Vegan junk for the soul - Edit
A well known name on the Edinburgh vegan food scene for good reason! Delicious Mac n cheese, toasties and other dishes they have made over the years. Okay prices for what you get and their own made vegan meat alternatives are also really nice.
Read morePros: Lots of toasties/grilled cheeze sandwiches , Vegan junk food
Cons: Not a big venue

Delicious - Edit
Had the Mac and cheese toastie with fakon, super tasty and filling. Also managed to bag a packet of lorne sausage to cook at home.

Mac and cheese - Edit
I came across faceplant foods at the vegan market in 2019 and loved the macaroni so was excited to hear about the premises opening in town.
Read moreI tried the pesto macaroni which was £6.50 for a medium sized portion. It came with sun dried tomato, bacon bits and crispy onions on top which really added to the flavour. It isn’t always open so check opening hours before going. Will need to return to try a grilled cheese sandwich.
The staff here are really friendly and passionate about their venture which is fantastic to see as you don’t get that everywhere.

Honestly 10/10 would recommend. The perfect vegan treat. All made from scratch. - Edit
The perfect vegan treat. All made from scratch. Staff delightful. The mac n cheese with bacon is to die for. If you manage to catch them at Leith Market then you need to try their chicken burger too.

Great people doing great things - Edit
The folk that run this are really friendly and doing Leith a great service. Not only is their ready to eat food amazing (especially the macaroni), the square sausage packs deserve a shout out too.

Happy to see they opened in Leith! - Edit
I had tried food from FacePlant Foods in vegan festivals and other events. So it was great to see they opened in Leith. Their sandwiches are always amazing and the shop is really close to Leith Links, so you can get some takeaway to enjoy in the park. Worth going back every now and then to try new things from their ever changing menu.

Mac and Cheese toastie is amazing - Edit
Great little shop with a small menu. Make sure to get there early, they run out of things quickly.

Delicious! Can’t wait to try more! - Edit
We came here today after we heard that they were having a soft launch opening of their new shop in Leith today and it was amazing! We had a croissandwich to share, a Reuben hot sandwich and a Hawaiian hot sandwich. Everything was delicious and particularly the vegan cheese. We’re really looking forward to seeing the full menu once they’re ready and trying some more of their delicious food. A great addition to Leith and handily situated close to the Links to sit out for a wee picnic with your food.

Great addition to the City Centre - Edit
I’d already tried FacePlant Foods’ offerings at a few festivals and at Mayze, but it’s exciting to be able to pop into the Colab location whenever I need to pick up a lunch during the week. Small but perfectly formed menu. Loved my toastie!

Cheeze Toasties - Edit
If you ever thought that what Glasgow needs is a take out place specialising in vegan cheese (or cheeze) toasties, you were right! Located in the Savoy Centre, when I visited this pop up there was a big queue but my Italiano cheeze toastie was worth the wait.

So much faux meat... - Edit
You can get some sandwiches for 4-5 pounds here which seems like a great vegan lunch option in the city centre. However, the amount of the faux meat (and cheese) on the sandwiches is huge and way too much for my taste.
Read morePros: Vegan cheap sandwiches
Cons: Obscene amounts of faux meats and cheese

Most fantastic caterers and food we have ever tasted - Edit
We used FacePlant Foods as the caterers for our wedding and that is one of the best decisions we have ever made in our life. The food was not only varied and incredibly delicious and might have turned people vegan overnight, but the service FacePlant Foods provided was so professional and exceptional that people are still talking about it. FacePlant Food deserve all the praise there is! Could not recommend them any more! Thank you you wonderful people!

Hi Karen Anna,
Read moreThank you so much for a lovely review and our first! We had such a fun time catering your wedding and we are so happy that everyone enjoyed all the food. You were so bold to do a 100% vegan wedding and we were glad to be a part of such a special day. Sorry we didn't reply sooner. We didn't get a notification!
