Veganuary in Leeds: The Best Vegan-Friendly Food Spots at Wellington Place

Our Top Vegan-Friendly Restaurants in Leeds

Veganuary’s mission to encourage more people to test out a vegan diet started back in 2014. In that first year, the charity received 3,000 sign ups. Fast forward to 2023, and a record-breaking 700,000 people took part.

Tempted to join the challenge this year? Whether you’re driven by animal welfare, your own health or the environment, we’re here to help make Veganuary as easy as possible. Check out these vegan-friendly restaurants and cafes at Wellington Place in Leeds.

1) The Good Luck Club

After an option that’s not only good for Veganuary but isn’t too hefty on your wallet? Based at the heart of Wellington Place, The Good Luck Club offers just that!

Its January offer menu has a selection of dishes available at just £9 each including an extremely tempting vegan burger bursting with beans, corn, and peas, topped with guacamole, romaine, tomato, red onion and beetroot drizzled with sriracha mayo and served with salted shoestring fries. Yes, thank you!
