In relation to the size of the population, London offers the least number of vegan-friendly restaurants and cafes than all other European cities – despite boasting over 600 establishments – and comes in at number nine when looking at the UK alone.

Leading the way as the UK’s most vegan-friendly city is Manchester, who has recently played host to both Vegan Life Live and the Northern Vegan Festival. Following closely behind is Edinburgh and Leicester - the latter which Holidu puts down to its large Hindi, Sikh and Jain populations - and Bristol which comes in at number four.

Fifth, sixth and seventh places went to Glasgow, Cardiff and Liverpool respectively; with the country’s largest populated cities – Leeds, London and Birmingham – all making the bottom three. 

When looking at Europe, both Amsterdam and Paris triumph at offering a wide range of vegan meals – the French capital even serving three course menus – and Lisbon wasn’t far behind in third place.

The top 10 vegan-friendly European cities are as follows:

• Amsterdam
• Paris
• Lisbon
• Stockholm
• Berlin
• Copenhagen
• Prague
• Vienna
• Oslo
• London
