Banish any carnivorous cravings for the sake of the environment, and head instead for ETHOS, where your hunger will be satisfied by an entirely meat-free buffet.
ETHOS opened its doors just last month, on Eastcastle Street (basically behind Topshop Oxford Circus!), and invites customers to dine amongst the indoor forest of silver birch trees, sitting at marble tables – this is vegetarian dining at its most contemporary and luxurious.
The feel-good food is abundantly spread, buffet-style, for guests to load their plates (or takeaway boxes), before heading to the counter to weigh and pay.
My lunch plate cost around £7.50 – a little more pricey than your average sandwich, but the deliciously different dishes from around the world are bursting with flavour. Stand-out items were the Courgette Ribbons & Feta, Zucchini Pancake and the house favourite Aloo Scotch Egg (best enjoyed with spiced tomato sauce) – all fabulous!
Dessert is also available; or pop in for a leisurely weekend brunch (£17 for unlimited food, a hot drink and juice).
ETHOS really is doing a great job of opening diners’ eyes to the versatility of vegetables and meat-free cuisine.

Brunch & coffee at @farebarandcanteen w @lindsay .eats.vegan. Excellent coffee, delicious but tiny portions, and a single vegan option ♀️ I want to come back for their cocktails on tap though - huge selection that sounds fab.
Belated post from @perilladining in Stoke Newington, from 10 days ago with @missdomm - ticked all the boxes with its interior, plants and unusual dishes (from Swedish meatballs to juniper creme caramel )

Loved @thepig_hotel near Bath - perfect for a cosy, relaxed, country getaway, complete with open fires and sustainable, seasonal meals from the kitchen garden and local farms.
Waking up late on New Year's Day, but wishing we were waking up here instead: @thepig_hotel near Bath, with its wholesome, homemade, local, seasonal breakfast buffet of dreams ☕
After the madness of Christmas, the blissful quiet, calm and beauty of Babington House was a godsend. Open fires, a good book and a Sunday roast
Last week's lunch at @bourneandhollingsworth Garden Room, atop the Assembly Hotel, celebrating @ellenfitton 's Masters graduation. Such great views from a unique perspective - amidst the rooftops, rather than towering above them.

I really enjoyed this review, iit’s concise and elegant. In my humble opinion, much better than the Time Out’s one.
By the way, Ethos seems to be something different in the overhyped, overrated and overpriced Soho crowd.
Thanks Alessandro – glad to be of service 🙂
Let me know what you think of ETHOS, if you get a chance to visit..
