No longer fully vegan!

From February 2025, ALL GO FALAFEL BRANCHES now offer halloumi or feta cheese add ons. Disgraceful that this hasn’t been made clear via HappyCow / Instagram / their website, etc. They have not communicated any change, and also are actively still claiming to be fully vegan on their website.

I nearly ordered assuming it was vegan versions of the cheese given the years history of this place being vegan, but after (thankfully) double-checking through reviews at the Deansgate branch, and Charing Cross in London, it is in fact non-vegan.

I always loved the falafel wraps from here, but this, and the lack of clear communication with customers on this change, is unacceptable. This is a risk to vegans, and a risk to people with dairy allergies, both of which may assume these dairy options are referring to a vegan variant.

Disappointingly, the lowest rating I can give is two stars, due to this being a ‘fully vegan’ business. Well, it’s not.

Cons: Not fully vegan, Change not communicated

No longer Vegan

No longer Vegan. 1 store has been removed from vegan listing.

No information given via Apps, websites, social media. Possibly leading to Vegans believe their getting Vegan cheese.

Saved my Sunday evening

Most of the places were closed, and this one saved my dinner. Super aubergine falafel wrap, mixed plate of veggies and a power smoothie

Simply scrumptious!

This is my go to for a quick, yummy and cheap eat in the city!

The falafel Wraps are a must have, I recommend a size large for a meal.

The salad in the wrap is super fresh and yum, and the falafel is divine!

Highly recccomend!

Oh Ye of Little Faith

Quite honestly, I wasn’t expecting more from dining here. My impression was that I was going to get a pretty average, potentially semi-decent (if not forgettable), falafel wrap and then I could happily move on and basically forget the place existed. But how wrong I was. I did indeed get a falafel wrap, but it was anything but basic. Fresh, flavourful, and substantial, it was everything I didn’t think it would be and more. All this, and it held up well while eating rather than disintegrating into the paper as I feared it might. Absolutely worth popping in if you’re passing, or even making a detour specifically for.

Great value falafel wrap

I needed a quick evening bite. After reading the great reviews on here I thought I’d give it a go. Ended up having a large falafel wrap with all the salads and with chilli and tahini sauces. £6.50 and it felt like a whole meal. Would defo visit again next time I’m in Manchester

Pros: Great value, £6.50 for large wrap - go for it

Cons: None

Outstanding falafel place!!

When you order a falafel bowl, you get to pick the salads you want to have. I was positively surprised that they not only have the typical raw lettuce, pickled red cabbage, or raw cucumber salad etc. to choose from, but also things like sweet potato with walnuts, aubergine bean salad, brokkoli and rice with courgette! Great options, great taste, friendly staff!

Amazing flavours

I ate one of the best falafels there! The flavours were amazing. Runs out of competition of your average takeaway that serves falafel as an option of many meat-heavy dishes. Still very reasonably priced. I highly recommend going!

Pros: healthy takeaway, amazing flavours, reasonably prized

Cons: no seating area, only takeaway

Perfect vegan fast food

In and out in a few mins and tasted lovely. The fellow behind the counter didn’t have much to say though, so was a little awkward when ordering.

Pros: 100% Vegan, Tasty

So good we went there twice on our weekend in Manchester and on the second trip bought extra meals for the journey home! We’re looking forward to returning the next time we are up.

Great meal for a good deal!

Lovely staff. Quite a small establishment, but we took food to go. We ordered the falafel wraps with the works and tahini. It was an absolutely delightful quick meal that I certainly recommend. They offer a variety of bowls and fresh salads and juices too. Order one to go, go to the nearest park with a friend, family, a partner or your own company and enjoy!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Tasty, Affordable

Cons: Small

Good food on the go - 4.9 starry stars

Ordered the Mango Tango and the Salad Box to go - everything was decent, nothing too memorable though.
Maybe would go back for some falafels :)

I do like how you get to see all the fresh fruits and veggies that could go in your drink - very pleasing to the eyes.

Best. Falafel. EVER!

As a vegan I get a bit bored of falafel, but these guys take it to the next level. My wrap was AMAZING - really tasty, packed with flavour, nice moist falafel but not soggy, and expertly done so the veggies lasted right to the last mouthful - no big lump of dry flatbread at the end. As for the smoothie - delicious! It included apple juice, avocado and mint and was just perfect. All this for £5.45. Fantastic food at a fantastic price, definitely worth sniffing out this place.

Pros: Best takeaway food ever, Great value , Fast and friendly service

Cons: Takeaway only.

Genuinely excellent falafel for a low price

The best falafel I've ever had. I've ordered it in a fair few restaurants at this point, and nothing has surpassed Go Falafel yet!
Food is ready quickly, great selection of salads (including pickles) - Definitely worth popping in for lunch to any of the Go Falafel branches when you are in Manchester.

Pros: Delicious fresh falafel, Really good hummus , Prepared quickly
