Clean vegan and vegetarian restaurant for when you need s a break from the haggis. Don’t get me wrong, I love haggis but I try to limit my meat consumption to once a month. The rest of the time I’m looking for healthy clean food. The service is warm and welcoming. The food is amazing. I ordered a fennel salad with the aubergine which most of is call eggplant and the blue flower earl grey tiramisu option. It was a cool and refreshing variation of the old standby with chocolate and espresso using vanilla flavors and earl grey tea. I don’t know if it’s on the menu all the time but it was great. Order it off it’s there. I didn’t order it but I saw I few people being served the veggie haggis. It’s in my list for my next visit.
Really nice place with friendly and helpful staff. Fully vegetarian with lots of vegan options. We had a couple of salads to start, which sounded amazing but we're actually quite plain - wouldn't recommend. I had the vegan haggis as a main which was really nice and i would definitely recommend. I had the vegan raspberry cheesecake for dessert, which was also very night. The highlight of the meal was actually the cocktail. I had the figaro which was amazing.
Wow! An amazing lunch experience. The staff are really invested in customers having a great visit. We tried 8 different dishes and each had unique flavours. A pleasure for the eyes and taste buds. Please visit this establishment to support the gastronomic efforts.
Kind and welcoming staff. Great atmosphere and pretty decor. Fully vegetarian menu with loads of vegan options. The nibbles board is delicious. We particularly loved the vegan haggis and lion’s mane mushrooms. It was great to have a kids’ menu. The children loved the haggis and macaroni cheese. Plus it had colouring for them too.
The food was really good. The main reason for me to visit Hendersons was the fact that it is completely a vegetarian restaurant and still so highly reviewed. Still I have given food 4/5 because a couple of things which I ate didn't seem complementary to each other in taste, so the gap created due to that mismatch was what made the experience just upto the mark. Maybe that's just my palate talking and you might have a different view. Still, I would like to praise the staff and chef's prep as I found it to be one of the best vegetarian restaurants I have ever been to. Highly recommended!!! I'll definitely recommend their soup of the day, strawberry and lemon sorbet, and the bloody marry - keep it spicy 5/10 at least
