Tossed is a UK fast food chain providing healthy food, fresh-made to order. At the start of 2022 it has 12 outlets, all in central London. [1]

Tossed operates under the strapline of "food to make you feel good", offering a range of salads, wraps, hot food, smoothies, juices and protein shakes, as well as a breakfast range featuring freshly made eggs and vegan porridge. [2]

As well as providing food-to-go in its central London stores, Tossed also provides vending machines to satellite locations, including several London hospitals, under the brand speedygreens.

History[]

Tossed founder Vincent Mckevitt opened his first branch in Sheldon Square in Paddington, London in 2005.[3]

In March 2016, Tossed announced that they would become the first UK chain not to accept cash.[4][5]

In March 2018, Tossed announced they had bought the Vital ingredient chain.[6]

In July 2020, during the first lockdown for COVID19 in central London, Zest Food, the company trading as both Tossed and Vital Ingredient, filed a notice of intention to appoint administrators. Prior to the pandemic, it had been trading from 20 stores across the two brands. [7]

In September 2020, it was announced that the Tossed brand and six of its stores had been acquired by Neil Sebba and Angelina Harrisson. [8]
