THE EVENT
🎲 A whole afternoon playing board/card games - as usual, we will have a selection of our favourites, and you're welcome to bring any you want to play. We're always happy to teach rules to newcomers, and the hosts can introduce you to other attendees if you like.

ATTENDING
🤓 Everyone is welcome, no matter their level of “geekiness” - quick & easy games will be on offer as well as more complex ones. Feel free to join us at any time, new games will start as people arrive. (And you can leave at any time as well, although we hope you’ll have fun and want to stay until the end!)

THE FOOD
🍔🍕 Don't miss Kath & Roger's legendary (and huge!) Sunday roast with all the trimmings. (Other options are available on their daily menu; but seriously, that roast 🤤)

THE VENUE
We have the entire of Karamel available for our event, including the theatre at the back if necessary, and they are kindly hosting us for free. Please make sure to show your support by ordering some of their delicious food and drinks.

Karamel is a very short walk from Wood Green Tube station (Piccadilly Line). The entrance to the venue is step-free and there is a wheelchair-accessible toilet. Karamel is dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your furry friends if they'll enjoy it.

Originally founded and run by vegan activists, today it’s operated by Collage Arts (a charity supporting the local community) and managed by the lovely Kath who, together with her charming husband Roger, also prepares the delicious homemade food served there… in very generous portions ;) and not forgetting the fairly affordable prices!
For well over a decade now, Karamel has been at the heart of London’s vegan community, helping it reach its current size - for example:

  • giving a new home to London Vegan Drinks (a London Vegan Meetup event and Europe’s largest vegan social gathering at the time!) when it outgrew its preceding venues
  • providing a welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ vegans (inclusivity and safeguarding having always been a central tenet of theirs) with Fat Gay Vegan's Queer Vegan Disco
  • throwing official or de facto afterparties for many Animal Rights marches and protests

Nowadays, they host not only our sister event, the regular London Vegan Mixer (as they’ve done since its inception in early 2024), but also a lot of other wonderful events for both the local area and the wider London vegan community.
