Eat your way through Rome!

Truthfully, traditional Roman foods are not superrrrrr vegetarian friendly. That being said, I truly haven’t had a problem as a vegetarian since moving here just maybe slightly less options (but I think I can speak for most vegetarians and vegans, by saying we are used to that!).

Prior to becoming vegetarian, I visited Rome as a vegan a few times, and at that point in time, I will say it felt limiting - vegan restaurants weren’t really a thing yet, so my options felt VERY limited and repetitive. Now, I would say that scene has definitely opened up a bit and I hear about some vegan spots throughout Rome.

I’ve also found most restaurants to be very understanding and helpful in making suggestions on what I can/cannot eat. So without further ado, here’s my list of foods to try and then some of my favorite all-vegetarian/vegan restaurants in Rome.

Please note: the restaurants below are 100% vegetarian and/or vegan. Of course you can find vegetarian/vegan dishes at all restaurants which is why I proved a list of food recommendations to try as well! 😊

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hannah

Nice to meet you! My name is Hannah, and I am originally from the United States, but have been living in Italy for over a year now. I have traveled to over 25 countries across 5 different continents. I absolutely love all parts of traveling - dreaming, planning, packing, researching, and then once you're there, experiencing and trying new things. It's a surreal feeling walking through winding small streets gazing at the colors and the architecture, taking your first bite of a new food, hearing the sounds of a different language, or admiring the different rhythm of a city you're seeing for the first time. My favorite trips are a blend of exploring and time spent relaxing (it is vacation after all!). Like spending the first part of the week driving around Portugal walking through different towns, or hiking and kayaking along the coast, then spending the next few days in the wine region doing tastings and vineyard tours. My Google Maps is filled to the brim with pins of restaurants, places to see, things to do, where to get aperitivo, and my favorite spots for a sweet treat or a coffee. These guides are a compilation of all my Google Maps pins and everything I've learned or experienced over the time I've been in Italy. I'd love to cut out some of your research and planning time with the help of my guides! Make sure you download the Thatch app
