Food Quality
Pros:
"This is the best vegan burger I've had in Manchester and equals the best I've had anywhere."
"The burgers were exceptional and the Cauli poppers and chips were so lovely."
"One of the best burgers I've had, no exaggeration."
"Couldn't have possibly enjoyed food any more than we did. Everything was incredible, highly recommend the mushroom wings!"
"Utterly amazing, it's been almost a week and I can still taste how delicious those Thai Fries were."
"I have never experienced vegan food like this. Burgers; superb, tater tots; amazing."
"Food was really good quality with a good atmosphere but a special mention to the BBQ burger !!! This is near perfect for me in taste, size and presentation."
"The food here is amazing, unfortunately I don’t get to visit as much as I would like due to location but every time I have had their food I have thoroughly enjoyed every bite!"
Cons:
"Only note would be the high prices. 15£ for a burger seemed highly overcharged, and it didn't even include fries!"
"Food was absolutely fantastic although small portions and pretty expensive."
"The chick'n boxes are extremely small and do not represent the cost."
"The table I was seated at was also next to an inconvenient staff area with fridges, step ladders, and other bits and bobs which were distracting from my dining experience."
"Burger was terrible missed order notes so had to scrape all the onions off and was left with 2 soggy sauce buns and 1mm width tasteless 'burger' on inside so couldn't taste anything but sauce on buns."
"The mark up on deserts is unbelievable, they are from brakes and your charging £6.50 for a slice which is not even home made and is the size of a tea spoon… Day light robbery unbelievable."
"Ordered 1 truffle burger (£15, pure robbery) and it came all alone with no basic side and on the smallest little plate. And couldn't see OR taste any truffle in it, like at all."
"The food here was delicious! I don't think I would order as much next time but we just felt like we had to try everything as it all looked and smelt amazing!!!"
Service and Staff
Pros:
"Always a pleasure to discover new vegan places to eat! Great atmosphere with fabulous customer service."
"Great service. Will come again when I next visit Manchester."
"The atmosphere was also cozy. The service was kind and fast, and the order was out in 15 minutes."
"Lovely service and atmosphere. Found the permanent place after having some of their incredible food at a festival."
"The decor is incredibly colourful and cosy, and the staff were very friendly and positive."
"Staff are wonderful and very friendly."
"The staff weren't the friendliest but that would probably change depending on who was on as we popped in another day and the staff were lovely."
"The food is so so good! We were spoilt for choice so ordered a few different things and everything was stunning."
Cons:
"Service here needs improvement. Booked for half 5 but our drinks order wasn't taken until 6:10 - do not recommend if you have plans after."
"It took 15mn to take our order, then 20 for it to arrive, then after waiting 15mn to be met for dessert we had to head inside and ask someone to get the empty plates and take our dessert order."
"In the end, I was offered a dessert on the house so I accepted, but after such a long wait to make it to the restaurant on a day they were actually open, this was not the food nor service I wanted."
"I am heartbroken to rate a vegan place so low, but I was looking forward eating here for months and even participated to the crowdfunding a year ago to end up being super disappointed."
"I absolutely love the food here. The only thing that puts me off to come back (and this got confirmed tonight) is the attitude off the staff."
"Cute little place hidden away near Victoria station. Only downside....and this carries over from the stalls is the service can be hit and miss."
"I won’t be using the delivery app ever again but I will absolutely be coming back to Wholesome Junkies. They value their customers, provide great service and fab food. Really, really impressed with them."
"I had sent a message privetly via Instagram explaining our disappointment and how some of our order was incorrect and received no reply, despite the message being read."
Atmosphere and Location
Pros:
"It was a little quiet when I visited at lunchtime but as it's not in a very busy location this is to be expected, and meant I got very quick and attentive service."
"This place was super cute, lovely interior."
"Outside seating is OK, not the nicest, but they can't really help where they are. It's at least fairly quiet."
"So they moved to Mirabel St and have those lovely tables to sit outside. Great idea if you want to sit in sun for your lunch!"
"We went here for my birthday and we were blown away by the service and the food!"
"Great atmosphere, beautiful interior, super friendly staff and unbelievably delicious food (and coffees)!!"
"The most amazing vegan food and the best cocktail I’ve ever taken!! Such a cute hidden restaurant."
"Wonderful, quirky and charming! The food was delicious, some of the best vegan junk food I've ever had."
Cons:
"100% book a table as this place is tiny and gets very busy, we still had to wait a little bit even though we booked."
"They had really good vegan fast food. All dishes were plant based. Only note would be the high prices."
"I had the vegan lamb, I’ve not eaten meat for 39 years so I can’t remember what lamb tastes like to compare it, but as a vegan meal, it was delicious."
"The main point of coming back to Manchester is to come here. I have never experienced vegan food like this."
"Not their fault but the area is really shady and noisy also, so get a seat inside of you can. It is cosy."
"Great atmosphere, beautiful interior, super friendly staff and unbelievably delicious food (and coffees)!!"
"We ordered food on uber eats for pick up. On google it said the place closes at 3pm. We arrived at 2:30pm and the place was already closed and we didn't get our food."
"We stumbled across this gem on our way to the arena and called in for a quick drink. The vibe in the place was amazing."
