Great Value Train Travel
Trying to stay healthy when you eat out a lot can be tricky, especially if you're visiting somewhere new and exciting. No matter how much restraint you may have, it's always tempting to go for your favourite cheese-infused dish instead of a sensible salad.
However, if you opt for a place that sells great, tasty and healthy bites, you won't have to worry when browsing the menu.
Hull and its surrounding areas are full of eateries that promote a healthier lifestyle, so why not tuck in?
Health Baa
Located in Hull city centre, Health Baa is the ideal place to grab some food whilst out shopping, or if you're attending one of the many UK City of Culture 2017 events.
Opened in 2016, the not-for-profit organisation serves a variety of good-for-you eats. They pride themselves on using locally produced ingredients, which are all supplied by community farms that support people with mental health issues. It's win-win all round.
Where: 95 Jameson Street, Hull
Open: Mon-Fri 9am-5pm, Sat 9am-6pm, Sun 10am-4pm
Hitchcock's Vegetarian Restaurant
This amazing place offers customers not only a wholesome meal, but also an extraordinary experience. The vegetarian restaurant only opens when enough people book, so be sure to tell them in advance if you're popping by, and bring your friends along too.
The menu for the evening is chosen by the first person to book for that night. You can pick from all sorts of cuisine, including Italian, Chinese, Mexican, Cajun, Indian, Russian and even English.
Once you're there, food is served in a buffet-style format, or as a set menu if you prefer. You can even choose to bring your own bottle or order from their bar. This place is definitely one to visit if you're only stopping in Hull for the night.
