappointed with this place. The staff were friendly but that's the only positive thing I can say. The food was terrible. Flavourless tofish and lukewarm chips. The hot dog roll had been microwaved so long it was inedible. It was really overpriced for what we got. Also, as a place that advertises as "100% vegan" the mustard on the tables has honey in it, which makes me doubt the rest of the food as well. Will never go back here.

The food was not as exciting as it could have been. But it tasted good. We were with my son and it was nice that he could chose what he wanted. The beer was nice. Could have done with more deserts. I thought the atmosphere was nice and I liked the fact they support local bands.

Great restaurant amazing dishes and very friendly staff that go out of their way to help will definitely recommend this place to all

I had the detox salad which was basically some spinach and watercress leaf with about 3 slices of apple worst salad of my life, I also had the nachos and they were ok still not very good, I was at least expecting fresh guacamole yet it looked like a pre made on from a packet you can buy at tesco, I was not impressed and will not be returning.

Arrived at the restaurant at my collection time and they hadn't even started making the food- though they did get it to me quickly after realising. I'd eaten here before and really enjoyed the food, but the dishes I got weren't made to the same standards at all, wasn't very happy with my meal. It's really a shame because I want to support vegan restaurants, but feel quite let down by my order.

It's really a shame because I want to support vegan restaurants, but feel quite let down by my order.

I really do like the food here but it lets itself down! The first few times I visited the services was excellent, but recently it's been terrible - slow and just generally bad. Last night I was there and ordered the tofish burger - when it came they'd forgotten the onion rings and the mushy peas. I went to the counter and told them. I was half way through my meal when they finally arrived. A guy then came in off the street, walked up to our table while we were eating and asked us for food! When we said no, sorry, he started getting rude to us and then went on to the next table. The staff did NOTHING. Didn't even ask him to leave. Even when he came back a second time!! We've also ordered tackaway from Vegbar three times and every time they've forgotten onion rings or some sort of side from at least one of the meals. It's also all been stone cold every time - we've had to heat everything up ourselves (I only live 5 mins away!). We decided that we'd only ever eat food in the restaurant after our last takeaway was so bad, but after last night's experience, I'm reluctant to go back at all, which is a real shame because my opinion of Vegbar used to be so high and I still think the food tastes lovely.

We were very disappointed with the food. Not what you expect from a vegan cafe. The food was generally very greasy and tasteless.

So This is the first time I have visited Veg bar and it will be the last... As a non vegan, I came here to celebrate my cousins birthday and thought id give Vegan food ago. I orderd the Vegetable coconut curry, which to my suprise I saw it come out of a plastic container and put in the microwave to warm up...it was very bland...and gave me a stomachache afterwoulds. My mums onion rings were stone cold, and my cousin found a hair in her chips!!! Yes a big long strand of hair!!! Not only was we upset about this... the service was terrible, the guy behind the Till, was very slow, He was in another world and could not get the orders correct... the communication in that place between staff members was not good at all. Service is very very slow...this could be due to them only having One chef, and One waiter working, the other staff members were nowhere to be seen. Its fair to say I will not be returning to Vegbar, and if it does not sort it self out anytime soon, it will be shutdown!!! Such ashame to have such a bad experience on my first time eating Vegan food.

The staff think it is appropriate to wipe the floor with a cloth and then to Handle food without washing hands. The place looks filthy and is actually filthy. I did not eat once I saw them touch money and then directly touch food. I asked for my money back and left. Do not eat here.

It's always a pleasure to visit veg bar.The staff are amazing, always more then happy to go above and beyond to help and make you feel at home! The food is fabulous vegan comfort food with vibrant flavours, so good even my non vegan friends love it!! I will never get bored of coming the veg bar! A Brixton must!!!

Aubergine wraps did taste nice, but weren't anything special. Cocktails were horrible. Overall I thought the food was overpriced. I'm not a vegetarian, but my friend is. I found it striking that most of the dishes on the menu were replicas of meat dishes. You need to pay for what you order straight away at the bar, which is strange considering it wasn't busy at all. I found the staff in general very careless.

Gross place to eat, everything is just frozen disgusting food and very very expensive for the quality of the "food" and the location. I decided to try the tofish and chips... simply horrible!! I paid £10.95 and I ate just the chips, I couldn't eat the tofu, it was too disgusting. I was so disappoint with all of that, and my friend too. We waste our money. Don't do the same mistake!!!

Bad place to eat; it's just frozen food no good originals or authentic food. Very expensive for the location and considering, again, it's just frozen industrialized food; i.e. Fry's, Violife, frozen stuff from chinese market Wing Yip, etc. Don't waste your money or time (they do take a lot to prepare and serve food). Hygiene does not look good either; FSA has a 1 rating of this place, watch out for that.

You pay as you order so we ordered mains and a dessert -it was lunch time and we were the first of only 3 other tables. We waited 50 minutes for our main food which included a coconut curry, when the food arrived it was only luke warm and seemed very watered down - did not taste in the slightest bit of coconut. As we got to the end of our meal, I asked that our dessert be brought over as we were in a rush and had a bus to catch. 10 mins later, no sign of dessert - they had not defrosted it in the 1hour 20mins we were there. A (previously absent) manager apologised for our obvious displeasure and gave us our semi-frozen dessert to take away. I missed my coach and waited 2 1/2 hours for the next. Thank you.

I will not waste my words. The title speak for what Vegbar is all about. Dirty place, expensive and the worst version of Vegan fast "food".

Disgusting, tasteless and gross food. The place is disgusting and dirty, they even served the beer up side down with the bottle submerged inside the beer.????????????!!!! Yes, this is one of the most disgusting things ever, everybody knows that bottles are dirty and rats are peeing there. I hope the food standard agency will close down this place soon. We had to wait 45 min for our meal and they asked us if we were waiting for something haha after they asked us what we have ordered...they apparently forgot it. I had pain in my tummy for two days. Save your money and don't go there.

I always enjoy visiting the Vegbar.They offer a nice range of vegan fast food and I really like their chips which comes with a red, hot spice that makes them delicious.I have already tried many dishes and I liked all of them.Tofish and chips takes a lot like fish and one of my favorite is the Soya Bean wings.The prices could be lower for fast food.Staff is friendly and kindThe only thing that I didn't like is the decoration... That's of course my personal opinion but It would really prefer something more warm and cozy than all white and nothing special.

Super friendly staff, and a menu that offers a bit for everyone looking for a refreshing change of pace. Order at the counter, the staff is super friendly and helpful with the menu. I got the soya bean wings which were paired nicely with the pak chop, slaw and spicy fries. No idea how healthy this was, but it was a great pre-show dinner that left me satisfied. Pool table in the place also- I'd definitely go back!

I'd heard lots about the Vegbar restaurant, so thought I'd finally pay it a visit. Tip - don't be put off by the location, as we weren't sure where we would end up compared to where it's situated. In the end, it was well worth the journey, the staff were pleasant, the choice of food was excellent and the actual food was mouth wateringly delicious. We ordered lots of side dishes as well as a main each, to see what everything tasted like, and were delighted with the generous portions and reasonable prices. Highly recommended, very satisfying, scrumptious vegan options - pay it a visit when you get a chance.

Really enjoyed the food at Vegbar. We've been to a few veggie restaurants and haven't really been impressed but this was an exceptional. The only thing for me was that there was a drumming practise going on downstairs for a gig later on in the night but it was too noisy for me and I could feel the vibrations on my feet upstairs. I will certainly be returning but probably not on a gig night! Recommend using a Tastecard otherwise a little pricey.

Visited Veg Bar yesterday for the second time! Food was next level, staff were passionate, music was on point! The vibes in this place are incredible. I couldn't of asked for more to be honest!!! Everyone seemed to have a glow, was beautiful and the bill wasn't too big either! Will be back for sure!

La mia ragazza è vegetariana e nella nostra ultima vacanza a Londra ha voluto assolutamente passare di qui. Arrivarci non è semplicissimo vista la posizione leggermente fuori mano, a circa 1,3 ,km dalla stazione metropolitana di Brixton. Nonostante la distanza ne è valsa la pena !! Io non sono vegetariano, ma ho apprezzato tantissimo i piatti : un fisch and chips rivisitato e un doppio cheesburger che non avevano nulla da invidiare alle più note versioni di pesce e carne. Il tutto servito con porzioni abbondanti, salse honemade e patatine fritte alla paprika. Il prezzo è buono in relazione alla qualità dei piatti servito, un po' meno forse se si pensa alla posizione decentrata. Il locale si presenta come una tavola calda di una stazione di servizio americana, ma nel complesso risulta molto intima e accogliente, con la cucina a vista. Consigliato a tutti i vegetariano e vegani , ma non solo !!!

Really good atmosphere and the food is even better! Friendly service from all staff and good spot for music gigs

I came here twice in a week with both friends and family. Very satisfied on both occasions! Delicious and filling vegan options that satisfied my need for something other than a salad: (They have great salads too.) my BBQ tofu wings with Cajun friends were tasty, both my friend's dishes of chilli hot dogs with all the trimmings & fries & coleslaw; and my other friend's amazing tofu fish sticks with coleslaw & fries were very well received. Definitely worth a visit.

Can't wait to go back and try some more options on the menu! Even if you are a meat eater you will find something you will enjoy here

Fab vegan food of the burger & fries variety. Great portion size and therefore not bad value. Beer a bit costly but goes along with gentrification of Brixton I suppose. All staff were great. Slightly off-putting greasy smell on entry but don't be put off. Its good! Going to go for the live music soon.

I very much enjoyed this place, always eager to try vegetarian/vegan dishes too try new things and it was all delicious. The BBQ Jackfruit Tacos's were genuinely one of the tastiest things I've ever eaten and the Tofish and Chips was better than regular fish and chips in some ways.

Healthy, vegan take on 'fast/ junk' food.Absolutely excellent choice for vegan and meat eaters.Please try the courgette flowers.Really impressed with the portion size.Highly recommended.

Friendly staff, extremely relaxed atmosphere, and genuinely incredible food. My favorite thing about the menu is that everyone expects vegans just to eat salads, and super healthy stuff, and this is all a healthy take on 'junk' food. Hearty, filling and MASSIVE portion sizes. AND its extremely reasonable priced - bordering on cheap. HUGELY recommend the tofish - my friend and I were concerned we were actually eating cod. Have been twice, once with a group of non vegan friends and they still absolutely loved it. Can't recommend enough!

I've been wanting to come here a while and wasn't sure what to expect after reading some of the reviews on here. I really enjoyed all the food and must say I would love to come back and eat it all again. They have recently released a new summer menu which had the regular options plus some healthier options, however we stuck to the less healthy options. I went with 3 friends and we shared the jackfruit tacos to start as well as some fried courgette flowers. The courgette flower was tasty but the jackfruit tacos were really amazing and we all loved them. For a main 3 of us had the seitan wings and it was also delicious. My friend had the tofish and she loved it. Both came with loads of cajun fries which were great. We had a side of macaroni which was a big hit. For dessert we shared the oreo cake which was a nice sweet end to the meal. Next time we'll be trying the brownie!The staff were friendly and the service was great.Overall we were all really pleased with the food and would definitely go back.

I wanted to like this place, I really did. My friend and I bought Groupon vouchers and were really excited to try the place out as the menu looked great. Unfortunately, the food was not amazing. It's the kind of food you shrug at and say "well it could be worse" and eat it anyway because it's average. Not good, not terrible, but just okay. I ordered the seitan wings as a main with a side of Mac n Cheese but they presented me with a side of seitan wings and I had to ask for chips (which were over salted). The Mac n cheese was bland and forgettable and I commented that Amy's frozen Mac n Cheese was a far cry better. My friend was presented with the Groupon version of the Big Mac which was a much smaller burger. He'd been looking forward to try it for a long time but was underwhelmed. The "cocktail" wasn't nice at all. I went there once and won't go again. Every time I'm asked about it, I tell people to save their money and go elsewhere.

I am a vegan and went with a vegetarian friend. Absolutely amazing meal, we both had the soya wings and chips followed by the caramel peanut butter brownie. The main was incredible, as a vegan I thought I'd given up this kind of food for life but it was incredibly tasty comfort food, and the chips were brilliant too. Would recommend to anyone, omnivores included!

Everything was perfect from a greeting to a goodbye, including delicious food, of course. Such a great atmosphere, great service, the girl who served me was super helpful with the menu and I loved everything she recommended. Definitely coming back.

There aren't many vegan joints as reliably excellent as Veg Bar. The Tofish and Chips is one of my faves, as are the burgers - but I'm still working my way through the menu! Can be pricey, so I don't go as often as I'd like, but the portion sizes are great, the food comes quick and is always tasty.

Visited The Veg Bar in the early afternoon during the week. We were the first ones in so we created our own atmosphere with the aid of the staff who were all very friendly and happy to talk through the menu with us. Two of us are long term vegetarians recently converting to veganism and the third a meat eater willing to indulge a new diet. The meals were excellent in both presentation and taste and represented good value.

I visited this restaurant with a friend - I am vegetarian and she is vegan so it seemed to tick all the boxes for a great meal. Unfortunately it fell way short of this. We ordered and paid for the 2 course 'meal deal'. There are only 3 desserts on the menu and they had already sold out of the one I wanted which was the cupcake.My friend's main course arrived and mine, the chilli, arrived after she had nearly finished her meal as they 'forgot to cook it' - we were offered a round of drinks to compensate. The toilets were not as clean as they might be and I had to ask twice for the ladies' to be restocked with toilet paper - surely this is basic for a restaurant?Bearing in mind we had already ordered and paid for dessert we were rather dismayed when our waiter told us they had run out of the oreo cake - surely they should 'reserve' their last pieces for those diners who had already paid for their order? We ended up getting a refund for both desserts and went elsewhere for some fabulous cupcakes. Overall what should have been a great dining experience was sadly disappointing.

This is a beautiful restaurant with delicious vegan soul food. The staff are fantastic and I recommend anyone looking to get some comfort food to take a stroll down to vegbar. It will make you forget all your worries

Veg Bar is a little quirky bar in Brixton that serves up really good vegan comfort food at reasonable prices. I've had the burger, which was 8/10 and the salted caramel peanut butter brownie, which was 10/10 and one of the best things I have ever tasted in my life (no exaggeration!). The staff are friendly and I'm sure I'll be back many times to try all the items on the menu. I believe they're starting up a buffet as well with less "comfort" foods and more healthy foods which is a great idea.

Turned up here after visiting the vegan fair in Brixton which was packed.Vegan food is really big news at the moment so we left to try and get something to eat. Full up with 75% scruffy vegan eaters it wasn't appealing. No tables free.Whole place just seemed like it needed a good clean. Maybe Sunday lunchtime was not a good time to visit. They looked understaffed and overwhelmed.Needless to say we left another vegan place hungry with no food.Another party was also turned away as you had examples of one person sitting at a table for four.Better management and standards need to be injected fast!

When I went the first time for brunch, was really good! For £11 you could have a big portion of tasty food. But last time, I've found the food overpriced for the portion and quality. I mean the food was ok, but I expected more for the price: £11.50 for 8 small nuggets of soya chunks soaked in bbq sauce with bland salad. On the other hand, the dessert was great! I hope next time will be better!

The chef right now is off the hook. He is making food so tasty and always looks calm. It was great to see the place so totally packed out on a Sunday! While waiting for our burrito and tofish and chips we had the wonderful mexican iced tea cocktail that they make so well. The tofish photographed below, did not disappoint. Just the right side of crispy beer batter with lovely soft inside. The tartar sauce was delicate on the palate. We keep coming back for more because Vegbar serves affordable vegan food that is delicious. Highly recommend.

First time visiting Veg Bar after hearing good things. Was a weekday afternoon, so quite quiet. I had the Tofish and Chips and my OH had the FGV Burger. Food was fresh and tasty. Loved the nori seaweed with the tofish. Had a bite of the burger as well and that was delicious! I would say it was slightly overpriced for the portion sizes, but was still delicious all the same. A good experience if you're trying out vegan food in London. Staff were friendly and helpful, we will probably visit again some time.

The burger and chips I had was good (if a bit oily), but the food is not worth the price (the 2-for-1 deal Tues to Thursday proves it is overpriced). £15 for a burger and tea.The Chef (friendly black gent) was warm and welcoming. The owner/manager however is not. It came across to me this is just a business venture and not a passion, no smiles out of him. He was disinterested and somewhat rude. This is important to me for a start up restaurant, customers should be everything.Could be cleaner - tables were dirty from previous guests. And the ketchup was watered down significantly it barely resembled red. Awful cost cutting in an eatery. As a BIG tomato sauce fan this is a thumbs down for me. Make a burger at home or travel the great distance to Blackcat Cafe.

Went here recently the staff were friendly and it is a nice placeHowever, I'd have to say I found the food to be somewhat disappointing.The menu looked great but what was served was pretty much standard pub food.I had the FGV burger which was 2 shop bought veggie burgers, a few very small bits of lettuce, tiny slice of cheese and a few sliced pickles.not worth the £11.50 price tag!Not likely to go there again when I can get the same dish at a pub for cheaper.

I'd been following the Veg Bar on social media and wanting to go for a while - it was beyond all expectations!! It was by far the best vegan food I have ever eaten. I had the huge FGV burger with fries and my friend had Tofish and chips. The burger was delicious, tasty and filling. I tasted some of the Tofish and it was unbelievable - even though I haven't eaten chip shop fish in batter for 20+ years it tasted exactly like it, but better!! Really can't wait to go back and have that next time. We shared the Oreo cake with ice cream for dessert which was also fantastic! So much choice of main and deserts and also big range of vegan drinks too. Staff were all really lovely and friendly and the service was good. It's cosy with a great atmosphere - lots of space and even a pool table! They even have a bar and venue downstairs to which is available for private hire. Highly recommended 10/10. If you're vegan this place is a must. Good place to eat before going to a show at Brixton Academy too as it's not far. Veg Bar food = amazing!!! :-)

The Veg Bar Brixton is a huge disappointment, poor quality food and service.The actual café resembles a kebab shop, it is very run down and poorly cared for. The ladies toilet was disgusting and there was no soap. The place was empty, even though it was Sunday lunchtime, but this didn’t improve the speed or quality of service. None of the menu is particularly complex, but it still took an hour for our table of 6 to get most of the food we had ordered. The chef only seemed capable of making one thing at a time, so despite 3 of us ordering the burger, there was a 15 minute gap between each one being served. Same with the (dry) mac and cheese, two people ordered this yet it there was a 10 minute gap between the dishes being served?! The food we actually were served was really disappointing. Small portions and high prices, even though it was clear the ingredients were really cheap. Oven chips and plain white buns with a generic patty was the burger. It was poor quality and a complete rip off.One of our table ordered a burrito, which the waitress forgot, this resulted in another half hour wait for the correct order. We also ordered two side dishes which never arrived. When we asked about them we were told the chef had made them but the waitress thought we already had them, so they threw them away. It should be noted that the kitchen area is in the middle of the café, so had the waitress walked two feet she could have asked to double check. There was no apology, we asked for a refund which they grudgingly gave.The entire café, menu and staff came across as lazy and unfortunately fulfilled every negative stereotype there is about vegan cafes and vegan food. I was really excited to go to a purely vegan café, but in reality I would have had a better meal and better value for money just asking for the vegan option at any local pub.

The food is great, and satisfies all of the greasy / meaty / cheesy cravings. FGV Burger is the one - I never liked Big Mac's before I was vegan, but this is just banging. The to-fish is so good as well - I didn't expect it to taste so much like the real deal. I would prefer the food to be served on a bigger plate - as when using cutlery on the FGV (which I know makes me a loser) it is difficult on the small plates. That is my only criticism, otherwise great venue, good atmosphere, friendly staff and best fake meat vegan burger I've had in years.

I went here last Tuesday with my friend after work and we ordered everything!We shared two starters, the Mac and Cheese and the Fish Sticks.Both were so yummy especially the fish sticks it was flaky tofu wrapped in nori and then fried.For our mains we tried the Vegan Wings and Jack Fruit Sandwich. I definitely recommend them both.We managed to find space for the Oreo cake which is amazing and also enjoyed some of the vegan, organic wine. Veg Bar is a really great change from your regular super healthy vegan place if your craving comfort food.Also the waitress with the blue hair and the cook were really helpful and friendly.This is our new favourite spot!

See I really want to give a positive review but the portion sizes were ridiculous! For the amount you pay they don't even fill up the tray of chips, and the salad was nowhere to be seen. The quality of food is great but it's completely inaccessible to the surrounding community because of the high prices and small portions. I can justify paying a tenner for a main if it's a decent size. Unfortunately I won't be coming back here and I encourage others not to waste your money.

I brought my mum here as we are both veggies, and had seen a deal for here on groupon. We were the first people in the restaurant, yet people who arrived later were served first. I believe maybe they just forgot to put in our order, but when chasing this up with the waitress she just got defensive about it. Eventually we got our food! We had the frittata for a starter which was yummy and made from tofu so vegan friendly, the portion size could of been bigger though.For the mains we had the seitan wings which were delicious and a burger which was quite standard.We also ordered cocktails as they had a 241 offer on, both cocktails were lacking in alcohol content, and my mother even mentioned this to the waiter.I think it could be wholly improved by offering larger portions therefore giving better value for money and maybe adding some more innovative and healthy menu items.And service needs to be greatly improved, they definitely don't believe that the customer is always right!

It's strange because with the prices they charge you would think they would at least offer a home made vegan burger party? But no, we have two frozen patties that have been slapped up and cooked and chucked into a supermarket bun. Oh and then charged £12 for it. That's not all - £11.50 for five tiny seitan wings and a few chips? Wow. Now normally I wouldn't look twice at these sort of prices IF THE FOOD REFLECTED THE PRICE. Even the presentation was nothing more than food dumped onto a plate. The cheesecake took ages to come and then wasn't set at all, it was a big mess. The decor is...strange. Posters put up with masking tape? It wouldn't take much to make this place look much better while still maintaining that hipster dive bar vibe that they're obviously going for. Instead they have totally missed the mark, and it just looks like a dingy student flat. Veg Bar - you need to give your menu an overhaul and serve bigger portions for a start, and a couple licks of paint on the wall wouldn't hurt either. It's fantastic that your whole menu is Vegan! But what's the point when every other aspect of the dining experience falls short of even average (and that's being nice!). I don't normally write reviews this bad but I hope Veg Bar reads it and sorts it out ASAP. I won't be coming back until then. And I don't reccommend anybody to come here either. Diaspointing isn't the word..

have been to vegbar multiple times and each time is a treat. From the cocktails to the side dishes to the main meals, everything hits the spot for me. Great service from cheery staff mixed in with the atmosphere of the restaurant makes for a lovely visit. Considering these guys haven't been open for too too long as of yet, i am always impressed with how pleasant each experience is.

I've been here a lot; for takeaway, with my partner, with friends and family. I am always so impressed with the menu choices (I've seen it expand from when it opened) and with the friendly staff. The atmosphere is lovely, there is great music and drinks from the bar are all also vegan which is a real plus. It's so great to go to a vegan restaurant where you can get real feel good food (curry, 'fish' and chips, burgers) instead of just salad and falafel like everywhere else.There can sometimes be a wait for food, but considering how there isn't a lot of staff, and they are doing staff training, it is to be expected and they always apologise if there is any delay. Overall I just love this place and keep going back!

Huge disappointment! I was expecting nice and creative vegan food, instead of that I got a fast food junk. FGV burger is nothing else than cheap, highly processed paties in a white cheap, processed bun, a bit of lettuce and pickle and a sad, thin slice of cheese, with some fries. All that for whopping £11.50!!!! Seriously, what a rip off! You could get better quality in a cheap cafe for a fiver. Even better, go to waitrose and buy vegan paties (which are delicious) and you'll pay £2.50Soya bean wings, similar quality, small seven pieces on a bed of lettuce and fries (too spicy for my gf) , again £11.50!Thanks to places like this, meat eaters will never go vegan!

I had a meal here the other night and found it to be reasonable but really nothing special and compared to other eateries in the area and slightly on the pricey side for what you get. Not keen on all the meaty titles to vegetarian choices. I had really wanted to like it as I am vegetarian and live locally but feel I can eat for less and better elsewhere, that said I may visit again

We went here for lunch as my daughter is a vegan and the on line menu looked ok.The table we were given, in the corner of the pool room was broken. It was circular, the longer we were there the wider it separated down the middle! The menu wasn't as good as was seen online. My son opted for the veggie burger but there wasn't anything I or my daughter wanted so we opted for dessert instead. These were very small and pricey, as was the burger. It took ages to arrive. I ordered a green tea and got peppermint. (yuk!) If you're looking for a vegan version of a greasy spoon then this is you you..

The menu offers a really creative array of choices - we went for Tofish and Chips alongside the vegan wings and I was especially impressed with the fish! It is wrapped in nori and battered which makes it really flavoursome - it feels like a lot of thought and planning has gone into emulating cruelty free versions of some of my favourite dishes! The portions are generous, the service was good and the staff are polite. In addition to this there is a whole wall dedicated to Morrissey and a pool table for some fun after dinner activity! The restaurant is cute and I will definitely be coming back to try some other options on the menu!

Will definitely be visiting Veg Bar again! Amazing food and very friendly service :) thank you for a lovely vegan food experience!

I ordered two FGV burgers for delivery, wasn't sure what to expect. We've literally just finished them and am writing a review already. AMAZING. Speed of delivery, the friendly chap who delivered and the food was incredible! Hard to believe the burger had no meat! Best veggie burger I've ever had. Spot on, we'll certainly be back

Between my and my boyfriend we had the bbq jackfruit burger, FGV burger and the tofish sticks, all of it was delicious and I've told anyone who will listen about the veg bar.

Soooo.....full......I.....could..... Burst! Someone please bring an industrial crane and ex strong harness to support my weight in food! Many thanks Veg Bar for your influence to gorge with your menu! HahaThe food was fantastic. Enjoyed all of it. Went for a quiz night meet-up but got distracted by the menu! There was a mix up with my order but the staff were very helpful and apologetic. Lovely atmosphere and me and my cousin enjoyed the music! Well worth travelling for! Thank you VegBox and we will see you again soon!

I've been here twice now, but this review is for last night (new chefs/management since my first visit). I am a meat eater and I enjoyed everything I ate! A friend and I shared the Mac and cheese and the tofish and chips. The chips and greens were lovely, the 'fish' was lovely and weirdly very similar in texture to actual fish, the Mac and cheese was slightly bland, needed more seasoning. The Oreo cake was rich but lovely. My other friends had the burger (I loved that it looked like a Big Mac I thought it was funny), they also had the nugs which I didn't try but they looked great. Will definitely go back with my vegan friends! It's a cool space and they seem to have bands downstairs, which is nice.

Veg Bar you've smashed it again.!!! Your Tofish is divine and the FGV burger is smashing! Vegan junk food at its absolute best!The Mac and Cheese is a little bland, mustard would really help it. However, the nugz are to die for.... And the Oreo cheese cake ♥️ wow. This place is great for dinner regardless of your dietary preferences!

The food is amazing here, even the non veggie we were with loved it. Between us we had the BBQ Jackfruit SW, Mac & Cheese, FGV Burger, Nugz, Fish Sticks (basically everything sounded amazing and we wanted to try as much as poss) and the Ice Cream and Cheesecake to finish. Everything was delicious and filling, proper comfort food. Good value too, especially for London standards. Staff were all lovely and attentive, which bought the whole experience together. Thank you Vegbar :)

A small but well chosen menu of all vegan food. Service was relaxed but the staff were very friendly and the food was amazing! If you want some great vegan food in London - look no further!

I really enjoyed the food and the organic wine but the service left a lot to be desired. The waitresses were slow and really not on the ball, I had the pleasure of meeting the manager just before we left as I had been overcharged by quite a lot and he just did not seem to care.Real Shame guys you have a gem in your hands polish up the service and I will come running back.

Very wholesome vegan food, great flavour & very tasty! Veg Bar also hosts live music underneath the restaurant, supporting the local music community - makes the Veg Bar a very special place indeed! Worth checking out!

For a non-vegan I have a slightly unreasonable soft spot for this place, but I think it is great. The staff friendly and up for supporting local causes. The space has all the hall marks of an old school hang out - pool table, dark punk basement, posters ripped out of Kerrang and an impressive list of events. It reminds me a bit of queer spaces like First Out and the Oak Bar to be honest, given that it isn't an explicitly queer space this probably says a lot about how welcoming and relaxed Veg Bar is. They make great breakfasts, great desserts and I was extremely impressed by the vegan fish and chips. It is also nice to know that all my vegan buds can drink everything at the bar.Full disclosure, I've worked with Veg Bar - they let me use the basement to run a benefit night for the Lesbian Immigration Support Group - and am about to hold another benefit there for Movement for Justice. These guys are are the real deal - vegan punk community sweethearts. Even if they do insist on having that horrifying poster of Morrissey holding a baby up.

Friendly staff, interesting vegan junk food menu (no hippy stuff), great music, great beers - still new and evolving so each time I've been it's got better. Great to have a vegan place in South London and am totally rooting for these guys.

I ordered a delivery from Deliveroo. On the whole, the food was delicious and full of flavour! We had fish & chips, butternut squash curry & seitan wings (nuggets) and fries. The curry was good. The nuggets were great. Fries were a little soggy but tasty. Fish was delicious! The only reason I didn't give you 5 stars is because of the portion size - I had 3 mouthfuls of mushy peas with my fish, there wasn't much rice with the curry and there wasn't really enough chips. We were all still a little hungry afterwards. I would be happy to pay £40 again as I can see you obviously only use the very best meat free produce which is expensive...But skimping on the cheaper ingredients is a bit of a let down... Give us more chips, rice and peas please!

I've had the pleasure of organising some live music shows at Veg Bar and each time I go there it just gets better and better. The food is always exquisite and well presented, the beer is VERY cold and the atmosphere and bon homme is second to none.

I live very close to this, and so was hoping to find a new Tulse Hill gem; I was sadly disappointed. Starting with the service, the Manager was nice and friendly (even telling us about all the other Vegan Bars we could try in London!) but our other waiter was very poor. He kept leaning over me to grab things off the table, and never brought me my change after the meal! As for the food, as it is Vegetarian/Vegan I was expecting, well... vegetables. Instead I got a dodgey look Big Mac burger that looked like the ones you get at 4am at the back of Roosters Spot. Then a whole bunch of soggy sightly warm fries. the lettuce in the burger had seen better days, and the gherkin was suspiciously floppy. We had dessert (me a Hot Chocolate Cake) which sounded lovely, and was at first, but the actual cake was very over cooked (It seemed like one of those microwave cakes you see on Buzzfeed) and actually hard at the bottom. The overall cost of the meal came to £18 each (£20 for me as he decided to take my change as a automatic tip!) for a burger, some fries and cake in a espresso cup. Not good value at all!Its sad because I was really rooting for this restaurant, but it really has a long way to go before I recommend this to anyone or attempt to go again. It needs to look at it's menu and think harder about what/ if anything is its USP- because at the moment, what I took from the restaurant is a dodgey burger and poor service :(

Think vegan food is dull and uninteresting? Veg bar forces you to think again! The mac and "cheese" here is phenomenonal and my partner - who dearly misses burgers and had never been satisfied by the bean variety - couldn't stop swooning over the FGV burger, which was every bit as delicious as the real thing without any animal products in sight! I am fast becoming a regular and if you have any sense you should too - vegan or not!

We've been to this place a few times. The staff are always friendly and welcoming.This time we've tried out the veganuary menu which included the best Tofish (vegan battered fish) I've tried. I have to admit it was even better than the excellent coach and horses in soho.Great addition to Bristol/tulse hill.

My girlfriend had her birthday dinner here, and the staff did a fantastic job catering for our huge party of 20 people! They set us up in the basement, which we had to ourselves. We had a private bar down there, which was staffed for most of the night, and were able to play our own music as loud as we wanted!! Only downside was that the place was pretty cold, and this had a knock on effect on the food, which had cooled drastically by the time people started eating! It was a particularly cold night though. Super friendly service, and super tasty food! Our crowd also included quite a few meat eaters, but the menu and food seemed to please everyone! A good place to experiment with some veggie food, even for carnivores!! And the cocktails were poured very generously!! I would recommend to anyone!!

We went there for my birthday. Booked the table but when we arrived there was no reservation for us. Then when we saw menu it was another disappointment. Very limited! Not as advertised on their website. It was Saturday evening but not crazy busy and we had to wait more than an hour for food. Two dishes from our order were missing. So two of my friends had to wait another 20 min for their meals. They were offered drinks as an apology which was nice but I guess it is not a big deal to prepare correctly food for 7 people not 27 so that they can eat together at the same time. Anyway food was poor. Nothing that I was expected (lots of fresh, home-made, tasty, healthy food). Instead everything was deep fried and luke warm. Very very disappointing! Never go back!

The meal and experience was so bad, it's almost funny. First we waited 45 minutes for our food then what arrived was just gross.I ordered the coconut and sweet potato curry which was missing sweet potato. My large portion of rice was cold, I told the waitress then waited 5 minutes for a tiny bowl of hot rice. My girlfriend ordered Mac n cheese (which oddly came with chips). It tasted like watery, cheese liquid on cheap pasta. The side order of nugs were actually quite nice and I would recommend that except for the fact I would never suggest anyone go to this place for food. It was like food you made at school when you were 12 and brought home to your parents (and then charged them a tenner for it!)Absolutely don't bother.

Had come from North London on a recommendation. Easy enough to find from Brixton tube. The place itself is horrible: ice cold (scarf on the entire time - I've no idea if they even have heating), a table that half collapsed with every movement and the whole thing just kind of lacking and vaguely disgusting looking. Vegans aren't lentil-shovelling, penitent beings anymore - we deserve better and are getting it from many places other than here. However, the staff were really nice. I think it was the manager who mostly served us, who was running around as it got very busy very suddenly.The food was all kinds of bland. My boyfriend had the burger which, I'm not even joking, is the Vegetarians Choice 6-for-99p frozen ones. That's the kind of garbage we eat at home if we're skint and lazy. Not something you pay £10 for.I had the 'wings' which were OK but really chewy. I was really hungry as I'd been looking forward to going here so ate it all. The dessert was good - ice cream rolled in something I can't remember. That, sadly, was the highlight.The bill was close to £40 for both of us (two £10 mains [a January 'deal!'], two bottled beers [draught not working], one dessert) which, had it been worth travelling for, I would have been happy paying. I don't think it's all bad, but I do think there's a lot of room for improvement. The staff were all friendly (and said hi and bye) and the manager seems to know what's up, I just hope they get it together because people deserve better than what they're offering at the moment.

I went here today and I really really REALLY wanted to enjoy it, however It was a challenge....-First impressions was that the place was closed, however it was open. Staff were very friendly but the place is not very appealing. I'm not a decor snob , and this place has clearly gone with the current trend of taking over an old place and not changing a decor but it didn't work. It was also cold and felt unclean.-Menu was not as advertised on their website.There was a January "sale" on where all main courses were £10, when I asked the waiter was how much they normally were she stated between 8 and 11 pound (maybe this doesn't include sides but still not a great deal)-I ordered Mac and Cheese with fries and greens , my two friends got the burgers. I watched as the staff got the people before me orders wrong and gave my order to another table and then brought it to me ( not great to see!) and then we waited another 5 minutes for the burgers.-Food looked semi appealing. I was expecting from the research I had done for it to be tasty comfort vegan food. It lived up to being vegan , I hope but other than that it was not impressive. My Mac was dry, and didn't come with pesto, when I asked for it they gave me some but also mention they had taken that off the menu (just not the ones they had given me). The fries were nice, but just fries. The vege burgers looked like Big Macs (debatable if that's a good thing or not) they tasted ok, but the parties tasted like regular frozen ones and the presentation was grim.I want to point out I am used to vegan food, and away that Mac cheese without real cheese OBVS won't taste the same.To sum the food up its kind of like bad student food, the kind you expect to get if WEtherspoons were to do vegan options!- The staff were lovely , and I feel bad that I didn't enjoy this place, but we made such an effort to travel there and it just didn't live up to any standard. Service was slow and our waitress wasn't switched on. Sorry! Would make a point of NEVER going back.

I came here for a New Year's Eve party and walked past the place 3 times before realising it was the correct place! Inside the team take orders and cook in front of you. The list of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks is extensive but the food is quite expensive for what it is. I had a bizarrely-named Fat Gay Vegan burger, which I'm afraid I can't recommend, especially at 8 pounds sterling! It is edible but pretty tasteless and no sides are given - exactly like a meat hamburger from the local competitors apparently but I expect much more from vegan restaurants in London. I will visit again to try the other foods, which will hopefully impress me more as this place is good for other reasons.There is a dance floor downstairs, which has a fair amount of space. The toilets range from fairly disgusting to barely sufficient; it is exactly like a student disco! There is nowhere to put coats etc, except on the back of chairs.The saving grace is that there is a feeling of fun around the place and you get the feeling that the staff are restraining themselves from dancing on the tables!I would recommend it as a nightclub. The dance floor downstairs is of a good size and cosy and the vegan alcohol is plentiful and not too overpriced. Don't get me wrong, I had a great time but it does not seem to be a good restaurant.

We visited for dinner as part of a large group. Service was friendly. Me and my boyfriend both had tofish and chips. Tofish was lovely and crisp, beer batter was tasty. the cajun chips were a bit of an odd combination but were ok. Nugz (vegan wings) were great and the burgers looked good too. Will definitely be back.

I came here via a groupon deal with my mum, I am a vegan and she isn't but we both loved it here, the service is wonderful and my Vietnamese salad for starter was amazing! Portions are great, love the fact that this place supports vegan food and I would highly recommend the Vegbar for the food and atmosphere!

My wife and daughter are vegetarian and we decided visit the Veg Bar in Tulse Hill.First impressions are that it looks like a cafe, a bit dull and plain. We were shown to our table and given the menus. My daughter had a Groupon voucher and when the waiter saw the voucher the menus where taken away and replaced by the Groupon menu. A much smaller selection and we were told that the portions were smaller. We ordered two soups and a Vietnamese salad as starters which took almost an hour to arrive. We were told the soups were pea and leak but where actually a very bland potatoe soup and the salad did not have a hint of Vietnam. It was just a small salad with some oil. My wife and daughter had the Mac and Cheese which the menu said was, " homemade creamy macaroni with fakin bacon, fresh pesto and seasoned Japanese breadcrumbs".Both were very disappointed with the small portion of macaroni and very little cheese, there was no fresh pesto and very few breadcrumbs. With the main menu it came with Spring greens and Cajun fries, with the Groupon menu it came on its own. My veggie burger was good but it is difficult to get a burger wrong. The whole meal took almost two hours, far far too long to prepare such simple food in an almost empty restaurant. We had ordered a take away for somebody who couldn't make it and the final straw was that when we went to leave they had forgotten about the take away and we had to wait for another ten minutes. You would have thought that if a restaurant specialised in vegan food they would have made more if an effort to produce good vegan food with decent service. Some of the rap msic that was played was not suitable for children and given we were there at 6pm was a bit surprising. Finally, the Ladies toilets were filthy and absolutely disgusting. A very disappointing evening.

we had dinner here last night and were really impressed. the atmosphere was good, fun music, friendly staff and more importantly tasty food. the Vietnamese salad for starter stood out - really fresh and tasty. for main the seitan wings were delicious with a real kick in the hot sauce. the mac n cheese wasn't all that cheesey really but the chips it was served with were nicely spiced and flavoursome. the crunchy ice cream was really tasty!all in all we enjoyed the atmosphere and will be returning. it's nice to find somewhere that has such tasty vegetarian/ vegan food and a good atmosphere. this place didn't take itself overly seriously as some vegan places tend to do and just seems like a really relaxed place.A chap called Keiran was also running a quiz which added some entertainment for the evening and was really well done. all in all, definitely worth a visit, even if just for the seitan wings!!

Absolutely brilliant, hands down the best takeout we've ever had. Can't wait to try the restaurant in person.
