Try Veg-Out: Southampton’s Beloved Pop-Up Vegan Café

At October Books, we’re all about fostering community and sustainability—which is why we’re thrilled to be the home of Veg-Out, Southampton’s beloved pop-up vegan no-waste café.

Veg-Out isn’t just about amazing plant-based food; it’s a movement to bring people together. It’s a warm, welcoming space providing nutritious meals made with love for the local community. With goals to reduce food waste (much of the fruit and vegetables are surplus donations from local traders), combat hunger, advocate for environmental and vegan values, and foster strong community connections, Veg-Out offers meals that are kind to the planet and kind to you.

If that wasn’t enough, Veg-Out also hosts Musical Mondays, with local musicians often performing live acoustic sets—what better way to start the week?

Join us every Monday, back next week (13th January) from 11:45 AM to 3:00 PM and enjoy a delicious meal on a pay-what-you-can basis.

Veg-Out is always on the lookout for committed volunteers to help out. Opportunities include serving tables, clearing up, washing up, prepping food, and more. Whether you can volunteer for the whole day or just a few hours, your time and effort will make a big difference!
