Find your next vegan meal in Nottingham
Looking for vegan restaurants in Nottingham? Start with a vegan breakfast at Crocus Café, Indian dishes at Mowgli, a Vietnamese meal at Pho or a vegan tapas selection at Bar Iberico. These four profiles help you plan where to eat vegan in Nottingham, from a Lenton café morning to a city-centre dinner.
This is a vegan-friendly dining guide, not a claim that every kitchen is entirely vegan. Crocus is vegetarian; the other restaurants have mixed menus. Each profile explains how to choose the vegan dishes, with the correct address and separate service information.
Vegan and vegan-friendly restaurants in Nottingham
Choose a food style and meal time before committing to a route. A community café breakfast, a bowl of Vietnamese curry and shared tapas are different experiences. This selection uses published menus and operator information, not personal taste tests or a numerical ranking. Where a downloadable menu could not be fully retrieved, the limitation is stated rather than filled with unverified dishes.
For breakfast and brunch
Crocus Café lists scrambled tofu, vegan toast dishes and a vegan version of its cooked breakfast.
For an individual main
Compare vegan-labelled Indian choices at Mowgli with plant-based Vietnamese options at Pho.
For a sharing meal
Bar Iberico publishes a separate vegan menu. Ask for it before ordering a tapas spread.
Restaurants and cafés in this guide
Editorial selection · not a rankingCrocus Café
Lenton Boulevard · Nottingham
A cooked breakfast with an explicitly vegan version.
Crocus's displayed breakfast menu includes scrambled tofu on toast and mushrooms in cashew cream. The Crocus Breakfast can be ordered in a vegan version rather than with the fried egg. Other menu items contain eggs or dairy, so this remains a vegetarian café with vegan choices, not a fully vegan venue.
Before you order On this menu V means vegan, while V option requires a change. Ask about the complete plate and your drink. Evening menus are separate, with changing dishes and service cutoffs to confirm.

Mowgli — Nottingham
Stoney Street · Lace Market
Choose the right dal and the right accompaniments.
Mowgli's Nottingham menu marks Temple Dahl, Tea Steeped Chickpeas and Picnic Potato Curry vegan. They give you a starting point for an Indian meal with suitable rice or bread. By contrast, Black Dahl contains butter and cream, and some vegetarian street plates need a vegan adaptation.
Before you book Specify the vegan version where offered. The operator says this branch is not fully accessible and has no accessible facilities. It also advises guests with severe allergies to speak with a manager and not rely on the menu alone.

Pho — Nottingham
Carlton Street · Nottingham
Check the whole preparation, including sauces and broth.
Pho's published menu includes tofu-and-mushroom curry and dishes using vegan THIS isn't chicken. Nottingham's Carlton Street restaurant is a mixed-menu venue, so ask for the fully vegan preparation rather than assuming a plant-based protein settles every ingredient. It offers another food style when you do not want a café breakfast or a shared tapas meal.
Before you order Confirm sauces, broth, garnishes and optional egg additions with staff. The interactive menu was not fully exposed during this check; use the live menu and local team for today's complete vegan selection.

Bar Iberico
Carlton Street · Nottingham
Ask for the vegan menu before sharing plates.
Bar Iberico's official menu page provides a separate vegan selection alongside the main restaurant menu. It is the tapas option in this guide: agree on the vegan plates with your group rather than picking only from the conventional menu. This is Bar Iberico on Carlton Street, not the separately named Iberico World Tapas.
Before you visit The current vegan PDF could not be fully retrieved, so specific seasonal dishes are not promised. Small parties use walk-ins; bookings for six or more are accepted only in the stated time windows. Sunday is closed on the current operator page.

Vegan breakfast and brunch in Nottingham
Start with the café menu
Crocus is the breakfast lead in this selection. Choose a dish explicitly marked vegan or request the vegan cooked breakfast. Plan around its opening days and ask which daytime dishes remain available before an evening-menu change.
Do not confuse an early lunch with breakfast
The other profiles begin service later and are included for lunch or dinner. An 11:30am opening does not by itself establish a cooked-breakfast menu. Keep your morning plan separate from a restaurant reservation.
Plan your Nottingham vegan dining
Keep Lenton and the centre distinct
Crocus has a Lenton Boulevard address, while the other profiles are on Stoney Street and Carlton Street. Use the individual map and leave time to travel rather than treating them as adjacent stops.
Read each menu's own labels
The same letter can mean different things on different menus. Check the key and distinguish vegan as served from vegan available on request, particularly for breads, yoghurt and shared sides.
Check access and booking format
Accessibility and reservation policies differ across these venues. Confirm your requirements with the actual branch, and keep extra time available for a walk-in table.
Use live menus for the final choice
Check current dishes, prices, kitchen hours and availability before a special journey. Allergy requirements need their own conversation, even when a meal is vegan.

Nottingham vegan dining FAQ
Are these four fully vegan restaurants?
No. Crocus is vegetarian and the other restaurants serve mixed menus. This guide identifies vegan choices, adaptations and relevant service information.
Where can I start for a vegan cooked breakfast?
Crocus publishes a vegan version of its cooked breakfast and several vegan toast dishes. Specify the version you need when ordering.
Are all lentil dishes at Mowgli vegan?
No. The checked menu distinguishes vegan Temple Dahl from Black Dahl containing butter and cream. Read the actual ingredients and symbols rather than relying on the main ingredient.
Does Bar Iberico accept small-party reservations?
Its current policy is walk-in dining for small groups, with bookings for six or more in specified windows. Check directly for your party and date.
Why might the Google photos not appear immediately?
Google Maps consent is required before the external photos and mini-maps load. The ordinary restaurant text and links remain available without it. Photo availability is controlled by Google, and food pictured is not necessarily vegan.
Research notes
Researched 27 September 2026. Operator pages and published menus were prioritised. Bar Iberico's vegan PDF and Pho's full interactive menu were not completely retrievable, and the profiles identify those limits. This is desk research, not personal restaurant testing or independent kitchen inspection. Confirm current menus, access, opening times and reservations directly.
