Vegivores in Reading - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Delicious Vegan food, friendly staff and cosy restaurant. One of the best Vegan places I've been to.

Truly tasty. 👌 Vegivores is a vegan vegetarian heaven ✅

Friendly staff, slight wait for service but understandable on a busy Father’s Day brunch period. Excellent food and coffee, not cheap but good value. The breakfast was really tasty though no longer includes the scrambled tofu and the toast was plain rather than chunky sour dough though overall an excellent meal. My meat eating family were more than satisfied with their vegan boss bowls and I appreciated the choice of hot sauces!

Lovely food and Chase was a very attentive waiter

Love coming here everytime I'm in Reading. Staff are always so friendly and food is absolutely fantastic. Would recommend to everyone!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed redeeming our "Vegivores" loyalty points that we've accrued via the Yollty app. We'd always intended to save up our loyalty points to use for the Afternoon Tea as it's not available on the menu (understandably so as it must involve so much preparation alongside all the other offerings from Vegivores). We both knew that it was going to be fantastic, but it even managed to exceed our expectations! Everything was special, but there were two stand-out items for me; the Coronation Chickpea on toasted sourdough and the blini. The Coronation Chickpea was the very first thing that we ate and I was sure that it would be my favourite thing from the Afternoon Tea. It was stunningly good. However, I was *even more* blown away with the blinis. I can't describe just how good that was. The layers of flavours and the textures was exquisite. I won't go in to much more detail than this, other than to say that I would *definitely* recommend this to other loyal customers who manage to get enough loyalty points to enjoy this. Again, we were well looked after by the staff. It was a pleasure to chat with Kevin and Lauren. And as always, the chefs never get the plaudits they deserve despite it being their food that we always enjoy so much. They are unsung stars! Thanks very much to everyone at Vegivores ... we'll be back again soon!

To be honest I wasn't here, I was at the butchers next door and that's probably not what potential customers want to hear ( but Google tracked me to being outsite and asked for a review). It does look a lovely place to visit ! 😋

The best vegan restaraunt I have ever been too.

The best vegan food in the local area- everything is delicious!

Extremely tasty food - even if you’re not vegan / vegetarian you will enjoy it. Loved going there with friends for a birthday lunch.

We ordered takeaway one night and came in for lunch on our way out of Bournemouth. Our server was so friendly and patient with our kids. There was something for everyone, I loved the crispy gnocchi and satay bowl. The home made desserts were so rich and delicious!

Just perfect. You don't have to be a vegan or veggie to enjoy this amazing food. If I lived in the area, I would be eating here every day.

Really lovely food, lovely atmosphere and friendly service! I am veggie, one of my sons is veggie and the other has a dairy allergy, so this was an amazing restaurant that we all loved!! We were served by Sam. Thank you 😊

Fantastic meal, super friendly staff (Sam), highly recommend can't wait for our next visit.

My favourite restaurant without a doubt! I’ve been eating at Vegivores for years now and it’s safe to say I’m addicted! The food is the kind of food you take a bite out of and instantly think “wow” and start doing a happy dance with your shoulders. Fresh, good quality feel good food. Their consistency is unmatched when it comes to the quality of food and the level of service. I’ve eaten in off of their regular menu, special menu when there’s a theme/event, ordered on Deliveroo, collection etc and I’ve had an amazing experience every single time.

If I could give 100 stars I would! I’ve visited the Bournemouth Vegivores and the Reading Vegivores and both places were so clean, totally welcoming and the food is stellar. My fave thing to order is the biscoffle.. that lil thing is a work of art. Would always recommend it.

Very lovely and welcoming place

Working in area and out alone I wanted to go veggie or vegan with nice food and a chill atmosphere. Definitely made a great choice. Wine chateau rochecolombe delightful, the sour dough and butter… how can bread taste so good, my main course was enjoyed and the truffle for dessert ( I ordered just one but was so good I ordered another one to take home)! My waitress Yollty busied around managing the whole restaurant on her one with a big smile and super efficient! All in all definitely a recommendation from me.

Vegivores is a very nice place to eat in .The food was amazing! The ice cream was delicious and so was the wrap i had. It was one of the best places i have ever eaten in.

Had the peanut crunch salad, mac&cheese, and the shroomy toast, all were wonderful. Full of flavor and super fresh. Easy, open seating and the folks who work here are quite cheerful and pleasent.

Banging burrito to take away. Top notch coffee as well. Will definitely go back😉

The best restaurant in Caversham. I'm not even vegan but I enjoy the creativity of vegan/ vegetarian food and love going here as the food is delicious. It's very refreshing to have vegan food that is actually good quality, inventive and flavoursome without overdoing it or just giving you big lumps of soggy tofu or dry seitan. We have brought others here who have also said the food was really good. The decor is lovely and tasteful and sitting outside on a sunny day is lovely as they open the doors up so you can enjoy the decor and sun simultaneously. So far I've tried the vegan mac and cheese which is my absolute favourite, the Korean bulgogi mushroom which were full of flavour, although I wasn't a huge fan of the potato salad but I think that's because I wanted a hot side not a cold one so not so much the flavour being an issue, and the strawberry pancakes which were absolutely massive but delicious and great presentation. Servers have always been very lovely and friendly, we recently had (I believe their name was) Chase (greenish hair) who was so friendly and efficient despite it being a sunny Saturday brunch and seemed to be the only server for outside so was doing a fab job.

Outstanding food and service Thank you 🖐️🙏

As always, the staff are welcoming, friendly and enthusiastic. The food is delicious and well presented, with good sized portions. The beer is excellent, too. This is such a good restaurant. We need more like it!

Delicious healthy food cooked by people who care and with an excellent service.

Delicious food and great service by Sam and Lizzie! The cocktails could have less ice.

A very nice atmosphere and good food.

Fantastic food, beautifully presented. All vegan. All deelish...! Staff were delightful too. Try the hazelnut truffle dessert whilst you can; it's outrageous! Vegivores is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 😉

Stopped for lunch. The atmosphere and the staff were great! The food was delicious I had the Mac and cheese which came with a dressed salad it was absolutely delicious I think it’s one of the best things they have in their menu. Perhaps the best vegan Mac and cheese I’ve ever had. My partner had the burger which was also very good. The tofu was well prepared.

Excellent food and impeccable service! Chase went above and beyond with friendly chat and great recommendations, and the new menu options were excellent alongside older favourites. It has been a while since our last visit, but looks like real care and attention is being poured into all that they do, and we will definitely be back again soon.

Another Vegivores meal, another 5* review. This place continues to maintain exceptional standards. It is without question our favourite restaurant and I would have breakfast, lunch, and dinner here if I could afford to! The staff are always very friendly and the food is faultless. We attended the restaurant tonight (04/05/24). This is the first time we've been since the new menu. It still has the classics such as the Macaroni Cheeze, Crispy Gnocchi, and Biscoffle. However, my wife and I's choices included trying some of the newer options: Drunken Knots, Masala Butter Hispi, Green Goodness Bowl, The Boss's Bowl, and White Chocolate Fondue, and 3x Hazelnut Truffles (plus 2x slices of cake to take-away to enjoy with a cup of tea tomorrow). My wife and I shared the two starters (Drunken Knots and Masala Butter Hispi). I loved both, but the Drunken Knots: Oh. My. GOD!!!! This is an instant favourite and I will definitely be ordering this for my starter during my next visit. I really hope that this can command a permanent place on the menu like the Macaroni Cheeze and Biscoffle have. It's an absolute knock-out starter. The Masala Butter Hispi is gorgeous, too, and a very good portion size, but I would have to give the nod to the Drunken Knots as it ticked all of my boxes! Mains:- I had The Boss's Bowl and my wife opted for the Green Goodness Bowl. Again, we both tried the other's main and were extremely impressed with both dishes (again!). The flavours are spot-on and well presented. I had to stop myself from licking the plates spotlessly clean (only because of being in public! If I were eating these dishes at home, the plates would be spotlessly clean by the time I'd finished eating them!). Desserts:- My wife chose the White Chocolate Fondue and I decided to plump for 3 Hazelnut Truffles with a black Americano. Now, I'm not generally a massive fondue fan, but I enjoyed the taste that I had of my wife's dessert. My truffles were delightful alongside a nice coffee and a nice way to round off my meal. My wife loved her White Chocolate Fondue but was getting full, so has brought some leftovers (marshmallow, pretzels, and shortbread) home to enjoy tomorrow. We absolutely adore Vegivores and they continue to excel. If I had to try and think of something that may have made our experience infinitesimally even better, it would have been to have had the option of the Crème Brûlée that used to be on the menu. By no means is this a criticism as we loved our meal, but I was in the mood for a fresh, light dessert and the Crème Brûlée that we've previously had at Vegivores would have fit the bill perfectly. We want to mention how wonderful the staff were again. We had three people serving us tonight and they were all absolutely incredible. The front of house are always so friendly and accommodating, and help make our visits a pleasure. Also, I can't finish this review without singing the praises of the chefs who have always produced exceptional food every single time we have eaten at Vegivores. We're so impressed with Vegivores that we have already decided to make Bournemouth our next seaside trip this Summer so that we can eat at Vegivores there.

Pleasant atmosphere, nicely laid out. Friendly staff.

Great food and service, I had the bagel and it was amazing! Highly recommend

First time visit to Bournemouth venue and have already booked to come back. Relaxed vibe, great service and food was incredible. Had a freebie try of potato milk and already searching where to buy more! Husband is a meat eater but he loved everything especially his curry!

Great service and staff very polite.

Really lovely cafe. The staff were so friendly and made a big fuss of the dogs which was nice. The food was exceptional. You can tell a lot of thought and love went into the menu. Will definitely be back 😊

Amazing food and great atmosphere for a quite Sunday night dinner with a friend. We had a really lovely night. I especially liked the range of caffeine and alcohol free drinks. Only criticism was that the staff seemed distracted by cleaning and didn't really check on us. We ordered seeds and olives to eat while we waited but it all came with our mains which was a bit odd. Loved it though and will definitely be back.

Spot on all round. Great food, great service and nice atmosphere

Rarely leave reviews but I've been a few times now and everytime the food has been fantastic, and the staff have been great. Highly recommended!!

It was quiet in the restaurant but they really welcomed us and it didnt feel like a flat atmosphere at all. The food was fantastic - the Korean BBQ mushrooms were proper delicious, and the sourdough with roasted garlic was, as always, amazing. Wine is very reasonably priced, and the service was really friendly and attentive but not intrusive. I've not been in for a while, but tonight reminded me while I used to come fairly regularly - we will go again soon!

Great vegan food and friendly service. Lots of choices for brunch - we are very last bit. I'm the only vegan in the family but all of the group really enjoyed the food. We will be back.

Seen this place a few times and thought it more a food place than a cafe. As it was wet and cold, I enquired within that I just wanted a place to read and have a coffee. The staff were very welcoming and excellent in all regards, simply offerring me the drinks menu and table served with enough time to digest what drinks were on offer before taking my order. The oat latte was superb and generous, the space warm and welcoming, just what was needed. The food that came out for others looked tantalising, enough for me to come back here when I am in Reading again to try.

Visited for the first time with friends for brunch and highly recommend. Menu is varied with plenty of options. Ingredients are clearly fresh and high quality. Bonus points for being dog friendly and the Guinness brownie. Look forward to returning soon! :)

Awesome service and absolutely delicious food. The beetroot latte is a must try!

Never fails!!. Food is always great, service friendly and efficient. Would go again and again...

We Just had the most amazing mothers day morning/afternoon at vegivore! Sarah's customer service is another level and what a beautiful human! Food was absolutely delicious and a great portion size. I've got to say this is now our favorite vegan restaurant in Bournemouth! Congratulations on smashing vegan food out the park! An absolute must visit !!!! Can't wait to come back... 🙏🥰 🤗🙏

Loved the food; first time visiting and so lush! An added bonus we were able to bring our pooch too 🥰 thanks!

Excellent Mother’s Day lunch today. Really lucky to have this place in Caversham!

Great experience at this cool independent restaurant. Busy Mother’s Day but excellent service and food. I’m not a natural vegetarian/vegan but I totally enjoyed this and would recommend!!

Amazing food. The best vegan mac cheese I have ever eaten. Great ambience and service, despite it being busy. Will 100% be back.

Worst place in caversham ! Manager so rude and mean. Never seen someone like her ,who doesn't care, who ignores and ofends you

Excellent lunch. We had the Vegivore soup which was delicious. Staff were warm, friendly and helpful. Thank you it was a real treat. We will definitely be back!

Great coffee and cake at this new Bournemouth restaurant. Can't wait to come back soon for lunch or dinner, the menu looks fab.

The best vege food in reading! Great setting, amazing staff and fantastic food!

With a beautiful ambience, a must try place in Reading for all vegetarians/vegans! The hot chocolate with cream and marshmallow was an absolute delight! The macaroni cheeze was very tasty.

Loved the complete experience Staff friendly Chairs comfy Savour food healthy and very tasty Sweets deliciousness Thank you Vegivores They asked about allergies like they cared, Beautiful menu layout - esp cocktail options, Boss bowl crispy kale had great crunch, Biscoff Waffle dessert is to die for.

Wonderful Vegetarian Restaurant in the heart of Caversham, Reading. My wife and me have been coming to this place for the past few years, we absolutely love the food ( even if I am certainly not Vegetarian nor Vegan ) amazing ambiance & atmosphere and fantastic customer service from a super friendly and professional staff. This time we came on a Sunday afternoon. We went for the BOSS BOWL ( amazing with brown rice, cheek peas, crispy kale ) and the CRISPY GNOCCHI to die for! I also treated myself to a nice glass of French red wine. We had a wonderful meal, all the flavours are so wonderfully balanced , a real joy. Price wise: 45£ total including one glass of wine ( 8 £ ) and 2 bottles of sparkling water. Absolutely fine by me! THANKS GUYS, we’ll come visiting in Caversham AGAIN and perhaps in Bournemouth as well!!!

Brilliant experience today. The aesthetics, hygiene, service, taste of food and portion size all 5 STARS. Oscar from Vegivores took great care of us, the entire staff is extremely cordial. Recommendations would be hashed potatoes, burrito, satay burger. Mac and Cheese served here is another level. The variety of drinks offered is precise but all the choices are great. MUST TRY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Absolutely fantastic Restaurant in the heart of Caversham, Reading. My wife and me have been coming to this lovely place since it opened in 2017, also having many food deliveries during lockdown. On this occasion we came on a Sunday, Lunch time. A lovely young chap welcomed us straight away and gave us a table even if we didn’t book. The atmosphere and the ambiance in the restaurant is really lovely: you feel as at home. Relaxed, Quick and attentive service, super friendly from everyone. FANTASTIC STAFF, including the manager. And the food… it gets better every time. We went for THE BOSS BOWL ( amazing fresh flavours with really balanced spices and brown rice ) and I tried the CRISPY GNOCCHI as well , to die for. Good red wine, I tried the French option. I adore Vegivores food and I am certainly not vegetarian nor vegan. Amazing presentation, top ingredients, customer service at its best. We find the prices absolutely right for the quality of the food. WE WILL BE BACK, perhaps we’ll come visiting in Bournemouth!!!

Food was excellent but very disappointed with the service. Table had been pre booked but we had to wait for a table to come free and then be cleared. Only 2 waiters to serve a full restaurant, they needed more staff on duty for a busy Saturday evening.

Such lovely food! I got the lunch special which was Thai yellow curry! Was amazing and some sides too! Really filling and wholesome! Lovely place also!

Opening day and it was all lovely and delicious.

Amazing food and the tiramisu was out of this world. Amazing stuff and atmosphere. Can't wait to go back.

What a wonderful vegan restaurant in Caversham. Very busy at lunchtime. Wide variety of meals including macaroni 'cheese', burrito bowl, Burritos, toasted sandwiches and salads. All good is vegan and therefore vegetarian. Very popular with young Mum's and babies. Plenty of high chairs for little ones. A carpark offering up to 3 hours free parking is just behind the restaurant.

Absolutely delicious food. Good service, nice and cozy place. Highly recommend the restaurant 👌

Incredible vegan food thatll please anyone! Friendly service and lovely relaxed atmosphere. I go here whenever I come to Reading now!

Amazing food, service and ambience! Loved this place and will defo be back. So nice to have this alternative restaurant.

Such a lovely vegan restaurant, food is absolutely delicious, portion sizing is great, service is so friendly and attentive and atmosphere is lovely.

Amazing food, our favourite in Reading.

Good coffee and friendly service. Very clean loos.

Been there a few times - food is absolutely delicious and service is great too. Recommend the fried gnocchi and the tofu burger, which was really flavourful and sauce is to die for. So many great plant based options!

GReat food for a good price - enjoyed it a lot!

Lunch with my friend. 2 ppl, £40 Although we had to wait for an hour then get food (and I felt my hangry already growing), oh boy the food was very delicious! Worth the wait. Reservation recommended as the restaurant is very popular.

Really nice, relaxed vibe with tasty food. The Biscoffle dessert and Mac and cheese were great. Service was excellent with friendly staff.

*Edit* This evening I went into the restaurant and had a very pleasant experience. The gentleman who served me (Sam on the receipt) was very jovial and friendly and made sure I had everything I needed, as well as checking in appropriately. Everything came out in perfect timing and its great to see an improvement from previous. I had the Korean mushroom dish and it was delicious (As I expect all food from here to be!). Will hopefully visit again soon ;) I am really disappointed about the opening times during the week now! I think these guys do really great food in a really great location but both times I have been in the restaurant the service has been really really slow. I normally order Deliveroo and again it takes a seriously long time but I don't mind as the food is so good! Perhaps staff issues or something. Shame because the food is amazing! I still give 4 stars.

Wonderful food, three non-veggies out of four and we were all raving about each course, butter board and mushroom bulgogi in particular. Highly recommend for all diets.

Amazing Xmas dinner here. Really nice and friendly staff

Most amazing vegan restaurant 💕 we travel for over an hour to visit!

Food & Drinks: Food and drinks are always amazing there. Never had anything that I didn't like. Everything is made fresh and from scratch and with such attention to detail. Service: Staff is very friendly and welcoming! Atmosphere: Great atmosphere. Been there at various times and days of the week and it's always nice.

We have been several times and each time the food and service have been excellent.... Worth booking as it can get busy.

Fantastic food. Amazing Sleigh Burger. Attentive and friendly staff buzzing atmosphere. Thanks for a great experience. We'll definitely be back.

Fab food , better than I had imagined , made a real effort for my dietary requirements , can’t thank the staff enough , had a great night out there .

Lovely food, lovely service, lovely restaurant! I highly recommend

Liked this place before today. Never had an issue. Ordered my usual light snack hummus & flatbread. Last bit of flatbread had what looked like a large bite mark out of it. Mentioned to the waitress who passed me over to a lady I can only guess was the manager. I wasn’t after a free meal or anything like, just pointing out the large chunk missing which looked like a bite mark. As I had about a third left of the hummus thought she was going to offer a flatbread lol. Must cost about 20p for a whole one. She just kept banging on about there bread was fine when left the kitchen, I waited again for maybe a flatbread 🥱. I once again assured her I wasn’t after a free meal. I now wanted to pay and leave. I was getting pissed off by now and didn’t really want to go into F**k mode as I’m new to the area . As I was about to leave she started patronize me by asking how the meal was, couldn’t believe it 🤣. Guess I won’t be going back, shame as I enjoyed the few times I had visited before. The lady needs to go on some kind of customer training course 👍

Lovely decor, lovely space, really lovely staff and AMAZING FOOD!!! We’ll definitely be returning next time we’re near Reading.

Great meal. Food was delicious, portions huge, nice drinks, good service. Had a sharing plate starter and regretted ordering mains! Butter bean something or other with sour dough bread - divine. I could only manage half my subsequent burrito and Mrs B was fit to bust half way through the big bowl thing. I ordered the sambal sauce on my jazzy broccoli. Nearly blew my head off - and I eat raw green chillies for fun. Waste not want not - into the takeaway boxes for tomorrow. These two old carnivores staggered out with big smiles on our faces. Even my pocket was smiling. What a great place. Lucky Reading.

The waiter was friendly but the food was small, very expensive and didn't taste that great.

As always delicious food and drinks. The vegan breakfast has covered me to cooked breakfasts as I was previously a sceptic!

Absolutely amazing. Great juice, great pancakes. Maybe best vegan place in Reading. Thanks team x

Lovely vegan restaurant with a bit of a cafe vibe. A true find in the most unlikely of places.

A gem of a restaurant, I have always enjoyed the food here! Great for dine-in or takeaway - I would highly recommend to anyone to try Vegivores!!

We love Vegivores and we try to come as often as possible, despite the fact that it's not on our doorstep. The food is excellent, with such a selection of drinks to go with it, it's a treat everytime. We love trying new things and welcome the weekly specials. Thank you to the whole team of staff too. You always seem so happy in your work. And thank you especially for bringing back the mac n cheeze. 😃

Really good and cozy vegetarian spot, love it

Flavourful food and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere.

Great food, nice outdoor seating, highly recommended

Great food, nutritious and tasty! Thank you!

Beautiful restaurant, all vegetarian / vegan. Food was great, we had a burrito and a bowl, coffee and an ice cream with chocolate and crumbled cookies on top. It was however on the expensive side tho, about £80 for two mains and sides, two drinks and coffees and two desserts. Service and staff was amazing it was quite busy but when we came in it was quite quiet which I liked.. Due to the great service there's 12.5% non optional service charge slapped on top of your bill. I usually leave 10% if asked, hence why I leave 3 stars. Definitely not a place where you come for lunch every weekend. If I compare this with other restaurants I get full on my main already without the dessert and a refillable drink that would be less than £50. Ambient is great, it was a rainy day that day and we couldn't eat outside but that's not their fault.

After we were seated I tried several times to get attention from the staff passing by our table, to no avail. I got up to order and explained that we just wanted to have a quick lunch. The food arrived about 50 min later. The bill was £49.50 but the card was charged £55.70. I asked about the discrepancy and was told that that’s the service charge. Since no one paid any attention to us throughout I don’t know why we expected someone to ask if the service was ok at the end before charging for it more than the amount indicated on the bill. The food I had was largely without taste; the vegetables were burned and undercooked at the same time; K said his burger was quite nice.

Wow wow wow! Delicious vegan restaurant! What a find, can’t wait to return soon.

Excellent birthday lunch for my wife. Being a vegetarian, it was the first place she had been to where she could have ANYTHING off the menu. Food was excellent, albeit a wee bit pricey. We booked a table at 3pm, so that we could have food from the Dinner Menu. Dropped one star because of very loud kids running riot and the staff did not say anything.
