10/10 Asian food - Edit
Absolutely loved the range of food here spanning a lot of Asia and mainly Vietnamese. I had the Singapore noodles with vegan shrimp and pork and they were phenomenal. Portion sizes were huge too

Delicious banh mì - Edit
I love banh mì and it can be hard to find good ones. The options here were excellent with many vegan options and vegan drinks. It was a quiet and welcoming environment.

Delicious food with many vegan options - Edit
I came here for lunch and tried the vegan beef bánh mì, which was really tasty! The bread was so fresh, the pickled vegetables were delicious and not too overpowering, and the vegan beef was amazing. I also tried the vegan spring rolls, which I enjoyed.

Tasty range of vegan options - Edit
The tables are a bit small but the welcome was friendly and the food tasty. Pretty reasonably priced at £80 for 4 people to have lunch too.

Perfect Place - Edit
Offering some of the finest vegan Pho in the country, this place boasts incredibly helpful staff and a notably dog-friendly atmosphere. While I have a minor suggestion for improvement—clarifying on the menu where dishes are vegetarian rather than vegan—the menu already predominantly features vegan options. In fact, they have such an extensive range of vegan choices that it begs the question of why not make the transition to 100% vegan. I, for one, would certainly appreciate it!

Delicious and lots of choice - Edit
I really liked that they had the choice between fake meat and tofu or just veggies for a lot of the dishes. Very tasty food.

Great takeaway - Edit
We had a takeaway from Buddha Taste. The menu is very well labelled so there's no confusion with what is veggie or vegan. It's extensive and took ages to narrow down my choices! I had the sweet and sour tofu, my husband had a baguette. Both where delicious

Really Good Vietnamese - Edit
Some of the best vegan Pho in the country, super helpful staff and very dog friendly too. If I had one area for improvement, it would be that the menu could be a little more explicitly clear in pointing out where the food is vegetarian rather than vegan - to be honest though, they have almost entirely vegan options to the point where I'm not sure why they don't just go 100% vegan - I for one would appreciate it!

Very impressive! - Edit
Everything was so flavourful and delicious! Also the fact that you can get bubble tea to accompany your meal is super fun. The portions were massive and we happily took leftovers home

Very good - Edit
The food is very good, and very fresh. Service is fast and servers are friendly. Restaurant is relaxing and pleasant. Not all items on menu are vegan as some have eggs, but they are clearly marked.

More cafe vibes than restaurant vibes but the food really is great. Tofu summer rolls with satay are amazing. And the (vegan) bubble tea is good too!

A Must Visit! - Edit
What a wonderful discovery. I found this fascinating petit eatery simply by searching “Food” in Google Maps. My oh my was I so happy to discover Buddha Taste.
Read moreAt first I was saddened when I arrived, around 6pm, as it was closed inside, but apparently it was temporarily so, and they were re-opening the inside the next day. But I nonetheless was happy to eat outside as it was a pleasant early evening. The staff were friendly and they kindly placed a table and chair for me outside their eatery.
The food was some of the best vegan dishes I have experienced eating in the UK. The Nil-Chicken was so fragrant and delicious, and really did taste like chicken with a nice, lightly chewy texture. It included a refreshing pickled salad, a delicious, slightly thick satay (peanut) sauce and plain rice. The side Slaw was also refreshing and had a nice crunch. The Matcha Brown Sugar Milk Tea was gorgeous. I opted for the Coconut Milk version which had tasty large chunks of coconut to chew on.
I can’t wait to revisit Buddha Taste whenever I am in the area again.
Pros: Excellent Dishes, Exceptional Drinks, Friendly Helpful Service

Not great- small portions and bad service - Edit
I can’t give an overall review as I didn’t get anything to eat- but upon trying the bubble tea, it wasn’t great. The taste of the actual drink was ok.. nothing special but it was nice. The balls were very cold however as the drink had ice- even asking for no ice! So in other words, tapioca didn’t taste fresh and soft.
Read moreFinally, the size of a small was ridiculous. My whole family finished their drinks within a minute and it was pricey too…
And they added ice after we asked them not too so there was even less drink!!!
So dissatisfied and would really appreciate if these errors could be fixed as it could’ve been a great addition to blackheath village.
Pros: Friendly staff, Nice environment , Nice location
Cons: Portion size, Adding ice! , General drink wasn’t up to standard of that price!

Hi Nikita, thank you for your review 🙏. Standard tapioca cooking batches on the market is 3-4 hours, we had improved our cooking process to make tapioca in smaller batches and overlaying time between batches reduced down to 1 hour. This improvement has helped us producing soft tapioca for longer and no food waste (at all), that's already better than the market's standard.
Read moreWe'll advise our colleagues to pay attention more on the tapioca quality to avoid the experience like yours.
We're sorry that the ice-level didn't meet your request. Perhaps the smaller ice cubes slipped through the pouring jug whilst our colleagues making the drink and didn't notice it.

Tasty fresh food - Edit
I enjoyed the vegan chicken banh mi (baguette) and the ingredients l tasted really fresh. Dining in, it cost ~£7, takeaway is £6.50. Mains cost £10 from what I can remember. Bubble teas looked great but I didn't try one. Friendly staff.
Read moreUnfortunately they do not use vegan indicators on the two page menu making it really difficult to figure out what was actually vegan. Roughly 3/4 of the options were vegan. The vegetarian options tended to contain egg.
You have to read the entire list of ingredients for every single option to figure it out. A simple green V would have made it so much easier and is common practice nowadays, so it's puzzling why a vegetarian restaurant wouldn't use such an indicator. I suggested it to the waitress, hopefully she'll pass on the feedback.
Pros: Lots of vegan options , Fresh food, Tasty
Cons: Vegan options not marked on menu, Mains a little pricey
