Berlin is by far the city with the most vegan offerings and possibilities.
Vegan restaurants, cafes, you can find even a vegan beer garden and vegan takeaway.
Worldwide it’s already known as THE vegetarian and most nutritionally aware city in the world, reported the magazine THE LOCAL recently.
In particular in Berlin’s districts (also called “Kiez” in Berlin dialect) Kiez Neukölln, Kreuzberg, Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain cavort many vegan offerings.
If it’s not already a vegan shop, then you can find at least a few vegan meals on the menu.
I’ve been for one month in Berlin and could test several restaurants.
Here my favourites:
- Let it Be (Neukölln): Very delicious Crêpes and Burger. Especially the Crêpes – unique in taste and great big portions for its price. Website Let It Be
Best vegan crepes – Let It Be
- Sahara Sudanese Imbiss: There are a few Sudanese diners, especially in Neukölln and Kreuzberg. I have been to the one around the corner where I lived in Neukölln, close to the Tempelhof. They have 2 vegan menus as an option. I chose the vegan plate with Falafel, Magali and sweet potatoes. Website Sahara Sudanesischer Imbiss
- Gourmet Vegan “La Mano Verde” (note: currently closed at the time of publishing): The restaurant is by far probably the most expensive one. But therefore worth it, if you search for something special. As a vegan gourmet restaurant it has typically very small portions, a selected small menu, but is very unique, extraordinary and delicious. The owner, an Italian, is still cooking most of the time themself in the restaurant and also offers cooking classes in-house. Website La Mano Verde
La Mano Verde, Berlin- Goura Pakoura (vegan Indian Vedic, currently closed at the time of publishing): A small Indian restaurant with vegan Indian Vedic cuisine and decoration. The restaurant is located in Friedrichshain. Website Goura Pakoura
- Sun Day Burgers: Here you can get not just vegan burgers on Sunday. Quite the contrary, on all days except Sundays in the market hall No. 9 you can enjoy a burger, soups, smoothies, juices, raw food fresh, or buy foods for home as super foods. Eisenbahnstraße 42; 10997 Berlin – U1 Görlitzer Park. Website Sun Day Burgers

Die Rebellion des Zimtsterns: Vegan, vegetarian breakfast, snacks and lunch offerings. The salads are ok, but not very extraordinary and quite small portions for the price. But the coffee, vegan drinks and sweets shall be really good. Website Rebellion des Zimtsterns

Lucky Leek (Vegan & Veggie Bar): The vegan restaurant has a special style due to cook Josita Hartanto who has already one Michelin star. One of the few rewarded vegan restaurants. Reservation recommended. Website Lucky Leek
- Die Chaostheorie (cafe with WiFi): Nice bar, completely vegan with indoor and outdoor area, when the weather is nice in Berlin. Very delicious smoothies, vegan Lassies, cocktails, breakfast, sandwiches and desserts. The style rocks in stylish understatement design. Nice ambience. Website Chaostherorie Berlin

Oh, thank you all.
Yes, in Berlin there is so much to explore of vegan cuisine.
I stayed 1 month in Berlin and was not able to test everything. 😀
We managed to eat at a few of these places but we were only there for a week.
You definitely need more time to really eat at every place. 🙂
I would love to travel to Berlin someday, everything looks so nice and yummy!
So many amazing places to eat in Berlin.
Had the chance to eat at a few of these delicious places. YoYo was one of my fave places while in Berlin.
This post is blowing my mind! After spending nearly five days in Berlin that were basically made up of non-stop eating and restaurant hopping, I find myself having not even heard of more than half of the places you mention as your favorites! I’m not at all sad to say that I’ll just have to go back to try these out some other time 🙂 Thank you for sharing, Supi!
