My favourite vegan place in Seoul after living here for over 6 months. Excellent prices and options, staff are friendly (and speak English if you need it), it’s perfect. Try the soy chicken, it’s honestly some of the best mock meat I have ever had. For me, the dumplings are also a must as it’s so hard to find veggie ones in Korea.
Read moreI’ve had almost everything on the menu and they’ve never let me down - if you have to go to only one vegan place in Seoul, choose this.

Excellent - Edit
Very nice restaurant, with a translated English menu. To find it you have to enter in a kind of gallery shop, the shop is on the ground level.
Read moreThere are less than 10 seats but so far I was always alone (maybe cause of coronavirus's season). The price are really cheap, 3k wons for the kimbap! You have kimpaps, fried dumpling, udon, ramens etc. I really like trying Korean foods in their vegan versions! It's really good and I can't wait to try again the kimbap. I'll try to taste all the menus before I leave Korea. It's one of my best discovery so far. Everything is vegan and the owner speaks english. I think you can take out. There are also some drinks available. Your order comes very fast!
Pros: All vegan, English menu , Very tasty food, Cheap and fast!

Great vegan street food! - Edit
We stumbled upon this vegan street food stand in almost by accident. I was so excited to be able to enjoy korean street food and be sure it was vegan.
Read moreIt's a food stand which meant we had to sit outside despite it being February, but they had plastic sheeting up and space heaters so it wasn't too cold.
Between the three of us we ordered Tteok-bokki, odeng, tofu gimbap, fried dumplings, fried soy chicken and spicy ramen. All together everything cost less than US$15. And it was SO GOOD! Fresh, spicy, flavourful, filling and cheap- everything you want from street food.
Pros: Delicious, Cheap , Friendly
Cons: Only outside seating

Great place!!! - Edit
We tried the tteokbokki, tofu gimbap and spicy fried chicken and it was all delicious! The servers were so friendly and the food extremely affordable!! Although we were seated outside, there was a windshield, heaters and blankets we could use to keep us warm during winter, which was a nice little touch. We will definately be coming back!!

Warm Service and Great Food. - Edit
The two ladies there were the absolute sweetest. They kept making sure that I was warm enough since the weather was pretty cold and nasty. I loved the food, and I can’t wait to go back and try more things off the menu.

Small very nice Place - Edit
Small place found inside a mall
Read moreThe food was very nice and cheap!
I recommend ordering a variety of different dishes and share
We had gimbap, ramen, fried dumplings and the chicken
especially the ramen and the dumplings were very very good
The ramen come with a nice little curry flavor so it probably depends on your taste if you like that
We found it a little bit hard to find but with google maps and the pictures that are already uploaded you’ll find it😄
Pros: Cheap, Yummy
Cons: Hard to find, A little bit cold because you kind of sit outside
