Luckily, London is getting its very own permanent vegan ‘butchery’. The idea is not an entirely new one but this is the first time a vegan meats store will be opening on a permanent basis.

Rudy’s Vegan Butcher is set to open on the 1st of November in Islington, right in time for World Vegan Day.

Ahead of their debut, the eatery has created CGI images of their store which looks exactly like your regular butchers, but the meat is entirely plant-based!

The butchery will sell delicious vegan delights such as homemade pastrami, dirty burger patties, cheeze sauce & chilli-non-carne as well as rack of jack, lobstah salad, meatballs, barbecue shredded pulled porc and chick’n lover pate.

Last year the dutch brand The Vegetarian Butcher, backed by Unilever, opened a pop-up shop in east London. While the pop-up was a huge success, founder Jaap Korteweg had another vegetarian butcher in the Netherlands to return to.
