At the time of writing, we’re still not sure whether January will bring with it another lockdown. But, for those of you partaking in Veganuary this year (or those that go cruelty-free all year round), we’ve put together a list of some of the best vegan dishes available for home delivery in Notts…
What: Crispy Shredded Chicken
Who: China Taste
Where: JustEat
How much: £5.30
The Mansfield Road takeaway has just about the best meat-free Chinese menu in the city, and veggies and vegans alike will be spoilt for choice. But the pick of the punch has to be their crispy, tangy shredded chicken.
What: Vegan Nachos
Who: Halo
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £9.50
Blending chickpeas, smashed avocado and tomatoes with some Violife dairy-free cheese alternative and a dollop of tomato and coriander salsa, Halo have created a banging cruelty-free alternative to the classic Mexican dish.
What: The Beast Vegan Gyros Box
Who: The Athenian
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £13.30
Vegan Seitan Gyros marinated in Greek herbs, vegan halloumi fries and olive oil. Served inside a box with handmade pita with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, parsley, oregano fries and a dip. Definitely not one for the faint-hearted.
What: BJ Burger
Who: 13th Element
Where: UberEats
How much: £11
As big as Boris Johnson and as delicious as the other BJ, 13th Element’s signature burger comes packed with a beyond meat patty, cheddar cheeze, bac'con jam, roasted garlic aioli and bac'con, all in a bespoke brioche bun. Hot damn.
What: Speculoos Cookies and Cream
Who: Doughnotts
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £4
With a super vegan-friendly menu guaranteed every day, picking a cruelty-free donut can feel a bit like picking which one of your kids you love the most. We went with this delight, complete with chocolate frosting and Biscoff buttercream.
What: Vegan Full English
Who: Clean Cut Kitchen
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £11
Had a late one and fancy treating yourself to a breakfast delivery? Look no further than Clean Cut’s vegan full English: sausages, mushrooms, avocado and edamame mash, hash browns, spinach, tomatoes, beans and toast. Hangover sorted.
What: Vegan Meal for Two
Who: Viva Street Food
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £29.95
If we do go into another lockdown and you’ve got a special occasion coming up, give Viva Street Food a spin. Their vegan meal for two comes equipped with your choice of two starters, two vegan curries, rice, poppadoms and chutney.
What: The Aztec
Who: Prickly Pear
Where: Deliveroo
How much: £8
The Notts vegan fast food legends provide a bumper bowl filled with black quinoa, spiced black beans, fried tofu, fresh guacamole, shredded lettuce, pickled red cabbage, fresh salsa, pink onions, sweetcorn, jalapenos and fresh lime. Dios mio.
