Vedge, Philadelphia

“Sophisticated and varying vegan menu, including an impressive wine list.” Food & Wine named Vedge one of the 40 most important restaurants in the last 40 years: if not for its eggplant braciole – smoked aubergine, salsa verde, olives and piquillo pepper – then for its sticky toffee pudding. vedgerestaurant.com Ron Kaiserman


Monster Kitchen and Bar, Canberra

You’ll find a few dairy items at this “herbivore” hotspot, but the peri-roasted cauliflower, corn ribs and sweet-potato chaat are all solidly vegan. “Awesome setting, great service, and amazing vegan food.” monsterkitchen.com.au Katherine Anderson


Alchemy, Bali

With two branches in Ubud and Uluwatu, Alchemy’s “medicinal soups” and plant-based poke bowls are welcome news to Bali’s health-conscious crowd. A range of colourful vegan ice cream – banana, acai and mango – seals the deal. alchemybali.com Bernard van Bunnik


B12, Girona

Tofu Vegan, London

“Probably London’s worst-kept vegan secret”, this Upper Street institution is popular regardless of dietary restrictions. The menu is modelled on China’s ancient history of plant-based eating; absolutely everything is vegan. tofuvegan.com DUS

Teresa Carles, Barcelona

Teresa Carles’s restaurant near Plaça de Catalunya is a hearty affair: think plant-based “filet mignon”, jackfruit tacos and “chicken” pad thai. Finish with a choice of 10 desserts, seven of which are safe for vegans. teresacarles.com Globalsprawl

Every item on Oak’s menu has been chosen with the soil in mind – “we want to find vegetables that not only look and taste great, but also come from land that has been farmed properly, without chemicals or over-cultivation,” says the website. Most, if not all, options are – or can be – vegan, from the squash agnolotti to the thyme poached pear. oakrestaurant.co.uk Shely Manx 


A Ramanayak Udipi Shri Krishna Boarding, Mumbai

“In the big metro cities of Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai you will find great vegan and vegetarian restaurants – both high-end and inexpensive ones. In Mumbai, for example, is a south Indian restaurant called A Ramanayak Udipi Shri Krishna Boarding, which serves freshly cooked simple meals on a banana leaf.” 1st floor, Lakhamsi Nappu Road, near Matunga Central Railway Station, Matunga, Mumbai Srikala Venugopal


Terre à Terre, Brighton

Founded 30 years ago by two classically trained chefs, Terre à Terre has gone from a tiny vegetarian hotspot to one of Brighton’s most sought-after restaurants. Today almost all of the menu is vegan; this is the place for croquettes, frits and fried cauliflower. terreaterre.co.uk Shely Manx
