So rare to find a restaurant where the vegan main isn't an afterthought. The roast celeriac was the best thing on our table, and my steak-eating friends agreed.

The flatbread alone is worth the trip. We've been coming to Salt & Ember every month for a year and it's never been anything less than brilliant. Warm, unfussy and the food is outstanding.
