St. Catharines is the largest city south east of Burlington/hamilton in ontario. It's most famous for it's marine importance and many locks connecting both lake erie and lake ontario. Without this, marine travel from the interior great lakes to the ocean would be impossible. Unless, of course you enjoy going over the falls. There's a small museum near lock 7 I believe detailing more about the canal system.
Anyway, a veg traveler to the area will have the best luck here in St. Catharines. While there are no complete veg restaurants in the area, there are several that have veg options. Vegans may find it hard to dine out while in the area.
If you're looking for a romantic meal and a side trip you should go to Port Dalhousie. There you'll find the Spice of Life restaurant. Several small cruises operate from Port Dalousie in the summer and offer dancing as well as a tour. There's also a historic carousel though I don't know if it's opertational anymore.
In the neighboring city of Welland there's a yoga center called Pashima. They offer pot lucks sporadicly. More info can be found at www.lotusrisingyoga.com This website is run by one of the instructors.
The peanut mill will supply you with some essentials if you're planning an extended stay. Not too far from the peanut mill is a Zehrs with a large health food section as well.
It may not be easy as a veg traveler in the area but it can be done. Good luck!

Back to St Catharines Vegetarian Restaurants & Health Food Store Listings
Please help us improve this site...
Here, at HappyCow's Vegetarian Guide to vegetarian restaurants and health food stores, we strive to bring the most accurate information on Vegetarian Restaurant and Health Food Store listings to the internet. This site is made by vegetarian travelers for travelers (mostly), and we know how it is to travel across a new town in search of vegetarian food only to find that the restaurant no longer exists. We also know that some of the Vegetarian Restaurants and Health Food Stores already posted might be out-of-date, and we apologize for that.
Get involved! Whether you are at home or traveling, please contribute to this site!
