Pleasant new pub

I'd give this pub 3.5* if half stars were possible!

We visited The Hummingbird for lunch on my partners birthday after seeing a number of vegan options clearly listed.

We both chose the tandoori cauliflower with onion bhaji - not the ideal for a review but it was what we both wanted!

It was clearly properly made in house, not a heated dish like some chain pubs have (tasty & useful as some of those chains are!).

It was a lighter meal than expected for the price, no rice for example. I think we were both a bit peckish soon after!

But rather than splurge on pudding we had coffee with soy milk, great that there IS soy milk here. Many of the Vegan-option-foodie-pubs don't have soy milk.

I would happily go back to The Hummingbird, especially while they have a special 2/3 course meal over Christmas that looked decent for the price. But perhaps not at a time that I'm looking to watch the pennies.

After going for a cocktail there one Thursday evening I'd also be careful going in the evening for dinner - it has a great buzz both day & night. But it felt a bit noisy for a dinner venue.

Good pub - not quite a full 4* to me, as that's the highest ranking you can give a non-veg establishment. But it's certainly decent.

Pros: Vegan options made with real effort, Have soy milk for tea/coffee

Cons: Honeyed parsnips were labelled vegan at one point!
