Great vegan comfort food in a busy location - Edit
Really great range of clearly marked vegan options on the menu, and staff are always able to answer any questions about the vegan-ness of menu items. The fried chick'n seitan burgers are fantastic and they do a ton of vegan sides, including bacon fries and poutine. They also have a range of vegan mayos to choose from on request. The only real downside is that Lothian Road is a busy area for offices and on weekday lunchtimes the restaurant is full of people on their lunch break, so you will often have to wait, and there's not a lot of room for people queuing to wait in. Despite this, it is always worth the wait.

Good food, shame they removed the vegan Rueben - Edit
Had the angry vegan chicken burger which was really nice but upset they replaced the Rueben with more burgers. They’re missing a trick, it was really a unique option you can’t get elsewhere.

Vegan bacon sandwich - Edit
The vegan bacon tasted like real bacon, which I found a bit strange, but I'm sure you like it, if you like bacon.

Went to check it out, but was dissapointed. - Edit
The chick'n was anything but tasty or delightful, the texture was very bready, and the bread was too compact and had a bad texture too. I felt like I was eating only bread with one bit of bacon, one bit cheese. Would not go again or recommend to anyone.

Great Little Vegan Menu - Edit
Delicious vegan options tucked in the menu of this Edinburgh gem. The seitan is thick and dense and the cheez is out of this world. A great spot to enjoy whether you’re full vegan or not. Can be a bit packed at times, but it’s well worth the wait.

Okay - Edit
The burger options were basically the same thing plus added extras and the bacon and sauce and cheese were pretty nice but the chickn was just unrealistic as hell. Pretty tough and bland tasting. The staff were nice but were pretty unprofessional and talking amongst themselves continuously. Almost obnoxiously. Didnt even come with chips!

Good high street option - Edit
We tried the reuben and the angry vegan sandwiches. Both were very nice, though the seitan in the angry vegan was very dense, and thus could have stood to be a thinner patty. I'm a harsh judge of seitan though, as I regularly make my own, and tend to prefer it to any I've had in restaurants.

Pros: Central, Several options
Cons: Serves meat

Chips > burgers - Edit
I've been to bread meats bread a couple of times. I am not a big fan of the burgers, however, their vegan bacon chips with spicy mayo are amazing. I definitely keep coming back for those .

100% worth a visit! - Edit
Absolutely LOVED this place. Variety of vegan options for both mains and sides. For your money you get the perfect sized portion. The staff were so so lovely when I went in. Short wait for a table as the restaurant itself isn’t that big and was busy, but definitely worth the wait. Had the vegan fried chick’n cheese bacon burger and fries. Honestly the best burger I’ve ever had. Even my non-vegan partner said that the vegan burger was the best burger he has ever had!!

Best burgers in Edin! - Edit
I really love this place -I go every month! The burgers are incredible, it has a fab vegan menu and really helpful staff. They have a big selection of vegan sides, including chips with ‘blue cheese’ and some of the best mayonnaise I’ve ever tried.
