The best around for a vegan snack - incl. Seaweed croquettes!

Best place around the beach.
All hot drinks possible with plant-milk. Cheaper than the cow-option. Several clearly indicated vegan options. Only serves vegan mayo. 👏
Nomet seaweed croquettes => highly recommended. Not cheap, but normal beachbar prices. Dogs aloud. Fully smoke free terrace!

Pros: Several options, Clearly pushing in a vegan direction, Cool spot with big, smoke free, terrace

Cons: Not completely vegan

Great find

This restaurant was recommended to my by someone who had no idea I'm a vegetarian and I must say it was a great find at the Belgian coast, where my options seem to be limited to fries and (if I'm lucky) a penne al arabiata. This place has plenty of vegetarian and vegan options that are NOT boring.

Like many other people I tried the seaweed croquettes and found them to be less sea-ish than I'd expected, more like a meat croquette (without the meat of course). Tasty certainly, but if you wanted a sea flavor you might be disappointed.

My partner had a Mexican burger that I stole a bite from and that one was also tasty. I'd love to visit again to try more options.

Pros: Variety, Chill vibe, Right on the beach

Cons: A bit pricey

Cool spot - food was ok

The view is very nice - you can sit on a sofa and look at the sea. We had vegan snacks and they were good but a little bit overpriced in my opinion.

Tasty but crazy expensive

The seaweed croquettes are great but way overpriced. Same goes for the expensive burger, which comes with some corn chips instead of a small salad or some fries. But you get the best view in Wenduine to go with your food...

Het bezoeken waard.

Wat ik echt tof vind, is dat de opties met havermelk goedkoper zijn dan de reguliere opties! 😀
Het bord aanwezig in de inkomhal wijst op hun vegan gerechten én met de vermelding waarom vaker voor vegan kiezen belangrijk is.

Pros: Laid back feeling, Uiteraard het uitzicht

Zeewierkroketten

De zeewierkroketten waren lekker maar we vonden dat deze weinig ‘vis’smaak hadden wat wel een beetje spijtig was voor de prijs.

Good food, bad coffee

The vegan burger was ok, the coffee didn't taste good. One additional star for the location.

We had problems with the temperature of our coffee machine. Now it's on point so the coffee should be much better. 😊

Nothing better than a veggie burger

It could come with vegan French fries but it wouldn't be so healthy. Loved it

Pros: Delicious, Beautiful view and mood

Cons: Nothing

Unfortunately, we're not allowed to sell fries😄but we do aim for healthier options in general!

Vegan burger on the beach

Cosy surfers bar right on the beach, offers a tasty vegan burger clearly marked as vegan on their menu. They also have a few vegetarian options ( veggie spaghetti, veggie pizza, salad bowl and a 'boschampignonkroket' ). The soup of the day was vegan - and delicious- when I was there and the salad bowl can be made vegan on request. They also have the vegan magnum on their menu.

Pros: Friendly staff, Right on the beach, Good food

Cons: Limited vegan options, Busy at lunch time on sunny days
