Friendly ambience

In the quarter "La Madalena" is placed this vegetarian restaurant, with anarchist-cultural ambience (even it has a large library) and spacious room in two areas: bar with tables and more tables in the back. All food is vegetarian with some vegan options. Good quality and size of all food. Very friendly service. Inexpensive prices.

Pros: Quality of food, Ambience, Price

Nice

I've gone there for many years, a very good place. However, some years ago was even better. You shouldn't go without taste his "tortilla de patata", vegan, of course.

Nice veg food

We went there a Wednesday for lunch so they only offered the closed menu, which is different everyday. We asked for the two starters, the two mains and the two desserts. The two mains were, by far, the best of the menu, especially the lasagna, which had amazing taste and texture.
In their open menu they offer a wide variety of food, from toasts to kebabs or even pokes. It is a place for everyone.

Pros: Almost everything is or can be done vegan

Cons: We couldn't order from their big menu

"They could've spat on my face and I would've still been happy"

^^My boyfriend's comment of the place. So very delicious and meaty chorizo and even better albóndigas (balls?) de seitan. Also a fairly good toast but didn't compare to the main courses. Best vegan food in spain so far!!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Amazing quality, Affordable

Leuk alternatief restaurantje

Leuke plek in de universiteitswijk. Leuk gemengd publiek. Alle gerechten zijn vegetarisch en heel veel vegan of optioneel vegan.
Alles is zelfgemaakt. Leuk om te proberen is de vegan chorizo met een goede smaak en mooie structuur.

Pros: Alles vegetarisch en veel vegan opties, Leuke sfeer, Zelfgemaakte gerechten

Amazing, very complete eating experience

This place has it all; top food, great beer, friendly staff and decent prices!

Fully recommend the Spanish omelette, as I saw it walking in I assumed it wasn't vegan as it looked too good to be true! But it is and it tastes even better than it looks!!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Loads of beer choice , Friendly staff

Cons: Burger buns could be better

¡¡ MUY RECOMENDABLE !!

Pedimos la hamburguesa CHIPOTLE (riquísima). Como nos gusta bastante el picante les pedimos más salsa y nos dieron a probar 'Al sur del infierno' de Salsas Sierra Nevada y ya nos ganaron :)

El Pad thai muy rico también.

Además un trato de 10, nos recolaron en el interior porque llovía y se adaptaron a nuestras necesidades.

Pros: Food!! Comida!!, Trato, Ambiente

Fantástico

Uno de mis restaurantes favoritos en Zaragoza. Opciones veganas bien indicadas en la carta. Entre semana hay un menú del día muy rico y barato. Productos locales y de temporada, además tiene una pequeña tienda de productos vegetarianos.

Recomendado

The atmosphere is great, the people who attend are very nice and the food is great and also affordable. I don't give it 5 stars because it is not vegan.

El ambiente es genial, las personas que atienden son muy agradables y la comida está buenísima y además es asequible. No le doy 5 estrellas porque no es vegan.

Pros: Muchas opciones veganas, Barato

Cons: No es 100% vegan

So, so good

There are many vegan choices in this vegetarian restaurant, all properly labeled in the menu. This time I went for a main and a dessert, which I had started to miss in the last meals: an amazing vegan chili with seitan and a piece of a delicious and light chocolate cake. Lots of tables but call ahead and reserve because it gets packed quickly.

Pros: many vegan options, awesome dishes, nice staff

Cons: still using dairy and eggs, gets packed soon

Edozein momentuan joateko aukera ona

Lekua hartzea erraza da. Kantitateak bahikoak dira l: pertsona batentzako pizza bat eskatu nuen eta horrekin afalduta joan nintzen. Hainbat aukera begano ditu.

Pros: Kebab-a oso lortuta dago

If there were another star I’d add it!

VEGAN - I love this place. It seems like a bohemian hangout cafe with people milling about outside, sipping coffee and eating tapas. I have been here for the tapas and also with friends for a 2 hour dinner. The food is fantastic!! The decor is simple
But very clean. Art posters, local underground events posted on the billboard. But the food is five star vegan and veggie.

Pros: Tapas! And meals! And Salads! And vegan chocolate, Nice price, Local meeting place for artists

Cons: You have to fly to Zaragoza, Staff is too good looking and smart., No seriously can’t think of any cons

Delicioso, maravilloso

En pleno corazón del barrio de la Mardalena, barrio alternativo de Zaragoza. La birosta es un restaurante /bar acogedor y lleno de vida. Sus platos, todos veganos o vegetarianos, están deliciosos y no son nada caros.

Delicious vegan food in Zaragoza

We went here twice for a 3 course vegan lunch, everything was delicious and it was not expensive (about 10 euros per person). The food included creamy soups, vegetable lasagne, vegetable and chickpea stew, stir fry, chocolate cake and baked apple with ice cream. They also do vegan tapas here which is also very tasty. The place has a great atmosphere and you can easily spend a lot of time here.

The restaurant has a mixture of vegetarian and vegan options, so make sure to say that you only want the vegan options.

Pros: Delicious food, Good atmosphere and friendly staff

Pinchos muy ricos

Local y trato agradables, con mesas altas y zona de comedor. Los pinchos aunque no eran todos veganos, eran una gran mayoria, preguntarlo en todo caso.

Pros: No es muy caro y la comida es rica

Cool vibe, completely vegetarian

This place had a cool political vibe, and seemed to be where many locals come to drink. Everything was vegetarian, a shame it wasn’t completely vegan but there were many options available. Would recommend!

ok place

Nice place to have tapas. It's not fully vegan but there are many vegan options. The food is good, not amazing though. I recommend the dips, interesting combinations. I think the desserts could be improved. I had canolle but it wasn't the best. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Pros: lots of vegan options, kind staff

Cons: the venue is quite ugly

Great food but a bit strange atmosphere / neighborhood

Not located in the best part of the town we’ve found this place via happycow. All tough the food is fine, we did not like the atmosphere because the service was not customer oriented. If you are a rocker and like tattoos, this is your place.

Pros: Great homemade pizza, Food tastes good

Cons: Customer orientation, Strange atmosphere

Buenísimo!

La comida es muy buena y los precios acordes a la cantidad de los platos! El ambiente es bastante alternativa y los fines de semana por la noche hay bastante jaleo pero bien! Mejor ir entre semana eso sí! Pero vamos que muy recomendable!

Pros: Comida y precio

Cons: El jaleo ruidoso

buen ambiente, excelente comida

Una de las pocas veces en que vou a un restaurante vegetariana y no sé qué debo pedir! Quería probarlo todo.

Recomiendo las tostadas, en especial la de tomate seco. El ambiente es acogedor y los camareros extremamente simpáticos. El precio está más que adequado:

Pros: ambiente , precio , comida

El Brote Vegetal

While this is indeed a vegetarian restaurant (in the back), it's also a cafe, bar, and tiny vegan grocer (in front). My review is for the El Brote Vegetal, which is the name they call the front area.

We ordered soya cafe con leches (which is spanish for soy lattes). They were smaller than the lattes you get in the states. I'd consider them more capaccino-sized, but they were very tasty.

We also purchased some violife cheese, some soyrizo, and some flavored baked tofu to take home. The fridge where they have vegan foods for sale is small, but very inclusive.

They didn't have wifi, so we didn't stay long, but I would definitely recommend this place to any vegans passing through Zaragoza.

Pros: delicious coffee, wide selection of vegan mock meats and cheeses, easy to find location

Cons: no wifi, not much seating in the bar / cafe area
