It’s okay

I came to Mildred’s in 2016 and was there most days, came back 2018 and had the Black bean red rice burrito. Expensive for how small the burrito was. There is more guacamole on the plate than the actual burrito. It tasted lovely there are pineapple pieces in the guac which is delicious but the burrito was lost with it all. It’s hard to choose a meal because of the price and you know the meals are going to be small. Unfortunately I probably won’t be back.

Pros: Taste

Cons: Expensive., Small serving size.

Went with my Omni family friends r my birthday and even my picky-eater brother enjoyed his meal. Staff were also really friendly, lovely atmosphere, great food. Can't ask for more

Great food and drinks

Lovely range, particularly enjoy the dukkah and the desserts. Have had mixed experiences with service ; once the drinks took 15 minutes (which I didn’t particularly notice) and we were generously given free drinks and dessert, but can also be incredibly slow (with waits over an hour). However, the food is lovely , as is the location

Pros: Dessert options , Range and quality of vegan food

Cons: Fairly pricey , Mixed service experiences

Good choice, bit noisy

I’ve been to Mildred’s in Kings Cross many times - for dinner and lunch. Not yet had the chance to try the brunch. I like the choice on the menu, from burgers to uber healthy salad bowls and curry‘s, stir frys and falafel in between, it offers most people something they like/fancy. The broad choice also means those returning have something new to try. Although, the burgers and chips with signature basil mayo and ketchup are so good, it took me a while before I tried anything else. Good choice across starters/mains/dessert. Menu is mostly vegan and non vegan dishes are labelled. They also have an allergy menu, although the kitchen isn’t separate so not suitable for those that are coeliac.

Pros: Many vegan options , Nice starters and desserts too, Modern interior

Cons: Gets noisy , Service can be slow at times

Great Katsu Curry!

I tried the Katsu Curry after a delicious starter of guacamole and blue corn nacho chips. Everything was delicious and I'd happily go back to have it again. I love how Mildred's menu is now vegan by default, and the non-vegan (vegetarian) options are highlighted, instead of the other way around. Only negative is that they don't take bookings so it's a bit of a wait sometimes.

We never met Mildred, but we'd like to thank her.

They might have targeted students with this location, but don't let that put you off. This ultra modern, light and airy space has bags of atmosphere with big communal dining tables or twos and fours if you wish. The full "english" veggie breakfast was really good and their own recipe baked beans were very tasty as were the kim-chi hash browns.
Apparently this place gets really busy, but at 10.30 am on a Sunday it wasn't so bad and the service was prompt and friendly. Sensible pricing.
There is a bar so I guess the evenings are lively.

Pros: Good food, good value., Pleasant relaxed atmosphere., Friendly staff

Cons: None

Consistently colourful and delicious

The food at Mildred's never disappoints - every dish is well put together and combines delicious elements. Also a nice space in general with glass windows. Service can be a bit slow sometimes, but that's expected from such a popular spot.

Good food

Came here three times when I was vegetarian - both their brunch and lunch dishes are quite good. Recommend the fried ‘chicken’. A great place for a group. The food is really filling and tasty. Cocktails are nice as well.

boring bland and pricey

Not worth the hype, extremely bland food and very pricey for what it is. Have tried the kings cross and Camden branches and they are both as bland.

A wonderful experience

My wife and I visited London from Canada for a Vegan Tour and Mildred's was one of our planned stops. It certainly did not disappoint.
The meals were wonderful and the atmosphere most welcoming and relaxed. Great service just added to the terrific vibe we got from this establishment.

Pros: Excellent Food, Friendly Staff, Nice Vibe

A bit of everything

A bit of everything: sausages and mash, pies, curry, noodles, salads, etc.
I had a very good lunch there. The waitress was very nice, the service is fast. Definitely a good option if you are catching a train in Saint Pancras, Kings Cross.

Pros: fast and friendly service, filling and tasty, choices

Cons: inside is a bit impersonal

Good food

The food is good, and the service is really friendly. I'm not sure that it is worth all the hype considering the amount of vegan restaurants there are now. I used to always get the pie from here which was absolutely delicious. A good place to take non-vegan/non-veggie friends.

Pros: Yummy food

Tasty Food

The food here is really tasty, and the restaurant is a decent size. Price is OK for London. The portion sizes are decent. Sometimes I can't finish everything! I go here a couple of times a month for brunch as the scrambled tofu is delicious.

If its busy, you can end up sharing a large table with other people - literally elbow to elbow - so bare that in mind if you are socially anxious or need your own space.

Pros: Food is really good

Cons: Can be quite loud, Can end up elbow to elbow with strangers when busy

Excellent food and fantastic service

I ordered the mushroom and ale pie with chips and mushy peas. I called them about 10 minutes in advance and asked to it to-go. They had it ready for me when I arrived, the staff were friendly and they gave me three different (delicious) sauces to dip my chips into. The food itself was delicious! Hearty, loving food that warms your heart. The only down side was they didn't give me cutlery.

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly staff, Speedy service

Cons: Didn't provide cutlery (to-go)

Delicious brunch

Most items are vegan or can be made vegan.
I enjoyed the most delicious breakfast of blueberry waffles with ice cream, tofu egg scramble, and sausage. This is my first trip to England and I will certainly eat at Mildreds again if I return to London.

Pros: Delicious, Flexibility / customizability , Variety

Cons: Crowded seating

Cramped but good food

Tables very close together, food is brilliant though.
Frustrated there is service charge is added to all bills! Disappointed in mildreds for this, feels like a money grab. Tips should be discretionary.

Well, I don't know...

To start off with something positive: It's remarkable for a hip chain of this size to not provide any meat. That's absolutely great. In fact, most of the dishes are vegan or can be made vegan on request.
Mildreds seems to be a place young people like to visit and meet up. Causal atmosphere, noisy, large range of cocktails and food that looks glossy and glowing.
I didn't particularly disliked it, however, I wasn't really won over. The prices are somewhat alright, but my meal (Mock Duck Bowl) was bland and loveless and hastily cobbled together. Vapidly pretty, that's all.
The service was fair, except I wasn't offered any dessert.
Also, the trivial music that doesn't mean to hurt anyone was somewhat annoying.

Good Food

The food is the same and just as good as the other branches. Very hearty dishes that taste great and lots of options for vegans. Restaurant is a bit noisy and busy, expect to have to wait as with the other branches. The wait is well worth it.

Plenty of tasty options

Mildreds offers great service and huge portions. The food is very tasty although a bit heavy. I am never able to finish my portion! They have plenty of vegan and vegan option dishes, and very varied. From Mexican to burgers to healthy salads. The fresh juices and gluten free dishes are also a plus.

Pros: lots of vegan and gf options, tasty, good service

Cons: heavy food

Best sweet potato fries ever!

Fantastic Polish beetroot burger & amazing sweet potato fries! Simply delicious! Staff were lovely too, friendly and helpful even though they were rushed off their feet and customers were literally queuing out the door! Brilliant to see a veggie restaurant absolutely packed (especially when Meat House London opposite appeared empty!).

Pros: Delicious vegan food, Loads of vegan choice, Friendly, helpful staff

Cons: Busy but buzzing

My fave restaurant!

Love this restaurant so much - it's vegetarian but has mostly vegan options or options that can be made vegan! We go here all the time and it's our go-to place to take our omni friends to as well. Plus they have brought the brownie back! It's a different take on their original peanut butter one but still pretty epic.

Pros: lots of vegan options , gluten free options, great staff

Cons: you can't book so get there early or be willin
