Manna London is a vegan and plant based restaurant at 4 Erskine Road in Primrose Hill. It has served health conscious diners for almost 50 years, offering a comfortable and relaxed space for lunch, evening meals and special events.
The food is seasonal, fresh and homemade, with menus changing to reflect produce available from British farms. Influences from several cuisines keep the cooking varied while the entirely vegan format gives the restaurant a clear and consistent identity.
Lunch bites and evening dishes are joined by a Sunday roast Wellington, while the in-house deli produces sweet and savoury items for collection. The restaurant also aims to accommodate allergies and dietary concerns when given advance notice.
Vegan friendly cocktails and mocktails, protein drinks and alcohol free choices extend the plant based approach into the bar. Guests with allergies or intolerances should contact the restaurant before visiting so the team can confirm the current menu and suitable preparation.
Address: 4 Erskine Road, Primrose Hill, London NW3 3AJ, England
