    Tried this place on a recommendation on a Sunday afternoon. Weather was nice, so we ordered a lemonade, railway chai and a hot chocolate while we waited outside, they have some benches to sit on. We ordered the BBQ Boi, a Zinger burger and loaded fries, neither of us are vegans, but we wanted to try it out. All the food was tasty from the buns to the sauces. The chips were the best tho, fresh potato with skin on, really really tasty πŸ˜‹ They do sell cakes, but we didn't try any today, but they did look good. Parking might be an issue, as its a busy student street, but I found a few spots further down Brudenell Road. Prices are normal for this area and the staff are really friendly. In the future, I'll pop back in, hopefully when the restrictions have been lifted so we can sit outside. Vegan or not, this place is highly recommended.

    Really tasty vegan food. Good, fresh ingredients, cooked well. Feels like real food, not weird hippy food! The service was great; nice, friendly staff who move quickly but aren't pushy.

    Been wanting to try this place for a while and I wasnt disappointed. All the food is vegan, we ordered a pizza, a couple of burgers and some dirty fries and is was all really good. Price is about average for food like this and the portion sizes are good. I will definitely be going back.

    Ordered through Just Eat, food came on time and the delivery man was really friendly! Had a Sloppy Joe burger and Chilli Cheese Fries that were still hot and fresh! One of the best vegan burgers I've had, really different and unique to others around Leeds! Quite a filling portion size as well! Will definitely eat from here again!

    Great little vegan cafe and takeaway, with lovely staff, just a couple of minutes walk from the Hyde Park Picture House and Brudenell Social Club. Had the burger with cheesy chips and some jackfruit bites to share. Really large portions and everything was delicious. Heartily recommended, can't wait to return and try more from the menu.

    I only ordered a matcha, spiced chai, and the Korean wings. The wings could have used more sauce, and they felt really heavy and greasy. The matcha tasted poor quality, but the chai was really good.

    As a meat eater, I went here with a vegan friend as a first ever visit for us both and it will not be the last. I had a cauli wing BBQ burger and if faced with this or a meat burger, I would chose the flavoursome cauli burger anytime. My friend had a spicy sausage pizza which blew our brains out but we ate it all. Also tried a butterfly pea latte made with oat milk....and then had another, so it's safe to say we liked them. This was junk vegan/veggie food, all freshly made to order and I would quite happily reduce my meat intake for food like this! The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. Maybe they should offer cookery classes for the ever growing interest in this type of food - if they do...count me in! Give it a go, you will be pleasantly surprised!

    We tried Punk Vegan for the first time this evening and I was really impressed! I had the Classic Cheeze with fries, and a Unicorn Brownie. The burger was really juicy! The fries were super tasty and the brownie divine... And all for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended. :)

    Great vegan cafe near Leeds university. Had the fried cauliflower and latte, both were great

  • 3/5 Mohammed S. 2 years ago on Google β€’ 28 reviews
    The food is really good especially the zinger burger but the other items we ordered such as the Chuna Melt and the Bex Mex burger all have too much salt in them. It ruins the taste of the food which is really nice. The salt is very overpowering, it is similar to sea salt. Brilliant food just need to put a lot less salt in it.

  • 5/5 Lynne 4 years ago on Google β€’ 11 reviews
    Fantastic reasonably priced food, really nice friendly staff and fast service. We always come here when dropping off our son at the university. This time I had the best cappuccino I've ever had and I tried the chickpea "tuna" salad today and it did not disappoint. We were also offered the chance to taste test a new batch of freshly made houmous, again the best I've ever had! This place deserves every success, they have exactly the right attitude to run an ethical, compassionate business.

    Came here with a party from Leeds uni. Everyone agreed that the food was amazing -- the jackfruit bites were phenomenal! Really lovely service and atmosphere too. It was money well spent.

  • 5/5 Nick N. 2 years ago on Google
    Whether you're vegan, veggie or meat-eater, this is a great place to treat yourself to some proper food! Burgers, pizza, loaded fries and desserts all delicious, great portion sizes too. You'll love it!

  • 5/5 Helen A. 2 years ago on Google
    Just eaten here this afternoon.. I am not vegan but my 2 companions were. We all loved it! The food was spot on and the lady who served was really great too. As avid donner summer fans, punk was definitely up there..

  • 5/5 Magdalena O. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything was absolutely amazing! The best vegan burgers and we also had a really aromatic turmeric latte ❀️ 10/10 - oh and we also grabbed the cakes on our way out, the cheezecake was delish, tangy and had a really pleasant texture. Thank you for such a great experience, lovely service and please, please continue the amazing work you do!!! 🌿🌿🌿

    Lovely food and customer service, I ordered through uber eats and the driver had some problems with his car which has made the delivery late so a member of the staff phoned me up and said he is going to prepare new food for me and organise the delivery by himself, shortly after that I got my food and It was soo good (got the seitan burger and chips with extras), I will definitely order again ❀️

  • 5/5 Paul G. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Becca A. 3 years ago on Google
    Really really loved our meal here. Would definitely go again - the s+p chicken burger is delicious πŸ™πŸ»

  • 2/5 Tilly P. 3 years ago on Google
    I think I must have been unlucky as I see everyone else giving great reviews. When I ordered for delivery the chips were very under cooked and waxy. The cheese sauce wasn't very cheesy either. I can make my own at home with nutritional yeast and vegan bechamel and that tastes better so it was a bit disappointing. The mushroom grilled cheese was gorgeous though.

  • 4/5 John Robert Su n. 3 years ago on Google
    Good food. Bit expensive but most is homemade. So understandable

  • 5/5 Natalie V. 3 years ago on Google
    Delicious burgers!

  • 5/5 angela l. 3 years ago on Google

    Was on a business trip to Leeds and found Punk surfing around trying to find some where decent to eat. So glad I found them. Chilled vibe, excellent food and service.

  • 5/5 Holmes f. 4 years ago on Google
    Lovely food. Lovely service. Lovely place

  • 5/5 kateyesss00 3 years ago on Google
    Literally the best vegan food I have ever tasted. The cauliflower wings genuinely tasted like chicken, and the burgers where divine. Everyone should go there.

  • 5/5 Rev R. 3 years ago on Google
    Came here recently on a date. The fellow with short hair was very polite and patient, and they asked us to come in in pairs so as to follow social distancing rules. Nice one punk.

  • 1/5 Megan K. 3 years ago on Google
    I’ve tried ordering food 3 times now via Just Eat at various times and days when the app says the delivery and food are available. Each time, my order has been declined. I won’t be trying again

  • 5/5 Joanna K. 4 years ago on Google
    Very tasty, good selection on the menu. Interesting music, quality coffee. Worth recommending to vegan friends.

  • 2/5 Kamlesh P. 4 years ago on Google
    Food was nice but the cashier ripped me of because he couldn't add up and I hope karma comes to him!

  • 5/5 Natalia M. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and service!!

  • 5/5 Sam G. 4 years ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible food. As a recent turned veggie that still enjoys meat but doesn't eat it, this was fantastic! You don't miss the meat at all, and it's quality filling food at a good price. You don't leave feeling dissatisfied in the slightest and It's ran by a couple with fantastic ethics and a vision which they clearly work very hard to fulfil. Will definitely return and would heavily recommend the journey to anyone else whether meat eater or not. For reference, I had the cauli wrap and shared some nachos which were equally fantastic. Good coffee too.

  • 1/5 JORAWAR S. 4 years ago on Google
    The first time I went here it was quite nice. But today the male worker with very short hair was very rude to us and the burger was a warbutons bun. Got charged Β£2.50 for a can. The meal barely tickled my belly button.

  • 5/5 Liam O. 4 years ago on Google
    Pizzas ans chips (frazzle chips) are amazing!

  • 5/5 Ruaridh W. 3 years ago on Google
    Delicious, vegan, food. The Mexican burger was delicious, especially the bread, and the sweet chilli 'chicken' wrap was better than most wraps elsewhere. The 'chicken' actually tasted better than chicken. Perfect for a night when you can't be bothered cooking πŸ‘
