Eating vegan in Munich
For a long time now, veganism has no longer meant having to poke around in a green side salad - luckily! Even the capital of Weißwurscht is slowly but surely developing into a place to eat with an animal-free diet!
From seitan schnitzel and vegan pizza to sushi and cheese specialties - we love the many restaurants in Munich where you can enjoy a delicious meal.
It's Veganuary: join in and try out a purely plant-based diet for a month in January. Not only is it healthy and sustainable, but it's also great fun and good for your appetite.
Here are our favorite locations as a starter set for vegan January:
Vegan feasting: Café and delicatessen OM NOM NOM
Café OM NOM NOM is a small vegan paradise in Sendling that all fans of a plant-based diet should know about. What is particularly exciting is that the café is located in the premises of a former butcher's shop. However, the two owners of OM NOM NOM, Marlen and Daniel, are not at all concerned with pointing a finger, but rather with good food. We'll just say grilled cheese sandwiches, homemade kimchi and, of course, the vegan cheese counter. Nom nom nom.

Emmi's Kitchen now has three branches in Munich: in Glockenbach, in Giesing and, since October 2022, also in Schwabing. Last year, a new branch opened not far from Munich, in Augsburg. You'll find real soul food on the menu. How about a pulled jackfruit burger with homemade BBQ sauce and vegan cheddar or a Beyond Cheese burger with - you guessed it - a Beyond Meat patty and extra vegan cheese? And if you fancy something sweet, we recommend the American pancakes with fresh fruit, maple syrup and homemade granola.

Everything banana - at least when it comes to ice cream and banana bread. That's the motto at Keep Bañana in Sendlinger Tor. Behind the store are brothers Markus and Thomas Mayr. Both spent a long time working as software sales representatives in Germany and abroad and came into contact with a wide variety of cultures and cuisines. They have packaged their experiences into an idea: saving ripe bananas from the wholesale market and turning them into vegan, sugar-free and gluten-free soft ice cream. This and other good things can be tasted here!

Crispy steak in dark beer sauce? Wild mushroom ragout or hearty stuffed roulades? Yes, you heard right! And absolutely animal-free. The bodhi serves the most popular Bavarian delicacies in a cozy pub atmosphere. It not only tastes authentic, but also incredibly good.

Fancy vegan baked goods and a stroll around the Bahnwärter Thiel site. Then head to Bageri, the perfect place for vegan delicacies. They not only serve vegan cinnamon buns, but also all kinds of other treats made from sourdough and delicious coffee with oat milk. And just like that, you have the perfect vegan snack.
SIGGIS v/gan dine & co - Gärtnerplatzviertel
80469 München

Breakfast is served here until 2 p.m., as well as snacks for in-between meals and sumptuous main courses such as soy schnitzel with mushroom sauce and croquettes. In summer, the homemade lemonades are refreshing and in the colder months, the "milk", coffee and tea specialties are warming. Special emphasis is placed on animal welfare, environmental protection and sustainability. And you can taste it!
Erbil's Vegan & Mediterran

There is also plenty of seating so that you don't have to gobble down your meal standing up, but can enjoy it in peace. And of course, every dish here is also purely plant-based!
Max Pett
Max Pett can justifiably be described as one of the vegan highlights in Munich. The menu offers everything your heart desires: salads, burgers, ravioli, ... the list goes on and on.
