10 vegan food options that deliver in Metro Manila

1. Ang Kusinà

Vegetables aren’t expensive, so why does veganism sound like a luxury? Ang Kusinà challenges this stereotype, offering a humble lutong bahay menu for the mainstream market.

This vegan store specialises in weekly sets. You can order a 4-day set (₱840) or a 6-day set (₱1,260), both of which come with two meals per day. The a la carte menu, priced at ₱150, serves up to two people. Not bad for healthy and delicious food!

2. ButBetterPH

It seems like ButBetterPH is set on becoming the best vegan food option in Metro Manila for chicken lovers. Their bestselling veggie chicken is made of deep-fried jackfruit and comes with a sauce of choice. For ₱370 per dozen, their servings are generous enough to feed around six people!

ButBetterPH also sells delectable vegan mac and cheese, burgers, and beverages. (I’m totally in love with their chicken burger — it tastes just like McDonald’s, but fuller!)

3. Cosmic

Probably the most challenging part of going vegan is the amount of delicious Filipino food you’ll have to forego. Cosmic is here to save us from that. Offering a wide range of Pinoy vegan food options, Cosmic has managed to recreate the iconic isaw, kare-kare, bagnet, adobo, caldereta… You name it, they have it.

Indulge in pizza, minus the guilt — this is what the first all-vegan pizzeria in the Philippines stands for.

A vegetarian restaurant in San Juan, Lucy in the Sky Café is well-loved for their divine vegan cakes and beverages. Their heavily garnished palabok and sisig also keep customers coming back for more!

Bacon, lechon, sisig, and bopis — how does one live without these? The answer lies in Vutcher, a vegan food stall that serves plant-based alternatives for all the meat-lovers out there.
