Looking for a restaurant for a special occasion dinner that caters for Vegans - and not just one boring option, somewhere that actually has OPTIONS FOR VEGANS - i know this is rare!! As local as possible, but am willing to travel for something special. PLEASE HELP. The special occasion is at the end of Jan so i haven't got long to organise it!! Thanks in advance neighbours :)

There are a few vegan catering options in Peckham levels, and you can drink in the bar and get many of them delivered so people have a wide choice, but Wildflower is a separate restaurant and is particularly lovely https://wildflowerpeckham.uk/

Further afield, people seem keen on The Gate for fancier meals but I haven't tried it myself https://thegaterestaurants.com/#menus.

This vegan Japanese place near Kings Cross is really good http://www.itadakizen-uk.com/.

Club Mexicana at the Spread Eagle in Homerton is fun and tasty (but noisy and far away!)

Few more suggestions here but I would say none of the rest of these are particularly "special occasion dinner" suitable of the ones that I've tried https://secretldn.com/vegan-restaurants-london/.

El pastor in London Bridge has good and tasty options but its always busy!

Mildreds is great, they even have real nice desserts and there are spread across london,

Voodoo Rays Peckham has room and good vegan options,

The rye pub has vegan options too and have a cute lil restaurant area

Rock Rum Steady Lounge on North Cross Road do Vegan Options https://docs.wixstatic.com/ugd/ca4780_9867971cbc524410b4869af9a9ad1d64.pdf

Picky Wops at The White Horse Pub Peckham Rye do the best pizzas ever! They made a pizza for me with a Plantain base, wow!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
