London vegan news, reviews & events
If you spend as much time as I do wandering the streets of East London, you might already know about this new-ish spot.
Today I was taking a stroll back from Mandala Cafe when I happened to glance across Roman Road and spotted a place called Somewhere Green. Curious, I popped in to ask if they had anything vegan on the food menu.

How about The Coven of Wiches, a completely plant-based deli and bar tucked inside (the bones of) an old Edwardian cinema in Walthamstow’s Wood Street Market?
Let’s just say… this isn’t your average vegan sandwich shop.

This one is for food lovers.
Third Culture Deli in London is hosting a special event in July and I strongly recommend booking tickets.

Time flies when you are releasing the most low-effort DIY podcast on the planet.
Episode 50 of a weekly podcast means Josh and I are coming up on a full year of the Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) podcast. If you have been watching all that time, I know you are not any wiser for it but hopefully we’ve been keeping you company.
The latest episode features chat about vegan pizza in Brighton, the sadness of UK seaside towns, and the strange career choices of Scarlett Johansson.
You can catch up on this latest episode via the platforms below and probably a few others I don’t know about because I am so DIY and cool. I don’t even know where my pod is published!

You know I love a good vegan market. I love them so much, I used to run a couple!
So imagine how loudly I squealed when I found out that Swansea is getting its very own vegan night market. That’s right. Swansea. At night. Vegan!

I have never believed that being vegan should stop at just avoiding animal products.
Don’t get me wrong. I love animals and won’t eat or wear them for the rest of my life. But if we’re going to build a better world for animals, we need to take a serious look at the systems that hurt people too.

Guess what I stumbled across on a recent day trip to Brighton?
Only the second location of one of the most delicious vegan sweet shops in the country. That’s right. The Fudge Patch has opened up shop on the south coast.

We are coming up to a full year of Tell Me Where I’m Going (Wrong) podcast and I can’t believe it.
A year! In a few weeks we will be releasing episode 52 of the weekly show. It has gone so quickly.
Josh and I started it for a laugh, as a way to catch up, and simply out of interest. It is not professional and we don’t have big plans for it. We just want to chat and if anyone finds comfort or entertainment in it, that’s great.
In the latest episode we chat about chaos on the Eurostar, eating vegan food in Disneyland, and the experience of seeing Pulp in concert in 2025.

I had the immense pleasure of visiting Purezza in Brighton yesterday as an invited guest and while it’s no surprise they’re serving up phenomenal vegan food, I was particularly overjoyed by one special item on their menu.
Reader, they’ve gone and done something wonderful. They’ve put tempeh on a pizza.

I was born and raised in Australia and, even though I’ve spent a good chunk of my adult life living in the UK, the idea of going back to my original country has been drifting into my thoughts more frequently.
Maybe it’s the passing of time. Maybe it’s the feeling of getting older and realising that I want to be closer to people I love. Maybe it’s just time.
