Vegan food is gaining popularity and is no longer just for the seasoned tofu eater or those who only live on a lettuce leaf. Vegan food is accessible, creative, and full of flavor for anyone who loves to explore new culinary delights. The Hague is home to a growing number of restaurants that serve the most delicious plant-based dishes. Whether you’re in the mood for a quick lunch, an elaborate dinner, or just a coffee with a vegan pastry, there’s something for everyone.
Z’AHA deli
Owner Justine has a clear mission: to let people experience, through her passion for food, that plant-based eating is incredibly tasty and anything but dull and boring. Z’AHA deli is the only ‘vegan-friendly take-away’ (yes, quite a mouthful) that The Hague has to offer, as far as we know. Glass display cases filled with colorful and delicious treats—salads, sandwiches, and the most delightful sweets. All vegan. All delicious. And honest.
So, grab a tasty container here, strap it to your bike rack, and head off. The great thing is: Z’AHA deli is just a stone’s throw away from the beach, so cycle through the dunes and enjoy a delicious vegan lunch with the best view you can imagine.

De Sushimeisjes
Vegan sushi? Absolutely! At Sushimeisjes, the plant-based options are endless. Order a vegan sushi box, individual veggie rolls, or delicious side dishes. Lisa and Nicole, the cheerful ladies from The Hague behind Sushimeisjes, share a great passion for sushi—and you can taste it! In our opinion, it’s the best sushi in The Hague.
You can enjoy their sushi at two locations: Prins Hendrikstraat 96 & Valkenboskade 622. Both spots have a cozy interior and a nice terrace, perfect for enjoying your sushi outside if the weather allows.

Bistro LOFT
The reason why many residents of Vruchtenbuurt and beyond regularly go to church: Café Loft. This charming neighborhood restaurant, located in the old Jerusalem church, offers plenty of vegan options on the menu.
How about a vegan burger or pizza? With vegan cheese! Pad Thai with plant-based chicken. And vegan carrot cake for dessert. Our mouths are watering just thinking about it. Plus, it’s a lovely spot to sit in the church garden or indoors next to the tall, colorful church windows. Head over to Pomonaplein!

Vegetarian cheating
To shake things up, we’re rounding out this list of vegan restaurants with three The Hague treasures where you can enjoy delicious vegetarian dishes. Not entirely vegan, but still…
BLOW Beach House
Cycle a bit further towards Kijkduin, and you’ll find quite a spot! BLOW is a beach club for water sports enthusiasts, sun worshippers, beach walkers, and sea admirers—and everyone in between.
On the menu: a delicious green salad with zucchini, peas, mint, burrata, and yuzu, or pointed cabbage with charred leeks, chive oil, lentils, and dashi.
Tommy’s en Zuurveen
The amazing 3, 4, or 5-course chef’s menu at Tommy’s and Zuurveen is also available in a vegetarian version. Enjoy it in the cozy, intimate restaurant or on the drinks boat moored outside on the canal.
Think of tomato tartare with miso or crispy broad beans with smoked almonds. Simply delicious!
Baardman
Have you discovered this hidden gem on Theresiastraat yet? Baardman is perfect for an extensive lunch or dinner. Our vegetarian favorite? Eggplant with chickpeas, spicy yogurt, and tomatoes or an always satisfying pasta!
Bart and his team will spoil you, and you’ll roll home with a well-filled stomach.
