Best Vegan Restaurants in Forestmill

"Following on the success of their Hanover Street restaurant and the wonderful cafe in the values of St John's, comes a fully vegan restaurant situated in Thistle Street. This is Edinburgh's first fully vegan restaurant, and it looks to be a great success. The menu is brimming with luxurious flavourful dishes and there is certainly no sense that by eschewing meat and dairy diners are missing out."

"Well-known for its stone-baked pizzas and organic wines, Harmonium is a restaurant that is committed to creating tasty food that is cruelty-free and plant-based.

"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!.

"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.

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!"

"And when Dan and I craved some good old fashioned greasy and unhealthy pizza, Novapizza was the ultimate answer. No doubt, it more than satiated our need!. As simply a restaurant with vegan options in Edinburgh, we expected an “eh” pizza with vegan cheese that doesn’t really taste like cheese and a minuscule amount of vegetable toppings since we’re “veggies”…"

"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.

"At Stirling Castle, you can experience interactive exhibits and gorgeous castle views. Situated high on a rocky hill, the views from the castle are worth a visit alone. There are plenty of accessible options for reaching the castle if you want to take a pram as you can park close by or walk up from the town (just mind the hill!) but keep in mind many of the exhibits inside the castle have cobblestones to access them."

"Linlithgow Palace: Used as a royal residence throughout the ages, Linlithgow Palace is located in a town of the same name and was one of the most important seats of the monarchy during the 15th and 16th-centuries. In fact, it was even the birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots!"

"If you hadn’t guessed by the ruddy great Eiffel Tower adorning the wall of the café space, there’s a French influence at large here – though the flaky brekkie croissants and pains au chocolat are as popular as the traditional breakfast fry-up or black pudding butty. All day ‘snacks’ range from the likes of croque monsieur to grilled paninis and salad. It’s the menu du jour though, available at lunch and dinner, that offers the tastiest scran, and best reason to loiter here."
