1. Loving Hut
Thanks to this amazing place, you can enjoy vegan versions of traditional Vietnamese dishes. You can either order something from the menu or put on your plate whatever you like from the buffet. To drink, you can choose some bottled beverages of local brands or free lemon and cucumber water. If you want something sweet, you’ll also get it here - there’s a wide choice of delicious vegan cakes!
And what’s the best thing about buffet restaurants? End-of-the-day discount! Depending on the opening hours, the discount starts at different times, but it’s usually during the last one or two hours before closing.
This is a chain restaurant - for all locations and the menu, go there:

2. Strecha
Eating in this restaurant, you will not only enjoy delicious vegan food, but also support local people in need. The place is putting into life a concept of socially engaged business and gives jobs and other support to people who experienced homelessness or spent time in prison.
In the menu, you will find mostly Czech cuisine - of course vegan. The restaurant also serves Czech beer, and the atmosphere is the closest it gets to the local pub feeling from all the vegan restaurants in Prague. So, if you want a local Czech experience, but without meat - this is the place to go.
3. Herbivore
This cute restaurant offers creative vegan dishes, beaming with colours, thanks to the variety of vegetables used. In addition to the fixed offer, on their daily menu, you will find a different soup and main dish every day.
During my first visit there, I ordered the dish of the day, which had a cauliflower as a base, even though I’m not a big fan of this vegetable - I was so surprised when I tasted it, it was the best cauliflower I have ever eaten!
Before leaving the restaurant, don’t forget to get one of their vegan cakes as a dessert and explore vegan groceries, which they also sell there.
4. Linh’s Vegan Corner
Linh’s is my safe option for food delivery - if I can’t decide what I want, I take one of their vegan Vietnamese dishes and I’m always happy. The menu is huge though, you can choose from soups, noodles, sushi, and even burgers, including their one and only rice burger (with rice instead of buns, really!).
The location is great if you get hungry in the middle of exploring the Old Town. The restaurant is just a few minutes walking from the Old Town Square, but is luckily placed in a passage, which makes it hidden from the crowds of tourists.
Bonus points for vegan cakes!
5. Palo Verde
I would recommend Palo Verde especially for their creative vegan breakfasts, like kimchi omelet or scrambled tofu, which tasted so egg-like that I wasn’t sure what I was eating (so if you’re a vegan missing eggs, it’s something for you!). Of course, you can also choose from a variety of vegan lunch and dinner meals.
The restaurant is not the cheapest (but also not super expensive, a bit over Prague average) and it’s often full, so making a reservation might be a good idea.
6. Maitrea
Maitrea is another restaurant that usually requires booking a table in advance. Situated very close from the Old Town Square, can be a nice ending to a day of walking around the center of Prague.
Similarly to Strecha, here, you can also enjoy vegan (and vegetarian) versions of traditional Czech dishes. Apart from these, the menu includes a mixture of Asian and Italian cuisine, and a few burgers.
Most of the tables are placed in the basement with very nice lighting, creating a romantic atmosphere - it’s a good place for a date, with a partner or with yourself.
7. Forky’s
I’m a big fan of the Brno branch of Forky’s - if you’re planning to visit the second biggest Czech city, definitely go eat there! However, the two Prague locations also offer super tasty food and a cozy atmosphere.
The menu is a mixture of everything - burgers, Asian flavors, Czech-inspired meals… Sometimes (in Brno - always) you can also find there vegan desserts and beverages of their own brand, for example, kombucha, which I like a lot.
It’s worth mentioning that one of the Prague restaurants is situated in the Holesovice district, which is a less touristy, but vibrant and definitely worth exploring area.
8. Blatouch
Let’s go back to the other side of the river and walk to Vinohrady - another less touristy part of Prague, which is a must see for someone who wants to experience more than the Old Town Square and Charles Bridge. On your walk around the lovely streets, full of beautifully-renovated old buildings, you’ll finally stumble upon a cute square (which is actually round) with a few restaurants. Among them - Blatouch.
I have to say it happened to me that I wasn’t satisfied with the experience in Blatouch - I had to wait a long time for the waitress and the food wasn’t as good as usually. However, all the other times I enjoyed it a lot. There are only a few dishes on the menu - if you’re not in the mood for one of their creative inventions, there are also burgers.
In Blatouch, you can also drink the beer named Blatouch - a perfect option especially for summer, when you can drink it at the table outside or take it “away” and sit in the middle of the square.
9. Dhaba Beas
Dhaba Beas is a vegetarian buffet restaurant with clearly marked vegan options. You can put whatever you want on your plate (and trust me, you want to try many things there) and then pay according to the weight of the food.
As I recall, the restaurant used to offer mostly Indian cuisine, but now it’s more of a mix. There is still an Indian vibe - you’re going to eat on metal plates divided into a few sections, and you can definitely recognize Indian spices in various dishes. But often you can also find some Czech dumplings, sushi, or Vietnamese noodles. There is also a big offer of fresh vegetables.
Dhaba Beas is one of the cheaper options to eat in Prague, especially in the last hour of opening, when most of the branches offer a big discount. Moreover, there are many locations around the city, so you likely won’t have to go far to eat there.
10. Dim Sum Spot
Chinese dumplings might not be the obvious food option when you’re in Prague, but in case you’re in the mood for them, Dim Sum Spot is the place to go.
Keep in mind that they serve food for everyone, including meat-eaters, so if you want to eat in a fully meat-free place, it’s not the best option. Or, on the contrary, if you’re traveling with someone who wants to eat meat and you want to eat vegan, definitely go there.
The vegan selection is surprisingly big for a non fully vegan place. The descriptions of the dumplings fillings sound amazing, and, more importantly, the dumplings taste delicious! There is also a nice selection of drinks - from a refreshing pear lemonade to traditional Vietnamese tea.
Now, you don’t have to worry about finding vegan food in Prague. If you want to get more recommendations, explore our blog or book one of our photography services! See you in the Czech Republic!
