So much more than words can transmit - Edit
One of the ultimate stand out vegan places I’ve ever been to in my life. The three of us had their famous £22 Sunday Roast extravaganza each selecting a different meat (roast chicken, lamb and turkey). You are also provided with a Yorkshire Pudding then it’s self-service vegetables and all the usual trimmings such as sauces, stuffing and lashings of gravy. I had a bit of everything, piled my plate high then proceeded to devour the whole feast with a pint of their delicious Posh Lager overlooking Petticoat Lane Market. Not a bad way to spend an early Sunday afternoon before hitting The Oval for some T20 cricket action.

Just perfect. - Edit
Loved everything about this place. The food was delicious, the staff super friendly, the venue hip and happening, and the place is 100% non-profit and goes to saving the lives of animals. Coming back that's for sure!

Amazing brunch - Edit
Came here for a Saturday morning brunch, and I ordered the chicken & waffles. It was a big portion, good for the price. The waffles were perfectly fluffy, and the seitan chicken was crunchy and juicy in comparison. Drizzled with maple syrup, it was a wonderful meal. The coffee was average but the food more than made up for it. Very friendly staff too. Will definitely come back here for dinner.

Indulge and help animals in the same time - Edit
The great thing about Unity, (apart from the fact that profits go to vegan causes) is that you find most of your classic favourite foods in a vegan version. Even fish and chips or prawns! There are also healthy options.
Read moreI had the Surge burger, whose patty is made in house. I also tried the cheesecake which was delicious and beautifully served.
The first time I visited Unity was right when they opened and it did not leave a good impression on me. I am glad that I returned and that I could experience what my friends have been telling me for a while, that Unity has become one of the best vegan restaurants in London.
Pros: Inspiring, nice interior, Profits go to vegan causes, Beautiful food presentation

Average Vegan Food - Edit
The food here is nice enough but nothing I would rush out to have again. The prawn starter was the highlight of the meal. The service was friendly when we could get their attention but overall they were not very attentive.

Great food for a great cause - Edit
We had breakfast here and we got the full English breakfast and the chikken waffles.
Read moreBoth were very nice and it still amazes me what we can now have as vegans.
Good drinks choice too, with all the non dairy milks available.
All the profits of the diner go to the organisation Surge, which does valuable work around animal welfare and veganism.
Pros: Great food, Friendly staff

Brilliant Ethical Vegan Diner - Edit
Love this place - food is great and menu continually evolving - favourites include delicious fish and chips, hot dogs, moving mountains burger and prawn tempura...
Read moreBest of all, this place is non-profit with all profits going to Surge (an animal rights awareness charity) + setting up an animal sanctuary.
With more and more chains trying to cash in on the vegan wave, it is great to be able to support truly ethical places such as this.

It was alright - Edit
There are better options in London. Tofish was great but the burgers were just alright compared to other well known vegan chicken burger joints. The atmosphere was nice though.

A No Brainer For Anyone Interested In High Quality Ethical Food - Edit
As someone who is transitioning from vegetarianism to veganism Unity Diner was a restaurant that I had to go to when I was in London and I was not disappointed! We were welcomed by friendly staff members and quickly given menus/ had our order taken.
Read moreThe food was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection my friend who is a meat eater was astounded by the taste and genuinely loved the food. Everything was of such a high standard and it was lovely to see such a wide array of people dining here showing that veganism is truly for everyone. I had the Surf N Turf Dog, Chunky Chips and the Peanut Butter Blondie- I have no faults aside from the tempura tasting freakishly similar but this isn't necessarily a con just shows how hard the team work to create realistic versions.
Overall, I am so happy we came the food was 10000% worth the money, journey and service and I would wholeheartedly come back in a heartbeat.
Pros: Efficient service and incredibly friendly staff, Delicious freshly prepared high quality food, A moral animal rights backdrop

Consistently great food and service - Edit
I would highly recommend this as a place to take non vegans to showcase what can be done with fast food.
Read moreCame here for the second time with two meat eaters who were really impressed.
They have clearly put a lot of effort into the menu. It's very difficult to decide what to choose!

The food was so poor, completely bland and greasy. We both left feeling very unwell. We got a couple of starters and sides and they were unbelievably overpriced.

The food is good if you're looking for the more traditional meals veganized, I wanted to eat something healthy but went on a weekend so the entire menu wasn't available. I went for the full english which was pretty nice.

Great burger - Edit
Came here because it’s Earthling Ed’s restaurant and it did not disappoint! We enjoyed the cauliflower wings and the cheesecake but our favourite was the Moving Mountains burger - one of the best burgers we’ve ever had. Unfortunately not 5* just because there were some issues with the service, and because it was so expensive (£12 for a burger) - although we do appreciate that the restaurant is run for charity. The mural on the wall is beautiful too 💚

Great informal vegan diner - Edit
Finally managed to come here and because it was a workday afternoon, the diner was not packed as on all the other occassions I tried to nip in for a quick lunch or snack previously.
Read moreWe had the loaded nachos, a burger and the caesar salad. All very good, although despite opting for the salad, I did not have any room left for the cheese cake. So, beware of the size of the salad.
Oh, note that if you order a burger, it doesn't come with fries or side salad and the fries weren't marked gluten free, which I suppose means they are not. Bit unfortunate as my boyfriend can't digest gluten and he would normally have some fries with his gluten free burger. Anyways, the burger got the thumbs up.
Guess I'll have to come back for that cake some time.

Delicious - Edit
Great food and friendly staff. One con is I wouldn't come here in a rush (like on your lunch break from work) as I did. It wasn't a place I was able to get away from quickly, as it took a while for a staff member to be free, and then to bring over the bill and get it paid. With that exception, a great place.
Read moreCons: Slightly slow service

The best vegan restaurant I've ever been to - Edit
no words for how utterly amazing this place is! beautiful, ethical, amazing food and the kindest staff who care so much about the place. had a great great chat with the staff who are so full of love and energy, very inspiring to be in an ethical place all about the animals. I had so much off the menu as I couldn't help myself it all sounded so good and it was just as amazing as it sounded, the surge burger is a must!! the seitan is also perfect at this place, best I've had. a must visit... thank you unity diner!!!

Great vegan grub for a great cause! - Edit
Everything on the menu is vegan and looks appetising. Although slightly pricey, this restaurant is not for profit - all profits go towards activism & an animal sanctuary, so I don't feel bad about spending a little more than usual on my food.
Read moreIt's mostly vegan junk food, but there are a couple of healthier options (I just couldn't resist the seitan chikken triple!! When in Rome...)
Pros: All vegan, Tasty, Charity
Cons: Slightly pricey, Bar/Social area would be nice
