good and popular - Edit
There is always at least one vegetarian option (and vegan as well I think).
Read moreIt is good. Almost a bit too spicy for me - but I'm also very weak.
Very cheap and very popular in Riga!

Love it! - Edit
Vegan options are nice , taste really good, love hummus, but as for the other dishes - I wish there would be less tofu added and spice ( too hot sometimes even when marked 4 out of 10) . But I am coming again!

Vegan options - Edit
Superb place, vegan options, nice people and very delicious - and it is even better idea to go there if you love spicy food. If not - you have got some non spicy deliciousness available as well. Recommended.

Great place! - Edit
One of the best places in Riga to have a meal. Democratic prices, huge portions and excellent taste. The place is not entirely vegan, but it has a wide choice of vegan options and there are clear marks which options ar vegan or vegetarian.

Nice - Edit
Finding a place to have dinner as a vegan can be a bit challenging when is snowing like crazy. We went to that place because we were few streets away and it was great. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much but I was nicely surprised. The lady spoke a perfect english and told us what was vegan on the menu, we took two different plates and both were great. The food is prepared in advance and they keep it hot so you get your plate when you order. Cool, when you are starving.

Pros: good portions, cheap, menu changes often
Cons: not for romantic dinner :)

The Dzircema street location (Stock Pot Too) is much better! - Edit
The first time I visited this Stockpot location, my wife and I tried the spicy roasted tomato soup (I believe) and the lentil stew. Both were too spicy and not good. The line-up was too long, only one person working the till+serving the customer at the same time. It is impossible to get a seat and all the spices in there make your eyes burn.
Read moreWe gave it a second chance a few weeks ago and it was worst. We tried out the Miso soup, which was too salty, and the Chili con Soya, which didn't taste good.
I strongly recommend the Dzircema street location. They offer the same food, but the atmosphere is much better. Better seating and nicer staff. Also, it seems like this location always has a non-spicy vegan option, which I really appreciate.
My classmates and I went to Stock Pot Too a few days ago. All of them tried out the vegan chickpea spinach stew and they all enjoyed it. It made me happy to see "omnivores" enjoying vegan food.
Pros: Always have a vegan options, Menu changes every day, Two locations
Cons: Serves meat and fish, A little bit overpriced, Too spicy

Hands down the best place in Riga for vegan food - Edit
This is the most frequently visited non-mainstream place by locals and foreigners in Riga. It's also my favorite place for lunch or dinner and I go there at least once a week.
Read moreThey have a different menu each day (updated every week on their website and facebook), and their wonderful hummus and tabbouleh is available every day.
If I'm hungry I usually get a full main dish (7ish eur) or half portion of the main and half portion of either of the soups (there are usually 2 VG ones), which is around 5.5 eur and you're full.
If you go during lunch time (11:30-14:00), be prepared to wait in line for about 20 minutes as the line usually continues out on the street.
Recommended: hummus and tabbouleh, curries (vegetable, peanut butter chickpea, etc), seitan, tempeh, chilli con soya, mediterranean stew, chickpea garlic soup, black bean soup, red lentil soup.
Would rate as 5 if it was possible.

Second-favorite in Riga - Edit
Delicious, international, often spicy vegan options cooked fresh every day but served in canteen style. It's always very busy around midday, so better come a bit later.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, spicy! Very friendly staff.
Cons: There's often a line out the door.

Great vegan choices for lunch! - Edit
I visited Riga for work and was lucky enough to find that our local office orders lunch for delivery from Stockpot. I had a delicious (and huge) potato, spinach and chickpea curry with rice and a side salad. I've heard that the place is very popular and regularly has long queues at lunchtime, so you might have to wait a few minutes to be served. They have a few vegan options each day, so definitely worth a visit if you're in the area - near the Art Nouveau district.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options (daily menu changes), Huge portions
Cons: Not 100 percent vegan

Poor customer service, overpriced food - Edit
The first time I went to Stock Pot was last year and I had trouble finding it as I had lost my piece of paper with the address. So I ended up walking up and down Gertrudes St for half an hour before finding it. When I arrived, I was very thirsty and so drank water from my water bottle which they didn’t liked, despite the effort I had made to find the place. So we did not get off to the best start, but anyway since I was there I decided to try to the food. It was ok and so I wrote a review mentioning they had vegetarian food, but I didn’t tell them, because I usually do not tell places when I write reviews. After that I went a few more times, and Richard, the owner, was pressuring me to write a review. I thought it was odd considering I had already written a review, but I didn’t mention that. He wanted me to mention things about their meat dishes, etc which again was odd because I had only eaten their vegetarian food. Frankly I thought their food was a bit expensive. They also do not have specials for lunch. When I went there, I would usually spend about 5 lats (without a drink) for my vegetarian food which was expensive for a cafeteria style restaurant; at almost all other restaurants in Riga including actual sit down restaurants, lunch costs less than that except for the most expensive ones and to spend so much elsewhere at lunch, one would have to go to a non vegetarian restaurant and order non vegetarian food. It is far more expensive than any other vegetarian place at lunch and one of the most expensive places if not the most expensive place at dinner for vegetarians.

Great veggie options at a low price - Edit
Small nice and friendly place. I had the two vegan options of the day which were a Malaysian laksa (= spicy noodle) soup with coconut milk and a "chili con soya" with rice. Both were very good and the soup was one of the best soups I ever had.
Read moreVery friendly service. Low prices.
I wish this was a "veg only" place ;-) ... then it would be perfect!
Pros: great food, nice people, low price
Cons: serves meat

The best food for vegans in Riga - Edit
In Riga there aren't many places for vegans to eat, furthermore - if you manage to find a place, probably you will be able to get only potatoes and cabbage salad.
Read moreBut Stockpot offers something fresh, so to say. Daily menu includes at least two vegan options that are clearly marked with letters VG (so you don't have to interrogate the staff about ingredients). Usuallythey offer something different every day from various cuisines (some examples: chilli con soya, tom kha, dahl, gazpacho), but every day they have tabbouleh + hummus (very tasty).
The atmosphere is really good, and the place is quite small. From the seating area you can see the kitchen and it is very clean and white. This bistro is family-owned - the owner himself is a chef there, and his wife serves food. They are very friendly (and speak English as well).
Full portion costs about 2-3 LVL, but you can get a half portion for half of that sum.
Unfortunately, they do serve meat, but at least you can't feel any smells from cooking it, and it isn't "displayed" there.
If you go there later in the day, you might be left with only one option, because the bistro is very popular and people tend to eat everything during the day :)
Pros: near centre of the city, very tasty, affordable
Cons: serves meat
