Is the best vegan fish and chips in Glasgow or Edinburgh? If you would have asked me six months ago, who does the better vegan fish and chips between Edinburgh and Glasgow, I would have said Glasgow – without a shadow of a doubt. In fact, I wouldn’t have limited that opinion to just their vegan fish and chip options, I’d had widened it to vegan foodie choices in general. As an Edinburgh local, I’ve often make the journey through to Glasgow for their wider selection of vegan Asian restaurants, fast-food spots, bakeries, and plenty of other things that (as a vegan) you miss and can’t get hold of in…

Plant-Based Travel: A Guide to EasyJet’s Vegan Food Offerings
It’s been a while since I’ve flown with EasyJet but, much like the larger airlines, the last time I took a trip with them, vegan food options on the flight were frustratingly limited. My biggest plant-based in-flight bugbear? We’re way past 2020, but vegan milk alternatives still appear to bamboozle airline menu teams. HOWEVER, on my recent flight between Edinburgh and Athens, I was pleasantly surprised by the non-dairy glow-up that the EasyJet offering has been through. Here’s a detailed list of all the vegan food options on EasyJet flights (as of June 2023). Easyjet Vegan Hot Food And Mains I’m going to dive right into the most important part,…

Qatar Airways vegan meal and food review – with photos
This review covers all the vegan meal options I was served on two Qatar Airways flights: one from Edinburgh to Doha, and another from Doha to Bangkok (approx. 7.5 hours each). This vegan menu overview is what I received as part of the Economy Class service. UPDATE: This blog was originally written following a trip in December 2022. However, I made the same trip in January 2024. I made the same trip again in January 2024, and the Qatar Airways Economy Class vegan offering was exactly the same. The only difference: I wasn’t offered any small snack to replace the milk-based pretzels handed out post take-off. If you find this…

TUI vegan food review – long haul flight
Every time I catch a long-distance flight, I try to capture the vegan meal options on board in order to give other plant-based travellers a preview of what they might be offered. I’ve already covered Finnair and Air France, now here’s the kind of thing you can expect from a vegan meal with TUI. Flying with TUI This was my first flight with TUI and I wasn’t delighted that they charge you extra for baggage the way that a budget airline would. I appreciate that they sit at the lower end of the long haul services, but I was still forking out for a 10 hour flight. That being said,…

Air France vegan meal review | Vegan Travels
Air France as upped it’s vegan food game significantly since I last travelled with them almost 2 years ago. In fact, the Air France vegan meal offering has improved so much that I’d rank it as one of my best vegan plane meals to date. However, the team at Air France HQ have still got some work to do. Despite the (mostly) pleasant experience on my outward flight, their website failed to save my meal selection on the way home, leaving me with no food for my 15 hour trip back. I’ll discuss this, alongside the other things to watch out for, in this post. You can also find my…

Finnair vegan food review
Like most airlines, Finnair offer a vegan ‘special meal’ during their international flights. After years of in-flight food frustration, I wanted to share my experience of the Finnair vegan food options and how they fare versus other airlines. Flying with Finnair I’d never flown with Finnair before. A lot of people I had spoken with before my flight had scoped them out, but not one of them had ever actually flown with them. I’d decided to take a gamble with the airline for my trip from Scotland to Thailand, a decision partially made on the back of my long standing huff with Emirates (watch out vegans – they didn’t arrange…
