Delicious and super friendly

The staff here was phenomenally friendly.

I tried to pick something to eat that I don't see often back home, and so ended up with the African Peanut Stew, which was legitimately delicious. Rich flavor, lots of veggies and protein. 10/10 would order again.

The menu is very Western, which is not a knock, but if you are only here for a short visit and are looking for vegan versions of Korean food, there are other places really close by that will scratch that itch. If you want healthy, vegan Western style food, make sure to eat it here.

So nice we have been many times!

We loved Plant! It is located upstairs and is small but we were able to find a table for our party of five. I ordered a peanut soba noodle salad and it was flavorful, cool, fresh…just what I needed on a hot day. The second time we ordered takeout to feed our family back at the hotel and it was successful even though our guests were not vegan—they all enjoyed the food, too. One of our favorite places on our trip.

October 2024 update:
Easily my fav vegan spot in Korea and we’ve been several times in 2022, 2023, and 2024. We ordered a bday cake for pick up when we arrived 10/4 then we ate at the Itaewon location once and at the Yeonnam location once. The soba bowl is always good but the hummus and roasted squash salad was amazing too. So was the slice of carrot cake I brought back to our apartment. Plant and its team are just the best. I bought a shirt this year, too! lol!

Great western food

If you would like to have a western style dish or a classic breakfast option this is the place to go. The portion sizes are big. They serve vegan fast food, sweets and healthy meals. We absolutely loved their cakes!

Pros: All vegan , Western style breakfast options , Big portions

popular vegan cafe- Plant🌱

I got a matcha cold foam latte- loved it! and also the chick’n burger with a side of fries.
the burger was a bit difficult to eat since the chick’n was hard to cut, but still enjoyed it overall. non-vegan friend got a bean burger and also liked it!😄

Lovely staff and vibes, food was really tasteless

Had the roasted veg wrap, the portions are massive (way too much) and the veggies are wet, cold and the sauce is really not nice. Really gutted because the wrap looks incredible but is really lacking in taste.

The cauliflower bites though were delicious!!!

Pros: Heaps of options , Lovely staff , Cute vibes

Cons: Wraps are huge and tasteless , Would be good if the staff warned about portions , Lots of food waste

For when you're craving western food

The place is very cute with a lot of plants. The menu has burgers, wraps, salads, with very good ingredients and flavors. We ordered two different burgers and a dessert. They tasted very good and served the purpose of having a break from traditional korean food. There was no one local, only foreign workers and clients, so it felt like I was out of Korea for a moment which I disliked (very personal).
