The Magic Cafe, 110 Magdalen Road, Oxford OX4 1RQ
Tucked away on the south side of Oxford, in a triangulate town and gown estate that is commonly referred to as “The Mystical Triangle”, The Magic Cafe is a throwback to the 60’s beards-and-sandals type of vegetarianism and would equal, and better, anything found in that [...]
Jyoti’s Vegetarian, 1045 Stratford Road, Hall Green, Birmingham B28 8AS
Jyoti’s Vegetarian Indian Restaurant is the only vegetarian Indian restaurant in Birmingham – and it’s also the best! Half sweet shop, half Indian restaurant, eating at Jhotti’s was a delight. For Lunch I had the Thali which is a bit of everything, with a coconut sweet [...]
The Wedge Cafe, 13 High Street, Coventry CV1 5RE
The Wedge Bookshop and Cafe in Coventry closed a long time ago but while it was open it served good, wholesome, vegetarian food. When I worked in the city centre I used to have lunch there regularly and I miss the variety of food that was always [...]

The Hub, 4 Wharf Road, St Ives, Cornwall TR26 1LF
If you are in St Ives then you’ve got to go to the Hub, either for the food, for the bar, for their coffee or simply for the location. What could be better than sitting back and relaxing in this “style bar” looking out across [...]
Blas Burgerworks, The Warren, St Ives, Cornwall TR26 2EA
Tucked away in a narrow side street behind the lifeboat station at St Ives is Blas Burgerworks. All eco-rustic and local-organic Blas offers a couple of vegetarian burgers that are above average. There is a blackbean burger, served in two ways, and a “Sunflower Burger” which is [...]
Cafe Irie, 38 Fore Street, Newquay, Cornwall TR7 1LP
Not vegetarian but close. If you’ve just been surfing and want a chilled place to relax when you’re stoked then this is the place. Cafe Irie is on Fore Street, next door to Northshore, and sits in the middle of Newquay’s surf/stag divide.
Wagamama’s, Touchwood, Solihull B91 3GS
It’s always a bit messy eating at Wagamama, a Japanese noodle bar originating in London and now a chain seemingly as widespread as McDonalds. The dishes are usually some combination of noodles and soup and are eaten with a small flat wooden ladle and/or chopsticks. Slurping noodles that wriggle endlessly from [...]
Summersault, 27 High Street, Rugby CV21 3BW
Summersault is the only vegetarian restaurant for miles around so I suppose I had quite high expectations; but when I visited it for a midweek lunch I was a little disappointed.
The White Horse, 4-6 Clarendon Avenue, Leamington Spa, CV32 5PZ
The White Horse vegetarian Sunday Lunch Nut Roast doesn’t arrive on a plate it arrives in a dish and is swimming in gravy. The whole meal was quite enjoyable, the nut roast wedge was solid and flavourful and sat on top of a bed of cabbage, [...]

Revolver, Bishop’s Tachbrook, CV33 9RN
The Revolver is a GastroPub which has set out to be “a recreation of a Seventies Steak House”. Unfortunately it is too good a recreation with the food being of passable quality and overpriced …just like in the Seventies.
Avoid altogether if you are Vegetarian – there is nothing enjoyable for you [...]
