Vegan café closed
I’ve just heard that a 100% vegan café located in central London has closed.
Check out the details below:
Posting on their Facebook page on January 30, 2016, Vegan Hippo in Soho let customers know they are closed until further notice.
This ‘foreseeable future’ closure doesn’t bode well for the fledgling business which was on the receiving end of some extremely patchy reviews since it opened.

My boyfriend and I went there about 3 weeks ago. We gave the place…three weeks. In the evening the only choices were pierogi, burger and hot dog. We went for the burger, which had a mushy, icky consistency, like it had been microwaved. The desserts were good though. We thought they should abandona savoury food (or just offer easy-to-prepare sandwiches) and focus on good hot drinks (there was no hot chocolate!) and cakes in order to survive.
