Where, oh, where does a vegan eat in the land of oil and beef?

I LOVE OPEN SESAME. I go here every time I come to Calgary, mainly because it is the only place I know of in Calgary where I can eat a safely vegan meal and my parents and friends can eat whatever they choose to eat without having to "suffer" a…More »

Being a Calgary-born Vancouver transplant, I've come to expect that when I visit Calgary I'll be able to eat only what I bring with me when I'm around town - vegan food is scarce in this oil-and-beef city. So when a friend of mine who lives next door…More »

Tubby Dog is a ridiculous hipster hangout with campy decor and weird toppings for hot dogs. Last time I was there, which was, admittedly, over a year ago, they served Tofurky dogs as their veggie dog - if this is still the case, I appreciate that…More »

As a vegan who moved to Vancouver from Calgary as soon as I could (age 18), I never thought I'd find a place as hip and conscious as The Coup in Calgary. I'm so glad this place is here. It's a place I can go for a meal with my friends when I go home…More »

White Oak underwent a transformation a couple of years ago and boy oh boy am I glad it did! At the previous White Oak I was once served vegan fish that was still frozen in the middle... eep! But with a revamped menu and friendly staff this place is…More »

Recently updated lists from Malloreigh M.

Coffee & Tea (29)

Spots for caffeine fixin' in the Couve.

Vegan Vancouver (49)

Places to eat if you eschew animal products. All-vegan at the top, then all-vegetarian, then vegan-friendly omnivorous, each section organized from highest to lowest star rating.

Grocery Shop (10)

I'm a picky grocery consumer - I find shopping at big box stores really frustrating. Here's a list of grocery stores in Vancouver with great selections of interesting food, ethnic ingredients, spices, organic produce, and some specialty items that are useful for vegan cooking.

Just One Drink (23)

Some lovely places to go for a drink - cocktails, beer, or wine - where you probably won't be able to have just one.

Exceptional Vancouver (18)

Take visitors from out of town to these interesting, unique spots for a cool and unusual experience.

Shushi (13)

I make that typo all the time. Sushi (and other Japanese).

Victoria (6)

Vegan hotspots in Our Province's Great Capitol.

Business Time (13)

Great places to bring a date. Conducive to conversation, generally high food quality, decent atmosphere and good lighting. Also, food that isn't heavy, so you can get down to business later.

Curries and Chutneys and Dosas, Oh My (14)

Where can a spice-lovin' vegetarian find satisfying South Asian food in Vancouver?

San Francisco (12)

These are the places I have reviewed in SF.
