National Vegetarian Week 2018: Where to eat & drink in Wales

Restaurants across Wales will open their doors to meat-free diners this week (14-20 May) for National Vegetarian Week 2018.

As well as a good way to highlight the benefits of a meat-free diet, it’s a great opportunity to experience the pleasures of vegetarian food and perhaps for some of us, try something new.

There are plenty of fantastic restaurants in Wales showing us vegetarian food can be vibrant and exciting to eat. Vegetarian is simply not just the ‘option’ on the menu with this lot.

We have handpicked a selection of the best restaurants and cafes in Wales offering a whole range of vegetarian dishes for you to try…

1. The Kitchen Table, Mumbles
