Following the success of ‘Veganuary’s’ latest campaign and Vegan Live in London last weekend, Colliers International says plant-based diets are here to stay and there are now more vegan eateries and dishes throughout the UK to meet this demand than ever before.

Ross Kirton, Head of UK Leisure Agency at Colliers International, commented, “Veganism is increasing its appeal to the health conscious consumer and the surge of plant-based restaurants that were opened last month alone is evidence of this.

'Whether for health awareness or the perfectly orchestrated Instagram food-post, Brits are becoming increasingly infatuated with plant-based eateries and will most likely be in favour of vegan dishes to sample with their loved ones this week.”

“We’ve also seen a steady increase in prospective landlord interest for niche concept space as a result of this latest food trend as well.”

The beginning of 2018 saw a surge of new vegan restaurant prospects. From the Parsons Green pub-restaurant signed by City Pub Co with Made in Chelsea sisters Lucy and Tiffany Watson, and advised by Colliers International, to By Chloe which took off this month and is now being dubbed ‘the Starbucks of vegan fast food’ according to The Times.

There are also veggie eateries that also offer vegan dishes in London such as Black Cat Cafe, Vantra, Mildred's, Ethos, The Waiting Room,

For those wanting vegan dishes outside the capital, there are a plethora of choices from Mono in Glasgow, The 8th Day in Manchester, Food For Friends in Brighton, The Oldware Shop in Liverpool to The Vegetarian Food Studio in Bath, Warehouse Café in Birmingham, V-Revolution, Manchester, Acorn Vegetarian Kitchen in Bath, and Earth Cafe, Manchester.
