I love this place! There are so many options for a Vegan and many options for people with other dietary restrictions! The flavor of the food is delicious even a carnivore will love it! The atmosphere is very fun and the staff is nice!

A spacious cafe with nice outdoor area. The food offered is healthy. There is a salad bar and the ingredients are fresh. Dressings are addictive. I ended my meal with tasty Indian tea. Good serive and prices.

Pay by weight of the food concept.
The moment you enter you see a little boat with a wonderful spread. It's more like going for a salad buffet if you ask me. - everything healthy and everything vegan
Must try

Another place with a different concept. They have a buffet where you serve up whatever you want on to the plate and they bill you on the total weight. If I am not mistaken they charge £25 per kg. Your damage on the wallet will be around £8-10 if you are a light eater. Good different concept and nice food. They have some healthy juices as well. Definitely a place to try.

Amazing concept! I googled the best veggie places in london and this was on the list. Basically you walk in, busy restaurant in an alley, with a bar where you choose and pick from salads, salad bar, appetizers, hot dishes, bread and desserts. You pick you favorites from the buffet, you weigh your plate and that's it! The place has a lot of vegan and gluten free options. They change the menu daily and the combination are delicious! Here is what I had 🤗🤗

Peter Morrell goes to the new location in London’s original foodie quarter and newest creative hotspot location Bankside for a look and a taste. Since opening in 2000 tibits have built themselves a reputation as one of London’s leading vegetarian restaurants. Now to continue this success tibits’ second London restaurant has opened in a former warehouse on Bankside.

Super yummy vegetarian food. It's a elaborate buffet where once you fill your food you weigh it and pay as per the weight. Lots of vegan options to. Only a few things had eggs.Good decor. Definitely recommend this place.

This beautiful restaurant has become my favorite around London! It offers a great variety of vegetarian and vegan dishes, (at least 80% is vegan and on tuesdays all the menu is 100% vegan!) so there's plenty to choose from. It is self-service, so you'll get to choose every dish and quatitities that you fancy. Every single dish seems so appealing and fresh and the best is that the chefs are always preparing more food, which means that the 'boat' never gets empty.
Tibits is definitely a must try for those who enjoy healthy food with flavour, at a very calm and beautifully decorated space in London.

Brilliant!!!!
I love buffet style restaurants and this one is a top notch!!!
All dishes are vegetarian many vegan and gluten-free, every thing is properly labeled and the selection is vast. There's so much to choose from, all dishes are fresh and sessional and they even have a selection of tasty desserts.
You pay by weight, so you don't feel a need to as with many all-you-can-eat-buffets.
Definitely worth a visit!!!!

Place had lovely vegetarian food. I'm not sure about the weight idea- makes sense to do that with meat products but when everything is veg I'm not so sure. Means some things are more pricey because they are heavy with water not because they are more complicated. Might be better to offer price per plate or a general buffet price. While my eating companions dealt with the weight I had soup (pea-delicious) and a mock-mojito (also delicious). Staff were nice and place had highchairs and baby changing rooms.

I'ts my second vegetarian post in a row!! As a complete carnivore, it's very unlike me, however after discovering that Vegi food can be just as tasty (if not more!), I decided to visit one of London's Top Vegeterian Restaurant; Tibits in Mayfair. And let's just say my new found love for vegetarian food was furthered!

Chanced upon this place while heading out of ice bar and looking for food options. Pretty cold and raining didn't want to walk around much and saw tibitis with a board - weight and pay so wanted to check out.
So their concept is like a buffet, take a plate and put whatever you like go to the counter - they weigh the plate and you pay accordingly. Drinks separate!
And same goes for the desserts...my fav so far has been caramel crumble pudding - killing was the word.
So have options from salad, to main and one Indian dish as well, once there was daal rice(though cold) and 2nd time daliya.
I personally loved the options they had to offer and then the concept of paying as per the weight of your plate which is all worth it and doesn't pinch you.
Service - good as expected.
Was soo in luv with their food and service that decided to go back again and wasn't disappointed!

Food 4/5
Ambience 3/5 as it was all dining and no feel added to the place
Service 4/5
VFM - 4/5
Overall experience - 3.5/5 only coz it doesn't give you anything more than good food, service
Would I go back: yess for sure, have even suggested to some.

Exceeded expectations! Amazing healthy spread that all diets can enjoy. Their soup is a great light and tasty starter. The healthy buffet is one of the best I've seen in Central London - nice big variety of hot and cold dishes that are clearly marked for dietary purposes. Desserts are not healthy though, despite having vegan options they all seem to have refined sugar (besides the cocao pudding). That said, the toffee pudding and raspberry crumble are worth the indulgence! Service was helpful and friendly but slow (we cleared our own plates between courses) hence the 0,5 points missing here. Ambiance is really nice, value for money is great, will be back and highly recommend.

Before heading to see Cats - the Musical with my mum recently, we had dinner at Tibits an amazing restaurant in Mayfair. Tibits is a Vegetarian and Vegan restaurant, that I found in the London Vegetarian Guide (picked up at Vegfest London a while back). The restaurant is the genius creation from three Swiss Brothers and they have seven restaurants in Switzerland as well as this award winning one based in the Regents Street Food Quarter in Central London. They offer food for every meal, from breakfast through to delicious desserts after dinner. The menu changes daily and the food is always freshly prepared on the day!

I had the opportunity to visit Tibits, a vegetarian restaurant on Heddon St in London. Anyone who knows central London knows that this little enclave off Regent St is a goldmine for foodies. It is always buzzing. Being a committed carnivore Tibits was a real eye-opener for me. I had a notion that vegetarian food wasn’t very exciting and that I would miss my meat. I couldn’t have been more wrong!

There’s not much vegetarian restaurants floating about in London, and Tibits always had intrigued me. I am all for trying all kinds of foods out, so what’s the deal with Tibits?. Tibits were created by two families passionate about food, in total there are 8 restaurants. London only branch in Hendon Street has Momo’s as their neighbours.

Food is served in buffet boat style, the menu changes throughout the day ranging from market fresh salads, joyful hot food inspired by different cuisines, tantalizing desserts.
If you can control yourself a meal should set you back to £6-7, you pay by the weight per plate. The meat-free meatballs taste unbelievably good, just like ones using real meat. Wakame seaweed salad is irresistibly good. I had the great privilege to have a natural Greek yogurt, manuka honey, passion fruit with lavender whipped by their chef Leo for breakfast.

Deep in the lanes of London on a visit to Oxford, my brother remembered this place which he had once visited long ago. The fun thing about this place is that they sell food that you pick up by its weight. The ambiance was really comforting and warm and the cool thing was that the staff involvement was very low in the entire procedure so it's easier for them too. My brother picked up a salad and then some desserts which came up to £3 approx each which was pretty good. What I got was a Jasmine Flower tea which was amazinnnng! Never had anything like it! There actually was a jasmine flower inside it!! Look at the pics if you don't believe me. Would totally recommend this place to someone who's in the mood for a nice comfy veg meal.

To say this is another self-service vegetarian eatery would be disparaging. As the London chapter of the decades-old Zurich establishment Hiltl (the oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world), Tibits is a pioneer in this space. This is a cosy restaurant, with a wholesome feel to the food. The menu is inspired by seasonal produce and flavours, so there’s always something fresh to look forward to. It’s always bustling, drawing in varied diners of all ages and backgrounds. The mood at lunch is more casual, but the dim lighting and candles add a nice touch during dinner. It’s especially fun during summer months, when you can so easily while away a good part of the evening sitting in the lively outdoors area on the pedestrianised Heddon street, with a crisp white wine and refreshing summer salad.

In all the hustle and bustle and fanfare of Mayfair, this nice little eatery stands out. Reasonably priced healthy food and good craft beer on sale. I don't know how they manage to keep the prices down in such a locality but because of that you will see exactly the crowd one loves to hangout with. Couch-surfers, students, tourists and lovers of eclectic food. Ohh also I saw a hen-party group when I was there. Beware this review is not all-encompassing. Enjoy the food :)

While I am a known carnivore amongst my friends and vegetarian restaurants seem to me like they are missing the main course, Tibits is one vegetarian restaurant that I actually really like.
Initially I enjoyed the novelty of having a buffet that you can pick and choose what and how much food you want on your plate, I loved that in hotels when I was little, and the fact that you just pay by weight, so there's no dish that's more expensive and you can pay according to how much you wish to eat.
The food itself is all delicious and you get to try lots of different dishes so there is something there for everyone. They also have a very nice juice selection and organic beer.
The atmosphere is very relaxed and the furniture looks very pretty in pastel colours and rustic elements. When it's warm you can sit outside and enjoy the sun and fresh air and it does make you forget you are at the heart of central London.

It's a great place to go to on a Sunday after all the bad things you did to your stomach the day before (especially when you're the "I diet all week and then eat like mad on Saturday" type). The food is (or just very well appears to be) light and healthy. The buffet choice is varied. I also recommend a warm ginger/lemon concoction sold at the till - great for the cold ;-)

What a lucky find on our trip to London. Great place to relax if you're in this area shopping. It's located in a pedestrian sidestreet and is really a pleasant little area to sit outside. The food was very good and the buffet style was great for my daughter to be able to test new foods. We really enjoyed this restaurant. Too bad people can smoke in outside eating areas here, but that's no fault of the restaurant and can't be avoided.

Dried Green Bean Salad - YUM!. I will go to this place just to have the dried green bean salad. It is my favorite thing there.
This is the kind of place that is great to take my mother or meet a friend for lunch.
My husband found it to be okay, but he's the kind that prefers to have meat on his plate. He can't find the satisfaction in salads like I can.
I think it's especially nice during the summer, lighter selections of food and a nice patio to boot. They also have hot vegetable dishes that are very filling and tasty.

... I decided to go to Tibits. I have been to Tibits numerous times, even before I became a vegan, and I always enjoyed it. It is tucked away in Heddon Street, just off Regents Street, which is very handy for any shoppers or tourists visiting Hamleys or such. It is quite spacious inside with two floors, and an outside seating area.

Tucked away on pedestrianised street in Central London, tibits was buzzing when we walked in at around 1.30pm on a rainy afternoon. They don’t take reservations and it’s a ‘seat yourself’ kind of place but we were informed by a member of staff that the upstairs area was full and we’d have to eat downstairs. This suited us fine and we headed down to an almost empty room to take our choice of seats (a cosy corner table)… and then back up to get our food!

Maybe It's Because

By Maria Derevianko

Since it was the much anticipated pancake day and I had a very busy schedule, I didn't have time to make my own pancakes in the morning, furthermore, I didn't even have time to even have breakfast! Running around all morning I was hoping to stuff my face with pancakes later on in the day at Ethos, as they were celebrating Pancake day, like every place should have been. To my disappointment, when I finally had time to go down to Ethos, at about 3.30 the poor chef was having a rest from flipping them all morning and afternoon and the food was running very low too so I decided to go to Tibits.

I have been to Tibits numerous times, even before I became a vegan, and I always enjoyed it. It is tucked away in Heddon Street, just off Regents Street, which is very handy for any shoppers or tourists visiting Hamleys or such.

It is quite spacious inside with two floors, and an outside seating area. As you walk in you are greeted with their 'food boat' and spacious seating, not always with a member of staff. It is pretty informal so sometimes there are people to greet you and other times you just come in and choose a seat yourself, put all your things down, grab your purse and pick up a plate and pile on until your heart's content before you pay for it all at the counter.

As you may have figured, it is a buffet, and it is pay by weight. Tibits being a small Swiss chain, they launched a few years back and have been one of the first ones to start this concept in the healthy eating game and have paved the way to many others. I personally think it is a great idea, especially for people who don't normally "go" vegetarian, as they can choose lots of different foods and see all the different flavours and textures, I have hooked a few of my carnivore friends with the help of Tibits before, muahaha.

Great news is that from the 3rd March their 'food boat' will be completely vegan, every Tuesday, free of any animal involvement which is fantastic news, more choice for the vegans!

The food boat is incredible, there are many hot and cold dishes, as well as desserts, all constantly topped up and replaced by the chef's, none of the food looks stale or dried out which just encourages you even more to try everything!

The cuisine is global and varies from Indian to Mediterranean to Italian to more European. There is also a juice and alcoholic beverages bar, just depends if you fancy a glass of wine or a glass of juice with your meal, everything is reasonably priced, considering the quality and location.

I went for some potato wedges, country style, leek potato quiche with organic spelt and tomatoes, biryani soru with tofu, carrots, sultanas all being medium spicy and a mushroom antipasti with bell peppers and courgette cubes with rocket. This was more than enough for me and I had a pretty pallet of colours and flavours. You also get a free bread roll with your meal, but as I try to be gluten-free when possible I didn't go for the bread, as it does also fill you up, or shall I say bloat you up.

As I sat down in my quiet corner which felt like I was in my gran'mas living room with mismatching vintage wallpaper, big cushions and mirrors on the wall and square wooden tables, I tucked into my food. Leek potato quiche was one of my favourites from the meal, it was warm, comforting with those creamy potatoes there like one of my ex favourite dishes - potato gratin, and overall the leek works perfectly with the potatoes as well as all the other ingredients. Potato wedges were nicely done, not as nice as they are in inSpiral as those are coated in spices and herbs and are very crispy, these were also nice having some mild spices on them. Moving on to the Biryani which was nice and slightly spicy but I didn't like the tofu there, as it should have been fried a little longer or just not there at all as it actually felt like it was unnecessary in that dish, I would have preferred to just have the rice with carrots, sultanas and more spices. Finally the mushroom antipasti, this was delicious and reminded me of a dish we have back at home where we marinate wild mushrooms, but these had more of a bite to them and were quite meaty; being button mushrooms it had a fresher version with a nice combination of flavours and textures.

I didn't end up trying their pancakes, as I was pretty stuffed, my fault really having chosen so many potato dishes and eating so fast, so I guess I have to wait another year to have an excuse to stuff my face with savoury and sweet pancakes.

Sober N Starving

What: Vegetarian Restaurant

Where: Picadilly Circus

Value: £25

Food Review: There are various drinks on offer from the usual to the intresting healthy juices. As an vegetarian open bar they have all the usual of hummous and falafel to the more intresting combinations. They choice is open to vegans aswell. The desserts are equally good and provided is a variety of choice. When paying you pay once you have put the amount of food you would like. This makes it difficult to choose and difficult to pay if more than one person.

Settings Review: Located down a quiet back road, away from the busy shops alongside other eateries. From the outside a pretty inviting look and from the inside a casual dining environment. Situated downstairs equals a quieter area to talk but this does make it difficult to carry food.

Positives: lots of choice for veggies and vegans

Negatives: pricey, a buffet but hard to take seconds

Located in a beautiful fairy lit little court yard just off Regents Street, Tibits is a salad bar with a difference.

Offering over 40 hot, cold, sweet and savoury vegetarian dishes that changed daily, were carefully sourced and influenced by Asia, India and the Mediterranean. There was something to suit every palate (unless a complete carnivore).

If this wasn’t enough, each dish was also very clearly labelled, making it perfect for fellow Low FODMAP dieters, vegetarians, vegans, gluten free and any other dietary requirements.

I acted like a kid in a very healthy candy store stacking my plate high. Weighing my mountain at the till I will admit I had gone slightly overboard but I did not care there was just so much to choose from.

Glass of organic red wine in hand we sat down at a quiet table beside the bar and tucked in.

I am pleased to say that the food was not only a great concept but also tasted amazing, everything was obviously fresh and since ‘picky teas’ have been a favourite of mine since I was a child I liked the creativity of making my own meal out of so many combinations.

Though this restaurant was self service it was far from your standard ‘all you can eat’ buffet; it had style and meals containing subsistence .

I can absolutely see why Tibits was recently given the title of Best Vegetarian Restaurant in the Cook Vegetarian Awards, I have never eaten anywhere like it and is now my go to when shopping at that side of town.

Just before Christmas I had the opportunity to visit Tibits, a vegetarian restaurant on Heddon St in London. Anyone who knows central London knows that this little enclave off Regent St is a goldmine for foodies. It is always buzzing. Being a committed carnivore Tibits was a real eye-opener for me. I had a notion that vegetarian food wasn’t very exciting and that I would miss my meat. I couldn’t have been more wrong!
The restaurant is spread over 2 floors and also has a nice courtyard area outside which I’m sure would be lovely in summer. The way it works is like this. Unlike a traditional restaurant there is no table ordering for food. There is instead a central island in the shape of a boat on which all the dishes are presented. There are plenty of hot and cold foods, sauces, oils and breads to choose from. After you have been seated you go up to the boat, grab a plate and pile on whatever you fancy. You then take your plate up to the counter area where it is weighed and you are charged accordingly. The beauty of this is that there is no wastage, you just eat as much, or as little, as your appetite requires.
After you have eaten your main course you then go back for dessert and follow the same process. It also needs to be mentioned that each dish also comes with directives as to whether it contains nuts, soy, gluten etc or are suitable for kids, vegans……. I thought this was a very clever tool and certainly gives you confidence in your choices if you are on a restricted diet.
As for my food, it was delicious. Everything appeared to be seasonal and freshly prepared. Sometimes these set-ups can look a bit depleted or tired at the end of the day but this was not the case here. There was such a wide choice available that we didn’t have room to check out the dishes on the other side of the boat, another visit is on the cards for sure. The wait staff were friendly and service was good. As your food and drink is paid for upfront there is no waiting around for a bill either which I found to be a blessing. There is a full bar and whilst I’m sure the pressed-to-order juices are good we opted for cocktails, nothing like a hot toddy on a cold winter’s day.
I had taken along a vegetarian friend to get another perspective and she was also impressed. She was glad I had introduced her to somewhere new and has since been back a couple of times. I am definitely not going to be so blasé about trying a vegetarian restaurant in the future, my eyes have been opened to a new ‘experience’ and I liked it! A big thumbs up Tibits, you made this carnivore a convert to vegetarian restaurants. As the great Arnold Schwarzenegger once famously said ‘I’ll be back!’

This is a place where food is priced by its weight ! We had been here for lunch and it was brimming with people. Somehow we found a small table.
A bread loaf was given complimentary and all the rest were weighed and paid for and then we could eat!
Starters and salads were fresh. Though there was a lot of variety cold foods were more than hot foods. Kus Kus rice was really yum and even the desserts were good.
Even though we had thought it will be quite cheap as how much will a person eat in terms of weight you have to chose carefully as some food weight more!
A good experience.

I'm not vegetarian but I always enjoy vegetarian food whenever I have the chance and this place has such a large selection that you just want to try everything. The food is fresh and I was really impressed with the alternatives.
The place was recommended by a vegan friend of mine and I still can't believe how tasty it was. The desserts are also really good and because you pay by quantity you can taste a little bit from each of them.
I can't wait to go back and take my vegetarian friends there to surprise them with this great place.

It's an all vegetarian buffet and salad bar. The food is fresh and flavoursome tasting, the price is decent, and the decor is clean and comfortable. The downstairs section has a play area. So extra points for being so child friendly in such a central London location.

Not found of self service places to eat but Tibits made my day. a variety cold and hot food to choose from- watever you like and pay for how much you can eat as per the weight (pay by weight).
A buzzy place and super friendly staff.
Comfort food with fresh stuff, good taste like a home cooked food.
Must try quinoa salad with cranberries.
Definitely a must try place.

I am going through a vegetarian phase at the moment, and before this I had never realized quite how many great veggie choices we have in London. It is a very pleasant surprise!

The restaurant has a really good ambiance and a very interesting concept; the food is available as a buffet and you pay by weight of plate. It gives you a chance to control the amount of food that you want, although if your eyes are bigger than your stomach (which is the case with me) you may end up a little more than you eat. However, I feel that every time I come back, I get a little better at estimating how much I am going to eat.

The food is super fresh, and there is a great selection of teas (I would recommend the chocolate chai) and delicious fruit juices. This is a great place for when you want to stay on the healthy side but do not want to skimp out on flavour.

Food - 4 / 5 Variety of options, from soup to desert. Of course, as other reviews mention, it's a full vegetarian restaurant, but that doesn't limit the options. Serves a lot of uncooked items as well (fruits, etc).

Ambiance - 4 / 5 - Nice indoor and outdoor seating arrangement, and is slightly inside the street, so no noise from the traffic on the main road.

Cost - 3.5 / 5 - It's a little pricey for the amount of food you get. But I guess it's okay to go there once in a while.

Overall, I am happy that I found a restaurant in London where the menu actually has choices for vegetarians.

I am not a vegetarian but I still enjoyed the food. Plenty of selection and yes it is a little pricey but as you pay for how much you put on your plate you only have yourself to blame.

Good location and a great place for lunch especially when it is hot outside as it's not too heavy so you can still enjoy the rest of the day without the need for a nap.

Again very tasty food and this is from a non-veg. I would definitely visit again.

A little warning though as it's not a table service place if you are going alone with lots of bags this may not be the best place. You will need a friend to look after your items and go up and get your food one at a time.

Magdalena Marchwiany

Food is delish! Staff efficient and super nice! And reading previous comments I get a little bit defensive of the place as it is quite commonly described as 'salad bar'. It is not!
There is a wider and more interesting selection of hot dishes that you can imagine.
And I do not understand people who are more likely to spend £20 for a bottle of mediocre wine but £12 for a plate of fresh oragnic food is too much. I suppose it is depending on priorities in your life:)

Conveniently located just off Regent's Street, Tibbits offers the best vegetarian spread i have even seen. Being a vegetarian, i understand the importance and comfort of being in a complete vegetarian restaurant. Good ambiance, very spacious and a small bar to keep the evening uncomplicated and enjoyable.

Ideally located close to Regent Street, Tibits is a vegetarian / vegan that offers all the more tastier than the other buffet dishes. The restaurant has been completely designed and decorated by Trisha Guild, English designer known for his flowery wallpaper.
Is used at the buffet and then pay by weight. Know that there is a maximum weight is 12 pounds if I remember correctly, beyond which the price is blocked. The restaurant terrace of ade more enjoyable that once the heyday income (yes we believe) will be a perfect base after a shopping spree!

It is a vegetarian buffet salad bar and is centrally located.
The menu keeps changing as per the days of the week.It includes cold and hot dishes and quite good for those who prefer healthy meals.The dessert menu seems quite interesting-ranging from fruits to cheesecakes.Good for those having a sweet tooth.
Overall,a reasonably priced restaurant for a quick meal

Great place for vegetarians!! Though it is expensive but I don't mind paying if the quality is high and you get what you pay for.

The restaurant is buffet style self service but the choice is amazing and the food is very tasty. A lot of healthy options and raw food as well. They are quick to replenish foods that are low as well. One thing that I've never seen anywhere else is that they clearly state whether food includes onions or garlic as those are two foods I try to avoid. There are a great selection of juices available. The food at the counter was very quickly replenished and there are staff walking about if you need anything.

The food you pay for is done by weight of the food which is different. The only problem with that is you don't really know how much you are paying until you go t the till and by that time it is already on your plate. The average price we saw about £10 per plate but then one of our friends did manage to rack up around £15 or £16!

Overall the evening was pleasant and lovely created by the atmosphere and the food was great with no stress. Highly recommended veg restaurant and I will be a regular there!

I hardly ever go to a full-veggie place, at least regularly. I happened to discover Tibits because of an event that I attended here (at basement) We all had the option to buy our food/drinks from upstairs before the meeting started.

I was amazed to look at the variety they have. And all of it looked so delicious. You can pick up your food from the shelves (they do both hot and cold) and take it to the counter and they charge you according to the weight (thank goodness not yours, but food's). The food was awesome, I found the pea salad particularly good. Paid about 12 pound for a semi-large plate.

They also serve drinks; I had a glass of wine (5 pound)

Stuck to one, because your mind starts thinking healthy when you are eating the food here.

They also have great vegan desserts - toffee pudding cake was fab.

A paradise for the vegetarians. It's an all vegan place and even mentions on every dish what has onions,garlic,milk products.

The concept here is to pay per gram of food that you eat. They have a spread of around 30-40 hot and cold dishes.

They even accept the taste card and a meal for two with non alcoholic drinks and desserts would usually cost you around 25 quids

Fresh juices are great too.

Incredibly delicious vegetarian food. You can't go wrong with any of it. Haven't found better vegetarian food in London.

Serve yourself and pay by the weight of your dish.

Very nice vegan/vegetarian restaurant ,self service buffet in which you pay for the food by the gram. Once selected, take to the till, weigh and pay. Lovely cosy dining and great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Disappointed the juices not made fresh to order.

It's a self service buffet concept. I went on a Tuesday when it's a fully vegan day but the rest of the week they have almost completely vegan cuisine too. The food is delicious and there is so much to choose from. Very nice space too. I will visit again for sure.

Karol Vontszemu

The best vegan place to go and eat. Or even just to have a drink. The food is incredibly tasty and delicious! Huge arrange of food to choose from and I also have to underline that the staff is very helpful and kind. You gotta live this place and you’ll always come back. I guarantee that!

My favourite place to eat when im out and about! I love how this place is a pay-by-plate buffet, so you can get a little or a lot. Ive gotten full plates for between £10-£13. You cant fault the selection of choice either! Some choices they keep daily, others they switch out throughout the week. If you have food intolerances, each item is marked with what it contains (dairy, soy, nuts, ect) and the staff can answer any other questions. I ate here often during my trip to England and I cant wait to return.

Haden Boardman

Fabulous selection of veg and vegan food. Unique self service. Good selections of drinks. You pay by the weight, and it's very easy build a rather large bill! Good atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Chenxiao Hu

Delicious and healthy. I absolutely loved the dried beans salad which recipe is enclosed. The restaurant works as buffet - you have as much as you want and then weigh it at the counter, so you pay just as much as you eat. I think it was around 2.60£ during lunch, and 2.90£ for dinner. Which makes a full plate around 9-10£. Would give them 5 stars if all waiters were friendly.

LOVE THE PLACE & THE FOOD.... NOT THE WEIGHING THOUGH This has been a Vegetarian/Vegan stalwart for some years and my latest visit had come with an absence of a couple of years. But I'm pleased to say, the food is as good as ever, the service is a little ad-hoc but as this is a self-serve restaurant that's too be expected. I believe this was the first restaurant in London to introduce the idea of paying for food by weight and its an invention I think we could all do without. The right food choices, you have a hearty meal and don't pay a kings ransom. However, pick the wrong ones, your appetite won't be anywhere near sated and you'll need to remortgage the house. It really is my only criticism of this establishment. A set price for a plate full (even it was £15) would be far better than the laborious guesswork and fear that is associated with your selections. But being off Regent Street (Heddon Street is becoming a little food mecca these days) it's great for a drop in and if you ask the staff (if you can find one), I'm sure they'll advise on the best selections to get the best price. The seating outside is an added bonus for a balmy autumn evening and their licenced too, if you don't want to be too healthy. In truth it should be on every Vegetarian/Vegan/ Healthy eaters go to list. But just watch those portion sizes.

The food here is delicious! There is soo much choice and most of the food is vegan friendly. I was so pleased to see quite a few desserts too. I spent around £23 for 3 medium sized plates. My friend who is not vegan also loved it, we will definitely be back! Very friendly and welcoming staff and a lovely atmosphere. (Please note I was too excited to take more pictures 😁)

This is the best casual chic vegan/vegetarian buffet restaurant, lucky London to have it!! I always plan my trip in order to have time for lunch at tibits! Friendly staff and super choice . It’s always difficult to maintain a buffet in good condition, but here,people are very polite and handle foods with care and respect, the decoration is very cool chic and the space very big. Even if it’s full, you will always have your privacy to enjoy your plate... only thing to improve is the choicely non dairy ice creams.... can’t wait to be back!!

Emma Stevens

There was a large range of delicious dishes, packed full of nutrition and flavour. I can't believe everything was vegan, felt like there was so much choice and something suitable for everyone. A nice vibe and everything was spot on, including the delicious range of desserts too. My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Karim Kanfoudi (Sun Adventures)

This is easily top 10 best vegan/vegetarian restaurants in London. It's a great place for a business lunch or even taking someone on a date. It's a buffet style but don't get carried away because they charge by the weight and its certainly not cheap. I also STRONGLY recommend going for the deserts here :) Every Tuesday they serve 100% vegan.

Kanae Sakazume

Healthy and delicious, really kind for vegetarians. The best part of this place is that you can see the actual menus right infront of you and control the amount so you can taste wide range of foods. Better to go at lunch rather than dinner.

Sophia Bano

A friend of mine recommended this self service restaurant for dinner. It's a fantastic place with a great variety of vegetarian dishes to choose from. Each dish that I tried was extremely tasty. The staff was very welcoming and I thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance too. Definitely will visit this place again.

verna.banana

A wonderful place to eat vegan and gluten free food in central London. Everything tastes delicious and so much to choose from too, including desserts! Have been back a few times because it’s just such a nice place for a quick lunch or dinner :)

Webi-Manya ASSIH

Nice place to eat vegetarian food! You pay according to your plate weight so you can have a non pleasant surprise at the cashier. Apart from that the food was nice. And the venue is really cool to relax and chill out

Vinayak Ram

Fresh and high quality vegetarian food. Good selection of salads and hot food. Resonably priced at approx £10-14 per head. It's self service and you pay by the weight of the plate.
