Vegan paradise! - Edit
Everything about our experience was brilliant from the moment we walked in the door. Staff were friendly and attentive throughout, our burgers were delicious (I had the gluten-free bun) and the loaded cheesy fries were honestly the DREAMIEST! I've been longing for more of them ever since we left ..! Kudos to the incredible chefs.
Read moreWe had the 'I love Ewe' cocktail and the 'Piers Morgan's tears' cocktail (a must!). Both were great!
They even brought out a birthday brownie for my friend's 40th birthday weekend... such a lovely touch! On top of everything the vibe of the restaurant is effortlessly cool and just a lovely place to be.
Special thanks to all the hard-working staff there! Also thanks to the legend that is Ed Winters.

AMAZING - Edit
That’s what describes this restaurant best. The staff is friendly, food absolutely delicious and the ambiance is really nice. The food comes in big portions, so we came back for desserts and cocktails another day.

Worth the hype - Edit
We tried the pan seared cod and the 3D printed filet mignon here. Wow! It was just like meat. The bacon on the filet was really impressive. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in London. There are so many things that look good to try.

A great all vegan place - Edit
Unity Diner is a lovely place in London for vegans. Probably most famous for being associated with Earthling Ed. The menu is full of options from salads, burgers, and redefine meat steaks. But the majority of people seemed to be getting the 'fish' and chips (including us). This was excellent
Read morePros: All vegan, Great choice , Nice setting
Cons: Service charge added automatically, Service slow after eating

Pretty good! - Edit
They were out of the savory items we wanted to try so we decided to just get dessert. The Black Forest cake was just ok and tasted old. The ice cream waffles and eton mess were very good. Staff was very nice.

Amazing concept, incredible food, wonderful staff - Edit
What a great spot, donating 100 percent of their proceeds to animal related charities is incredible. The food? Wow. Tried their “award winning” fish and chips with a fantastic beer batter, the tartar sauce was unreal. For dessert, I opted for the waffle with ice cream and maple syrup. Incredible. My server was very nice and helpful as well, being able to accommodate me on a busy Friday!

Good food, prices and service not so much - Edit
Most of the food here is pretty epic. They really do prove that vegan food can be decadent and delicious, but I feel you don’t always get your money’s worth, for instance the calamari was very unremarkable. Also, we had a reservation and still had to wait a long time, and service felt quite rushed. Would still come back for the 3D steak that they were out of when we ate there.

They really sell dishes you can’t find anywhere else. My friend had some tofu esk steak which was really good.

The decor and venue isn’t the best but the staff were great and although slightly on the expensive side I did enjoy my time here.

Delicious food - Edit
First time at unity diner as we are not local and thoroughly enjoyed it. We chose the tofu bites to start and then tried the 2 3D printed steaks which were scarily close to real meat in taste and texture and had I not known it was a fully vegan establishment I would have been worried. We also tried the Mac and cheese which was also delicious. It was quite expensive but it’s something we have never tried before and are are certainly glad we did.

Fantastic Vish & Chips - Edit
The vish is impressive, it's almost too real; the flaky consistency is very nice. Everything else was really yummy too.
Read moreNot the cheapest, but worth it. Portion was fairly large as well, couldn't even try any desserts because I was so full.
The service was very friendly as well.

If you’re new to veganism go to Unity diner. They are the best at veganizing your used-to-favorites. Personally I love the veggies and fruits. Unity can improve in the health department ;-)

Unity Diner x La Vie Event - Edit
We attended the Unity Diner & La Vie collab event and had a wonderful time !
Read moreThe food was amazing, the atmosphere was great and the food was insane.
Starters: Vegan Cheesy Bacon Fries
Main: Vegan Bacon Cheese Burger
Dessert: Bacon Waffle
Drinks: Piers Morgan’s Tears & Vegan Espresso Martini
Some of these dishes I believe are limited edition but I believe they have the burger on the menu. I probably had the best burger I have ever had in my entire life. The garlic sauce, the patty, the shiny bun.. everything about it was perfect.
Unity diner has amazing meals and I highly recommend it !!
Pros: THE FOOD, Atmosphere , Friendly Staff !
Cons: Limited seats 😖

Second time there and we regret it - Edit
Food was just not tasty. Rip off for the price. Last time we had the tofish and chips which was great but this time wanted to try something different and it was not good. Staff were friendly when they actually spoke to you. However, most of the time the staff was never to be seen and so casual about their role, they might as well been comatose. It felt like they didn’t care if you were there or not. We always want to support good causes and this place is a way to support the cause. But we should get value for money and at least service that makes you feel welcome. Very sad to say, I don’t think we will return. By the way watch out for the 12% service fee.

Amazing plant-based food! - Edit
A really great selection of food, I had a VFC Chicken burger and it was INCREDIBLE! Literally one of the nicest burgers I’ve ever had. I took my non vegan friend, and she had the same, and agreed that it was amazing.
Read moreWas lovely to have a selection of deserts to choose from as well, and great cocktails! Personal favourite is “Piers Morgan’s Tears” 😂
The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because it was sooo busy and loud (probably because the food is so good) and we were rushed from our table as they needed it for another booking - but if that’s not a sign of a good, in demand restaurant, then what is!
Pros: Amazing food, Good selection of deserts & drinks, Good location
Cons: Very busy

Deserves 10 stars - if you go to only one vegan place, come here - Edit
We tried the 3D printed steak yesterday and omg it’s literally the best vegan meat we ate. It’s taste explosion in your mouth, very very tasty and 100% worth the price. The portions are very generous unlike so many restaurants now. Nice atmosphere, I can’t wait until I can come back 😍😍😍 thanks so much to all the staff for making this happen.
