7 Days of Plant-Based Bliss: Budget-Friendly Vegan UK Adventure

Ready for an epic vegan adventure through the UK that won’t break the bank? Buckle up, because I’m about to take you on a tour of London, Brighton, Bristol, and Bath – all while keeping your wallet (and your taste buds) happy! 🌱✈️ 

Day 1-2: London Calling

Kick off your journey in the bustling heart of London. Check-in at the wallet-friendly Z Hotel Shoreditch, then hit the ground running with lunch at Mildreds in Camden. Trust me, their shiitake tempeh dan dan noodles are to die for!

Next up, unleash your inner Banksy at the Leake Street Graffiti Tunnel (see map below). It’s a bit tricky to find (hint: look under Waterloo station), but totally worth it for the ‘gram. Pro tip: book a graffiti workshop and leave your mark on London – legally!

For dinner, treat yourself to some gourmet plant-based goodness at The Gate in Hammersmith. You’ve earned it after all that street art hunting!

Day 2 is all about hidden gems. Start with breakfast at The Fields Beneath, then lose yourself in the lush Hampstead Heath. History buffs, don’t miss Sir John Soane’s Museum – it’s like stepping into a time capsule!

Day 3: Brighton Rocks

Hop on a train and head to the seaside paradise of Brighton. Grab a quick vegan donut and coffee at Glazed and then wander through the quirky North Laine area – it’s a vintage shopper’s dream!

Lunch calls for vegan pizza at Purezza (because who doesn’t love pizza?), followed by a visit to the charmingly odd Booth Museum of Natural History. Cap off your day with sushi burritos at Happy Maki. Yes, you read that right – sushi burritos!

Day 4-5: Beautiful Bristol

Next stop: Bristol! This artsy city is a vegan paradise. Kick things off with breakfast at VX Bristol, then explore the street art in Stokes Croft. It’s like an open-air gallery!

Don’t miss the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge and Museum – the views are amazing and you can book tours between April 1st and October 31st. For dinner, Root will blow your mind with their creative dishes (Root is not fully plant-based but their menu changes monthly and they have many options).

On Day 5, step back in time aboard the SS Great Britain, then treat yourself to some guilty pleasure vegan fast food at Oowee Vegan. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!

Day 6: Bath Time

A quick train ride takes you to the historic city of Bath. Start at The Green Rocket Cafe (their vegan Full English is legendary), then travel back in time at the Roman Baths.

Frankenstein lovers, book an Escape Room experience at Mary Shelly’s House of Frankenstein! End your day with a fancy dinner at Oak Restaurant (previously known as Acorn) – it’s posh nosh that just happens to be vegan.

Day 7: London Finale

Back in London for your final day, take a peaceful stroll through Little Venice (London’s best-kept secret), then hit up Temple of Seitan for one of the best vegan burgers in town. On a sidenote, their Biscoff shake is a must-try!

For your grand finale, head to CookDaily in Boxpark Shoreditch. Their vegan bowls are the perfect send-off for your plant-based UK adventure!
