Address: 257 Main Rd, Scarborough Hours: 8:30am-5pm Mon, closed Tue, 8:30am-5pm Wed-Sun Website Facebook In the quest to try to cover as many vegan restaurants as possible I have literally tripled my petrol budget for the past month. When you find me homeless begging outside The Hungry Herbivore in town, please throw me your vegan scraps! Bankruptcy is nigh!
