Best Vegan Restaurants in West Vancouver

"The jewel of Vancouver’s vegetarian and vegan dining scene, The Acorn Restaurant (3995 Main Street), has consistently been lauded for its refined approach to seasonal plant-based eating. Big Seven Travel listed them as the #1 vegan-friendly restaurant in the world. A tour of the menu reveals many beautifully conceived and executed items, such as pan-roasted North Arm Farm black salsify with burnt grand fir brown butter, Mount Pleasant magnolia vinegar, parsley root purée, ox-eye daisy capers, and crispy salsify skins."

"The Acorn opened a few years ago, and they have already been voted #1 Best Vegetarian and Vegan restaurant in Vancouver by Westender Magazine AND Vancouver magazine. Even more impressive, Scout Magazine also included them in the list of 25 Best Restaurants in Vancouver (veggie or not!). Needless to say, this place is worth the visit even if you aren’t living that plant-based life."

"Heirloom vegetarian restaurant is in a beautifully restored heritage building just off Granville and 12th but there are other locations across the city. The brunch menu is half vegan half vegetarian and the avocado benedict and the brassica hash with broccolini, brussels sprouts and cauliflower are always crowd-pleasers. But the real start of the show are the buckwheat pancakes which are layered and topped with house-made seasonal compote and cashew coconut cream."

"Heirloom has made a name for itself as one of the go-to dinner spots for vegetarians and carnivores alike. The space itself is bright and trendy, and the menu boasts a variety of vegetarian takes on the classics. Large salads, stone bowls, and comfort foods like the “not butter chicken” (SO GOOD!!) make up the diverse menu."

"Heirloom is a popular weekend brunch spot for amazing vegan and vegetarian fare. All products are sourced locally and organic whenever possible, so you can eat in good conscience. Everything on their menu can be made vegan, too."

"From one space in Chinatown to an international company, Virtuous Pie is a must-know name not just for vegan fare, but for pizza in general. Opting for a delicious thin crust as the base, Virtuous Pie has a wide variety of options, ranging from classic marinara all the way to truffle touches and Buffalo cauliflower on top. The pies are super reasonably priced too, which means more cash in your pocket for their garlic knots or some mac and cheese on the side."

"Address: UBC – 3330 Shrum Lane, Vancouver BC | Chinatown – 583 Main Street, Vancouver BC. This is an all-vegan pizza place that I’ve been wanting to try for a long time. We grabbed the following pizzas (everything was delicious and all my non-vegan friends enjoyed the pizzas as well!):"

While the Naam has a number of items that range from the $5 to $15 mark, what helps this all-veggie restaurant shine is the hearty portion sizes. You’d be surprised at how much you can fill up with their plate of veggies; we highly recommend trying their fries with extra miso gravy."

"As for late night munchies you can’t go wrong with a quick trip to The Naam. These guys have been ‘doing’ vegetarian since before it was a thing and that has noticeably given them time to perfect their craft. Delicious, no-fuss, quick and easy veggie comfort food."

"A Vancouver institution, The Naam has been around since 1968 and has a fully vegetarian menu. It’s also open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so there’s never a bad time to get tasty vegetarian food. Breakfast is served from 6 am to 11:30 pm and later on weekends."

"A post shared by MeeT in Gastown (@meetgastown) on Oct 16, 2017 at 9:46am PDT. Both locations of MeeT are all about delicious eats in a fun space…minus the meat. Their menu is vegan and mostly gluten free, but their clever dishes with big, bold flavours won’t leave you feeling like you’ve missed anything (i.e. meat) at all."

"A post shared by Amy Jung Shan (@amyhu803) on Feb 26, 2018 at 5:25pm PST. Head to this East Vancouver staple in the early evenings and you’ll find it chock a block full of families with kids. My latest visit saw no less than six high chairs being used."

"There are days when nothing but sushi will do, and wanting your sushi to be fresh and of the best quality goes without saying. That’s where West End’s Tom Sushi comes in, with not just premium quality sushi, but affordable prices too. Their food is super delicious, and that’s why they also made it to the top of our list of Best Sushi spots in Vancouver."

"Since Vancouver has so many great established sushi spots, most people have their go-to spots. This tends to make it difficult for newcomers to sway or impress locals. Not the case for Tom Sushi."
