Having trouble finding good vegan grub? Then check out this list of the best vegan restaurants in Joburg. They offer a great place to indulge and celebrate this World Vegan Day (which is on 01 November if you missed it).
The Jozi Vegan
Experience the delights of cruelty-free cuisine at The Jozi Vegan, nestled in the vibrant Rivonia district of Johannesburg. Located at 2, 5th Avenue, Rivonia, Sandton, this restaurant invites patrons to explore a diverse menu that celebrates the rich flavours of nature. From plant-based burgers to delightful plant-based desserts, you’ll find everything green and wholesome here!
The Fussy Vegan
The Fussy Vegan started at a branch tucked away behind a garage in Blairgowrie. They now have branches at CityROCK and in Greenside. The Fussy Vegan serves up tasty vegan snacks and treats, toiletries and other items of convenience. But they make it onto this list because of their delectable vegan fare.
Our favourite menu item is definitely the Rib Burger. Served on a sesame seed bun, with a crunch of colourful veg, this is a must-try! But those looking for something a little healthier can opt for one of their bowls, we recommend the Poke Bowl with crispy cashews, creamy avo, ginger, endamame beans and fresh mango, sprinkled with black sesame seeds.
Kaylee’s Eatery
Vegans of Bedfordview have flocked to Kaylee’s Eatery since its opening not too long ago. And we don’t blame them. Serving all day breakfasts, hearty sandwiches and oh so sweet treats, this is a must visit for any vegan in the city.
Being a lover of all things sweet, we can’t resist one of the fluffy Belgian waffles, topped off with a thick and creamy gourmet milkshake. If that wasn’t sweet enough, give the Lemon Meringue, Traditional Apple Pie or Chocolate Mousse a go! Not a fan of the sweet stuff? No worries! Kaylee makes a wide variety of yummy savoury options, from the world famed Beyond Meat Burger to healthy and filling Power Bowls.
Leafy Greens Café
Hidden away behind lush greenery, Leafy Greens in Muldersdrift uses self-sustained, organic and home grown produce to provide tasty meals that are vegan, healthy and top quality.
The menu offers a wide variety of vegan dishes for you to explore. But the top choice for any regular has got to be the buffet. This buffet is nothing like the flavourless, cold and overcooked buffets offered elsewhere. Instead, this table serves up freshly prepared food that is perfectly cooked each and every time. Don’t believe us? Then try it out for yourself.
Fresh Earth
Whether you’re looking to do a little grocery shopping for organic foods or want a relaxing stop at a healthy café for a bite to eat, head down to Fresh Earth Food Store! Fresh Earth Café will whip up some healthy vegetarian and vegan delights which cater to your dietary requirements, from wheat/gluten intolerances to hypo-glycaemia. The Chickpea Avo Wrap sounds like a winner – chickpea stew, avocado, fresh lettuce, spring onion and coriander!
