Was Harry Saunders at The Anchor a mag?
This bar and restaurant offers a good selection of tasty vegan food and drinks. It is one of the top choices for vegan dining in Newcastle. While the menu only listed a few vegan options, the server informed us that there were more available, such as a chickpea burger, BBQ jackfruit burger, vegan fish and chips, and falafel salad.

This restaurant is dog-friendly and has plenty of options for vegetarians and vegans. The staff always greets you warmly and the food is excellent. What's not to love!

The vegan menu at this restaurant is amazing! Both the banana blossom "fish" and chips and the cauliflower wings were perfect 10s. There are so many other appetizing options on the menu that we can't wait to come back and try them all. It's the ideal spot to refuel after a hike up Slieve Donard. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Thank you for a great experience!

Great vegan options, quite rare for Newcastle. Will be back with friends and foes alike.
