Harden's says
Following a wildly successful crowdfund, Cambridge's popular vegan restaurant headed down the M11 to open in Old Street to share its plant-based cuisine with eager Londoners; the main Cambridge restaurant has since closed, leaving only the cafe.
Harden's survey result
Summary
“A vegan delight”, say fans of this meat-free three-year-old near Barts Hospital: a crowdfunded spin-off from an acclaimed Cambridge venture. Results can be uneven (“maybe I chose badly…”; “some of the food missed but more was a hit…”), but they must be doing something right as a new Broadgate branch launches in September 2022.
Summary
“Vegan food that is actually moreish and delicious” is the governing principle at this campaigning two-year-old near Barts Hospital, which launched after a £600k Crowdcube fundraiser and sited five minutes’ walk from Smithfield meat market (the original also just re-launched in Cambridge). Plant-based versions of popular dishes dominate the menu, from dirty burgers and pizzas through to pho and katsu curry.
Summary
“Striking the right balance between recreating ‘meaty’ dishes and classic vegetarian cooking” – this new, all-day vegan near Barts (offshoot of a Cambridge-based business), scores solid marks for its imaginative, meat-free food in early-days reports. The effect of its contemporary white-and-cream design is somewhere between sparkly-fresh and icily-sparse.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
