MilzMC Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Good afternoon all!I am new to the area and heard about this forum from a local! What a fantastic resource!Would any of you lovely people be able to recommend any fab vegan-friendly restaurants or cafes, which are in or around the ED area?Thank you!

DulwichFox Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Cannot give a personal recommendation as I have not been myself But The Blue Brick Caf? comes to mind. Blue Brick Cafe ? Vegan and Vegetarian Cafe http://www.cyncity.co.uk/blue-brick-cafe-vegan-and-vegetarian-cafe/ DulwichFox Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/168781-vegan-restaurantcafe-recommendations-and-hello/#findComment-1179998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
beansprout Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Not in east Dulwich but in west Dulwich Risendale a Pub offers vegan food if you ask - not sure if it is mentioned on menu - only know this as I have avegan friend coming to apartheid there and we discussed this and Ivwas impressed tat they offered vegan food.Spinach is also good - many vegetarian offering so sure there will be one to suit you - again my vegan friend found something suitable.

japseylarue Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Maybe a bit far for you but Calabash in Sydenham and Lovegift in Brockly are both vegan and well worth a visit.

rosietea Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Not strictly ED but Persepolis in Peckham is great, they can swap out yoghurt or cheese for vegan versions on any of the dishes if you ask, and they sell it to take away too. Good vegan selection at Maloko in Camberwell. For a takeaway, big recommendations for Salas Falafel on Rye lane, it looks like a slightly grotty food van but is very very good.

KidKruger Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Is Persepolis a restaurant these days then ? Until now I'd thought it was shop only.

katanita Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The new cafe next to Fashion Conscience by ED station apparently has vegan offerings but have yet to try it. A friend had a very good experience at Pedlar recently, where they created a lovely vegan menu for her. We could do with more around here though!

Nigello Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Blue Brick Cafe is good for daytime vegan and vegetarian food (as stated). It can get busy in the mornings at weekends but it's still warm enough to sit outside.

Sue Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Franco Manca will make a pizza for you with vegan "cheese" if you take your own in (though I don't know to what extent the atual pizza base is vegan).

katanita Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 And Franco Manca will happily take the cheese off and sub it for something else, I've found, and it's still tasty. AFAIK the base is vegan.

Elphinstone's Army Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Emily, you need to google the Happy Cow website, which is up to date and precise.It is astonishing that there isn't a truly vegan cafe here (yet), but there is the salad ladyon North Cross Road market on a Saturday. And Borough Market, train from East Dulwich to London Bridge, or 40 to London Bridge, foodie heaven,although the vegan wraps on Maltby Street (at the end, on the right, past all the meat eaters) arethe best.

Sue Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I've just had a look at Ganapati's website, and it seems that they do still have a wide selection of vegetarian/vegan food.http://www.ganapatirestaurant.com/menu.htmlThey do change their menu quite often though, so best check before you go (or if you order a takeaway).Though once when I was disappointed that they didn't have a favourite dish of mine on the night we went, when they brought the main course they had made me a special little side dish of the favourite.To say I was chuffed would be an understatement!

katanita Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Just remembered seeing that Churps Ice Cream under Dulwich Cafe had a sign offering a dairy free option. Although it's not quite the season any more. Anyone tried it? Also, has anyone found good vegan sausages for sale in the area? The Blue Brick ones are so lovely but they make them themselves so not buyable. Wouldn't mind a good hot dog sausage too, just tried some of the tofurky kielbasa ones and they were foul. so need a corrective...

Don't know if they do vegan sausages, but worth trying. If not, they might be willing to order them for you?They have a type of vegan cheese which my granddaughter (dairy free for medical reasons) has, luckily she likes it but I think it's revolting :)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/168781-vegan-restaurantcafe-recommendations-and-hello/#findComment-1183255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siduhe Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Masalawala in Brockley. Only has a limited menu but 2 items are usually vegan.

katanita Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Resurrecting this because Blackbird Bakery just did the most fabulous vegan chocolate cake for my birthday and I'm sad to be eating the last piece of it today. Had no idea they did vegan options. Any other recent ones? I think there is a new vegan cafe in Peckham but not been, anyone?
