We were delighted to discover this vegan bar that supports Arsenal. So many vegan places are similar vibes or cuisines, this was something different. The food was delicious, the people were welcoming, and when we stopped by on game day the place was packed and the atmosphere was electric. The “fish” sando was especially good, and we enjoyed the shawarma and Mac and cheese. Looking forward to trying more of the menu options! Updated from previous review on 2026-01-01
Little slow on the particular day we went but we didn't mind. We like slow British or Irish pub style places and it gives that vibe. Great food, yummy curry sauce, pleasantly surprised by hard cider and mulled cider special on a freezing winter day. Bonus that they bartender was rocking a 90s ska playlist that day and we loved the throw back. Seemed like chill people. If we lived in town I bet we'd be regulars. Vegan haven! If you eat meat, you won't miss it.

I got the fried oyster mushroom wrap and it was perfect. Crispy, super filling, and their BBQ sauce is really good. Also tried the French toast which was honestly some of the best I’ve had. The portions are huge so come hungry.
They have a solid beer selection with local craft options which is cool even though I don’t drink. The bartender was friendly and there was an Arsenal match on TV which added to the atmosphere. It’s apparently a big supporters bar for that.
Street parking is annoying but the food makes it worth dealing with. The whole place just feels welcoming and laid back.
If you're an avid vinyl record collector this is the place to be. Last Saturday of each month a few seasons djs gather here. Yale students come thru as well. Friendly atmosphere, great service. Attentive staff. This is a bar that serves vegan fare. I had fries and a glass of pinot. Definitely coming back.

I’ve ordered from here through DoorDash four times—the first three times the food was great, a lil greasy and order notes missed but its a pub they open in the later hours its not anything unexpected .
This time the food was absolutely inedible. I ordered the crispy mushroom wrap with french fries and then had the audacity to add another side of cashew garlic parm fries over the phone. Big mistake both fries that came with the wrap and the ones ordered over the phone were both an oily , soggy mess .
I honestly could not eat it and I’m not someone shy with fried foods. Instant heartburn in the first three bites. The wrap was oily as well but was not bad and for the sake of not completely wasting
$30 bucks I had to salvage it.

I love this winning combination of a pub Premiere League vegan food. Neighborhood atmosphere - nothing feels corporate about this authentic place.
Delicious food and incredible vibe!

Fresh, flavorful vegan dishes! Everything we tried was delicious!
I was so excited to try this place due to the overwhelmingly positive reviews. We ordered takeout here on a random week night. When we arrived we were completely ignored for quite a while and stared at from afar by staff members. It took awhile to get someone's attention to be willing to help us. We were just trying to pickup an online order that was already paid for. When we got home we realized they completely forgot the fries with cheese we ordered (which weren't cheap) but we live too far to bother going back so we just took the loss. The rest of the food wasn't great. The mac n cheese is the worst I've tried from anywhere and was basically inedible, and I'm not picky when it comes to vegan mac n cheese, it's one of those things I always try if it's on a menu. We ended up throwing most of our order out after trying a bite or two, which is something we haven't experienced at any of the other vegan restaurants around.

The Cannon is a cool Arsenal supporter pub that just so happens to be vegan. They have a great selection of beers and vegan pub food I haven't found anywhere in NYC or CT. We had the Shepherds Pie and Bangers and Mash and both were delicious, some of the best I've ever had (including in the UK). One thing to note is that you order at the bar. They have a sign, but I saw a few people sitting around waiting for someone to come take their order. I will definitely be back here, hopefully to watch an Arsenal match and get the full experience.
