Vegan eats at Glasto

[cazzatron]

Hiya all

As a first timer at Glasto I am sure I will be spoilt for choice for vegan food - just wondering if there was any particularly good recommendations that pop up year after year?

Excited for June - can you tell?

Thanks!

Hey, have a great time at your first Glastonbury! There are so many vegan and vegetarian places to get food Mostly away from the main areas around the Pyramid and Other Stages. I always get veggie food from the friendly Bhuddahs. it's free, (though donations can be given), is very tasty and I think is vegan too but not too sure on that. In the Greenfields there is a lovely big van where 'veggies' lives. They do really good vegan/vegetarian fast foods. I am forgetting loads of vegan places but I know others on here will know them. But basically, you will be spoilt for choice

Manic Organic in the Greenpeace area (just off the railway track before Avalon) - very, very tasty, it's vegetarian and more than likely vegan too, I'm not too sure but some friendly folk on here would be able to help you on that

Enjoy the fest! I'm jealous you get to experience it for the first time

Thanks guys! 

I am going with two 'Glasto veterans' who are super excited to show me around - I really cannot wait! Will definitely check those areas out

Had an amazing chickpea curry last year (pretty sure it was vegan friendly), I'll try and remember the name of the place but it was just as you approach the Pyramid from the left of the stage.

In all my years of going to Glastonbury, I have never tried No Bones Jones. Just had a look at their website and this year I am definitely going to have some. Looks well tasty!

If you turn left by the Leftfield Stage, the friendly Buddahs are down that strip on the right hand side. They are in a big yellow and blue marquee

cheers pal I'll  be sure to check it out!

Thali Cafe and Buddhafields (kind of opposite each other near Croissant Neuf) are both great. Everywhere in the Greenfields is veggie and almost everywhere there has vegan options. Manic Organic is lovely too, but the queues can be mammoth. On the path between Greenpeace and Avalon is a pizza yurt which does veggie pizzas, and they make a vegan option (with tahini). 

As previously mentioned, the 'friendly Buddhas' are the Hare Krishas - they serve free food but donations are appreciated if you can afford to give.

Stand with your back to the West Holts stage. Walk straight on towards Leftfield (past the toilets). The Hare Krishnas are on the left.*

 

*unless they've moved them again. They used to be near the Glade.

Nice one pie. Always fancied giving these a go and donation but have never spotted them.

Goat to have fresh breath....

 

No. That was bad. I'll stop that. ^^

Also, don't forget the loveliness that is Permaculture - the food is great, huge portions and very yummy - plus you get the benefit of seats, proper plates and cutlery.

Can't beat Ghandi's Flip Flop

Another vote for No Bones Jones!

I volunteered at the festival last year, and they were one of the places open on the Tuesday before the gates opened. Had the bowl of assorted food they do, and it was a taste party in my mouth! Ended up randomly meeting their staff again later and shared some drinks.

(Full disclosure: I'm full of Glastonbury beans today, need that ticket on Sunday!!!)

Ghandi's Flip Flop and No Bones Jones are where it's at. They're my headliners every year.
