25 vegan kitchens in Bristol.
Part of The Vegan Ledger. Every kitchen here gets the same three-voices check: what the business claims, what customers reveal in reviews — quoted, with receipts — and what only the owner can confirm.
How we verify
Every kitchen here is checked three ways: what the business claims in its own listing, what customers actually say in reviews (quoted, not paraphrased), and what only the owner can confirm — which we hold as an open question until they answer it themselves. We won’t list a “vegan” kitchen if reviews contradict the claim; that’s cost places their listing before.
Bedminster & Southville2 kitchens
VX Bristol
Bedminster's fully vegan cafe and grocery — serving 'dirty' vegan junk food, shakes and cakes since 2015, plus a well-stocked shop of hard-to-find vegan brands and cause-supporting apparel; dog-friendly community hub.
SunRa Kitchen & Cafè ( Tasty Wraps,Fresh Falafel & coffee)
Owner-run Bedminster falafel and wrap counter famed for fresh, herb-packed falafel pita with tahini — big portions, keen prices and a warmly praised host; predominantly plant-based (an older review noted a chicken salad, so the regime is worth confirming).
Bishopston & Gloucester Road4 kitchens
Eat a Pitta - Gloucester Rd
Gloucester Road branch of the vegetarian Eat a Pitta falafel chain — big-value falafel boxes, halloumi toppers and meal deals, popular as a healthy fast-food staple.
Tomato & Basil Pizzeria
Gloucester Road pizzeria typed as vegan/vegetarian, but reviews describe dairy cheeses (goat, halloumi) and a pepperoni option — so it reads as a mixed/omnivore Italian with plant-based options, not a dedicated vegan kitchen. Good-value wood-oven pizza in a cosy room, though some starters and consistency draw criticism.
Jack the Falafel
Much-loved vegan cafe on Gloucester Road — falafel, pulled-jackfruit burritos, fresh juices and salads in a peaceful setting, with famously kind staff and a 4.9 rating.
VEGAN INDIA
Fully vegan Indian on Gloucester Road with a large menu of British-Indian classics rebuilt plant-based (mock 'lamb', 'chicken', 'prawn', tempeh, tofu) — outstanding flavour and a keen fixed-price offer, hosted warmly by Nayem; occasional service disorganisation noted.
Brislington & Knowle1 kitchen
Bristol City Centre8 kitchens
The Canteen
A Stokes Croft institution beside the Banksy mural — a vegetarian kitchen and licensed bar with a big outdoor terrace and free live music most nights; celebrated for excellent-value veggie food and a proper Bristol vibe.
Oowee Vegan Baldwin St. - Plant Based Burgers, Fried Chicken & Shakes.
Fully vegan American fast-food joint on Baldwin St — plant-based burgers, fried 'chick'n', dirty fries and shakes that win over vegans and non-vegans alike.
Cafe Kino
Long-running non-profit vegan co-op cafe-bar on Stokes Croft — hearty plant-based breakfasts and 'chikun' toasties, a gig/arts space and a proudly queer, community-first ethos.
Crispy Dosa Restaurant Bristol
Pure-vegetarian South Indian dosa house in the city centre — crispy dosas, a breakfast buffet and homestyle flavours, with named, attentive front-of-house staff.
Suyuan
Intimate plant-based Southern Chinese restaurant near the harbourside — a big, varied vegan/vegetarian menu (dumplings, braised aubergine, tofu) with an early-bird deal; a few reviewers flag an unlisted service charge and grease smell.
VeBurger - Wapping Wharf
Fully vegan burger joint at Wapping Wharf — cooked-to-order plant-based burgers and dirty fries at reasonable prices in a small unit; well loved overall, though some find the burgers thin and quality inconsistent.
Plantuguese
Bristol's fully plant-based Portuguese restaurant on Stokes Croft — small plates, peri-peri 'chicken' and vegan takes on Portuguese classics, much of it gluten-free, in a cosy room.
Herbivore Vegan Deli
Fully vegan deli at Wapping Wharf's Cargo — house-made toasties, artisan vegan cheeses and bakes from a knowledgeable, generous owner, ideal for a harbourside lunch.
Clifton & Hotwells3 kitchens
Eat a Pitta

East Village Café
All-vegan Clifton cafe and bakery with a gift shop — acclaimed almond croissants, focaccia sandwiches and cakes that vegans and non-vegans alike return to weekly.
Eat a Pitta - Clifton village
Clifton Village branch of the vegetarian Eat a Pitta falafel chain — fresh falafel salad bowls, share boxes and soups with a warm upstairs seating area over the village.
Fishponds & Downend2 kitchens
Wild Kitchen
100% vegan campus cafe at UWE Frenchay (S Block) — affordable plant-based burgers (Moving Mountains), salads and bakes with small/large plate options and friendly staff; the one recurring gripe is an over-vinegary slaw.

Chef Rachel's roving plant-based supper club in Emersons Green — seasonal, locally-sourced multi-course tasting menus at venues like Manor Hall, warmly hosted and quick to sell out.
Montpelier & Redland1 kitchen

Beloved, funky St Paul's counter for vegetarian Middle Eastern mezze — fresh-fried falafel, hummus and huge value wraps from a warmly generous husband-and-wife team.
Fi Real Restaurant / Takeaway (Vegan/ Caribbean/ Healthy food/ Smoothies/ Juices/ Vegan cakes
Soulful vegan Caribbean cafe-takeaway in St Jude's — jerk tofu, veganised island classics and rice & peas cooked fresh by a famously warm-hearted chef, with a roots-reggae vibe.
