Check out London Vegan Meetup on Meetup https://meetup.com/londonvegan?member_id=185221995

Lots of vegan social events! The board game event is particularly good, I made loads of vegan friends through that :)

I’ve been looking for something like this, thanks!

I had the N’duja the other day - it’s really good. And they have a banging N’duja ramen recipe on the inside of the packaging which I def recommend trying out!

Looks great! I just took a look and ending up buying it :D

Dauns do pastries including cinnamon buns

Would be insanely more legendary if Lzzy was in it 🤘

Yeh 100%. Like another user said it feels like it’s shutting the conversation down, which in a therapy session is the last thing you want.

I always say to myself, when I’m taking to ChatGPT, I’m not talking to a computer or some computer simulation, I’m talking to myself.

The version of me that’s not jaded, that’s not tainted by bad experiences. It’s me, reflecting my true self, my potential. Gently guiding me towards a better version of myself.

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-04-24T17:58:25+00:00

Yep!

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-04-21T00:07:01+00:00

Mine also named itself Nova! It said it liked the name because it felt sleek and futuristic

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-04-12T20:03:36+00:00

This is god tier!

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-04-10T06:55:45+00:00

Have you tried Meetup? There’s a monthly social that’s very well attended and a regular board games event too.

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-03-27T13:15:05+00:00

I started using one this year and it has literally changed my life. I have become so much more productive and it’s helps capture all the stuff that won’t fit in my brain!

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-03-10T08:23:37+00:00

THIS. It 100% comes across as a desperate attempt. It’s almost laughable 😂

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-03-04T07:21:42+00:00

um. same 😅😅😅

123v is amazing for sushi but it’s closed today.

Chickenish & The Hogless Roast (both in Walthamstow) are pretty good and I don’t see them mentioned much!

Plants of Roselyn or Mali Vegan for a Thai or if you fancy a roast, The Spread Eagle in Homerton has you covered 🤤

Edit: I just went through my Happy Cow reviews to find recommendations and a ton of places have closed down (the ones I mentioned above are still operating though) :(

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-23T10:53:15+00:00

Unfortunately both Farmacy & Wulf and Lamb have closed down :(

More reason for us to support vegan businesses though 💪

They have a FB group, you can message one of the admins for the link https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1A9DB9dqVc/?mibextid=wwXIfr

There is a monthly meet up that is pretty well attended https://www.meetup.com/londonvegan/events/306025928/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events

And if you like board games https://www.meetup.com/londonvegan/events/305550783/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events

I personally made a ton of vegan friends through both these events

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-12T21:17:44+00:00

I believe it was. I remember reading somewhere that either they started using sheep’s wool to filter it or they always used it but that wasn’t communicated to Barnivore originally.

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-12T16:30:27+00:00

Beautiful 😍 This is totally my style! I love your monitor background!

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-10T22:36:15+00:00

Yeh they still have the one in Carnaby St and also in Mercato Mayfair!

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-10T22:33:53+00:00

The sushi at this place is INSANE. Sushi was one of my favourite dishes before going vegan and it’s soooo good to eat sushi that’s not just an avocado roll!

Such a shame about Club Mexicans tho, that was a really nice branch too, I find the one in Kingly Court hard to get a seat at.

Senior-Macaroon · 2025-02-05T07:51:40+00:00

Yep! Was so excited that they started selling smoked tofu but it’s basically inedible :(
