Mildreds Kings Cross — Restaurant in London

✓ All Vegetarian with Vegan Options

WHAT I HAD: Mock Chicken and Waffles with Mushroom Bourbon Gravy; Ginger Pink Juice of grapefruit, pear, apple and ginger Mildreds – a well-known Vegetarian/Vegan establishment that has a few branches in London. Their menu isn’t extensive, they offer starters, sides, burgers, curries, noodles, rice, desserts etc. inspired by various cuisines (Korean, Middle-Eastern etc.).

One thing caught my eye months ago was the Mock Chicken and Waffles with Mushroom Bourbon Gravy. So, my first visit ever to a Mildreds, I had that for brunch. It was satisfying but didn’t quite hit the sweet spot for me. The mock chicken was juicy and crunchy from the breading, but the waffles was a let-down – it tasted good but I didn’t care for the texture, it was quite soggy and the edges weren’t crisps as a waffle should be. The Mushroom Bourbon Gravy though, WOW. It has nice depth of flavour – sweet, earthy and slightly bitter and smoky. I wish I could have a bowl to drink it! I liked how they didn’t puree the mushrooms and left it a bit chunky. Overall, the Mock Chicken and waffles were pretty could but left a lot to be desired. I did think the portion could be bigger (or they could’ve added some other sides/toppings?) for the price as it definitely wasn’t enough for me.

I liked the bright décor and spacious seating here. It had a fun, casual and clean vibe. Although it’s near Kings Cross, it’s not at a terribly busy area, and was relatively quiet (or could be because I was there in the morning on a weekend). The staff were really friendly and helpful too, checking in with me to make sure I had a good dining experience. With many other Vegetarian and Vegan places in London, I think Mildreds is probably a safe and comfortable place for many. I only had one dish there so I can’t really make a fair assessment in comparison to other Veg/Vegan places. From my visit and view of the menu, I do think they probably could step their game up. Also, I’ve passed their Soho branch a few times before and there was always a queue! So yeah, I probably need to give Mildreds another...

After visiting Mildreds Kings Cross previously, we decided to return for our group booking of 20 people following our ceremony at Camden Town Hall, just a short walk down the road. It was again the most delicious meal, all our guests thoroughly enjoyed the Vegan menu, it was served really well by the service staff, the food was perfect, fresh, tasty and hot. Mildreds now have some more fans (even the carnivores that attended our day). Danila and her staff were very attentive attending to us with drinks and our meal courses. Just delicious, the flavours, ingredients, consistency and friendly staff is what sets Mildreds above other restaurants. Love it and will be back very soon!! Thank you so much Danila and to all your staff & see you soon. Highly recommend just about everything on their menu :) XX

My previous review before the booking for our group of 20: Booked dinner at Mildreds Kings Cross yesterday & feel compelled to give this review. We had a choice of eating inside the atmosphere was great but we chose the terrace as the weather was so nice. The vegan menu was vast & interesting. We had the tortellini & heirloom tomatoe & melon salad starters which were fresh & delicious, the ch'kin kebabs & korean kimchi ch'kin was amazing with such lovely flavours, great portion sizes, presentation was fantastic & great attentive service, the service staff were efficient, friendly, welcoming & asking for any allergens. The deserts were so delicious passion fruit cheesecake with tasty crumbs, with black sesame tuille, edible flowers so photo worthy, the Cherry Spritz cocktails were stunning, they totally hit the spot, just the nicest spritz cocktail on a warm evening with decorative edible flowers, definitely be back & will try their other branches. Antonio the manager was so lovely & attentive & his team were great too....

Decided to try Mildreds as suggested by a friend who is a vegan despite having my reservations about it, I decided let’s see what the hype is!

I was greeted by Antonio who was absolute charming and very accommodating to me, he accompanied me to a window table where I waited for my friend (who’s birthday it was)!

I ordered a drink a mocktail and it was absolutely refreshing and lovely to drink! We ordered starters, main and dessert! I made super sure I had room for desserts of course 🤣🤣🤣.

We choose the spinach gyozas, hummus and olives for starters. Our mains was the chicken kebabs with rice and a side of sweet potato fries and a side of coconut salad 🥗which I must say was delicious and tasted sooooo good!

Trying to find the appropriate words to describe the food @ Mildred’s….it was absolutely sensational! As an occasional meat eater I was totally surprised at the alternatives to meat/fish options. Mildreds IS a MUST to try and allow your tastebuds to go on a vegan extravaganza journey!

Our food was SOOOO good that we will back next week! Couldn’t finish the chocolate cake however I’m certain it WILL all go down when I next have it 🤣🤣🤣.

We was delivered fantastic service by the staff, food came in good time enough to get our stomach prepared for what was about too come! I’ll definitely put Mildred’s up there with along some of my favourite restaurants to go too.

Thank you for making my friend’s birthday special with the candle in the cake 💯💯.

Now you read my review along with several others, go and book that table and try Mildred’s for...
