You might think that only the healthiest, hippiest restaurants will be a safe bet for a green meal, but you would be very wrong.

One of our favourite restaurants for easy vegan options is Nandos. Yup, you heard us right, chicken-loving Nandos!

(If you feel like you would rather avoid the place altogether because of the focus on eating a LOT of poultry, then please do scroll down)

Surprisingly, Nando’s pick-and-choose style menu, along with the restaurants openness to adapting orders to suit the customer, makes ordering a big vegan meal pretty simple!

We like to go and get the huge Mediterranean salad (with no feta, for a vegan option) and add half an avocado and almonds to replace the chicken.

Super hungry? Then you can choose any of the olives, hummus, red pepper dip, flatbread, sweet potato wedges, ratatouille or pinto beans on the side, with a big mango juice, ice lolly or sorbet to finish.

Other restaurants that are shockingly vegan friendly include Las Iguanas, who have separate vegetarian and vegan menus available, The Real Greek and trusty old Wagamamas.

If you know what to look for,  you’ll always be able to find a restaurant that serves both you and your carnivore crew
