London Vegan Beer Fest is still a few months away but planning is well underway.
This week we were finally ready to unveil the first batch of food traders and it is a sensational line up so far.
Read more below.
London Vegan Beer Fest 2026 is a huge day event full of independent breweries, live entertainment on stage, all-day karaoke, and of course the best vegan street food in the UK.
The first batch of food traders includes:
Chickenish is a plant-based street food brand born to recreate the chicken shop, without the chicken. Launched in 2021, they went viral from day one, building a cult following for bold flavours, loaded bites, and no compromises attitude. With roots in street food and years of festival experience, Chickenish delivers fast, high energy service and crowd pleasing food at some of the UK’s biggest events… including London Vegan Beer Fest!
The Hogless Roast has grown from a popular market stall serving breweries around the UK into one of the country’s best loved vegan food businesses, now based at CRATE St James Street in Walthamstow. Famous for indulgent comfort food, their menu includes the legendary Hogless Burger with all the flavours of a traditional hog roast and a Smash Cheeseburger that many fans call the best in London. Alongside their thriving restaurant, the team caters weddings, private events and festivals across the country. We are thrilled to welcome The Hogless Roast to London Vegan Beer Fest, where they’ll be serving up their unforgettable vegan street food all day long.
Don’s Donuts is bringing hot, freshly made vegan donuts and specialty barista coffee to the London Vegan Beer Fest. All donuts are tossed in a signature cinnamon sugar and come in indulgent flavours including Blackcurrant & Madagascan Vanilla Bean Custard with pistachio and lemon zest, Chocolate S’more with marshmallow, biscuit and sea salt, and the crowd-pleasing Lotus
The Mac Majesty is vegan mac n’ cheese done properly. Rich, creamy, and ridiculously cheesy considering there’s no cheese involved. They keep it simple when you want it simple, and seriously extra when you don’t. Think kimchi and gochujang mayo, garlic mushrooms and truffle oil, or ‘bacun’ bits piled on top. All the comfort, none of the cow. Long live the Mac.
Hooked is proper vegan fish and chips, no nets required. The stall has built a loyal following at various vegan events with a superstar line up of battered nof*sh fillets, golden chips, and a curry sauce pour that can’t be denied. Grab fillet f*sh burgers, classic f*sh n’ chips, and Kobe loaded chips with nori and goma mayo… all the chip shop favourites but none of the fishing industry.
The Green Grill was founded in 2018 with a mission to revolutionise the junk food scene, proving that plant-based food can be every bit as indulgent, satisfying, and craveable. 100% plant-based and home to the best Philly cheesesteak this side of the Atlantic, we are THRILLED to have The Green Grill as one of the star attractions of our food village.
That’s already an impressive line up but we have more to announce soon. You will want to arrive hungry on the day.
