°18.05.31.Thu | Vegan in Prague

We haven’t been to Prague for seventeen years and much has changed in that time. Notably, there are now dozens of veg* restaurants. Every neighborhood has a few.

Nora and I use the “Vegan Guide to Prague” as our basis and collected a few notes along the way. These are roughly ordered in ascending preference.

• Loving Hut: they are okay in a pinch, but I quickly tired of Asian-style buffets.
• Maitrya: Buddhist themed, lackluster food. We asked for tap water and got expensive “vitalized water.”
• Pure Bistro: a tiny bistro and store near our place, for which I was grateful.
• Mlsná kavka: had an excellent veggie burger.
• Herbivore: upscale bistro and store on the river with a buffet of good food – though the bread was stale.
• Happy Bean: a bistro at which I got a great quesadilla with vegan cheese. The proprietor is very charming. Sidewalk seating is available.
• The Donut Shop: next door to the Happy Bean, this shop offers three vegan donuts options, including one of the best donuts I’ve ever had. (Things aren’t so sweet in Prague, so you don’t end up feeling queasy when finishing a donut.)
• Incruenti: I think our risotto and soup was the best food we had during our trip. Its menu and hours are limited though. Nice patio seating in the back.
