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.

After winning best bakery in the city for 2014, Apiecalypse Now decided to expand and innovate! Opening in 2015, Toronto’s first vegan Pizza Shop & Snack Bar! What’s a snack bar? That’s the real beautiful part of this whole thing–it’s basically your vegan junk food dreams come alive. Vegan Corn Dogs… Vegan Doughnuts… Vegan Cheezy Garlic Bread… Buffalo Ranch Salads and Vegan Not-Chicken Caesar Salads. Our pizzas are done in an authentic pizza oven that never even one time has had meat in it. Also aren’t you tired of omnivores just sprinkling some Daiya on some crust and calling it vegan pizza? We 1) know how to make vegan cheese taste like the real thing 2) we make our own mock meat and we know how to cook it so it doesn’t taste like a mummy’s fingers 3) We understand how wholly sick you are of just eating tomato sauce and veggies. For too long Toronto has envied all those American cities with real vegan toppings and more than one vegan sauce base, and dip… remember GARLIC DIP? We do. And we got you. We have 6 kinds of dip. And you can eat all of it. Fool your friends! P00n your hockey team by making them eat vegetarian and totally not know! Maybe die at a slightly slower rate because you didn’t eat bacon today! Just come get some authentically vegan, not passably vegan pizza and stuff it in your cool beautiful faces.

Bunner’s Bakeshop was started by Ashley Wittig and Kevin MacAllister – two entrepreneurs who saw the need in Toronto for a bakery that caters to those with food sensitivities and allergies AND tastes just like traditional baked goods. No compromises. After a summer of testing Ash’s creations at a local farmer’s market and watching their fan base grow by the week, they started looking for a bricks and mortar location. With a shoe-string budget, some first class haggling over rent and equipment, and a whole lot of moxy and elbow grease they opened their first retail location on Dec. 11 2010. Once it got out that you could buy piping hot GF & V bread, cinnamon buns and muffins baked fresh daily, customers took it upon themselves to spread the word and Bunner’s grew from a few friends to a big family. Bunner’s currently has two retail locations, a cook book published by Harper Collins in Canada and the USA, and employs a staff of more then 20 of the most awesome bakers and customer service reps you’ll ever meet!

All adoptions are to be done at Café Venosa as we will be recognized as a responsible shelter soon by MAPAQ.

Making people happy by offering fresh and wholesome Lebanese food. Nuba’s Lebanese style taverna in Kitsilano, is in the space formerly occupied by the legendary Greek Taverna Orestes. The walls still speak of a time of glory when woody restaurants and bars flourished in Kitsilano. Unchecked by fashion, Nuba in Kitsilano is a Lebanese taverna, like one might have visited back in the days before the civil war, somewhere along Lebanon’s stretch of Mediterranean coastline, in towns like Jounieh or Sour. The cavernous complexity of the restaurant’s interior unfolds over multiple levels through small, low-ceilinged nooks, and up and down numerous staircases. These enigmatic rooms open out around an expansive glass-covered courtyard inhabited with plants and benches. The overall effect produced by the scale and geography of the space has earned it the pet name “Nuba Village”. …. CATERING BY NUBA Throwing and Event, Party or Gathering? Nuba now does catering.
