so, in the absence of the wetherspoons beer and burger deal being suitable, i've been wondering about Scream pubs and their 'happy heifer', which looked like it could be ok, as long as it didn't have any whey or eggs in it.
so, i emailed scream, and i got the following reply:
Dear Ms Keeling
Ref 283769
Thank you for your email. After contacting our Brand Team, I have been advised that the Veggie Burger does contain cheese and therefore is not suitable for vegan's.
The options that you have stated, would be the best choice for Vegan's.
Until then, please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of any further assistance.
Yours sincerely

the options i stated was the houmous sarnie with no marge, which is what i've had in there before.
however, i've written back, because i actually asked for a complete list of vegan suitables, and i also realised she called the happy heifer a 'veggie 'burger' and i wondered if she's talking about he wrong thing.
anyway...so for the moment, it looks like the burger deal there is a no no. however, i did mention in my reply that us vegans are normal people too, and if we knew their beer and burger deal was suitable for us, they might find themselves with a somewhat loyal following. i also pointed out that they are a typically a student joint and of course us hippy students all care about the animals :thumbsup:
anyway, they seem to be pretty quick to reply, so we'll see what happens.
