Tibits Bankside

124 Southwark Street, London

The Vegan Food & Living team have

been huge fans of the Tibits restaurant on

Heddon Street in London for some time, so

we’re delighted to hear a new branch has

opened – Tibits Bankside. For the design

think exposed brickwork, exposed urban piping and living

plant walls, while the intimate 10-seated private dining room

downstairs has glass panelling and the garden room just

behind the Taste Modern is a real highlight. Tibits is perfectly

suited to anyone looking for a quicker dining experience,

as you choose your food from a Food Boat containing up to

40 mouth-watering dishes (some are vegetarian rather than

vegan, but they’re clearly labelled), and you can choose as

little or as much as you like and just pay by the weight! Find

out more at http://www.tibits.ch/en.
