Auckland Vegan Dining
We vegans love exploring new vegan restaurants, especially when we are traveling. And these days, no matter where we travel there are amazing vegan dining options to choose from. This page shows some of the best vegan and vegan-friendly dining options contributed by members of our VeganTravel community. These eateries range from vegan fine dining restaurants to fast food takeout and smoothie bars. The vegan dining listings shown on this page were contributed, rated, and reviewed by your fellow vegans. We accept no advertising. Our goal is to provide a platform that truly respects and mirrors our collective vegan opinions and perspectives. As our global vegan community adds additional dining listings, and as we review and rate our favorites, the resulting listings will continually, and more accurately, reflect our global vegan dining preferences. Please consider reviewing and rating the eateries on this page so our vegan community can learn from your dining experiences. And if you know of any vegan eateries we missed, please consider adding them to our site.

Founded in 2013 by wellbeing-advocate Olivia Scott in growing demand for her outstanding handmade raw cakes, the word spread quickly and The Raw Kitchen started its journey! Initially Olivia sold her raw cakes to private customers and hand selected Auckland cafes and then in 2014 launched a weekend stall at La Cigalle Market. In 2015 The Raw Kitchen opened its doors to its much anticipated original store on Auckland’s iconic Ponsonby Road, and 2016 saw the launch of Olivia’s much first anticipated book, The Raw Kitchen. At our City Works Depot flagship store and kitchen, we offer an extensive range of raw breakfast cups, salads and wraps, snacks, sweet treats, nut mylks and retail products – all hand prepared fresh daily, as well as made to order smoothies and coffee by our team of amazingly passionate people.
