Mollie’s Motel & Diner (www.mollies.com), the ‘budget-luxe’ concept by Soho House has recently launched in Bristol and Oxfordshire and I wanted to put some of their delicious vegan options on your readers radar.
Mollie’s Diner is a modern all-day hang-out serving up contemporary, seasonal cooking for solo travellers or families, friends and lovers. With interiors designed exclusively by Soho House, the setting hints at a classic diner style, but is reinvented with elegant vintage inspired lighting, sleek tiling, comfortable banquettes, warm wood and chrome fittings and lots of natural light. Mollie’s embraces classic diner culture, welcome to all, a mission to become a friendly spot for regulars, the local community and travellers alike. Serving up shakes, plant-based salads and fries and coffee, the Diner offers a warm welcome, great food and a lively atmosphere with a carefully curated music playlist. Early-riser or late-nighter, Mollie’s all-day diner culture has guests covered. From build-your-own breakfast waffles and pancakes to downright decadent burgers and rotisserie chicken; from healthy salads and plant-based options to a wildly extensive dessert menu and bottomless cups of Mollie’s own artisanal house coffee blend. Mollie’s is a place for guests to gather and enjoy great food with quality ingredients at the right price in a fun and cool atmosphere.
Mollie’s menu caters widely to dietary requirements and the menu includes gluten free and vegan friendly options. The diner also operates a completely nut free kitchen. The extensive and accommodating all-day menu has favourites for everyone, from diner classics to healthy options, with a tasty salad section. The menu includes burgers and sandwiches with house made sauces, such as Double Cheeseburgers, Plant-Based Burgers and Chilli Cheese-Dogs. Breakfast staples include stacks of Pancakes or Waffles, Eggs Your Way, French Toast and Avocado & Poached Eggs on Sourdough.
The menu spotlights delicious plant-based dishes including:
- Fried Aubergine served with marinara and oregano
- Butter Lettuce & Avocado salad with a mustard dressing;
- The Plant Burger: a Beyond Meat patty with tomato, lettuce, pickle and a special mustard-mayo.
