Best Vegan Restaurants in East Wemyss

"Casual but stylish vegan restaurant Harmonium opened its doors in Leith in 2017, and has gone from strength to strength ever since. The airy ex-pub is friendly and has a great menu that changes regularly, but at various times of year you can expect to see their take on a surf n'turf: a large seitan steak served with creamy potato puree, garlic butter, seared vegan scallops, steamed kale and green beans with smoked paprika. Other popular menu items include their battered "to-fish" supper, and their spicy jackfruit curry."

"Harmonium's focus is to deliver tasty and filling vegan comfort food, so this is the perfect place to go if you're nursing a hangover!. Their menu is true to the area, with a fair few seafood options across the menu including scallops and crab cakes. They use banana blossom for the fish in their classic fish and chips too which has received rave reviews."

"After a morning spent meandering around the vintage shops of Grassmarket, pop into this charming café for a juice, a veggie snack and a dose of green goodness. Find your perch by a pastel-hued table amid jungle-esque decor and sip on a smoothie (the Ass-Aye-Eee with berries, açai, apple and coconut milk is delightfully sweet) and nibble on a slice of toasted sourdough or a warm bowl of veggie curry."

"We didn’t know much about Scottish cuisine, except for Haggis and whisky we couldn’t actually think of anything specific. Imagine our surprise when we discovered the plethora of vegetarian and vegan dining options Edinburgh has to offer!. It must be one of the most vegetarian/vegan friendly cities we’ve come across during our travels so far."

"Just a short 10-minute drive from Straits Meadow, Novapizza is the first meat-free Italian restaurant and pizzeria in Edinburgh!. Their vegan pizza is made in-house with their signature dough and offers bags of different flavours. There’s nothing better than a few moreish slices of pizza whilst watching a movie in your accommodation and Novapizza offers light, tasty pizzas for a great price!"

"Novapizza is a legendary vegetarian Italian restaurant on edge of Stockbridge and the New Town, about a 10-15 minute walk from the city centre. While it is technically a vegetarian restaurant, most of the menu is vegan, or can be made suitable for vegans. They also have an option of a gluten-free pizza crust."

"Pumpkin Brown serves up delicious breakfasts|Courtesy of Pumpkin Brown. Located in the busy Grassmarket, Pumpkin Brown prides itself on raw, organic vegan food which is also gluten-free. It’s particularly good for a healthy breakfast, serving their signature açaí bowls and porridge loaded with toppings."

"Edinburgh is home to fantastic 100% plant-based dishes, unique and tasty. From delicious vegan Mac & Cheese to baked goods. Union of Genius (Best soups in town)"

"Pumpkin Brown is a 100 per cent vegan café in the Grassmarket serving everything from salads to hot dishes. Oh, and it’s dog-friendly, too."

"The curry laksa soup here is filed under a menu section titled ‘Big Bowl’ – and they’re not messing around. For £6.30, steaming troughs of slippery noodles, prawns, chicken pieces, tofu, bean sprouts and crab sticks come in bottomless quantities. Not to be confused with its equally delightful sister restaurant Kampung Ah Lee on Clerk Street."

"For delicious Malaysian food, head to Kampung Ali, where the portions are ginormous, but the prices are anything but. Pretty much everything on the menu is under a tenner. We recommend their curry laksa (£7.80), and Rendang chicken (£8.00)."

"The Ox on London Street is a stylish and cosy gastropub that can be found at the bottom of Broughton Street, just a short walk from the centre of town. The pub has a quieter seated area that makes it perfect for families who can enjoy a pub setting and still get away from the hustle and bustle of the bar area with the little ones. Their delicious menu has all the pub classics and they even do a special deal on burgers on Tuesdays between 6-9pm, as well as a special roast offering on Sunday."

"Located at the bottom of Broughton Street, The Ox is a lively and vibrant place serving fantastic fresh local and seasonal produce specialising in Ox related items such as Ox cheek, Oxtail soup as well as lots of other great dishes and specials. They also do a fantastic Sunday roast with all the trimmings which proves very popular as well. The Ox is a great addition to Broughton Street."

"Originally opened as a Fringe pop-up, Checkpoint is now a permanent and popular restaurant (Photo: Checkpoint). Checkpoint’s daytime menu offers a range of delicious dishes for less than a tenner, with options like the crispy halloumi burger, mac and three cheese toastie, and fish bouillabaisse stew on offer. The evening menu is slightly pricier (with most mains around £15), but the relaxed restaurant still offers affordable dining without compromising on taste or portion size."

"Checkpoint is a trendy restaurant around the corner from the National Museum of Scotland. It is close enough to the Old Town centre of Edinburgh, to be convenient for lunch or dinner on a city trip, but also far enough from the Royal Mile to have a more local feel to it. They offer a full vegan breakfast and several vegan options on their day time menu, but since I went there for dinner, I’ll tell you more about that."

Checkpoint is located in Bristo Place near the University and has an industrial contemporary interior mixed with the feeling of your own front room, think cosy and relaxing. For any sleepy heads breakfasts run throughout the day until 5pm in tandem with their lunch options."

"This is another high end restaurant in the heart of the town, with an exceptional cocktail menu. They offer full three course meals using locally sourced ingredients and unbelievable craftsmanship from its in-house chefs. Alongside the usual suspects, they also have some unique cocktails that make this the perfect spot for a romantic evening in St Andrews."

"19/05/2021: Enjoyed our lunch very much, a Christmas gift from friends. Was worth waiting for lock down to end and The Rav to open. Food was delicious, served by a very friendly Hope."
