Good vegetarian food

mcluvin · 11-02-2011, 14:09

Hi,
Im new to sheffield, and was wondering if anyone could recommend any places who do good veggy food. Not vegetarian restaurants as my boyfriend refuses to go anywhere which doesnt sell meat...just a good range of veggy options.
thank you!

Bohemian in Heeley, Old House and Forum, plus also the 2 South Indian places on London Road are all crackers!

Patiently explain to him that fruits and nuts are also described as meat.

Wick At Both Ends on West St does meat and veggie options, best place I've found in town. Am in the process of going vegan at the moment though (eating the last of the stuff I have containing dairy) so I won't be able to go there anymore for food soon. Shame more pubs don't have a vegan option or three on their menus.

Jared - Are the Wick still doing the portabello mushroom burger? That was vegan friendly last time I checked (and ate it)

McLuvin - The Forum, the Old House and the Wick are the best gastropub/bar type places for all sorts of dietary tastes.

Also, a lot of the asian places in town will naturally have more meat-free options. My favourite is East One in the West One complex for a massive bowl of satay noodle soup etc.

Also, I've just started going to http://www.fusioncafe.co.uk/ on Arundel Street. It's only a daytime place but it's food is delicious and the specials board always contains at least 2 vegetarian/vegan options and my meat-eating chums have really enjoyed their orders too! (also does great cups of coffee)

Hope that's helpful.

Well done Jared on the vegan status,

I've toyed with the idea but I know for sure I'd fail with the cake.

Perhaps going to try a month later this year.

OP, my favourite place to eat is The Bohemian at Heeley. Predominantly veggie but always with a fish and a meat option.
Homemade at Nether Edge is also definitely worth a visit. ~As above.
Every Sheffield veggie has also been to the Blue Moon at some point for their homity pie, nom, nom,nom.

There are lots of places in town that do worth veggie options.
I like Sakushi as they do a lot of veggie sushi and i also love the Greek place, Parthenonas on London road and the Greedy Greek on Sharrowvale Road. Siam inter thai for thai food on London Road.
As others have mentioned, Old House, Forum, Wick and I'd add the Dev Cat to that.
At Meadowhall the gourmet burger place has lots of different veggie burger options and I had a lovely one of spicy sweet potato and mango the other day.
You won't starve.

Welcome to Sheffield!

Not so sure I'd recommend the Devonshire Cat - last time I was in there I saw a couple of things labelled "V" on their menu that aren't actually vegetarian, which is really out of order.

To the OP, Platillos in Leopold Square has a good choice of veggie and plenty for the meat eaters as well. The menu on their website usually seems up to date so you can have a look and see if its your kind of thing.

deffo all the thai places on london road.... thai orchid is my fave as it a really good, tasty range of tofu and veg based mains and starters (and it is really cheap with friendly staff so thats always a bonus!)

Hi Folks,
Jared, thanks for the nice comments. Were in the process of designing a new menu for The Wick at the moment, which will keep a large number of veggy options, as well as some vegan options too - so dont go looking to replace us just yet!!

As a vegetarian, you might also be interested in skincare products not tested on animals and not having ingredients derived from animals. If so, see below. P.S. They are also great for meat eaters.

Problem solved then. Awesome! Keep up the good work!

Hi Jared

homemade cafe in nether edge has a brilliant veggie selection, their salads are amazing and their hot food specials are great too. They try to change their menu daily and they are well worth a visit if you can make it to Nether Edge.

Can't you just turn-up at any restaurant and demand they create something specially for you ?

Badlittlepup · 14-02-2011, 20:38

Nirmals on West St/Glossop Road does really nice veggie and non-veggie food. And Ghandi's on South Road in Walkley, my OH is veggie and I eat meat and we find both those places good for us.

The Harley does the Portobello Mushroom Burger on its Happy Days diner menu - and there is one with toppings called the Audrey Hepburn too.

I'd recommend the Blue Moon cafe near the cathedral, also zeugma on London rd (a Turkish restaurant) has some nice veggie options.
