The Veganuary Menus Really Worth Trying

January in London has become just as much about discovery as discipline. What began as a month-long reset has evolved into a showcase for some of the city’s most creative kitchens, with chefs embracing Veganuary as an opportunity to experiment, refine and rethink what plant-based dining can be.
From refined London tasting menus and elegant hotel restaurants to neighbourhood spots quietly doing vegan food better than most, the 2026 Veganuary offerings prove that eating plant-led no longer means sacrificing flavour, technique or atmosphere. These are the places making a compelling case for going vegan… at least for the month.

Bōkan 37
High above Canary Wharf, Bōkan’s seven-course menu pushes vegan dishes past any boundaries. Created by Executive Chef Robert Manea, the £79 menu showcases seasonal produce through high-end dishes from winter truffle tagliatelle to vegetable gyoza with a wasabi-citrus kick, finishing with a rich chocolate dessert that feels suitably celebratory for the sky-scraping setting.

Winter Garden at The Landmark London
Set under the hotel’s iconic glass atrium, The Winter Garden’s Veganuary menu is as refined as the setting. The three-course lunch is £47 per person and dinner is £55, with dishes that run from Jerusalem artichoke risotto to herb-studded gnocchi and a light coconut mousse. The overall feel here is warming rather than heavy, quite fitting for brisk January days. The menu is on until 31 January.

Cinnamon Kitchen
Across four London locations, Vivek Singh’s Cinnamon Collection delivers one of Veganuary’s strongest value propositions. The four-course vegan sharing menus combine spice with comfort and familiarity through dishes like watermelon chaat, spiced koftas and slow-cooked curries alongside clever plant-based reworks of much-loved classics. It’s accessible, at £30 for four courses and perfect for sharing.

The Restaurant at Sanderson London
Sanderson’s Veganuary menu focuses on flavour-led plant-based dishes designed for indulgent winter dining. Rather than treating Veganuary as a side project, the restaurant keeps the experience aligned with its usual mood, offering a way to eat vegan in January without it feeling like a departure from how you’d normally dine here.

Cellar at Kindred
At Kindred’s Cellar, plant-based dining feels like an exciting option rather than a sort of fleeting obligation. Seasonal small plates take centre stage, from mushroom pizzettes with vegan ricotta to savoury miso-glazed vegetables. It’s informal, making the perfect mid-week dinner or casual date, providing a glimmer of proof that neighbourhood restaurants can do Veganuary just as well as destination dining rooms.

Vori Greek Kitchen
Greek restaurants have always lent themselves to plant-based eating, and this Veganuary offering leans into that tradition. Expect slow-cooked Gigantes butter beans, lemon-bright Revithada chickpeas and a feta-free take on the classic Greek salad, alongside Salata Vori — seasonal beets with walnut skordalia and beet greens. The standout, though, is the Stifado: wild mushrooms braised with petimezi molasses, cinnamon and nutmeg.

CORD by Le Cordon Bleu
CORD’s plant-based menu shows that vegan dining can somehow sit comfortably within the world of fine French cooking. Designed with the same technical precision as its meat-led dishes, the offering is a celebration of seasonal produce. The standout is the balsamic-marinated beetroot, paired with creamy cashews and a vibrant rocket pesto; a path to follow for vegan dining when the salads and grains might start to get a bit repetitive.

House of Ming
House of Ming’s Veganuary offering works best at lunchtime, where a small selection of plant-based dishes sits naturally within the wider menu. Options like crystal pickled vegetables to start and Ma Po tofu for a main deliver heat without feeling heavy, making it a straightforward choice for a vegan-friendly lunch that doesn’t ask too much of you.

Straits Kitchen

CERU
CERU’s Veganuary offering leans into the Levantine flavours the restaurant does best. The hero dish is an Apple, Mint and Pomegranate Salad which is bright, fresh and designed to be shared. It particularly pairs well with their house vegan and gluten-free pilsner brewed exclusively by Hop Kettle Brewery.
