Miranda Cafe: Crouch End
Miranda Cafe is a relatively new vegetarian restaurant in Crouch End Broadway (nearest tube stop: Crouch Hill). Most of their menu is vegan and it is all clearly labelled. Staff were friendly and helpful without being overbearing, and the place was fresh and modern looking with plants, mirrors and exposed brickwork which gave it a trendy but elegant feel.

We went for the hot dogs, they were made out of seitan, were totally loaded with toppings and were delicious! The potatoes were rolled in spices and were soft. Both sides were super tasty and healthier than most hot dog accompaniments. I'd have a hard time coming back here and not going for the hot dogs again but I want to return for the breakfasts which also sound incredible.
