Praha Vegan Food A-Z
Similar to other European capitals, Praha in the Czech Republic is a great place to be for vegan food! From exclusively vegan restaurants to ones with good veggie and vegan options, there is a lot to choose from. To help you find 26+ of the best places and tastiest meals, I have compiled this Praha Vegan Food A-Z. In general, I found that allergens were clearly listed on the menus. All the places in this guide have good vegan and vegetarian options and include:
- Trendy neighbourhood cafes
- Self-service canteens with buffets (a traditionally Czech concept, don’t overlook these!)
- Community spaces
- Vegan fast food diners
- Health food restaurants
- Plantbased and vegan-friendly bakeries
- Family-run lunchrooms
The places listed in this guide are selected on being independent and using locally sourced ingredients where possible. This list is a combination of restaurants I visited, recommendations from others and highly-rated places. I regularly update this post, so any closed-down places will be replaced by new finds. If you’d rather see this list on a map, click here or scroll to the bottom of the page.

A – Ananta
With vegetables that are sourced directly from local farmers, Ananta focuses on providing fresh and healthy vegetarian/vegan food. The cuisine is best described as pan-Asian, with dishes originating from India all the way to Japan. With a menu that changes daily, you may want to come back here multiple times. Every day, the set menu consists of a main, soup, salad and dessert. You can either have a small portion or pay a little bit extra to go big. From the outside, the restaurant doesn’t look great, but it’s worth going in for a cozy atmosphere and simple but good food.
B – Bistro Pod Kavalírkou
This small bistro serves food that is clearly made with love. The owner is friendly and provides a range of both baked good and regular meals. It’s a great place to go if you’re exploring the west side of Praha. And did I mention all the food at Bistro Pod Kavalírkou is vegan? There is no set menu, so it’s a bit of a surprise what you will get, but with everything being homemade and crueltry-free, it can only be good.
C – CountryLife BIO
This is by far my favourite place to eat in Praha. CountryLife BIO not only has several organic grocery stores, it also has a vegan buffet restaurant right in the heart of the city. Because you pay for the weight of your food, CountryLife BIO encourages you not to scoop more onto your plate than you’ll be able to finish. The daily changing menu consists of lots of healthy plantbased (and glutenfree) dishes. Everything was so delicious that we went back for seconds. It’s one of those restaurants where I wish I could eat every day. So, if you visit Praha, make sure you work a meal at CountryLife BIO into your plans!
Not your thing? Try another ‘C’: Chutnej – A fully vegan kitchen and café that serves healthy mains and salads as well as indulgent burgers, desserts and pastries. Chutnej also does a good range of hot drinks, lemonades and even cocktails. In other words: a bit of everything!
D – THE DESIGN
THE DESIGN is a design shop and gallery, which also has a café. There are different types of art to look at in the shop, such as glassware, fashion and sculptures. The café at the back prides itself for its 100% Arabica coffee, of course roasted in Praha. If you’re not in the mood for coffee, you will have to try one of the Czech wines. The wines should all be vegan, as the only ingredient is grapes (and the only listed allergen is sulphites for some of them).
E – Etapa
Tucked away in a quiet, trendy corner of Praha, you will find Etapa. Even at brunchtime on a weekday, it was busy, and for good reason. I had a very flavourful homemade kombucha as a drink and a fantastic salad with toast. My sister went for apricot pancakes. You could genuinely taste the freshness of the wholefood ingredients. For a slightly fancy brunch with top tier vegan options, Etapa is the place to be. If you’re lucky with the weather, you can even sit outside.
F – Falafelova
Falafelova works on a franchise basis and already has multiple locations across Praha. The main force behind this small chain is their falafel: they sell vegan falafel mixes made from natural ingredients, which they also use in the restaurants. And obviously a Praha Vegan Food guide would not be complete without a good place to get your fix of falafel. You can choose to have your falafel in a salad, wrap, pitta or with dips. If it’s to your taste, you can then buy some falafel mix to recreate the dishes at home.
G – GrandeVita
This lunchroom is another cute place to get a nourishing meal from a menu that changes daily. Chefs in Praha must be having a good time coming up with something different every day! GrandeVita looks like a living room with a little shop and some seating for guests. Food is exclusively vegan and includes home-baked cakes. Depending on how hungry you are at lunchtime, you can opt for a big or small portion of soup and a main.
H – Healthy Longevity Café
As the name suggests, this organic restaurant focuses on healthy food and lifestyle. It uses lots of ‘superfoods’ and natural supplements such as oils and spices. The menu indicates whether each drink or meal is built for energy, immunity, gut health, cognitive function or stress-reduction. I spent a long time trying to choose a drink. Food was easier, due to limited vegan options. The smoked tofu bowl was very fulfilling, though! I think the Healthy Longevity Café is a great place when you’re craving a load of veggies. It’s also located near the train station, making it a good stop before or after a long journey.
Not your thing? Try another ‘H’: Herbivore – Another one where the name gives it away: Herbivore satisfies all your vegan cravings. Whether it’s nourishing bowls or fried vegan cheese, Herbivore has it all. It’s one of the highest rated vegan places in Praha, no suprise there!
I – INDelicious Bistro
When you are craving authentic Indian food, don’t miss out on INDelicious. This Indian street food bistro is fully vegetarian, with numerous clearly marked vegan options. The menu includes labels for glutenfree dishes and different levels of spiciness, too. Because INDelicious focuses on street food, you shouldn’t expect curries, but instead dosa, pakoda, paratha and other bread-based deliciousness. You can eat in at the small bistro or enjoy a discount on takeaway.
J – Jáma³ Garden Pub
If you want vegan comfort food but also need to please the omnivores in your group, Jáma³ Garden Pub is where to go. The pub is open daily from 16:00, serving hearty dinners. The vegan options on the menu are few but worthwhile. On top of that, there is often live music playing, which you can enjoy until well after midnight. The beers and other (alcoholic) beverages will help to keep you going!
K – Krafin
Krafin is a vegan bakery owned by the same people as Chutnej. Unsurprisingly, their specialty is the krafin: a hybrid between a croissant and muffin, filled with cream and fruit. Aside from a wide range of sweet treats, the bakers at Krafin also produce savoury pastries, as well as glutenfree options. To make sure the taste is as good as any non-vegan bake, Krafin imports special flour from France. Many of the ingredients are organic and the use of palm oil is avoided as much as possible. Sadly I haven’t been to Krafin myself, but Emma from @that_travel is a fan, and I trust her opinion!
Not your thing? Try another ‘K’: Kolacherie – A traditional Czech bakery with vegan options (also a tip from @that_travel). Forget the touristy Hungarian chimney cakes and instead try koláče, which is a sweet dough with a topping. I love the poppy seed ones! An absolute must-try if you visit Czech Republic.
L – Loving Hut
Loving Hut is another self-service canteen with a buffet. Similar to CountryLife BIO, you pay for the weight of your food. This time I was a bit too enthusiastic with how much I put on my plate, so I felt extremely full at the end. But everything looked so good, I wanted to try it all! Loving Hut serves vegan Asian-fusion dishes at 6 different locations in Praha. The bistros are filled with inspiratinal quotes that remind customers of the benefits to being vegan. But even non-vegans will enjoy themselves, as the food is generally very tasty.
Not your thing? Try another ‘L’: Lihn, Not Just A Restaurant – This family-run restaurant serves vegan Vietnamese food. The extensive menu offers everything from soups, hotpot and pho to a bunch of magical tofu dishes.
M – Mamafood
Named after the mum of the owner, Mamafood is a small family-run diner. It is located next to the family’s health food store, which is called Biocentrum Krakov. It’s a bit out of the way from the city centre, but Mamafood is located near some walking areas with panoramic views. The menu contains a mix of cuisines, from breakfast to dinner.
Not your thing? Try another ‘M’: Myslíš? – Where to find delicious craft beers and simple vegan bar snacks? The answer is: at Myslíš?. There are loads of events on if you fancy some evening entertainment. Visit Myslíš? for comedy nights, music and pub quizzes (some in English, some in Czech, some in Ukranian).
N – Natureza Vegetarian House
Sip a drink in the courtyard, join for a 2-course lunch menu comprising soup and a main, or try one of the raw cakes at Natureza Vegetarian House. Vegan and glutenfree options are clearly marked. Do pay attention to the opening times, as Natureza only does weekday lunches. Make sure to plan well, because sometimes the food runs out before closing time. You can also opt for takeaway.
O – Onigirazu
As a great city for vegan food, Praha couldn’t go without a good sushi place. Onigirazu are actually more like sushi sandwiches, and the same-named restaurant specialises in them. There are only a few other items on the menu, such as Japanese curry and soup. But the few things they do, they do well at Onigirazu!
P – Palo Verde
Did you know there is a vegan hotel in Praha, and that Palo Verde is its restaurant? I couldn’t resist a visit, though I must admit I wasn’t blown away by the menu. Palo Verde uses lots of meat alternatives for dishes like soy meatball sandwiches and not-chicken burgers. What I did really like was the massive pots of tea you could order. My sister and I also shared a yummy piece of vegan chocolate cake. I must say that the breakfast options appealed to me a lot more than the dinner ones. I’d therefore definitely consider staying at the hotel (called Salvator Boutique Hotel) when I visit Praha again.
Q – Q Café
This small gay bar isn’t the place to be for food, but they do have an extensive drink menu. If you get hungry, you can order simple snacks such as olives and nuts. This place is mainly about meeting people and having good conversations. And don’t worry, aside from locals, tourists are also welcome!
R – Riders Coffee
Riders Coffee is a bit of a hidden one, due to its location outside of the centre of Praha. To go with your hot drink, there is a range of vegan food on offer, including sandwiches, soups and pastries. The coffee bar is located at the ground floor of a residential building and overlooks a small park. As seems to be the case at most coffee bars in Praha, you can also get cocktails at Riders Coffee.
S – Střecha
I found out about Střecha through the Give Back Guide. Střecha is a completely vegan social enterprise that employs people who served a prison sentence or were previously homeless. Aside from providing employment to those who might otherwise struggle to land a job, Střecha also takes an active role in helping them with their finances. The restaurant is therefore doubles as a community hub where everyone can use the WiFi and hang out. As a customer, you can help by paying forward a meal for someone else through a donation. I really enjoyed the laidback atmosphere at Střecha, as well as the veganised traditional Czech dishes. The mushroom stew I would have again without a doubt!
Not your thing? Try another ‘S’: Sweet & Pepper Days – This was recommended to me by Lizet from @awanderfoodworld, who lived in Praha for 2,5 years. It has good vegan options and is fun by a local family. With a menu that changes regularly, people keep coming back to Sweet & Pepper Days.
T – The Tavern
This pub slash American diner is widely praised for its vegan burgers. If you’re looking for a greasy late-night option where they understands the difference between vegetarian and vegan, this is the place. Although the meat-free options are generally good, there is sadly no vegan alternative for the extravagant American brunch served on weekends.
U – Underdogs’ Café
The star of the show at this vegetarian café are the chickpea sandwiches. But if that isn’t your thing, you will be pleased to know that about 80% of the pastries at Underdogs’ Café are also vegan. Besides basic yet tasty food, Underdogs’ Café displays a healthy dose of activism. Keep an eye out for events, which should easily to fit into your itinerary, given the central location.
V – VNITROBLOCK
VNITROBLOCK is a really cool place that houses lots of small businesses. This deserted building has been transformed into a creative hub and event space. Among other things, you can find a distillery, gallery, clothing shop and of course a restaurant here. The menu changes regularly, but there is usually at least one vegan option. VNITROBLOCK is a place to go for the experience, and dogs are welcome, too.
Not your thing? Try another ‘V’: Vegan’s Prague – I always enjoy places where traditional dishes are veganised. Like Střecha, Vegan’s Prague is a good place for this. Bread dumplings, goulash with sauerkraut, beetroot salad – they have it all!
W – Waf-Waf
Several people recommended Waf-Waf to me, which is a small chain with locations throughout Praha. The menu consists of waffles in every shape and form, both sweet and savory. You can choose waffles made from vegan, glutenfree batter, but they do run out sometimes. The vegan-friendly toppings have clear labels, but there isn’t a whole lot of choice. The crêpes and American pancakes sadly don’t come with a vegan option at all. That being said, apparently it’s still worth it, because the waffles are amazing!
Not your thing? Try another ‘W’: WILD – A café by day and a cocktail bar by night, that’s WILD. The vegan breakfast options are limited (basically toast with avocado or hummus), but this place is all about drinks anyway. They serve oat milk, and there are a couple of mocktails on the menu, as well.
X – 25,2 rpm
Coffee and cocktails meet at 25,2 rpm. The seemingly cryptic name makes a lot more sense when you realise that 25,2 rpm sells vinyl records. Rpm stands for ‘revolutions per minute’ aka rotational speed. Aside from good coffee, this bar has a stylish interior design. It occasionally hosts music events, too.
Y – Yori Restaurant
Not a typical Czech restaurant, but I have to admit there is little choice for the Y. This pan-Asian restaurant is a good choice when you want a dish you recognise, in the centre of Praha. You can check the vegan food options online or using the allergen list. Most mains come with a choice of protein, which usually includes tofu.
Z – Zanzibar
Zanzibar is a family café with a strong community vibe. It’s friendly atmosphere and range of secondhand items (clothing, books, vinyl records) attracts a range of people. The owners describe Zanzibar as a laidback, inclusive space. In terms of food, there are a few vegan and glutenfree options. And they’re not the usual boring stuff, because have you ever had a creamy broccoli sandwich before? Or a portobello smash burger? I’d definitely try those!
Conclusion
Vegans will not struggle in Praha, especially if you keep this Praha Vegan Food A-Z to hand! 😉 I especially loved the self-service buffets, which are quite often vegetarian if not entirely vegan. It was also nice to try the plantbased versions of harty traditional Czech dishes. All of this makes Praha an amazing foodie destination, on top of everything else the city has to offer.
