Yummy - Edit
I really enjoyed both the mac and cheese and loaded fries! The only thing is that it’s a little bit bland if you’re someone who likes stronger flavours

Great vegan haven. - Edit
Ive been to both Plant restaurants in Seoul and had great experiences. Although a bit pricy, the food tastes amazing. and the staff is lovely, their staff are knowledgeable on allergies and usual questions a vegan might have.
Read moreAlso, loved them for being so kind to my sister who is a celiac, we mentioned our worries about cross contamination and they were very kind in making sure her food was safe to eat.
I didn’t take pictures as I came in so hungry both times. But lovely presentation for all dishes.

no allium free option at all - Edit
the staff are friendly and atmosphere of the cafe is not bad. one thing i note is that usually vegan places would be okay to remove the alliums (replace certain sauces or just don't add certain items) such that those who don't take alliums can enjoy the food also. unfortunately the staff told us NONE of the items can be made allium-free. obviously the burger can be made so without the onion mayo... we believe they just prefer not to go thru the hassle.
Read morePros: nice vibe
Cons: expensive, no allium-free

Great food, great atmosphere - Edit
This hip café is in a very lively area, sells a good choice of food and an even better choice of desserts.
Read moreMy husband had the beetroot burger with mushrooms which he praised highly.
I had the tempeh wrap with peanut sauce, which was packed with veggies and pickles, the tempeh was soft and there was a lot of sauce.
We shared the chilli cheese fries and they were nice but the sauce was quite watery which made the chips at the bottom soggy.
The dessert was a caramel apple cake and it was delicious.
Well worth a visit, keeping in mind they have a break between lunch and dinner.

Vibey and delicious - Edit
Absolutely love this place. Visited multiple times as it was close to our hostel and the only vegan place around, haha. The lighting and decorations make this feel like an elevated hang out spot. The open kitchen concept is also cool and looks super clean which is always nice to see. My partner got the Philly cheesesteak and loved it! I The hummus plate was also super great.
Read moreAlso tried the coconut cream pie which was amazing and the chocolate Cherry cake.
The vanilla latte was a 10 and my favorite coffee I had in Seoul. So creamy!

Hongdae Vegan Hangout - Edit
Summer oasis, Plant Yeonam. This branch of Plant sprouted during the pandemic, when most other restaurants were closing down, and Plant was growing. I’ve visited 12-15 times and have seen steady tweaking of menu, atmosphere, service and such. Smiles from the staff, who you can see bustling around, encourage the feeling it is fine to stay awhile and hang out. Located at the back gate of Hongdae, it is open, spacious, bright, light, and breezy. I’ve tried most of the dishes - today was the chili cheeseburger. Tho I am not generally a big burger fan, I enjoyed it for its flavor, the fresh-made bun, and heartiness, though it was a bit squishy. High-quality ingredients, consistency, and cakes! My favorite will always be the luscious hummus salad, but there are a variety of bread-based or pasta pasted dishes. I’d like to see more refinement with rice-based and whole foods dishes, but generally, this is the place to come to get what you don’t cook at home. It’s hard to make it to the cakes, but great to have that option. Big eaters, omnis, and vegans can all be satisfied here. I’m a big fan of the raspberry smoothie. I noticed that the side salad with the signature yummy creamy Plant sauce has grown bigger, with more seeds. It’s a bit artsy and Hongdae, fresh uni-vibe style. You will be well fed. Beware the breaktime on weekdays from 3-5, but overall it’s a solid dependable option.

Yeonnam got some new menu items! The mac cheeze and fava bean stew for the win! (At both branches). 😋
Also, they put a sign up restricting visits of over 2 hours..

My go-to! - Edit
My go-to vegan restaurant in Seoul! It's slightly pricy, but the portions are large and the ingredients are high quality so you get what you pay for! The food lacks a little flavor, hence the 4 stars instead of 5. The atmosphere is nice, and it usually has a good amount of people! If you have a party of 3 , then I recommend calling and making a reservation. Most of the tables are for 2 people, so if the larger tables are filled, you might have to wait outside for a table. The staff seem to be mostly foreigners that can speak English, and there is an English version of the menu so it's very easy for English speakers. Also, they have so many vegan desserts that change every day!!!
Read morePros: Easy for English speakers, Large portions, Large variety of food
Cons: Expensive (but large portions + high quality), Not much seating for groups. Make a reservation!

Awesome western vegan food in Hongdae - Edit
We stopped by for a bite after a long train ride from Busan and was so busy we had to wait outside for about 20 minutes to get a table.
Read moreThe food was good and arrived quickly. It had good flavours although did overly rely on sauces for flavour.
Was definitely grateful to find some vegan food in Seoul however!
Pros: Fully vegan, Nice vibe and atmosphere, Staff speak good English
Cons: Busy at peak times, had to wait outside in cold, Food was quite saucy, Counter service style restaurant

Delicious - Edit
Wide selection of very-nice sounding meals. Went with the plant cheeseburger and fries with one of the IPA's. Very delicious, however they did take a while (>30 min) to make the meal compared to others getting theirs before me (when they ordered after I did).
Read moreEdit: went again as it is the closest vegan hangover food. Had the Philly cheese steak and a banana split. Came out much quicker, must've been a bad night last time. Both the sandwich and shake were delicious, highly recommend.

Nice interior and friendly staff, but tasteless - Edit
I visited the other branch in Itaewon before and was disappointed, but I wanted to give them another chance and also try another dish. I love the interior and also the location. A big plus: many sauces (ketchup, spicy sauce, mustard)mand salt and pepper for self service. Water and wifi available. There is a cute patio if you want to eat outside. Lots of plants inside as well.
Read moreThe menu is quite similar to the one in Itaewon (the same plus 2 or 3 more options).
I ordered the plant Caesar tofu wrap.
The wrap has a great size for 12k and was freshly prepared. It comes with some chips on the side. The wrap itself was tasteless. The tofu consisted of 3 or 4 pieces in total. Mostly it was filled with salad (which is good) and some croutons (odd - does not fit at all); the Caesar dressing looks great but also had no flavor at all. This cafe could have potential if they would use some spices and season things. Looks aren’t everything. Food should be presented nicely, but most importantly is the taste. At least service is great here and not rude and unfriendly like in Itaewon. Won’t come again.
