Come here for the best vegan pizzas ever (because of the delicious homemade vegan cheese). You can also sit down here for lunch, there is room for up to 80 people inside and there is a terrace. And they’ve also teamed up with Karma Café for tasty bar snacks and drinks. Of course everything is vegan.

2. Rozey
Rozey is certainly our favourite vegan/vegetarian hotspot in Rotterdam. This is the very first restaurant in the Netherlands where you can eat unlimited vegan and vegetarian dishes all night for a fixed price. During week days you pay €32.50 (weekends costs you €5,- more) and you can order anything you like from Rozey’s menu; both food and drinks!
The extensive menu includes 55 dishes, all made with delicious sauces, fresh vegetables and meat substitutes. The owners of Rozey have opted for the best responsible products that do not contribute to damage to the environment and animal welfare. This unique hotspot is definitely worth a visit!
