In the heart of Harrow, a vegan revolution is taking place. With an estimated 2.5 million Brits now enjoying a plant-based diet, Harrow's culinary landscape is transforming to cater to this growing community. Let's embark on a gastronomic journey through some of Harrow's finest vegan eateries.
Our first stop is Ahimsa – The Vegan Cafe. Nestled in the Red Lion Parade, Pinner, Ahimsa was born out of a spiritual journey through Nepal and Tibet. The cafe, open seven days a week, offers a delightful range of 100% vegan dishes, from hearty breakfasts to wholesome wraps, bowls, and burgers.
Next, we venture into the world of Caribbean flavours with Yooow Vegan. This takeaway/delivery service based in Stanmore is on a mission to debunk the myth that vegan food lacks taste. With Yooow Vegan, you can enjoy vibrant, meat-free dishes right at your doorstep.
Moving on, we find ourselves at Parathas Lounge, a gem in North Harrow that brings the tantalising flavours of South Indian cuisine to our borough. While primarily vegetarian, they offer a fantastic selection of vegan dishes, perfect for both dine-in and takeaway.
For those who enjoy traditional pub grub, The Junction in Harrow is a must-visit. This spacious pub offers an extensive vegetarian and vegan menu, ensuring everyone can enjoy a hearty meal.
Finally, we arrive at The Castle, a Harrow favourite renowned for its vegetarian and vegan Sunday roasts. Their Beetroot Wellington is a standout, but remember to book in advance to secure your spot!
As the vegan movement continues to grow, Harrow is keeping pace, offering a diverse range of dining options for plant-based food lovers. So, whether you're a seasoned vegan or just exploring, Harrow's vegan scene is sure to delight your taste buds.
