Good vegetarian restaurant within vegan options. - Edit
This place was at the end of the street from where I was staying. I went twice. The first time, I had a vegan version of their veggie omelette. I was feeling daring and got the vegan cheese despite the fact that I usually don’t like vegan cheeses. Surprise! I didn’t like the vegan cheese and it was more of a scramble than an omelette, probably because of the vegan eggs. I wouldn’t get it again. Second time, I had vegan pancakes. They were thick and very delicious! Would definitely get them again.
Read moreThe service was friendly, but not awesome or attentive. They take your order, someone drops off your food, and then no one ever comes back. You can pay on your phone and just leave, but I would have liked to order more food and drinks. The second time I went, I heard them tell the two tables next to me one a party of one and the other a party of two (all there before me) that they would need their tables back for guests waiting to eat, so they needed to settle up their checks. The couple seemed to have been there for a while, but was a bit puzzled at the request yet obliged. They were done eating and were talking over drinks. The guy on my left was just finishing his meal when they spoke to him. I would recommend making a reservation since the place is small. However, after hearing them asking two tables to leave, I wouldn’t plan on having a leisurely meal here since they might ask you to leave as well. Not sure I would go back.
Pros: Vegan Pancakes
Cons: Service

Amazing cafe and great staff - Edit
Lots of good vegan options and exceptional service from staff. They were happy to modify any dish to make it vegan (opposed to vegetarian).

One of my favorites! - Edit
I visited KIN Cafe on a busy and sunny sunday. There were no seats left, so we decided to wait outside. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we had a table in 15 minutes. They even got extra tables from somewhere for other guests.
Read moreI ordered the vegan ommelet which was made of chickpea flour. It was super thick and packed with flavor. It was filled with a lot of mushrooms, other vegetables and vegan cheese. The dish came with sourdough bread on the side. It was so good!
The other dishes looked very tasty too and the size of the portions are great. In comparison with other cafes, this one is not expensive considering the quality of the food, the lovely service and the size of the portions.
This cafe is one of my favorites in London!

Nice breakfast spot - Edit

Top Breakfast Stop - Edit
We chanced stopping in on a Saturday morning. Despite being clearly pretty booked up, the staff managed to accommodate us. I noticed they were constantly on the ball with juggling bookings and walk ins - really making the effort to get everyone fed.
Read moreI had the shakshuka (made vegan) while my husband had the Kin Breakfast. We also had a couple of coffees. The portions were pretty big for a breakfast and really kept us going through the day.
It was a bit of a squeeze in there, but can't really complain when they'd made the effort to ensure we were seated.
Pros: Really accomodating, friendly people, Great portions

Loads of vegan brunch & lunch options - Edit
Went for lunch at this lovely little cafe after finding it on Happycow. I went for the omelette because it's so rare to see a vegan omelette on a menu and it's not something I've mastered at home yet. I did like this - it was really creamy and cheesy but not much like an omelette, it was crispy on the outside but liquid inside. Still tasty though and a huge portion.
Read moreTheir coffee was excellent and they also had loads of vegan cakes and pastries, really wish I'd bought one to bring home!

Gorgeous little cafe - Edit
I liked the staff here , we were seen to very fast even though we didn’t have a booking we sat outside with a heat lamp, got served straight away even though it was super busy. Food arrived quickly too - waffles were absolutely delicious and looked so pretty, the burrito was really tasty. I really craved a green juice and theirs really hit the spot. Will definitely be visiting again but book a table next time now I know how popular it is!

Excellent place to have a lovely vegan brunch. I had one of their more popular items on the menu made a vegan. I can’t remember the name of it but have a look at the photo. It was also nice to eat outside, as the outdoor heaters made this possible in January.

Great food, bad location - Edit
Funny story. While in London my phone was diverted to a British operator (O2) and therefore dropped the data connection very often. Also, because of all the tall buildings in London it is often hard to get a good GPS reading. The result: I was quite lost and could not find the restaurant I was looking for. By accident I ended up in West End and when O2 granted me a brief moment of connectivity, I noticed that "Kin Cafe" was nearby.
Read moreWhat a lucky coincident! Because the unassuming little restaurant in an unassuming street in a residential area serves amazing food. I went for the "Chickpea curry" and it is the best chickpea based meal I've ever had. It's a true explosion of flavours, from sweet to sour to spicy. On top of that it is presented beautifully and the ingredients seem to be of good quality. Also, it's quite filling and energetic.
I am not the only one who appreciates the qualities of Kin Cafe. On a weekend around 3 o'clock (too late for lunch, too early for dinner) the place was packed and I even had to wait outside for a while. The food also took some time to arrive.
Had I known how good the food at Kin Cafe is, I would have went there on purpose. Luckily, Kin Cafe will open a second restaurant in London early 2023!
Pros: superb chickpea curry, cosy, big portion, fair price
Cons: too busy, even between lunch and dinner, located far from shops / tourist areas
