Amazing! - Edit
I visited Vantra for the first time on 11th July 2021 ... and it definitely won't be my last! The owner is so warm and welcoming and the food and drinks were delicious. All of the food is vegan and gluten-free (I avoid gluten) and so it was wonderful to know that any of the dishes would be okay for me.
Read morePros: Warm welcome, nice atmosphere, delicious, food, selection of smoothies and juices, , lovely vegan doughnuts (baked not fried)
Cons: Some of the dishes were not available

This I where I would choose to eat every night out/lunch out if I could. Sadly, I don’t live in London but I try and go there whenever I’m visiting. I love the food at this place.

Hidden gem - Edit
Since they changed location (previously next to Tottenham C. Road Station), the place gained space (including area for live music), a more relaxed ambient and a more functional set up.
Read moreNot a great spot for raw options, but plenty of homemade style food. Very tasty and colourful variety of legums, greens and mushrooms. Price based of weight, very fair in our opinion. An Asian influence on the cuisine is easy to notice, great selection of smoothies and juices, also hot drinks.
Some of the desserts are interesting like the raw apple pie. Delicious overall and perfect for a quick healthy lunch!

The best restaurant in the UK! - Edit
I’m from up North but whenever I come to London I go here ! The food prep is outstanding, and super tasty. Fully vegan but also no oils and raw for the most nutritious meal you will find in the country. Only a small place but awesome, and sometimes have life music on. This is how food should be! I wish I could prepare and eat like this everyday
Read morePros: 100% vegan , Raw , Delicious
Cons: None, There is nothing bad about this place!, Other than the fact they’re not near me(up north)

Incredibly tasty food - Edit
Amazing, tasty vegan food and incredible service. The buffet is no longer available however the menu on offer has very tasty options, and there is a plentiful drinks menu also. The owner was also kind enough to give us satay 'chicken' skewers and hot chocolate on the house! Will be returning

London’s finest, welcome back! - Edit
London’s longest running (in different locations) vegan restaurant and my personal favourite.
Read moreThe food is the healthiest in town and literally everything is so full of flavour.
The menu has changed since reopening after Covid so there is loads of new stuff to try - main courses, desserts, super juices and loads of incredible beer and wine!
An absolute must visit if you are visiting London, and if you are a resident then this is one truly ethical business we should be supporting.
Will be back very soon!
Pros: Incredible healthy food and drinks, Great central location, Friendly welcoming vibe
Cons: None!

Large Variety of vegan healthy food - Edit
What a gem- right in the Center of buzzing London (next to chinatown and Leicester Square)- just go down the stairs and find yourself in a totally different Setting, warm, cozy, Friendly, relaxing... and the food- even my Omnivore Husband liked it. They have several Stews and currys, Salad and raw fermented food like kimchi and more. The Brown Rice, the Mushrooms and the pulled Jackfruit were my favorites. Their Ginger-Turmeric Mustard was a taste-explosion.
Read moreGreat Place!
When you eat in, you pay by weight.
If you choose to eat out, you Pay the Size of the box you choose.
Eating in is not Cheap. But the atmosphere and the high Quality Food are worth it.
Pros: Lots of different options

Pretty confused - Edit
The food wasn’t for me personally. It was healthy and fresh and my partner really liked it but it just wasn’t my thing. The whole system was a bit confusing where do you get plates from? When do you pay? How does it work? I totally understand the concept of paying by weight to reduce waste but it wasn’t cheap and i almost didn’t date put hardly any food on in case I didn’t like it and I was going to waste it

Wow probably my favorite place in London ! - Edit
Prices are very reasonable for the quality. Very skeptical that hot food steamed, no oil, but everything I tried on many visits was good to excellent. Staff is friendly and helpful. Location is great for most of the museums etc.

Love this place! - Edit
Our first visit and we absolutely loved it. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced (especially for central London). A great selection of cold salads and warm dishes so there's something for everyone. A very relaxed atmosphere. We had doughnuts for dessert and they were delicious too! I will definitely return next time I'm in the area. Thanks for a great experience!
Read morePros: Delicious and healthy food, lots of choice, relaxed atmosphere

The best. - Edit
These people are OG'S they been doing this 20 years. If you want real energy health food then this is the spot. Loads of different flavours and colours, juices, shakes and naturally sweet deserts. They promote Organic non refined sugar in their food and the place has an all round great vibe. This is where we should be looking to give our health a kick 👊 very impressed.

Not great - Edit
Delighted to find a vegan restaurant with good reviews on our Happy Cow app ... however after going down some basement stairs just off Leicester Sq/China town you enter a very dark space and no one to greet you. Despite there being lots of food options there were few dishes that looked appetising or fresh. The hot food is on bricks and was warmed by a candle which wasn’t affective. Every customer who came in was unclear where the plates were (at the end near the till rather than at the start) and there was contradictory reference to payment by plate size or weight and only one plate size available. Both male and female toilets were not clean. For two main dishes (that weren’t piled high) and two juices we felt this place was over priced.
Read morePros: Self service - in & out quick, Location , Vegan
Cons: Food not fresh , Expensive & unclear process , Dark & unclean

Healthy Vegan with good vibe - Edit
Vegan buffet style near Soho...lots of curries, stews, salads etc
Read moreOrganic, raw or steamed foods with no added fat/oil or sugar. Organic and natural wines and beers served as well as dessert menu. Buffet food is charged by weight.
Occasional live music performances. High quality food but some of the flavours are quite exotic and not for everyone. We enjoyed the chickpea curry the most!
Large selection of delicious smoothies and juices also.
Pros: Lots of dishes, Cool, chilled vibe, Healthy and clean food plus alcohol and dessert
Cons: Food could be a bit warmer on buffet

Charming - Edit
Can't comment on the food as a friend and I only stopped in for a coffee (it was, for the record, a very nice coffee) but I had to leave a review because the vibe down here was so nice. We came in, a member of staff chatted to us about sustainability and coffee choices, we sat and enjoyed the music playing. A few friends were strumming a guitar, and then, as they were leaving, spontaneously started a small drum circle using the bongo drums by the door - it was a lovely performance, a lovely vibe, truly a nice space to stop and visit.

much more than food - Edit
Love this rootical place ! Vegan is not a business down there... All dishes are tasty, delicious. You serve your plate yourself allowing you to pick whatever you want and have a rich experience. Many possibilities and a lot of flavors to build a spicy and colourful plate.
