Döner Haus - Manchester

They make a vegan crushing of their swarm, thunder and carving. The Flatbread has these fantastic cripples, and they do 2-4-1 cocktails all day, I think. Well furnished, service staff nice. Own the central bar in the corn exchange, which is a great place to sit and have a drink.

There is two or so vegan options, a few more veggie stuff. But honestly it was okay, kinda boring and not enough for the price.

Doner Haus has several vegan options on the menu, as well as various side dishes to choose from, all clearly labelled, although no vegan dessert. Other dishes can be tweaked too, so make sure you ask. I had a pint of Kostritzer Kellerbier, an unfiltered naturally cloudy beer, which was full flavoured and totally delicious. We started with falafel and houmous, which turned out to be a fabulous dish and perfect for sharing. The falafel were fantastic as the chickpeas were not blitzed into a smooth paste, so had loads of texture and with a big dollop of delicious houmous and tabbouleh salad, was quickly demolished leaving a clean plate. Main courses were vegan Schnitzel with fries and a pot of hot sauce for hubby and a veganwurst for me. The two dishes were excellent, the Schnitzel was massive, with loads of fresh salad and the hot sauce was very spicy apparently, hubby loved it. The veganwurst itself made from wheat protein was amazing, with a full on smoky flavour and great texture, with fresh salad, a tasty slaw and loads of chips I loved it too. I had a chat with owners Saj and Laura and I suggested they could perhaps label which drinks are vegan friendly, making it so much easier for vegans, instead of us having to do a Google or Barnivore search. Saj said this was definitely something for them to look at, as well as offering a vegan menu with accompanying drinks, which is a great idea, perhaps a vegan dessert will be included. I was a little apprehensive before our visit, as Doner Haus is not my usual kind of dining venue or food, but I was completely won over. Highly recommended.

We started with falafel and hummus, a fantastic dish that's perfect for sharing. The falafels were amazing, with the chickpeas not blended into a smooth paste, allowing for delightful textures. The accompanying tabbouleh salad was fresh and vibrant, and we quickly polished off the plate. For our main courses, I had the vegan kebab with fries and a side of hot sauce, while my dining companion enjoyed a vegan sausage. Both dishes were excellent; the kebab was generously portioned and came with a fresh salad, while the hot sauce was pleasantly sharp and slightly sweet. The vegan sausage made with pea protein was incredible, boasting a robust smoky flavor and a substantial texture, also paired with fresh salad and tasty chips that I loved. I had a conversation with the owners, Saj and Laura, and suggested that they consider labeling which drinks are vegan-friendly for easier navigation, rather than relying on Google or Barnivore searches. Saj mentioned that this is definitely something they’ll consider, along with the idea of introducing a vegan drinks menu and possibly including a vegan dessert in the future. I was a bit hesitant before our visit, as Doner House isn’t typically my go-to type of dining, but I was thoroughly impressed. I highly recommend it!

There are three vegan main course options and, if I remember correctly, three desserts as well (though unfortunately, we didn't have room for dessert). The food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly.
