The Gate is a favorite of the vegocracy, including Madonna, Gwyneth and Paul McCartney. The Gate’s beautifully-presented plates are as delicious as they are beautiful, and unlike many of the nu vegan offerings, actually healthy.

The Canonbury Tavern
Best for Vegetarian roasts in London
The Canonbury Tavern The capital’s most comprehensive Sunday roast menu is available at. Forget rustic chalked-out menus stating the obvious (“it’s just chicken or beef today”)—the tastiest day of the week is a decadent a la carte affair here. Start your meal with a creamy caramelized onion soup topped off with mushrooms, truffles oil, and a slice of sourdough. You can also try a salad with roasted figs and beetroots topped with whipped cheese, candied walnuts, and feta. On the Sunday menu is the signature plant burger, but we prefer the inventive plant-based alternatives. Wild mushroom pithivier with feta and onions? Yes, please!

Yotam’s RoviFive of the plates are vegetarian. They range from the classic burrata with its plumpness to the celeriac shawarma that is smoky.
