The Best Vegan Restaurants in Cologne
Whether you’re following a Vegan Diet or you’re just looking for some good food: here are the recommendations from our free walking tour guides for the best vegan restaurants in Cologne!
1. Chum Chay
Chum Chay is a Vietnamese, vegan restaurant right in the city centre near Rudolfplatz. With a variety of delicious dishes and fresh ingredients, this is one of our favorite vegan options. Although not strictly vegan (they have vegetarian dishes as well), this is a must try for vegans in Cologne. Small dishes start from 5,90 Euro with regular main courses coming closer to 12 Euro.
2. Bunte Burger
One day, the founders of Bunte Burger (colourful burgers) quit their manager jobs and bought a food truck to serve vegan burgers in Cologne. Today, just a couple of years later, they serve organic burgers in a restaurant in the district Ehrenfeld. The burgers start at 10,90 Euro.
3. Mei Wok Vegan
Mei Wok Vegan provides Asian vegan cuisine with organic and if possible regional vegetables. Whether you are in the Northern or Southern part of Cologne, you don’t have to be hungry for long. Mei Wok Vegan has restaurants in two districts: one in Ehrenfeld and one in Sülz. Soups cost 7 Euro, salads 8 Euro and main courses 12 Euro.
4. Edelgrün
Edelgrün focuses on clean eating, which means natural, high-quality and fresh ingredients. Diversity and sustainability are keywords here. The menu is not exclusively vegan or vegetarian but you will find amazing vegan dishes here. For example, baked eggplant filled with date-almond quinoa.
5. Mashery Hummus Kitchen
Everything is homemade at Mashery Hummus Kitchen and most of the dishes are vegan. The Hummus is prepared freshly every day. That is “true hummus love”, as the founders say. A Hummus dish starts from 8 Euro.
6. Falafel König
Falafel König (King) in Ehrenfeld does not only serve vegan food but you should go for falafel or makali with their vegan sauce made out of Tahini. The tasty role will fill you and make you happy for only 5 Euro.
7. Sattgrün
Not what you’d necessarily expect from a delicious buffet, but Sattgrün offers a wonderful Vegan selection throughout the week. Fill your plate with a delicious mix of cuisines all served fresh.
8. To80 Vegan
