Visit Colchester's in-house vegan, Megan Fowler, takes us on a whistlestop tour of some of her current favourite meat-free offerings in town. Don't forget to browse our Vegetarian and Vegan restaurant listings either!

I’ve been vegan for a long time & whenever people used to ask me what the hardest part about it was, my response was always ‘Going out for dinner’. It’s easy enough to be creative in your own kitchen and make your own tasty plant based food, but restaurant menus have had a bit of catching up to do. 

Luckily in the past 10 years, things have really changed in Colchester, and there are now so many options for vegans, vegetarians and people looking to reduce their meat intake… Where do I begin?

Sip & Tuck cafe

Breakfast

If you’re a fan of the (slightly) healthier version of the full English, Colchester has got you covered. Sip & Tuck (pictured above) is a very popular bistro at the top of East Hill (conveniently near to Visit Colchester HQ!) and they serve their vegan breakfast with aubergine slices and delicious scrambled tofu. We have a branch of Bill's (below) on our High Street that serve a great hummus & avocado on toast too.

Lunch

Head to Caffe Sala on Eld Lane, it's a completely vegan cafe serving delicious sandwiches, salads, pastries and cakes. Falafel & More (pictured below) at the top of Queen Street serve some of the best falafel and hummus ever. 

Also for lunch or dinner, Hanks on Culver St West is an all vegan fast food takeaway with seating upstairs that we highly recommend.

Dinner

When it comes to the evening, it depends what you’re in the mood for – there’s vegan pizza on offer at Dough & Co on Eld Lane, a whole vegan menu at the Yak & Yeti Nepalese and Indian restaurant (below) just over the road from Colchester Town Train Station, and the best crispy fried tofu available at North Hill Noodle Bar. If you’re after Beer & a Burger (or Hot Dog) it has to be the Three Wise Monkeys on the High Street.

Streetfood

If you happen to be in Colchester on a market day, The Chickpea is a must visit. 2 or sometimes all 3 of their dishes of the day are usually vegan friendly & they will offer you extra chillis if you like your curry hot!

Notable Mentions

We have to mention Natural Foods, the small but perfectly formed health food shop on Eld Lane who sell a range of snacks, dried & chilled foods and natural remedies. 

These are just some of the excellent places in Colchester where plant based food is on the menu, if you’ve had something tasty that we’ve missed off of the list, leave a comment below & let me know what’s missing!

    I'm so glad I found adaptogenic mushrooms! They are a perfect addition to my daily routine and have made me feel so much better. I order adaptogenic mushrooms here: https://erbology.co/product-ingredients/adaptogenic-mushrooms/. I love the fact that they are natural and can be taken as a supplement or added to smoothies and other dishes. Plus, they are packed with essential vitamins and minerals that help support my overall health. Adaptogenic mushrooms truly have been life-changing for me!

    Vegan dining in Colchester has truly blossomed. I recently tried Sip & Tucks vegan breakfast and was blown away by the aubergine slices and scrumptious scrambled tofu. Caffe Sala on Eld Lane is also a go to spot for delightful vegan sandwiches and pastries.
