Vegan Erasmus in London

Oct 17, 2008 13:38


Hi all!

I am an exchange student and I will stay in London during a year. I have tried to look for vegan food shops and second hand shops around Hampstead, but I haven't found anything.

Can somebody help me?

Thank you!

Welcome to the city of awesome vegan cake! I've recently moved here too and am enjoying the fantastic vegan scene.

Join the Vegan London Meetup (http://vegan.meetup.com/402/) and VEG London (http://www.veglondon.org/). Also London Vegans have regular events, including a lunch on the second Sunday of every month.

This website has most of what you need to know about places to eat and shop at:

What are you looking for specifically?

Welcome to London, land of awesome vegan cake...

VEG London had a vegan cake picnic outside the Tate Modern a few weeks ago and there is a good chance we will repeat it.

I love the vegan cheesecake at Green Note and Inspiral Lounge (both in Camden). Mildred's and Vitaorganic in Soho both have excellent cakes. Rootmaster off Brick Lane does a good chocolate cake. I know Whole Foods and Fresh n Wild both sell vegan cake and I have a feeling Planet Organic does as well, but I haven't actually been.

I haven't been shoe shopping here but Vegetarian Shoes is based in Brighton. As for clothes there are alot of Charity Shops selling second hand things, is there something in particular you are looking for? I would definately ask the VEG London list for things.

Animal Aid are having a Christmas Without Cruelty Fayre at the end of November which should have alot of goods on sale...
