Best Vegan Restaurants in Coquitlam

"The Acorn, a small, quaint joint in the heart of South Main, or SOMA, could change your mind about vegetarian food's potential. Once an up-and-coming area, SOMA has now fully blossomed, and the 45-seat Acorn fits seamlessly into the mix; almost as soon as it was open, you knew it belonged here. The cozy bar area is a focal point, with great cocktails and a convivial vibe."

"If you’re looking for a special, slightly higher-end dining experience, Acorn is it. Serving the best in fine vegetarian and vegan dining, you’ll be treated to craft cocktails, excellent service, and delicious seasonally inspired dishes. Everything is beautifully presented and you’ll want to try it all (but definitely try the mushroom appetizer)."

"A bijou little nook in the up-and-coming South Main neighborhood, The Acorn is a haven of haute vegetarian cuisine. Chef Brian Luptak weaves foraged flair into bold, complex dishes, like smoked-onion kelp sauce on roasted king oyster mushrooms and..."

"Heirloom Vegetarian Restaurant first opened its doors in the heart of South Granville in 2012. Heirloom is a modern dining experience with an innovative current menu, located in a stunning heritage structure. Gus and Yogi, the owners, had the idea to create a socially aware concept that served vegan and vegetarian food where practicable, all materials are sourced locally and are organic."

"Heirloom has made a name for itself as one of the go-to dinner spots for vegetarians and carnivores alike. The space itself is bright and trendy, and the menu boasts a variety of vegetarian takes on the classics. Large salads, stone bowls, and comfort foods like the “not butter chicken” (SO GOOD!!) make up the diverse menu."

"Heirloom is a contemporary vegetarian restaurant, with consciously chosen ingredients. Because it’s vegetarian, not everything is vegan (some dishes contain dairy). Heirloom has two locations, one in South Granville and one in North Vancouver (or three locations if you count their juice bar!)."

"On any given night, this plant-based pizza parlour is busy slinging pizza after pizza. Virtuous Pie is a first for Vancouver because they use exclusive nut cheeses on their pizzas. When paired with quality ingredients and their three-day dough, you've got a winning recipe."

"Virtuous Pie is all about creating food that tastes great, is good for your body and supports a healthy planet. Our mission is to bring these values together as a delicious range of plant-based pizza and ice cream. We’re out to create positive"

"A pizza topped with buffalo sauce coated cauliflower that I promise most people would never even know is completely vegan."

"A post shared by Hanna McLean (@hannamclean_) on Oct 23, 2016 at 2:19pm PDT. Considered a staple for vegetarian and vegan eats in Vancouver for, well, what seems like forever, eating at Kitsilano’s The Naam is pretty much a rite of passage. Their calling card dish is their Sesame Fries with an add-on of Miso Gravy, but you’ll also find an array of noodles, bowls, veggie burgers, Mexican-inspired fare, salads, appetizers, and much more here."

"A post shared by The Foodventures Of Erin (@lesstalkmoretacos) on Feb 2, 2018 at 5:08pm PST. While the Naam has a number of items that range from the $5 to $15 mark, what helps this all-veggie restaurant shine is the hearty portion sizes. You’d be surprised at how much you can fill up with their plate of veggies; we highly recommend trying their fries with extra miso gravy."

"A Vancouver institution, The Naam has been around since 1968 and has a fully vegetarian menu. It’s also open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so there’s never a bad time to get tasty vegetarian food. Breakfast is served from 6 am to 11:30 pm and later on weekends."

"A post shared by C A R L I E P A X T O N (@carlieerinpaxton) on Jan 31, 2018 at 5:25pm PST. For any coffee-lovers out there, Wild Trails is the place for you. The owners make all their syrups in-house from organic ingredients and are passionate about providing vegan, chemical-free food and drink to fuel you on your hike."

"Its organic and full bodied but If you like it strong then get a 4th shot in the large."

"A post shared by Glory Juice Co. (@gloryjuiceco) on Nov 22, 2018 at 9:46am PST. Glory Juice is a staple in the city. With multiple locations, this is their first in North Vancouver, and you’ll find it stocked with (obviously) cold-pressed juices, as well as a full menu of nutritious food."

"A post shared by Green Moustache Lonsdale (@greenmoustachelonsdale). Enjoy 100% organic plant-based meals. This delicious eatery is located just steps away from the beautiful Jack Loucks Court so you can enjoy your smoothie or meal on their patio or take away to dine in the cheery blossoms."

"Whisk, a popular pop-up focused on non-dairy matcha drinks and eats, is now sharing digs with a Vancouver vegan bakeshop, Level V. The two forces are joined to offer the ultimate sweet treat destination for those who prefer to skip the milk and eggs in their baked goods and green tea bevs. You'll find things like plant-based croissants, cookies, and cake slices, alongside hot and cold matcha drinks, as well as smoothies, coffee, and more. And of course those matcha pastries from Level V are made with Whisk's matcha."

"Located on Abbott Street in the heart of Gastown, Jules Casual French Bistro is a cozy restaurant with an elegant bar and airy patio that serves French bistro classics in a quaint and romantic ambiance. Exuding a charming bistro setting reminiscent of Paris, the café serves a variety of authentic French cuisine with bold flavors and fresh ingredients in the French style of simplicity. Start with shareable appetizers like escargots with parsley and garlic butter or homemade country-style paté followed by entrées of seafood linguini and Brome Lake duck leg confit."

"Jules Bistro has been a Gastown staple for those looking for French cuisine since 2007. Born and raised in Dijon, France, owner and chef, Emmanuel Joinville, brings his skillful love of cooking to each dish he creates. After his apprenticeship and opening his own restaurant in Dijon, he ventured to Paris where he opened a small gastropub near the Eiffel Tower before moving to Vancouver and opening Jules Bistro."

"is a classic French bistro close to the Goldcorp Center for the Arts on Abbott Street, the thoroughfare that runs north to south through Gastown. The menu showcases real, authentic Gallic cooking and classic dishes."

"Since opening in summer 2017 under the experienced hand of Montreal’s Toqué alum chef J.C. Poirier, St Lawrence has been one of the city’s toughest reservations to score. Step behind the velvet curtain of this small dining room in Japantown and you leave Vancouver and its passion for clean, fresh, lean cuisine behind and dive into a delicious butter-hosed world where old-school French technique meets Québecois cuisine."

"Eating at St Lawrence is like being in someone’s fancy rustic living room in the Quebec countryside. But you’re not in Quebec, you’re in the Downtown Eastside in Vancouver. It’s the best Québécois food in Vancouver and on a scale of richness from air to butter, most of the menu is a croissant."

"A post shared by ⚜️St.Lawrence (@stlawrencerestaurant) on Aug 25, 2018 at 10:56am PDT. It may be a bit outside of your everyday grub budget, but there’s no denying that St. Lawrence is a top spot to dine in Vancouver. This eatery serves classic French cuisine with Quebecois inspiration."

"Fifteen years after restauranteur and BC Restaurant Hall of Fame inductee John Blakeley opened Bistro Pastis in Kitsilano. The cosy, upscale restaurant is still a favourite for classic bistro fare, like bouillabaisse and sole meunière, and its wonderful wine list is heavy on regions throughout France. Location: 2153 West 4th Ave."

"Big burgers with an even bigger taste, the Sunshine Diner resides in the heart of Kitsilano and is famous for its big burger platters. Come hungry, leave with leftovers for lunch tomorrow – that’s how big the portions are. Address: 2649 W Broadway, VancouverPhone: 604-733-7717"

"Located in Kitsilano, Sunshine Diner is the place to go for cheap breakfast food. Check out their blueberry pancakes and egg breakfast combos if you go, and say hi to the Elvis and Marilyn Monroe statues greeting you at the door."

"Douce Diner has brought from-scratch diner-style breakfast to the North Shore. Offering up breakfast and lunch fare daily, with some brunch-style weekend features, Douce Diner focuses on classic breakfast offerings and hearty, satisfying meals."

"These are challenging times, to say the least, and we hope you're well, staying healthy and finding new ways to support each other amidst this uncertain environment. At Douce Diner, we celebrate social gatherings and feel sad to see our tables"

"If you find yourself deep in the south, or you’re making a trip to Ikea in Richmond, then this is the spot for you. Nestled inside Northern Building Supply, the Northern Cafe is the most authentic diner on this list. Grab some lumber or hardware, then treat yourself to a burger or some chicken strips before you start your home improvement project."

"A post shared by Jill (@jillonjill) on Jul 26, 2017 at 12:11pm PDT. This hole-in-the-wall diner is definitely one to keep on your radar. It’s literally above a hardware store."

"Your first stop will be Capilano Suspension Bridge Park where you’ll take the swaying bridge across the canyon, before getting a taste of Vancouver’s temperate rainforest on the Treetops Adventure. A short stop further is the Capilano River Hatchery where you can see salmon jumping their way up the fish ladder to swim upstream, and then take an easy hike along the surrounding trails. Your final stop is Grouse Mountain – the Skyride gondola whisks you to the peak where you’ll find plenty of adventures waiting for you!. In the summer, visit the orphaned grizzly bears, Grinder and Coola, hike the trails, and go ziplining!"

As you walk hand in hand with your partner, be sure to check out some of the garden’s best features, including the Elizabethan Maze, the Stone Garden and the Scottish Shelter."

"The VanDusen Botanical Garden is one of the most beautiful botanical gardens I’ve ever visited, and one of my favourite Instagram-worthy spots in Vancouver. There are so many unique and colourful florals in the garden, like the ones in the photo above!"

"Home to the HR MacMillan Space Centre, the Vancouver Maritime Museum, the Museum of Vancouver, and a lively program of festivals and cultural events such as Bard on the Beach – Western Canada’s largest Shakespeare festival – Vanier Park is a beacon for arts and culture enthusiasts. But museums and festivals aren’t the only draws for this popular city park. Wide-open fields make this a great spot for kite flying, and the public boat-launching ramp is a great kickoff spot for water activities."

"Kitsilano's Vanier Park is a large expanse of waterfront grass (and beach) that is home to attractions such as the Museum of Vancouver, H.R. MacMillan Space Centre and events such as Bard on the Beach and the International Children's Festival."
