This was for a graduation dinner (Congrats !), with Hitchcock’s having a lot of hype surrounding it as it is an exclusive veggie/vegan restaurant in this elusive part of the country. Having performed extensive research on this establishment, and the varying menu varieties on the website, we did not expect to be surprised by our meal out here...as there are numerous pleasant and fewer not so pleasant reviews, a dining experience to polarise. As a concept we are there with them, however you can’t expect to run with a different menu each night and maintain quality in each dish. Our night was Thai night, with some of the dishes hitting the spot, for example the pad thai and the cucumber salad, as well as the corn ball fritters, but some others were in a bath of oil, which seeped into everything else on the plate. We think that the desserts weren’t really necessary or fit any aspect of the cultural menu, and could save the venue some space and money, and most diners are probably full anyway. That being said, LOTS of vegan options. Food aside, the staff were lovely and there is a cheap corkage. The venue itself is a bit dark, the decor is quirky and daft. Hopefully there isn’t too much food waste after the night ends as it is a buffet !

Italian vegetarian night, eat as much as you like. A selection of wines. Ring the door bell on the right and someone will collect you from the first floor. A much larger restaurant than you would imagine. Good for large groups with vegan options. Recommend to book as it opens from 20:00 pm. My photo 6/10 of the barman wiping the glass has hit over 1,000,000 views today 16/08/20 took while on holiday in Hull January 2020 after the Russian Ballet.

Second time at this amazing vegetarian restaurant. Always amazing food here and wonderfully welcoming staff. Very unique restaurant as the first person to book gets to choose the food style, it was Italian on this night. So many different dishes to choose from and the cakes are incredible. Highly recommended

An incredible experience!! The atypical place, the welcome of the whole team and of course the quality of the dishes, everything is delicious!! a treat! You can go there with your eyes closed

An amazing experience. Great food (we had a traditional christmas roast) and lovely staff/owners. The inside has a warm and fun atmosphere and overall one of the best vegetarian places we've been.

Quirky, rustic restaurant with delicious all you can eat vegetarian and vegan food. Run by a husband and wife team who are friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

I'd say this is my favourite restaurant even though I am a big meat eater. It's authentic, cozy, personal and food is great!

Favourite restaurant in Hull Wonderful in every way! Been going for 15 years and never had a bad meal. They also did the most awesome deliveries during lockdown. Look forward to returning to the restaurant when covid dies down. Fantastic staff, delicious food and cool atmosphere!

Totally querky hidden place at the back of Hulls old town. Really tasty food I loved it and great to have a selection. The place itself wasn't what I expected at all. It's very oldy worldy. But it adds to the character.

What can I say? My favourite restaurant in Hull. Over the years Jane and her team have catered for many of my birthday celebrations looking after 20+ guests. The food is always amazing and, as a non-veggie, I have no idea how they make vegetarian food taste so good. Its a wonderful 'eat as much as you like' buffet, with fabulous desserts. If you book earlier enough, you also get to chose the evening's 'food theme.' The team were all being 'covid-safe' which was also reassuring. A firm favourite and wholeheartedly recommended.

Great to find a truly vegetarian restaurant. Although the evenings are themed, there is a great choice of all that you want to eat main and dessert. It's a quirky restaurant with unusual decoration. We had a thoroughly great evening of Italian food, and went home stuffed. We'll be back to try a different theme next time, even though it's a 45 minute drive from where I live. Addition 19/08/2022: First time back after the lockdowns and it was Lebanese tonight. I was a bit anxious as I'd never it before, I needn't have been as it was very tasty. It was a very nice atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble. Looking forward to our next visit.

Lovely hearty food with great selection from buffet. Theme tonight was Italian and Mediterranean. The interior was very interesting and unique! Highly recommend!

As a non-vegetarian with a lot of allergies I was initially skeptical about dining here but the Owner and Head Chef on tonight's Vietnamese night exceeded all expectations! Felt well looked after and every dish prepared for me was delicious (so much so I had to take some away because I was so full!) Highly highly recommend.

Outstanding restaurant, never disappoints, their food and customer service is outstanding each time we go. The atmosphere is also out of this world, dim lighting, quirky decorations in an old 1700s building. We had the greek night most recently which was outstanding, whilst everything is vegetarian 90% is vegan which is amazing.

Excellent food and relaxed atmosphere. It was Italian night when I went, and it was the first time I had been in around 30 years. The main thing I noticed was how the quality of the food has improved. Whilst now vegan and vegetarian , it is a step up from the cheap student fare I remember. I enjoyed both vegan and vegetarian options despite normally making a meat option my normal choice. Service was attentive without the pressure to move on through the courses. I will definitely be visiting Hitchcock's much sooner than than my previous 30 year hiatus, next time I am in Hull.

A vegetarian restaurant in an old quirky building with low level lighting and candles on every table. There's different levels of flooring separated by steps and the help yourself buffet style hot food is flavoursome, fresh and varied. Situated in the old part of town, you're transported back in time before you arrive at the door. A gem of find within the city of Hull.

Pretty much the best vegan/vegetarian restaurant one can visit. I’ve had multiple celebratory meals here and feel so lucky to live locally- it’s so good that I’d be willing to travel a good distance for it. Usually all but maybe one or two things at the buffet are vegan (this is always clearly delineated by staff) and the selection of desserts is otherworldly. Such a unique experience, delicious food, great concept & it’s even bring your own booze! Don’t know how it could get much better. This is pretty much the pinnacle of vegan dining in my opinion. Go.

We went last night (27/4/23)as a group from Holderness Grange Hedon ...it was our first time and was excellent... My partner is gluten free and he was catered for so well and all his food was brought to him and he came home with a doggy bag as there was so much for him... We will definitely be returning especially at Christmas when my son is visiting over the Christmas week... He is a vegetarian and it will be wonderful to take him to a restaurant with so much choice... Especially the puddings... Thankyou so much for a fantastic evening ... The staff cannot do enough for you,. We can't wait to return🙂 Nella and Terry x

I am a committed carnivore I love eating meat, steak, Bacon sausages, black pudding anything. I went to the restaurant with a group of friends to celebrate a vegetarian friend's birthday who wished to dine here. It was absolutely fantastic I loved the food there was so much choice from the buffet. The food was wonderful and I did not miss not having any meat. Sometime steak and chips can be a bit boring. But the food here, the flavours the textures the sheer variety most of it i had never ever had before. It was absolutely brilliant. It was a nice place to eat lovely atmosphere. I would definitely go again.

Really good food and lovely hosts. Great value and with a wide variety of tasty dishes. Hasn't changed in years reflecting how unique it is. Highly recommended whether vegetarian or not.

Eaten and enjoyed food here lots of times and always 100% satisfied. Celebrated my husbands 60th birthday at a different venue but had the Hitchcocks crew do our catering. Oh my they didn't disappoint, the theme was Jamaican and it was outstanding. Everything was eaten , we had a all Vegan menu and ourselves and our guests gave it a 10/10. Thank you Hitchcocks you were amazing ❤️

Highly recommend this lovely restaurant! Our friends booked it an if I’m honest I probably wouldn’t have chosen it… I was so impressed the food was lovely, staff couldn’t have been more friendly and great value for money. Go hungry!

Best restaurant and meal we’ve ever had! Brilliant concept for a restaurant (all you can eat buffet and whoever books first chooses theme) - chef incredibly talented to be able to cater this. We went for our valentines meal and it was Italian theme. All the food was incredible and so much choice for mains and dessert on buffet. I am Vegan and the options were great- anything that wasn’t vegan the chef even made me vegan portions of these especially for me!! ☺️ Couldn’t recommend more- amazing value for money.

So different from other restaurants. Exceptional good value. Our fare was Tex-Mex. Great choice of mains and fabulous desserts. I was too greedy to leave room for the coffee.

Best place to eat in Hull, lovely owners and amazing selection of vegan and vegetarian food. always great music playing too. Big up

Fabulous flavours, would certainly go back but sorry not enough to persuade me to give up meat for ever.

Hitchcocks needs no introduction or explanation really as it’s reputation is quite well known, but I’m blown away every time we come. Before we first came we were apprehensive in case there weren’t many vegan options and everything would end up not suitable for us, but there’s rarely a single item that doesn’t have a vegan option (which is understandable as sometimes vegan alternatives can taste quite different - cheese), and most things end up being vegan anyway. Recently we visited and asked about the Yorkshire puddings and a plate of vegan ones was brought to us specially, there’s really no request that’s too much. The food has always been amazing and that houmous is something else! We’ve brought sceptical non-veggies in the past also and they’ve loved the food too. The staff are friendly and we always leave incredibly full, and hope to continue visiting for years to come!

Probably my favourite place to eat in the city, excellent food, all you can eat (First person to book gets to pick the theme). Largely Vegan (Which has increased year on year, 100% Veggie and friendly staff. You will leave so full you feel like exploding so definitely get your moneys worth.

Always great food, great service and friendly staff!! So happy this place is open to dine in again!

The best tasting meal out I have had in quite a while, exceptionally friendly staff, lavish amounts of dishes across the table and a wide selection of cakes and deserts to top it off (if you left room). An excellent place to eat out and an excellent price for what you get. Everything is nice.

We enjoyed yet another wonderful Mexican takeaway last night, and it was absolutely delicious! Every bite was mouth wateringly tasty and I feel such a pig after scoffing two large plates full - but I still managed the deserts 😉 Thanks guys - really looking forward to our next takeaway from you

Oh my, what a fantastic meal and experience this was😊 I really don't want to give a great review otherwise I might not get in again BUT our visit was superb from beginning to end. Very safe for nervous diners, the service was first class, one of our party needed gluten free and nothing was too much bother. The food though...the range, the selection, the quality just couldn't be faulted, seriously not one fault apart from we ate too much, then ate some more...then a little bit more😂 Five stars isn't enough, I'd happily give ten stars.

WOW where do I start, it was our first visit to Hitchcock’s and it wasn’t a disappointment. When we booked we were asked if there was anything we didn’t ear or was allergic to, my husband told them I didn’t like peppers. Well to my surprise when we arrived and was seated at our table the chef came across to discuss my dislike to peppers. He then proceeded to tell me he had prepared some of the courses without peppers, he then brought them to our table. All the staff were wonderful and very helpful when we asked about the restaurant and its heritage, as it is a very old building dating back to the 17/18th century. We’ve booked to come again in March to try the Middle Eastern menu so we’ll see you again soon
