🪩 Join us for a fabulously fun night at Karamel, where we'll take over the entire venue: socialise in the restaurant area over food and drinks, or showcase your talents on stage!
(There will always be a seating area dedicated to quieter conversations.)

🍔 THE FOOD
Karamel's fully vegan menu varies every time! The selection for the night will be announced on a blackboard. It usually includes a few daily specials as well as staples like burgers, pizzas, and a variety of delicious sides and desserts.

🍹 THE DRINKS
Beer on tap, wine by the glass, and a selection of cocktails and mocktails: Karamel's fully vegan bar has something for every taste.

👩‍🎤 THE MUSIC
The first part of the evening will feature an open mic night where anyone is welcome to showcase their talents (musical or otherwise), opened by Mixer regular Alfie Paca 🦙

Starting around 9 PM, KaraoChris will host karaoke for the rest of the night: sign up to jump on stage and sing your heart out! Karamel have kindly offered a meal for two as a prize for the best singer.

🤗 ATTENDING
Entry to the event is totally free, but please do support the venue by buying some of their delicious food and drinks (both 100% vegan!).

All are welcome, and we strive to make the event a safe and inclusive space for everyone - no discriminatory or abusive behaviour of any kind will be tolerated.

🌱 THE VENUE
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 at 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 (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 our sister event, the regular board game event Geekstraveganza (as they’ve done since its inception in 2016), and a lot of other wonderful events for the local area and the wider London vegan community.
