00:00 Here is your guide to Glasgow's West End this Veganuary.

00:03 So starting on Great Western Road, which happens to be the city's longest and straightest road.

00:07 Firstly, we have Roots and Fruits.

00:09 Now it's not strictly plant-based, but it does specialise.

00:11 Here you can get pre-made salads, samosas, soups, coffee.

00:15 They also have lots of vegan sweet treats, as well as shelves and fridges full of ingredients such as tofu, tempeh and cheese.

00:20 Next, moving to Buyers Road, there's Hillhead Book Club, who have an extensive range of vegan food.

00:25 They also do Meat Free Mondays, where there is 30% off all plant-based dishes.

00:29 Then there's Cafe Swiss, who have two options for vegan milkshakes.

00:33 Then across the road, there's Juicy.

00:34 They have plenty of plant-based smoothies, juices and food options on their menu,

00:38 and plenty of vegan cakes in their bakery section.

00:40 Now you've probably heard of Holland & Barrett, a high street staple since 1870.

00:44 Well, it's a goldmine for vegan products.

00:46 This is where you can get ingredients for cooking and baking.

00:49 There's a varied range of snacks and chilled products.

00:51 They also have a broad range of alternative milks, which I encourage you to try out.

00:55 Further along the street, down Ruffin Lane, there's both the Hanoi Bike Shop and Chacu,

00:59 a Vietnamese restaurant and Indian restaurant respectively, each with fantastic plant-based options.

01:04 Then we have the Santa Lucia Deli, renowned for its Italian sandwiches.

01:07 Now they do have a vegan option with a grilled aubergine base. It is delicious.

01:11 There's Sista Pasta Restaurant, down the street, also has plant-based alternatives.
