My Husband’s Top 5 of London

Do you all know that my husband is not from London?

Gil moved with me to the UK during COVID times and after a brief stint in Sheffield (huge culture shock to go from Mexico City to South Yorkshire in a lockdown!), we moved to London together.

During the past 4 years, I’ve been busy dragging him along to all of the vegan and plant-based establishments the city has to offer and today I’ve asked him to share his top spots with you.

If you wanna know what made his list, keep reading below.

T-shirts for Kids in London

You all know about The Third Estate, right?

The Third Estate is a vegan shoe store and ethical boutique located in Kentish Town. Run by my mates Angela and James, the store is an oasis for compassionate shoppers.

They focus on as much locally-sourced stock as possible and everything is about lessening negative impact on people, animals, and the planet. So many of my shoes and clothes come from this shop.

And now The Third Estate is selling t-shirts for children!

Plant Milks In Soap Operas

I’ve got a guilty pleasure.

I am obsessed by the often terrible but wondrously camp gay/queer storylines in British soap operas. I can’t get enough of them.

I use YouTube to catch up on my current favourite storylines. I don’t have terrestrial TV in my house (please stop sending me TV license scare letters!) so I don’t watch full episodes. Instead, I watch highlight reels on YouTube that focus on my favourite gay storylines.

I was in the midst of an Emmerdale storyline about poor Vinny being blackmailed after someone discovered his confusion surrounding his sexuality when I noticed a row of plant milks lined up in the local shop!

SKVP (as I will now call it) has a brand new location just off Oxford Street in Fitzrovia, central London.

New Menu At London Vegan Smokehouse

If you know LD’s, you know they don’t mess about. These are the culinary heavyweights who’ve been ruling the vegan roost at The Black Heart in Camden for quite a while.

But here’s the thing. Not everyone realises they also run the kitchen at Saint Monday, a laid-back brewery and pub just a short stroll from London Fields.

And now they’ve launched a brand new menu there. It’s smoky, saucy, indulgent, and unapologetically delicious in all the right ways. It’s proper BBQ comfort food with every bite screaming flavour.

See the full menu below:

Vegan Wine Raising Funds For Oceans

Some wine is vegan and some wine is not vegan.

As it’s 2025, I feel as though I don’t need to explain why some wine is not vegan. Right? You all know about the fining process and how some wines are filtered using animal by-products.

Because we are all informed consumers on this front, let me move on to telling you about a wine label that is selling all vegan drinks while also raising money for ocean conservation.

Bank Holiday Vegan Picnic in London

A bank holiday in London when the weather actually plays along is a special thing.

The city loosens up a bit, the parks start humming with life, and we all collectively pretend we aren’t as stressed as we really are.

And on this August bank holiday, there’s an extra special reason to gather up your vegan snacks and head outside.

IKEA Is A Little Strange For Vegans

Let’s have a chat about the vegan situation at the IKEA restaurant on Oxford Street, London.

First off, hats off to IKEA for offering proper vegan options. Those vegan meatballs are impressive. It’s brilliant seeing such a massive retailer embracing plant-based choices, from the plant balls to the hot dogs and even the soft serve ice cream. It really shows the tides are turning and I’m impressed.

But here’s the annoying part. The whole ordering process is an absolute muddle.

Vegan Venue In Windsor

Windsor might be best known for a certain royal residence, but you need to know about a place in town that is far more exciting to me than any palace.

Other Space Arts is a grassroots arts venue, plant-based kitchen, and bar that opened towards the end of last year, and it is doing a stellar job of putting inclusive community values front and centre.
