Vegan Tiffin Walthamstow
Evening-only vegan Indian curry takeaway on Wood Street, Walthamstow, built around tofu-based 'vegan paneer' dishes. Reviews flag that it shares operations with the Tandoori Nights brand — including one order where real dairy paneer was sent — and a possible change of hands around 2025.
Why it's listed: Vegan Tiffin Walthamstow (E17) is a dedicated fully vegan takeaway restaurant — low review volume but a genuine plant-based local concept.
