I noticed the "Omnivorous" check box, but clicking it doesn't show that many more places - I assumed omnivorous would mean something along the lines of: every pub, restaurant, and shop in London. Apparently not, so, can somebody explain what being an "omnivore" as a lifestyle choice (or whatever) means in this day and age?

I'm planning to add more omnivorous places that do an OK job of catering to veggies. Particularly places like East Street, near Oxford Street. It's not a vegetarian restaurant, but it's got vegan options clearly marked on the menu and all the staff seem pretty switched on. My goal is to help people find places where their veggie friends can have a good meal easily, without lots of explanation to the staff about what they do and don't eat.

Thanks for taking the time to explain it :)

I think almost every restaurant in London would be considered "vegetarian friendly", at least by US standards. No matter where I went, there were multiple options clearly marked on the menu. It's the easiest place I've ever visited food-wise.

Perhaps "vegan friendly" places is harder though, I don't know.
