This is genuinely my go to travel app. I love the community and being able to check pre-vetted restaurants for vegan options when I cannot be bothered to try and look for something in a new place.When travelling with friends and we are looking for a place to eat they always ask me to look at my “vegan app” so that we can easily find an establishment that works for me quickly. I love how veg option restaurants are labelled differently to veggie/vegan restaurants as it also makes it easier to find stuff when im out with my omnivore friends who dont feel adventurous enough to try vegan food and allows me to quickly locate vegan restaurants when im dining solo.I love this app so much, it is the only place where I post reviews. I love being part of the community and able to contribute to vegans finding better food options without stress.
So many vegan food not listed just because the place sells lamb

This is the first time I’ve ever reviewed an app but I just had to because this app could of been amazing had this one rule be removed. I’d like to ask whats the difference in unaliving a chicken compared to lamb? We download this app because we don’t eat meat, and because it’s hard to find veggie and vegan food. But there is so many places that sell good veggie and vegan food that also serve lamb and I can’t see their establishments because of this. There is a small family owned black business that does amazing veggie wraps and I’d love for them to have a place on the app. But because they happen to sell lamb they aren’t allowed to be showed? Which means many vegans and veggies will miss out on their food. I just find this really poorly done. Why do lambs deserve more morals than chickens or pigs ? You let restaurants who sell chicken and pork be on the app but cross the line at lamb? All meat is animal cruelty not just lamb. Change this feature because I know of countless restaurants that does a good meat free option and no one can see them on the app because of this. And I as a vegetarian am missing out on finding options (the whole point of this app) because of this feature too. It just harms plant based people more than it does help them. Try finding a single restaurant that doesn’t sell lamb, that’s why there is a lack of options to eat on this app. Which is a shame since I payed £5 for this app. If you don’t want to promote lamb fair enough, but then don’t promote any places that do meat at all. Then who would buy your app? There would be nowhere to eat!
Great app … but

So this app is brilliant for finding places to eat when you’re visiting somewhere new. However, in an ideal world I would only eat in fully vegan establishments.. in practice this is not generally possible. Historically the app has listings for vegan and non- vegan places but now you can’t add reviews for new non vegan places. This means that the data isn’t current, you could be visiting a place that has no fully vegan places and you are only given previously listed non vegan places… meaning any new non vegan places that have great options and reviews aren’t located.I am super fussy about non vegan places I visit so on a recent holiday with limited fully vegan places to visit I ended up using the app and visiting mediocre non vegan places with average vegan offerings. Then when I did find a non vegan place that wasn’t on the app with a great menu I couldn’t write about it in the app…. This could mean that a business who has made the effort to put together an exciting vegan menu could be overlooked by visiting vegans and end up reducing or removing their vegan menu

Hello Kristin, Nothing has changed regarding our submission process, we still list businesses which are not vegan but have vegan options,.... it's only that the queue is HUGE due to Summer traffic and the wait on new listings to be added which aren't vegan will take much longer. Please let us know if you're being told otherwise somewhere. Email: ios@happycow.net
Lifesaver!!!

Since becoming vegan a year and a half ago this app has literally been a lifesaver for me. I am literally the only vegan I know so I have had no source of information when it comes to places to eat so in the beginning had to do a lot of googling this app takes away any hassle. Then finding out it works abroad ! Just Amazing ! I’ve been on holiday twice and would have massively struggles if not for this app. And I love how you can add any new finds. So easy to use and love the reviews aspect. I can officially say this is my favourite app of all time - thank you!
