Happy September to all my readers! I am so excited to have been asked to be an ambassador for my favourite online wellbeing magazine, Hip & Healthy and I hope I do them proud!! Their gorgeous editor, Sadie Macleod has kindly offered to share with us their top 5 healthy havens in London:
After pounding the pavements of the Kings
Road. Find refuge at The Good Life Eatery, located on Sloane Avenue. They have
a wide variety of cold fresh pressed juices as well as healthy snacks and a
delicious menu to choice from. Plus their Ronaccino (not always on the menu) is
to die fore – A nut mylk frappacino perfect for perking you up in this hot
weather. 59 Sloane Avenue, SW33DH. www.goodlifeeatery.com
Super chic and deliciously vegan, Raw is a
T-Total restaurant set in up-market hotel La Suite West. What it lacks in
alcohol it more than makes up for in superfood smoothies. Enjoy an energizing
and immune-boosting drink on their outdoor terrace before moving inside for
some seriously gourmet vegan fare – most of which is raw (obvi). Deliciously
Ella is a fan! 41-51 Inverness Terrace, London, W2 3JN. www.lasuitewest.com/raw-vegan-restaurant-london
This amazing café, located in Kingly Court
in Soho, is the perfect place to meet a friend for a juice and a catch up. It
is situated next door to TriYoga, so you could attend a class and then head to
the café to relax and refuel in a natural, healthy way. Plus they have a Hip
& Healthy Smoothie on offer! Be sure to give it a try and get our cleanse guide half price!

Set in one of our most coveted chic
department stores, Harvey Nichols, the Detox Kitchen offers an array of
delicious juices and healthy, dairy-free veggie food. We have a particular soft
spot for their vegan, sugar-free brownies, which are best enjoyed with a hot
drink teamed with one of their nut mylks… #yum! They also have just opened a
restaurant in Soho’s Kingly Court. Harvey Nichols, Knightsbridge. www.detoxkitchen.co.uk
Possibly one of our favourite places to go
right now, Nama offers an array of delicious vegan dishes all of which looks as beautiful as it tastes. The
smoothies are expensive but worth it and our top tip here would be to book your
table to avoid disappointment. The
vegan, raw lasagna is divine followed by a vegan “bounty bar” from their fridge
for desert. The perfect place to go with friends and family for a light lunch
or quick evening meal. 110 Talbot Road, London. www.namafoods.com
