Shoreditch is a force to be reckoned with, and not just on a Friday night when the patrons of its bars are spilling out onto the trendy streets. Also a dab hand when it comes to meat-free and plant-based dining (from burgers to brunches), there are plenty of great vegan restaurants in Shoreditch. You just have to know where to go, which luckily for you... we do.

With food as colourful as the venue itself, Barrio is a winner for plant-based eats in Shoreditch. Think £2 tacos full of portobello mushrooms or roasted pumpkin and Chipotle chickpea loaded fries, to be enjoyed alongside an ice-cold margarita from the bar.
Situated on Bethnal Green Road, BrewDog is a great venue for plant-based grub. What's up for grabs? From buffalo cauliflower wings with vegan mayo to crispy jackfruit patties, this top-notch spot has plenty of tasty food on the menu. On top of that, there's also lots of beer and a 2 for 1 meals offer on Mondays.
Though the name may suggest fish dishes, Sticks'n'Sushi do a cracking plant-based selection too. Sat around the striking central bar, you can enjoy black truffle cauliflower, grilled broccoli in ginger or tofu nigiri, while sipping on sophisticated cocktails of course.
