Friendly vegan café

At Vegginy , the main dishes are a vegan burger, sandwich of the day and a Buddha bowl with the option of soup or roasted potatoes on the side. The main dish portions are super generous and everything is fresh and homemade. Other things on the menu are smoothies, kombucha, cocktails, beer, vegan muffins and gelato—something for everyone. The café is small with six stools at the counter and three tables, so come early or just get lucky grabbing a seat. It’s popular, deservedly so.

The friendly chef and server speak English and there’s an English menu.
The entrance is next to the Vine Oak building. Look for the sign on the street level and take the stairs one flight down.

Pros: Generous portions , Tasty sauces and grilled tofu , International cuisine

Down a side corridor, look for the small cactus on the pavement!!

I found Vegginy on Instagram and decided to visit. They have a limited menu but very tasty and fresh.

big burger but quite expensive for 1500 (without fried or anything) but it was really tasty!

taco rice was only 1000yen but not as tasty as burger

Great food and friendly owners and cooks

We enjoyed the food and the good company in this small, nicely decorated restaurant just south of the Kyoto Imperial palace. The roasted rosemary potatoes were tender and the burger and Korean tofu bbq sandwiches were generous and packed with beautiful fresh vegetables. Be sure to get a muffin to go!

Pros: All vegan, English spoken

Good sandwich slow service

The banh-mi sandwich was very flavorful, we ordered it with local potatoes, ingredients are organic and staff is friendly. However, the service was very slow, when we arrived, there was only one other table occupied and they were already eating, our order took almost 40 minutes. We didn’t see this mentioned in other comments, so hopefully it was just a coincidence😄

Wonderful lunch spot!

The service was lovely. The food was delicious. The potatoes and the ginger ale soda were especially incredible! Really glad we stumbled upon this place.

Delicious and cozy

The entrance isn‘t that obvious (you have to go downstairs) but luckily we found it and there was enough space for us.
It‘s a small room, but the food is prepared right in front of you. They also had fresh vegan muffins.
It tasted amazing, was a bit pricy tho.
So if you‘re ready to pay a little more for a completely vegan experience this is the restaurant for you!

Pros: Many vegan options

Cons: a bit expensive

gorgeous staff, very good food

We went there for lunch and it was a blast! The staff - two lovely women - were so charming and lovely and gave us inside information for our vacation. Everything was prepared with much love and focus. The vegetable was incredibly fresh, I could have eaten a whole cabagge just like that.

Fresh food

Great place with multiple vegan lunch options. I asked for the sandwich of the day and wanted to modify it. This was no problem at all! Helpful staff and cute place.

Great food! Cozy interior. Haven't had a burger in a long time! It was delicious. The restaurant is hidden safely😅- go down the stairs

Amazing Homemade Food

The food here is outstanding. This was one of the best vegan burgers I’ve ever had. The patty was homemade from scratch, and so, so tasty. I also tried a bite of tofu Ban Minh, which was equally delicious. The soup was very flavorful and warming on the chilly, spring day that I visited. Couldn’t resist getting a freshly baked muffin for dessert and enjoyed every bite.

Massive tasty burger

Their burger is so big and delicious. Everything is organic and fresh. They make everything themselves, including tea. The burger was just so good and really hit the spot. Hard to find vegan food in Japan, let alone filling vegan food

Cons: Slow service but that’s ok, worth it

The burger is excellent

Really nice little place hidden in the basement of some building. I had read good things about the burger so I had to try. Great choice. I can’t remember ever eating a burger this tasty. The bimmibap was perfect as well. With some excellent 70’s soul music playing in the background, I can only give 5 stars.

Pros: Super tasty burger, Friendly people, English speaking, All plant-based

Cutest restaurant with great food and ice cream!

This is a very cute restaurant with super friendly staff, the entrance is a bit hidden because you have to walk down some stairs so be sure not to miss it as the food is delicious (one of the best Currys I've had!) and they have some amazing ice cream made with rice milk as dessert as well!

Burger for days

The burger was really good! My friend had the banh mi and he said it was very delicious too, especially the sauce. I think they had only one person in the kitchen which made the wait a bit longer.

Pros: Lots of veggies in the meals

Cons: Average waiting time

YUM! :-D

Bibimbap ¥1200
Soup ¥300-ish (forgot)

Vegginy is within walking distance from Kawaramachi station.
15 min by walk, calmer than Kawaramachi central!

The owner is a friendly lady, I really enjoyed the chat with her.

⭐️Taste
Crispy tofu with sweet sauce.... heavenly gooooood!
Kimchi was well fermented, very good.
I think they don't use MSG/yeast extract thingies in their
Kimchi and sauce. I had no symptoms. :-)

It's difficult to find safe restaurants in Japan so I'm really happy to know this place.

I'm quite satisfied!

Thank you so much for the lovely tasty dinner♡

Pros: Yummy★★★, Close to Kawaramachi, Lots of raw veggies=They have enough customers

Cons: No elevator(only if you need it)

Well-prepared delicious food! I’ll return here for sure.

I had a little bit of a hard time looking for this place, turned out it’s in the basement. It’s worth the wait though, I love how food are prepared with much passion.

Pros: Delicious, Affordable, Nice ambience

Cons: Limited choices, Might take time coz there’a only one server

Delicious burgers and muffins

Big, delicious but kind of healthy-feeling burgers, amazing muffins (different flavors every time but always delicious), lots of different dishes depending on what menu they have when you go (e.g. bibimbap, taco rice, ban mhi sandwiches), sides of soup, add salsa or avocado to burger, also some drinks. Located in the basement where the phone reception is poor but they have free wifi. I am pretty sure they take credit cards now.

Pros: excellent food never gets boring, convenient location, friendly staff

Cons: small restaurant means limited seating, few staff can mean long waits when crowded
