Looking for the best vegetarian & vegan restaurants in Paris? French cuisine may not be known as vegetarian-friendly, but what can you expect from a traditional menu with canard, boeuf bourguignon and foie gras? However, many new vegetarian restaurants have emerged in Paris in recent years that are definitely worth a visit. And many regular restaurants in Paris also offer many vegetarian friendly options on the menu.
Especially in the east of Paris there are trendy hotspots for those who prefer veggie & vegan food. The area around République and Canal Saint-Martin are nice places to find vegan and vegetarian options. With many new restaurants that also prefer organic and local ingredients. Other neighborhoods where you can also enjoy delicious vegetarian food are Le Marais, Bastille and Belleville. We selected some of our favorite vegetarian addresses in Paris.
