Best in London

I have had several of the menu items (Western, apple/brie grilled cheese, bangers and mash, Jamaican patties, etc.) and haven’t found one that isn’t excellent.

They also make the best vegan Caesar salad in the city.

Pros: Delicious, Good variety, Good location

Cons: On the expensive side, for vegan

Drove across town to come to restaurant

Kind of a bummer that we drove across town for 30 minutes to come to the restaurant that clearly states the hours are until 9 PM. We arrived a few minutes before 8 PM, and the server informed us that they would not be able to have service, and that the kitchen was closed. I asked if there was anything that we could take away and the response was no there was nothing we can do, the kitchen closes in eight minutes and that unfortunately, we are not going to be served. A suggestion, a drink, and a dessert could’ve been taken away and some service rendered within the time of your supposed hours.

Pros: Nothing, service was not inspiring at all

Cons: Unwillingness to solve a problem.

Plant Matter, as far as I know, has never been open until 9pm, and their website posts hours. The latest they are open is 8pm on Fridays and Saturdays. I would encourage you to give them another shot, as they have the best vegan food in London.

Good brunch

I had a fantastic brunch experience! The service was top-notch, and the server was super friendly and knowledgeable.

The manager or owner suggested a special dish that wasn’t on the menu but was a must-try brunch item. It was a delicious plant-based poached egg-like meal. I ordered two, one to enjoy there and another to take home.

Pros: Reasonable price , Friendly knowledgeable staff

Great food, great service

Our favourite place in London. We came here for lunch twice on this trip and had great food and service both times.

I recommend the shii-take escargot if you like cheesy garlicky goodness. The buffalo caesar wrap was also great.

Wonderful service and food even near closing time

Our group of 5 - all vegan activists - were travelling through London and scheduled to arrive right when last orders were taken. PMK not only gladly took our reservation but also our phoned-in orders. They happily took drink and dessert orders after we were seated. Service was perfect and our meals were flavourful, filling, and nicely presented.

Pros: Perfect service , Flavourful food , Nice presentation and decor

Service above and beyond

We were passing through London on our way to Niagara Falls, looking for a dog-friendly place with good vegan food. Based on reviews, we decided to stop at this wonderful restaurant in this charming (and hopping) neighborhood.

The food was excellent! We especially enjoyed the beef bourguignon and the brie en croûte (although the brie could have been just a tad more melted). My oat latte was superb.

But the thing that made our visit particularly special was the service. I called ahead to see if they had a patio so we could dine with our dog. I was told that although they have a sidewalk patio, it was closed because of inclement weather, but if we were willing to chance the weather, they would set up a table outside so we'd be able to dine with our pup. We showed up and they pulled a table outside, and the server was a good sport about serving us in very windy weather. At least the rain stayed away!

Pros: Exceptionally helpful staff, great comfort food, smooth, delicious coffee

Cons: Parking can be challenging, but don't be deterred

Very good

Sit down vegan restaurant in London. Nice selection of drinks and desserts. Good vegan food but service was lacking. Waiter seemed rushed and indifferent. Will go back and look for different server next time

Pros: Good vegan food , Good desserts

Cons: Terrible lack of parking

A must visit!

Even if it’s a bit out of your way, make this your meal destination! We went for lunch and it was busy (good for them!). They have a special and a soup every day then the lunch and dinner and brunch menus. Everything was delicious and I loved the bright, contemporary but cozy dining room. Highly recommend!

Pros: All the vegan food, Bright and welcoming space, Menu with lots of innovative choices

Cons: Local street parking

I discovered this place a year ago while traveling across Ontario and fell in love. I had the French dip sandwich, potato wedges, and the carrot cake for dessert. Such delicious food! I wish I had taken pictures!

Yum! Kids menu and friendly staff

A great place for a healthy or not-so-healthy meal. Short kids menu that helps with smaller portions.

Incredible place, I can't wait to go back!

Finally made it in to Plant Matter Kitchen for a late lunch yesterday.
The atmosphere and energy is amazing in this great Wortley Village gem!
I had the French Dip and was very impressed - my picture really doesn't do it justice - that Au Jus!- delicious for dipping both my incredible sandwich AND very tasty potato wedges!

Well done, Chef!

The service was amazing, and the beautiful sunshine was the cherry on top!

I will be back again!

Pros: Completely vegan menu, Amazing atmopsphere, Great service

Great menu, delicious drinks!

Really nice atmosphere with an awesome and diverse menu. The vegan escargot and mushroom flatbread were real highlights! Fun specialty drinks as well. I highly recommend this place for a nice, sit down evening!

Exciting Empanadas

We went on a Friday night- had booked a table in advance. We were seated relatively quickly and our server was patient while we decided on something to eat- so many good looking options! We settled on the Empanadas and the Sliders and they did not disappoint. Plenty of sauce on the Empanadas and we knew we'd be full as we'd each had a large lunch. Naturally we packed up a slider and ordered chocolate cake- an excellent choice. Would come back or order from the takeout menu.

Pros: Good price, Good service , Yummy food

Cons: A bit loud

Good brunch!

We got a bagel sandwich and hangry burrito. The bagel sandwich was excellent, the burrito was good, but not to my taste. Good components, but too many mushrooms (I'd order without next time). It came with a sauce to make it a wet burrito, but it just tasted like marinara to me. Not Mexican at all. Great potato wedges!

Cons: Brunch doesn't start until 11.

Not the PMK of old

We have gone here so so many times, and the past year it just seems tired and lacking. Its the landmark Vegan spot in London and was really good for so long, but it is not as it was sadly.
The food lacks lustre now, the best servers are gone, and they really need to update the decor. For the cost of things these days, we expect more.
4 stars because of what it was, not what it has become.

Pros: location, coffee, hours

Cons: cost, food, atmosphere

Great choice for vegan!

We visited the restaurant on Sunday July 18 for lunch, as we had eaten three orders of delicious dumplings from their Victoria Park kiosque during the Home County festival. Elyse and Roula there convinced us and we were very happy with the meal: empanadas, taquitos, a Buffalo cauliflower wrap, and a surprise of escargot style mushrooms - thanks to Roula and Elyse😃

We particularly liked the mushrooms - best we have ever tasted!!! The taquitos we're also delicious and flavourful. We'd only suggest more hot spice for the wrap, but that's because we like wraps spicy;-)

Enjoy this gem of a place, and strolling around Wortley Village afterwards.

Pros: Wide variety on menu, Table service was great , Food was delicious

Cons: window sill beside table dirty, rather expensive

Aceptable

Used to be awesome. Went down a few notches. They gave a raw beyond burger. After complaining the manager gave me a free beyond burger for later, which I get the next day. I asked to make sure it was pretty crisp. Unfortunately it was almost raw again. Not sure what happened. Will give it another try for old time sakes.
