A steakhouse they may be, but their animal-friendly options
aren’t to be sniffed at. Of course, eating in a restaurant that also serves
slabs of meat is (understandably) not going to suit every vegan, but for those
whom have non-vegan family and friends, it provides a great balance for those
difficult family meals out.
And we’re not just talking about the regular falafel burger
which often frequents the vegan section of any menu. The owners of The
Warehouse have clearly put in some effort to come up with an exciting offering
for vegans, with options on the starters, mains and desserts; you don’t have to
miss out on a three course meal. From curry, to spaghetti, roasted peppers, a
stuffed ‘eggplant steak’ and the ever-popular BBQ pulled jackfruit, there is
something for everyone here.
I’ve eaten a lot of jackfruit over the past year, and I must
say that their mushroom and jackfruit burger is probably the best I’ve had; I
highly recommend it. But it was the
attention to detail with little things that impressed the most. Having vegan
mayo and other sauces available, as well as the sign on the table to indicate
which of the bottles of wine were vegan-friendly. It’s always a relief to know that a restaurant
is taking veganism so seriously.

Whilst the Colchester vegan scene has gone from strength to
strength over the past couple of years, one area that remains distinctly
lacking is places to eat out in the evenings. But as veganism continues to
grow, restaurants are starting to take notice. The re-opening of The Warehouse
on Chapel St. North is one such example.

So next time you want somewhere new to try, then pop along
to The Warehouse, and show that there is a big demand for vegan food in Colchester. That vegan menu is surely only going to keep growing.
