Hank's Vegan Restaurant

Very lovely evening! The small plates were soo tasty and the loaded fries were huge! Great place to visit and we’ll definitely be back for the Xmas menu! Came from Norwich for the food as it’s all vegan and was totally worth it!

For a small restaurant, the vibe is chilled and you don't feel rushed to order. When we ordered we were re assured about our dietary needs and when the food arrived, all i can say is I wished we lived closer to have it on a regular basis. From the first bite, it was so good but not over filling/ made us feel stuffed like regular real meat kebabs. Had a cheeky soft serve ice cream and wish we had more!! 11/10 will come again and bring our friends

The food is absolutely amazing! Everything was so tasty and 100% vegan. We had tempura brocoli, Cauliflower and mushrooms which had so much flavour. We also got Cauliflower Pakoras with curry mayo which was delicious. We got some bbq wings and OMG they were to die for. We've come from Kent and both agreed that when we next visit clacton, we will be heading back over to Hanks in Ipswich. The staff were really lovely and it felt very comfortable dining there.

Hanks is my go to for a vegan snack, tasty lunchtime milkshake or a slap up fancy meal. The BBQ wings are simply one of the best things I have ever eaten. I get them every time 😋 All the burger meals and kebabs are delicious. My girlfriend is Coeliac and we are so reassured by the new owners every time we go. Some of the best gluten free dishes we have both ever come across. Hanks now has a really great value tasty lunchtime menu. The Caesar salad is my go to. It gives me a serious nostalgic feeling of when I discovered a Caesar Salad as a kid 🤤 I've been to Hanks more than any other Vegan establishment in my 8 years of eating plant based and I think this will be the case for the rest of my time in this part of the world 💗🌍💗 The standard of food and service is always 10/10 🤩👏 I urge you to try the Vanilla Chai milkshake 👌

Went here on a Friday night. The server was lovely and attentive, and fun to talk to. Got her advice on what was worth trying. Great range of classic diner options, all vegan! Would recommend for vegans and omnis, alike. I tried the oreo milkshake, the classic hotdog (with cheese added — it’s underneath) and the bbq wings. It was all great! Generous portions, too. I couldn’t actually finish it all. I just had to try a few things because I’m only in Ipswich for the night. Was sad to see it was only me and another couple dining, at 6pm on a Friday. This place deserves way more customers!

Had the Tofish and chips with mushy peas. It was delicious and obviously made with love and high quality ingredients. The beer batter was perfection! It paired beautifully with the apple and elderflower kombucha. We are lucky to have this little gem in Ipswich and the couple who own the business are lovely to speak to. Tofu is a superfood and linked to longevity so Hanks is a good place to get your weekly dose(s!)

I popped in to Hank's to just have a beer and a snack and will definitely be back! I ordered a pint of local bitter (from the Humber Doucy Brewing Co., which was very good). To this, I decided to add the salt and pepper tofu with sweet chilli dip and also try the beer battered broccoli with blue cheese sauce. Wow! Firstly, I thought that the portion sizes were good, especially for the quality of the food. This is really good stuff, nicely presented. The battered broccoli with blue cheese sauce was very enjoyable, something I'll order again, for sure. Crunchy outer with soft inner. The tofu dish blew me away, to be honest. It was fantastic, from the flavour combinations, to the right amount of spice, juiciness and crispiness. I think if I lived nearby this dish could become a problem! Add to this the very friendly reception and relaxing ambience, made me want to write this review for all to see. Key message - don't let the vegan label get in the way if you are not vegan. This place is doing great job and is serving a really good food offering in a nice setting with very pleasant customer service! They seem to offer lots of regular favourites, really well done, just without the meat!
