New vegan pub food
As I was taking a leisurely stroll along the banks of the Thames earlier today, my chubby eyes spotted this enticing chalkboard:
Oh yes. ‘More vegan friendly options’ chalked across the bottom of the a-frame!
This sign was perched outside The Old Ship W6 in Hammersmith. I’ve written of the pub’s vegan-friendly nature in the past (here and here) and they have tweeted me on several occasions to highlight their vegan beer selection.
Get along over the next few weeks to try the new Autumn menu items that include this gorgeous apple crumble with almond milk custard. How good does that look?!
Get eating, London!
I had a look at their online menu and it needs work – the main menu states at the top that (VG) = vegan food but not one single dish is marked VG, not even the ‘spiced vegan burger’! Three sides are marked with (VE!) but they don’t say what this means. There are several items on the ‘starter/small plate’ and ‘salad’ sections that might be vegan (with cashew cream as an ingredient) but they are not even marked as (V) for vegetarian. I hope they have better labelling on the premises menus.
I skim menus for what is marked as veggie or (where we are lucky enough) vegan and I’m sure others are the same, I only looked closer because I knew from this article that they had something.
