5 vegetarian restaurants that make you want to go green!

1) Munchies: the most street-food of them all
In the heart of Bordeaux, a stone’s throw from rue Sainte-Catherine, this small restaurant offers a wide range of junk food. Burger, hot dog, kebab (soy)… Street-food is revisited with a vegan twist, to the delight of gourmets. As well as being particularly good, the plates are beautiful, as is the restaurant’s decor, worthy of the most beautiful Instagram feeds.

2) Wild Note Vegan Burger: the most food-porn of all
Who said burgers were only for carnivores? Wild Note restores the reputation and the bun of veggie burgers. Falafel, soy, “breaded chicken”… Here, beware of appearances – they can be deceptive! Even the cheese is a “faux-mage” with a melt-in-the-mouth texture that has nothing to envy of traditional cheese. Barbecue sauce, fajitas, American, peanut butter… The burgers look so “real” that your omnivorous friends won’t even notice!
📌 20 Rue Sanche de Pomiers, 33000 Bordeaux

3) Monkey Mood: the most exotic
Just a stone’s throw from the Basilique Saint-Michel, this Indonesian-inspired restaurant promises to take your taste buds on a journey. The house’s two flagship dishes: the jackfruit burger, an Indonesian fruit with a texture similar to meat, and the gado-gado. What is it? It’s a mix of different vegetables, tempeh and rice noodles, topped with delicious homemade peanut sauce. In short, a real taste journey!

4) Ici la Terre: the most responsible
A true “fast-good“, this address offers small dishes full of good nutrients to fill you up during your lunch break. Vegan lasagne and couscous, coral lentil dhâl, vegan pad thaï, vegetable curry… But also protein-packed bowls: falafel, rice vermicelli and tofu, quinoa and tempeh, wild garlic pasta with white bean hummus. .. All to be eaten in or taken away, in disposable tableware made from biodegradable or recyclable natural fibers.

5) Mamacam: the cutest
In this pretty vegetarian AND eco-responsible canteen, everything is locavore, seasonal, homemade and made with love! Mamacam pampers you with tasty, healthy dishes. Roasted eggplant and zucchini with pesto, tomato-peach-feta salad, quinoa and soft-boiled egg with honey feta, falafel semolina with sesame sauce… We don’t know where to put the fork. And what about the desserts! Chocolate pear muffin, chocolate-sweet potato brownie, matcha muffin & raspberry, Lebanese flan with pisatches and orange blossom… A nugget!
