    You too can experience the gastro intestinal suffering of your meat eating brethren. The meat and chicken substitutes are surprisingly close to the real thing, but completely vegan as the name of the retailer suggests. Smoother the mass fried meats in a range of pre-cut veggies and sauces. Wrap it, slap it and whack it into a box ready to “smash”. Good for a late night eat after a hunger enduring drinking session. Nice seating area.

    What a gem of a vegan place. The portions are HUGE, the price is LOW, and the flavors are OUTSTANDING. I was thoroughly impressed with everything about this place. With endless combinations of toppings and fillings, it will keep me coming back. Quick and friendly service. This is a hands-down must go place for hearty and plentiful food, and vegan to boot!

    Fantastic alternative to a greasy meat donner. Staff were friendly and helpful. The meal deal for £8.50 was a great buy, plenty food and very filling.

    A must try for vegans looking to satisfy their kebab cravings! The texture of the 'meat' is bang on, however they are lacking on their sauces. The sauces are not fresh and tastes artificial. If they invest in real sauces with fresh ingredients, I wouldn't mind paying £10 for the meal deal! All day long

    Friendly staff, great atmosphere. I enjoyed the chicken shawarma and cleaned my plate, however after an hour from eating it, i got a stomachache which ended up making me throw up, the food wasn’t even digested and i could see some chewy chicken pieces that felt like plastic, time to go back to real chicken i guess 🥱

    Staff sat outside having a cigarette, door wide open to the shop, walked in, shop STUNK of cigarettes! Cant review food as just walked straight back out. Staff not even bothered to ask why customers walked right back out.

    Food is always superb and the portion sizes are big. It's more expensive than a normal takeaway but that's the premium for buying vegan. Paid £28 for 4 people.

    Although today I only had the Sweet Potato fries (tasty) with the Munch Special Sauce (spicy) I'm looking forward going through the menu which is 100% Vegan. Lovely girl serving, very friendly.

    I had an exceptional dining experience at Vegan Munch on Briston Road in Birmingham. The vegan food here was truly amazing, breaking away from the stereotype of bland and dry vegan options. Every dish was bursting with flavor, and the tenderness of the vegan meat was impressive. The overall taste was DELICIOUS, and I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking delicious and satisfying vegan options. Also huge portions!

    Very tasty affordable vegan food! I always opt for this place when I am short on time for cooking at home as it's reliable, healthy and a good price!

    Really tasty vegan doner kebabs, generous portion sizes and reasonable prices, comparable to meat doner kebabs. Highly recommended for vegans/vegetarians and omnivores alike.

    The two women gave a great service with a smile. Brilliant service however the food was disappointing had chicken shawama .. the chicken didn't taste nice was bland the nan was cold and dry. Sieten burger okay need a bit more seasoning and crunchyness.

  • 5/5 Zander W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great prices, great portions, tasty food - all vegan :) No complaints

  • 5/5 Alessandro V. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and great customer service. Highly recommend if you visit Birmingham and we’ll definitely visit again to try all the other dishes. Smoothies and fresh juices were made to perfection.

  • 5/5 Della R. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 J T. 2 years ago on Google
    Really tasty vegan food & lots of it (had doner & chips). Happy to see the GF stuff well-labelled too. Utterly stuffed now, cheers

  • 4/5 Zaid D. 1 year ago on Google
    Very filling and tasty vegan kebab. The fries 🍟 were good with tomato sauces. Wrap in foil should be tighter as it tends to burst from the naan. Different kebab styles for vegetarian menu.

  • 5/5 Claire P. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious food, really generous portion sizes. Great value. Recommend a visit.

  • 5/5 Jon T. 4 months ago on Google
    Still brilliant, love it here, schwarma kebab with a carrot and ginger juice, oh yeah

  • 5/5 Schoki M. 9 months ago on Google
    OMG sooo yummy! And it’s Soya, not Seitan, which makes it gluten free! Lamb, Chicken or Döner seasoning and all are delicious. Super friendly staff! And vegan super savory yummy cake too. Love this place!

  • 4/5 Nica “Nini” S. 11 months ago on Google
    The food is nice from there. I have ordered before in store to take home myself. This time I ordered the vegan lamb wrap and sweet potato fries. I did not like the fries, lack of any seasoning. The wrap was lovely and it was big. What doesn’t help is the packaging. The food does not arrive hot. It is not the riders fault, it is the packaging. Putting fries in a styrofoam box does not keep the heat in. The foil they use for the wrap doesn’t hold the heat either. Perhaps thicker foil! I will not order off deliveroo again, you pay extra and you get cold fries. The wrap was luke warm.

    Great quality food, beautiful presentation, big portions and amazing service!! Also thank you to Ab-Naseer who was so friendly and careful with my order. Great customer service and unique take out experience. :)

  • 5/5 Brandon L. 11 months ago on Google
    Got two kebab boxes one shawarma (chickenStyle) one Kebab (LambStyle), very nice, so nice in fact i felt the need to write a review, will definitely be ordering something again, decent vegan fast food is so hard to come by. Try Manchester for absolutely banging Vegan spots if you can, definitely worth it.

  • 5/5 Aiman a. 1 year ago on Google
    I was eating chicken shawarma last Saturday and the taste and sauce is indescribable, it takes you to another dimension. I advise everyone to visit the restaurant, it is clean and the service is excellent

  • 1/5 Hannah G. 1 year ago on Google
    Would give 0 stars if I could Ordered delivery Food arrived stone cold No dips were provided even though I paid for them The flatbread is like cardboard The Hummus is like glue The shwarma cous cous dish that'd supposedly highly popular according to deliveroo is a joke, few grains of cous cous, tiny portion of faux chicken, and a few spinach leaves Disgraceful Avoid avoid avoid avoid

  • 5/5 Jay H. 4 years ago on Google
    Great Vegan Food! I’ve been here a fair few times and every time the food has been a 10/10, there’s a lot to choose from and everything is priced fairly. I had an issue where it charged me twice which was a technical error and not the fault of the owner or me and he was happy to refund me the next day offering a voucher or cash. With a nice aesthetic and a friendly owner I would highly recommend 👍🏻😁

  • 5/5 Alberto 1 year ago on Google
    Super nice vegan wraps for quite cheap price! The wrap I ordered couldn't barely keep all the ingredients inside because how big it was! 100% recommended.

  • 5/5 Tracy M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing quality food!! Great friendly staff, very helpful. Great prices! I had a burger and it was the best vegan burger that I have ever tasted!! The fries were amazing and the freshly made juice was absolutely gorgeous!! Wow!! Loved it!! I wish I lived nearer to become a regular customer! I'll definitely be back in the New Year!!

  • 4/5 Luke O. 3 years ago on Google
    The food from here is spot on, it may seem a little bit expensive but you definitely get what you pay for with the size of the portions. The food is all cooked and prepared just beyond the open top counter so it gives you peace of mind actually being able to see it being prepared right in front of you. It also allows you to see how spotless the kitchen is. The only reasons I can't give 5 stars is because some of the staff can come across as rude over the phone when you're ordering. The sighing and not responding to the last thing you said makes you feel like you're burdening them, which is a shame because they are friendly when you go into the restaurant. The only other problem is that I live roughly 5 miles away and delivery to my area is not an option so I have to drive all the way there.

  • 5/5 Carrie E. 3 years ago on Google
    I’m so obsessed with their doner meat and fries it’s ridiculous

  • 3/5 Anne-Marie P. 3 years ago on Google
    Having wanted to try this place for ages I was a little disappointed with my order. We got a mix of the mezze and schwarma style wraps. The Baba ganoush was too citrusy for me and the stuffed vine leaves weren't very nice. The hummus was ok but nothing special. The wraps were a good size but the bread a little soggy being wrapped in foil for takeaway. One of the seasoning was dominated by cinnamon. It also felt quite expensive at £35, but if all the food had been up to scratch would have felt reasonable. It's great that it offers this style food totally vegan, just needs a bit of refining for me.

  • 5/5 Joshua G. 3 years ago on Google
    On the pricier side slightly, but portions are massive and delicious 😋😋

  • 1/5 Anna A. 3 years ago on Google
    Ordered the lamb shwarma and it honestly tasted so bad. I am not someone who is a fussy eater - I rarely dislike foods but I genuinely couldn't finish it.

  • 5/5 Prab S. 3 years ago on Google
    Recommended A* for food food quality

  • 5/5 Anna B. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing vegan food. I have no idea who thought of putting doner on nachos, but it worked so well! Will be ordering from here again. No pictures to show as was to nice to stop for a photo!

  • 2/5 rebecca 3 years ago on Google
    I feel bad giving 2 stars as I think it's great that it's an exclusively vegan restaurant. Unfortunately, I hate the texture of their soya protein 'meat'. It's really chewy and tasteless. The only thing that made it somewhat edible was the sauce and pickles it came with. I tried to eat around the meat as much as possible, not great

  • 2/5 Superman 3 years ago on Google
    The rating is on the food, staff are amazing. Nothing special here to make you wanna return. Didn't wanna be harsh and give a 1 star.

  • 5/5 Vikki A. 3 years ago on Google
    We've ordered so many takeaways from here now and I just have to leave a review. Every single time we have ordered from here it has been amazing. It's always hot and delicious and well presented. It's so affordable too and the portions are huge We've tried the wraps (all variations), the chicken nuggets, the hummus... The salads are so good as well! Such a good variety and quality of ingredients. The chips are really tasty too, especially with the paprika. My meat eating partner always suggests ordering from here (over other meaty places) because he loves your kebabs so much. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Ali K. 3 years ago on Google
    I can not write a positive enough review for this place. Quality of food is amazing, staff are super friendly. Portions are generously offered, service is clean and well maintained.

  • 4/5 Roberto Belenguer L. 5 years ago on Google
    100% vegan place (kudos for that!) the food is really good and the staff very friendly- we will repeat for sure. It's a real pity but some of the dishes such as the chips and the juices are served in non recyclable pack!

  • 5/5 Emil X. 3 years ago on Google
    Must be a risky decision to open a purely vegan venue. And only time will tell if it will be successful. But the food is absolutely delicious and healthy. Reasonable waiting times as well. You've got a happy customer here

  • 5/5 Abu T. 3 years ago on Google
    The best vegan fast food place in Birmingham hands down. Owner is a great man!

  • 5/5 R S. 3 years ago on Google
    I ordered a takeaway and it was amazing! Such lovely fresh flavours and ingredients and there's a great choice of veggie options you don't normally see.

  • 5/5 Rob S. 4 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Simon F. 4 years ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing food. Gonna try and roll myself out of the door soon

  • 5/5 rebecca D. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious vegan food that’s perfect for a cosy night in with friends. It’s not at cheap as their mother company (Falafel Munch) next door, but the portion sizes are large enough that you can split a box or keep the leftovers for the next day. Would 100% recommend for some casual, easy, healthy food.

  • 5/5 P d. 4 years ago on Google
    Really tasty Brown stuff, very filling, sexy staff, nice plant crawling up the wall. Can't fault it ya kno

  • 5/5 Richard M. 3 years ago on Google
    We used vegan munch today as a little treat during lockdown. Called direct and ordered our food for collection at 5pm. I have to say everything was exceptional from start to finish. Social distancing collection was a breeze. Lovely and clean inside, food ready on time, excellent customer service, contactless payment, in and out in minutes! The food was absolutely outstanding. Generous portion sizes, so much flavour, great value for money, would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Daniel M. 3 years ago on Google
    Brilliant vegan food. If you're not vegan/vegetarian don't go into it expecting meat, be more open-ended!

  • 5/5 sue p. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent food.

  • 5/5 Poppy B. 3 years ago on Google
    We order from here regularly because it's so good. Food is always hot, tasty and generous (the onion rings are amazing). Service is always friendly and delivery times are short. Also affordable enough to visit often!

  • 5/5 Tamsyn D. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolutely love vegan munch!! The nuggets are great, as are the onion rings. I usually get Vegan Shawarma with Fries. I love the range of vegan food they have available, it's definitely value for money given the portion sizes and flavour. I also like the ranges of sauces they have, although beware the garlic may is very garlicky! Vegan Munch has been one of the best aspects of living in Selly Oak, couldn't recommend it enough.

  • 5/5 Warchylde L. 3 years ago on Google

    Trendy place with old tomatoes as the photo demonstrate there is definitely something nasty on the tomatoes people are clueless given a half frozen No-chicken burger with cold smelly fries I think that's not gourmet like they say another horrible munch shop taking up space on the street not the place to go
