Great Korean street food! - Edit
Friendly staff! Generous portions and very affordable.
Read moreLove the soy chicken. The udon noodles are good but get a side dish!
The tteteboki is super spicy.
Not the healthiest cuisine but good for a quick bite.
Only 2 people in kitchen so if there are many orders it can take a while to get your food!
Cons: outdoor seating only

Closest thing to vegan Korean street food - Edit
This is basically a little stall where they cook the best Korean street food. It's located inside a shopping building so may be kind of hard to find, but worth the search.

It’s just amazing that this restaurant exists and you’re able to try Korean street food as a vegan! We tried out most of the dishes on the menu, because they’re really cheap, and everything was delicious. A must-visit for vegans (and everyone else) in Seoul :)

Here you can have Korean street food, like tteokbokki, kimbap, or ramyun for a reasonable (not so expensive) price. Tried all of them and they were so delicious, that ate here multiple days.

Cheap and decent food - Edit
Probably the best place to try all traditional Korean street foods. Prices very good! The flavors are hit or miss, but maybe that’s my personal preference against most Korean food. Check this place out!

No complaints - Edit
Absolutely fell in love.. ttokbokki tastes little less junky and less addictive than normal street ttokbokki, so some people might not like this, but I’m satisfied. My favorite manu : soy chicken, fried dumplings, gimbab.

This place is tiny but Mighty! Look up for the sign, reading " MARU DESSERT". All menu items are vegan, so you can eat everything with 100% confidence.

Very affordable, delicious food - Edit
Went there one evening when we were in Seoul. Because it was quite a chilly evening we sat at one of the tiny tables inside. The lady was so friendly, she brought us a portable heater and placed it next to our table. She offered us blankets too. Everything we tried from the menu was excellent and prices are affordable. Very friendly and helpful staff. Only downside was that the tables are almost too small to fit all the food.
Read morePros: Fully vegan menu, Reasonable prices, Friendly staff
Cons: Can get cold when it‘s chilly outside, Rather small tables

Veganised Korean Street Food - Edit
I love the opportunity to try different food, especially from different cultures. Korea's street food is normally not vegan-friendly which is why this place is a must try! Plus it's cheap! I highly recommend anyone to try the different dishes. I tried three - udon, kimbap, and dumpling. I love how vegan is advertised in the name. Easy to find too! The cooks are so nice! Friendliest Koreans I met on my trip.

Aweosme little place - Edit
Everything is vegan and really tasty. Place is often packed with locals and the athmosphere is good. We've tried everything on the menu and our favourites have been the kimbap, udon and tteodbokki. Everything is prepared after order and is super delicious.
