A stunning blow to the pride of the once-great metropolis.

^ A good example of the proudful ignorance that vegan businesses are up against. Well done, London!

This returning title is a testament to the city’s thriving plant-based scene and culture, with London boasting 154 fully vegan restaurants, over 285 vegan businesses of various types (including cafes, bakeries, shops, B&Bs, caterers, and so on), and 3,620 total vegan-friendly listings.

The consistent investment in vegan businesses and an unbeatable sense of community have kept us ahead of other top contenders, including Berlin (which came in second), and Los Angeles (third).

For comparison, Berlin boasts a little over 100 fully vegan restaurants and LA has 50, making London’s 154 options look copious and bountiful.

I’m assuming that’s a funny sarcastic take, given the sub we’re on.

Maybe, but we do get brigaded often and their username doesn’t suggest a dry sense of humor to me. Also, ime good-faith commenters would typically respond “I meant /s” whereas trolls are often silent or escalatory

I’m not surprised, British cooking is an on going effort to make meat as disgusting to eat as it is to produce.

I’d have gone meatless a decade earlier if that was my only option.
