Love food? Visit this place. Want or need to choose gluten free, vegan and minimally processed food that is first of all simply great tasting and just as important, safe for you? Mark this place a favourite - it is world class. Wild Food really is one of those rare places I want to visit over and over to *experience* pretty much everything on the menu. Creative, colourful, charismatic and charming dishes are in great supply. It is *really* difficult to choose during the first visit. Raw (rawr!) Pizza, some of the best vegan 'cheesecake' I have ever eaten (and I have eaten many), wonderful umami rich dishes, gorgeous garlic bread and ludicrously indulgent chocolate ganache dessert. Just some of the highlights. Also striking is that the Wild Food people really appear to love the food they are helping serve. They are happy to talk about it, make recommendations and answer questions.

Excellent plant based cafe. The staff were lovely, smiley, helpful and knowledgeable. The food was even better. Great flavours, very fresh tasting with lovely ingredients. Thoroughly recommend the pancakes. They had a great texture and the orange cream with them was fantastic.

Excellent - like a posher wiser ‘sister’ version of the original funky Covent Garden branch. This branch features healthy gluten free pizzas which are inventive and still comforting. The decor is elegant and vibrant, spacious and elegant. This is a great place for an evening meal, groups, romantic date or a quick lunch.

Wild Food Cafe Islington is a temple of nourishment and coming home to yourself. The symphony of flavours of the beautiful created dishes takes you on a journey of remembering the true relationship with nourishment. I have never before felt my body so happy seeing the food and eating. I can literally feel every cell in my body getting excited to receive this divine food. The wild dishes are highly nurturing on so many levels: optically, texture wise, flavour wise, nutrient wise, plus they do ignite your inspiration and creativity also. The place in itself it’s an oasis of relaxation and joy. It looks so pleasing to the eyes: the lighting, the colour scheme, the textures (looove the soft pink macaroon like chairs my favourites ;)), the hosts are so welcoming and ready to make sure that you have a wonderful experience. I love the elevated pizza, then queen of the forest for cold winter days, the unicorn rainbow cake is my absolute favourite - a fabulous cross between dreamy cheesecake and ice cream - having the perfect light creamy texture and temperature. But don’t take my word for it, go and gift this experience to yourself. Might be the most delicious break and meal you had in ages. Most likely you may find me there :) see you soon! Enjoy! Bon appetite!

Great place to chill with friends. Must try their kale crackers, so special and tasty! Pizza is good but could be cheaper. Staffs are very sweet and helpful. Highly recommend for vegan and vegetarians.

As their name suggests, an eatery serving lots of natural homemade plant based faire. Vegan, vegetarian and gluten free friendly depending on the particular dish. This was my second visit, each time I ordered something different, and each time what was served up was very tasty. Not cheap but that's the current status quo if we wish to eat natural when eating out.

Like dining in Heaven! I’ve not been so completely and deliciously nourished since I was last at The Covent Garden Wild Food Café! The service was excellent and the knowledge about the superb wild ingredients was part of THE big story I am so grateful to be made to feel a part of by the wonderful team there. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to come back!

Came here with my friend to have dessert. We shared the chocolate tart and salted caramel slice. Both were excellent and it would be difficult to pick a favourite. The service was very friendly and as there was a delay in our order being delivered, we got a second round of drinks on the house. 😊 My only regret is that I'd already eaten dinner and there was no room to try any of the other items on the menu. Guessing from the other diners plates, these would have been delicious as well. I'm definitely coming back to try the mains!

This restaurant really exceeded expectations. Hard to find such a trendy and well designed restaurant serving you delicious and comforting vegan food. Had one of their house juices: the purple galaxy. It was surprisingly refreshing with a unique blend of pear, ginger, lime and purple cabbage. The courgette pasta carbonerra was a dream of a rich and delicious dish. I couldn’t believe it was a vegan sauce! Finished the lunch off with a nice coconut flat white. Will have to come for their desserts next time. Left feeling really fresh and healthy, full on a delicious lunch.

Had been a while since I came here and absolutely loved their new menu! Every dish we ordered was delicious! The carbonara courgetti was the stand out dish for me but equally so was the banana bread dessert! Service was so attentive and the place has such a nice vibe and cute decor. We’ll be back!
