    Life's a Peach

    Tucked away in a small street, it's easily overlooked. Life’s A Peach is like stepping into someone’s cozy kitchen—if that someone were a passionate Italian chef who swapped dairy for creativity. Everything here is 100% plant-based, with focaccias and pastries that make you forget all about cream or cheese. Owner Vanessa cooks with love, using seasonal, local ingredients that make each bite feel like a little celebration. You don’t just eat here—you feel good doing it.

    In the city's heart, Copper Branch is your go-to for quick, healthy meals without compromise. Originating in Canada, this global chain brings power bowls, stacked burgers and vibrant smoothies to the heart of Utrecht. Everything on the menu is fully vegan, allergy-conscious and packed with whole-food goodness. Ideal for a breakfast on the move, a lunch break between meetings, or a dinner that fuels you without slowing you down.

    FLFL Utrecht

    Falafel may be everywhere, but rarely is it done this well. FLFL makes their golden chickpea balls fresh on the spot—crispy on the outside, soft and fragrant on the inside. Their pita wraps are loaded with crunchy veggies, tangy pickles and creamy sauces (yes, all vegan), and everything is served up fast, fresh and eco-friendly. Street food at its best: simple, honest, delicious.

    KLUTS koffie & vegan bakkerij

    Hidden behind one of the big attractions of the City (the Dom Church), Kluts is a little slice of vegan paradise. This artisan bakery and coffee spot is known for its heavenly sourdough, flaky vegan croissants and cinnamon rolls that should probably come with a warning label. Everything is plant-based, made with care, and served with a smile. It’s the kind of place you come for a coffee and accidentally stay all morning. Sunny terrace included.

The menu changes weekly and is fully vegetarian, with plenty of vegan options that will impress even your most skeptical dinner date. Dining here is an experience—refined, thoughtful and rooted in sustainability. Bonus: the artsy, green interior is just as beautiful as the food.

    Last Vegas

    Loaded fries, cheesy burgers, saucy nuggets and decadent milkshakes—and it’s all completely vegan. At Last Vegas, they don’t do subtle. They do fun, flavor, and full-on indulgence. Think comfort food, festival vibes, and enough garlic sauce to make your taste buds dance. It’s the kind of place you go when you want to treat yourself without the guilt. Messy hands guaranteed. Regret? Never.
