Anna Loka

Address: 114 Albany Road, CF24 3RU

Considered Cardiff’s ‘first 100% vegan café’, Anna Loka has been named one of the best vegan dining experiences in the UK by The Guardian. Perfect for any time of day, they offer a wide variety of breakfasts, lunches and dinners all ranging from £5.25-£11.95. Stand out menu items include ‘The Cali Breakfast’, the ‘Anna-Loka Rodeo Burger’ and the ‘Philly Cheese Seitan Sub’.

 

 

 

Wagamama

Address: St. Davids Shopping Centre, 14 Mill Lane, CF10 1FL

Generally perhaps the most popular of the selected vegan dining experiences, Wagamama’s is lesser known for its extensive vegan menu. Above all, when considering chain restaurants around the UK, Wagamama does an astounding job of being inclusive of all dietary needs, and doing so without compromising taste. Of particular note is their vegan take on the famous Katsu Curry – take away the chicken and replace it with aubergine, sweet potato and butternut squash and you have the Yasai Katsu – delicious.

 

 

 

 

 

Greazy Vegan

Address: 47-49 Castle Arcade, CF10 1BW

After talking to a number of people around Cardiff, Greazy Vegan seems to be the hot spot in Cardiff for a unique spin on vegan cuisine. Based on the concept of serving ‘junk food’, Greazy Vegan offers a variety of guilt-free pleasures, such as a ‘Big-Moc’, and ‘The Vopper’ – as you might perhaps gather from these punny menu items, this is no ordinary vegan dining experience. Specifically intended to mock traditional fast foods, this vegan take on beloved junk foods are absolutely worth trying.
