A standout option - just go and try it!

This is arguably the best vegan restaurant in the north east. It’s looks modest from the outside but within it has some stylish menu items particularly amongst the starters. It has a lovely atmosphere and is deservedly popular. I would love to have this as a regular weekly option and will certain make it a first choice when visiting Newcastle.

Pros: Subtle and well curated Italian dishes , Super friendly staff, Lovely atmosphere

Plant based heaven

I've been longing for an eatery where the welcome was as good as the experience and finally we've found it. Vegano is a vegan's dream however, fit for everyone's pallet because of their mouth watering menu. It's a chilled environment with a great friendly service. There's a good few tables but I imagine booking a table is a good idea. We had the truffle fries, walnut and lentil pate, coleslaw, artichokes, carbonara and to finish, tiramisu. It was the only menu in a long time where even though I was full, I could have tried everything else. There were specials on and a list of other deserts.
They also take a converted horse trailer down to Newcastle quayside Sunday market where their food is equally delicious. Plant based food is our future, they are just doing it early.

Pros: Well priced, delicious plant based everything , Warmly welcomed, Huge choice

Cons: None whatsoever

Comfortably Vegan


This is a beautiful place run by dedicated and caring vegan people. They really appreciate the fact you’ve decided to spend some time with them to part with your hard earned money, paper or otherwise. We’ve been a number of times over the years since it first opened and tried their fantastically unique burgers and kebabs amongst other things. On our most recent visit in December 2022 we decided to go Italian and shared a ridiculously delicious yet delightfully unhealthy deep fried ravioli starter, a sublime penne arrabiata and a succulently fabulous pizza topped with spicy sausage. Vegano is there for your discovery and one of the last few remaining 100% vegan jewels of Newcastle upon the river of Tyne.

Pros: 100% vegan, Lovely interior , Fabulous food

Cons: No extraction fan in kitchen

Great food - unmissable!

Having enjoyed the Vegano mobile at the Sunday market we were delighted to visit the cafe today.
The beycon double cheeze burger was fantastic and amalfi lemon cake to die for. This is a lovely friendly cafe, clean and welcoming, properly made our day.

Pros: All vegan, Friendly staff, Amazing food

Baked camembert and truffle mac n cheese = yum!

The baked camembert and the truffle mac n cheese were really incredible in their texture and taste.

Staff were knowledgeable and helpful with finding gluten free options.

There were quite a few vegan junk options on the menu which isn't our thing, so there weren't that many options to choose from. The ones we did choose were very good though.

A killer kebab on the Tyne

Great little place for 100% vegan food! There are plenty of options and the staff are friendly and happy to suggest things off the menu. The I had hot chocolate with cream 😍 and the mixed kebab. The portions are huge! We had tatter tots and garlic bread as sides, we were stuffed!

There was a table free when we got there, luckily (Friday evening) it may be worth calling and reserving a spot if you want to go at popular times

Well worth the visit!

Best burger I’ve EVER had!

A had the Ultimate Chez Burger and it was best burger I’ve had (been vegan 6 years and had many). The burger sauce made it! You can tell everything is homemade, which I love

Pros: Stylish decor , Relaxing atmosphere

Cons: A tad expensive

Great food

We booked here on a Saturday night as there don’t seem to be too many vegan places in Newcastle open on a Saturday night. The menu looked fairly simple, burgers, kebabs, pasta and pizza. I ordered a berry smoothie which was really tasty. We shared tater tots and they were the nicest tater tots I’ve ever tasted. I’m not sure if it was the sriracha, the chilli or just the spices on them but they were delicious. I ordered a verdure pizza with artichoke, mushrooms and onions, among other things. It was a good sized pizza and filling without feeling like it was too much. It was really nice, from the crust to the toppings. Highly recommend this place. The staff were nice too. My partner enjoyed his pasta dish.

Loved it!

This place has such a warm, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu is totally vegan with some creative choices, we enjoyed the deep fried ravioli, truffle mac and cheese, olives and penne carbonara followed by tiramisu. Watch out-we went late on a Saturday evening and a few things had sold or, including the home made baked Camembert😒a hearty meal for two, one dessert and two glasses of wine came to £50 plus service, pretty good. Recommended for vegans and non vegans alike!

Pros: 100% vegan, Great service

Amazing kebab

We ate here after visiting the Discovery museum and I'm really glad we were in the neighborhood. The kebab was huge and really tasty with loads of salad and spicy sauce. If anything, it was a bit too much and I couldn't finish the chips. The desserts sounded great but we were too full and also had to leave for our train home. Will definitely return if I come back to Newcastle.

Amazing kebabs

Today myself and my mam (both vegan) went to Newcastle Quayside Market and i finally got to try one of Vegano's kebabs. I had heard many great things about them. The kebab was huge, but it was also so lovley that i was determined to finish it, it was filled with fresh salad plenty of their chicken substitute and a beautifully tasty and fresh sauce. The staff were lovely and the food was prepared to order but very quickly. Definitely will have again.

Food stall @ Quayside Market

Vegano is iedere zondag ook aanwezig op de Quayside Market. Mixed kebab met drie soorten "vlees" en drie soorten saus was heerlijk en meer dan genoeg voor lunch.

Best Vegan Restaurant I have ever been to

The food here is SO delicious. It tastes like food your mum/grandma would make (if they were Mediterranean, that is).

Pizzas are cheesiest, most delicious pizzas I have ever had. Burgers are also best ones I have ever tried.

Nothing is too greasy and even though it may seem like "fast food" kind of food - it tastes like it was made with all the love and care.

Star of the show are their kebabs - SO GOOD!

The portions are huge but so addictive they leave you wanting to eat more!

Every time I come here I get a feeling of being like at home. The staff are lovely and very friendly.

Honestly, best food (including vegan and non-vegan) I have ever had.

Pros: Best food ever, Amazing kebabs, pizzas and burgers, Great desserts too

Cons: I dislike nothing of this place

Great service, tasty food

2019: We came in the evening and enjoyed really delicious bruschetta to share, carbonara pasta and no-meat ball pasta. Really tasty, all of it! Service great, the friendly staff explained that the breakfast and lunch menu are separate and brought them over for us to see. We could see for example maple pancake stack or overnight muesli which would defo be chosen for a breakfast option, the lunch menu also had a burger etc as well as pasta. A new direction food-wise compared to the Sunday morning truck so not what we were expecting but very nice indeed. Nicely decorated cafe with shelves made out of sections of pipe and wood boards and bar stools also a mixture of wood and metal. The evening menu seems slightly limited in terms of choices but if this keeps thing simple so they can provide tasty food and good service then so be it!

June 2021: much bigger menu these days. Bruschetta a highlight. Facon bits a bit strange on the mac n cheese as so ‘hard’ felt like bits of uncooked pasta! Burger tasty but once deconstructed not photogenic!! Lots, not hungry when left!!!!

Dec 2021: nice quiet bite after booster jab. Baked camembert starter AMAZING. Oldboy burger lovely and juicy. Special kebab pizza very nice indeed. No room for pudding!!!

Vegano

Absolutely delightful fully vegan cafe. We had the bruschetta and pate to start; both were divine. For mains I had the carbonara which was rich and full of flavour, and my husband had the burger, which he described as up there with the best. The staff were attentive and lovely and the mood and atmosphere is relaxed with a genuine sense that this business is ethically driven. Loved it 😍

Pros: All vegan and a real range of choices , Beautifully flavoured dishes , Great vibe, attentive staff, and ethical feel

Cons: It’s a bit out of the way

Delicious food - can't wait to go back!

We visited Vegano in May 2021 and what a find it was! Lots of options - pizza, pasta, burgers, kebabs and everything sounded delicious. We had the mixed kebab (which was huge and tasty) and a spaghetti carbonara ( a bit smaller but just as tasty). The biscoff cheesecake was out of this world. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town!
