Over the recent years, the demand and popularity for vegan alternatives in London has risen. And the capital is delivering!
London is frequently seen as the hotspot for vegan innovation and the plant-based movement. So believe me when I say that you can find more than your regular vegan options wherever you are (I’m talking to you chips…).
I decided to do the homework for you exploring North, South, West, and East to find the best vegan coffee shops in London. And here’s the one’s that made the cut!
9 Vegan Coffee Shops in London
1. The Gallery Cafe
ST. MARGARETS HOUSE SETTLEMENT, 21 OLD FORD RD, BETHNAL GREEN, E2 9PL
A lovely spot with a big garden and one of the first vegan cafes I discovered in London, The Gallery Cafe in Bethnal Green is a favourite within the community, and for good reason.
‘Always fresh, always tasty’ is their motto and I can assure you they stick to it.
Their menu is affordable, the coffee is locally grounded, all their sweet treats are vegan and the space is amazing for any occasion: a work sesh, a small to big reunion, or just a quiet moment with a book.
It’s open until 6 p.m. every day and they constantly host interesting events in the evening given their artsy St. Margaret’s House location. Check their calendar to plan your visit if you want to make the most of your day in the area.

2. The Fields Beneath
52A PRINCE OF WALES RD, NW5 3LN
Welcome to the most beautiful vegan cafe in Kentish Town, The Fields Beneath.
Here, they focus on four important things: coffee, food, wine, and people. Which is the exact reason why they’re so loved here (by me too…).
Their coffee is directly sourced from a friend in Costa Rica; the food is made from scratch; and they specialise in natural wine.
This is the spot to meet your friends in London and enjoy a vegan-friendly ambience, with a delicious menu and amazing people.

It’s healthy, mouth-watering, and they’re passionate about their values, which will make it an all-time vegan cafe favourite of yours.

Besides, the cafe has a vibe that is absolutely amazing. I would say it’s more of an experience than just a regular comfy place to work or chat. Don’t miss it!
