Trying out Veganuary this year? It’s a little different this time around, as we’re going to have to enjoy it in our own homes rather than visit restaurants due to the current Covid 19 National Lockdown – but plenty of Colchester town centre’s finest eateries are delivering plant-based goodies to your door, so you can still try something new, whether you’re vegan curious or a seasoned herbivore.
Here are just a few of our favourites. We’ve included indication next to each one regarding which apps to use for delivery, but some of these businesses also take orders directly too, so do check before you order.
