Eating out with the family when someone’s vegan needn’t mean a sad side salad for one. These vegan restaurant picks around Singapore put proper feeds on the table – the kind where plates get passed, nobody leaves hungry, and you get to be the champ who found a spot that works for everyone. Whether it’s a birthday dinner or a weekend treat, these places show up with real generosity.
This is one of 7 guides in Best Vegetarian & Vegan Food in Singapore — start there if you would rather compare before you commit.
VeganBurg
VeganBurg set up shop in a Jalan Eunos shophouse as the world’s first 100% plant-based burger joint, and it hasn’t slowed down since. Soy or mushroom patties get stacked with fresh greens, vegan egg, and vegan bacon, dressed with house sauces that taste anything but second-best. The Creamy Shrooms burger runs on a dairy-free cream sauce, and the Tangy Tartar brings chi’kn nuggets into the party. Seaweed fries on the side are a shiok move, and everything lands in biodegradable packaging. Budget about $12–$15 a person for a burger and side.
VeganBurg feels like the kind of spot you hit when the crew wants something fast and familiar – nobody at the table is going to miss the meat. The burgers come piled high, which means plenty for hungry teenagers, and the vibe is relaxed enough that a bit of noise won’t raise eyebrows. Grab a table, order extra seaweed fries, and let everyone tuck in.

VeganBurg
If you’re trying to convince a meat-loving friend that plant-based can be satisfying, this is the spot. It’s also great for a quick, no-fuss dinner before heading home – no one leaves hungry.
Greendot
Greendot is Singapore’s largest meat-free chain, with outlets scattered across the island – you’ve probably walked past one without realising. Their thing is Asian comfort food done with plant-based ingredients, and the menu marks vegan options clearly so you don’t have to play detective. The laksa comes loaded with shiitake mushrooms and a rich broth that holds its own. Customisable bento sets let you pair sesame rice with sweet and sour soya nuggets or Gong Bao mushrooms – hearty portions, nothing precious. A filling bento set goes for around $8–$10.
Greendot is the worry-free option when you’ve got a mixed group and no time to overthink. The bento sets let everyone pick exactly what they fancy, so a fussy eater can customise away while you pile on the sesame rice. Aircon, spread across the island, and fast enough that a meltdown clock doesn’t stand a chance.

Greendot
Anyone who wants their vegan food to taste properly local lah, without fuss. Also brilliant for a solo weekday lunch that leaves you full but not sluggish. Editor’s note: if you’re exploring beyond vegan, we’ve also put together a guide to Vegetarian Restaurants in Singapore that might come in handy.

When you’re planning a family meal and need something meat-free, check out the vegetarian restaurant spots to bring your parents.
Herbivore
Herbivore sits inside Fortune Centre – that old-school building near Bugis which has quietly become a treasure box for vegetarian and vegan eats. The kitchen pulls off Japanese and Western plates using organic produce, all vegetarian and a good number that are vegan. Soba noodles, bento sets, sushi – the portions are generous and the flavours stay clean and honest. A main dish sits around $12–$18. Lunch and dinner daily are split into two seatings, so time your visit.
Herbivore is that steady, quiet corner where you bring the parents or the in-laws and everyone leaves impressed. The bento boxes come out substantial, so if the kids want to share off your plate, there’s actually enough to go around. The Fortune Centre setting adds a bit of hideaway charm, making the meal feel like a proper discovery.

Phone: +65 6333 1612
Hours: Daily 11:30am–3pm, 5pm–9:30pm
Herbivore
If you’re after a sit-down meal that feels a bit more refined but still casual, Herbivore scores. It’s a solid choice for date nights when one of you is vegan and the other is just curious – no one has to compromise.
Whole Earth
Whole Earth on Peck Seah Street was Singapore’s first Peranakan-Thai plant-based restaurant and has held a Michelin Bib Gourmand every year since 2016 – the kind of quiet consistency you don’t need to brag about. Penang Rendang with shiitake mushrooms, Tom Yum soup, and olive rice come to the table layered and fragrant. The rendang is damn shiok, the sort of dish that makes you forget there’s no meat. Sharing plates and mains run $16–$25.
Whole Earth makes a family celebration feel effortless – the Peranakan-Thai plates are built for passing around, so even the pickiest eater at the table can find something to love. The rendang and olive rice arrive fragrant and generous, and the room hums with the kind of warmth that turns a dinner into an occasion.
Address: 76 Peck Seah Street, Singapore 079331
Phone: +65 6221 6583
Hours: Daily 11:30am–3pm (last order 2:30pm), 5:30pm–10pm (last order 9pm)
Whole Earth

Weekends get busy, so call ahead. For more plant-based options in culturally rich corners of the island, have a look at our Vegetarian Restaurants in Little India, Singapore guide.

nomVnom
nomVnom is a bistro on the third floor of Clarke Quay Central doing allium-free vegan fast food, and the menu is massive – over 20 burger builds, plus pasta, soups, salads, fries, dim sum, sweet and sour “chicken,” and laksa. It’s built for people who want options and don’t want to leave hungry. Burgers and mains hover around $10–$14. Some tables catch a bit of the river view, which is a nice bonus on a lazy weekend.
When the crew ranges from a ravenous eight-year-old to a teenager who eats like a bottomless pit, nomVnom steps up with a menu that defuses any argument. Burgers, pasta, laksa, dim sum — nobody leaves hungry. Grab a table with a bit of river view and let everyone dig in. The casual, aircon vibe means you won’t feel shag after a long meal.
Address: Clarke Quay Central: 6 Eu Tong Sen Street, #03-105/106/107, Singapore 059817
Phone: +65 6224 4996
Hours: Sun–Thu 11:30am–9:30pm (last order 9pm); Fri–Sat 11:30am–10:30pm (last order 10pm)
nomVnom
Good for groups where dietary preferences are all over the place – there’s enough variety that nobody needs to settle. Also a handy stop after a walk along the river when you want something filling without a heavy meat hangover.
Kind Kones
Kind Kones is the plant-based ice cream parlour you’ll find inside Forum and across a few other spots – all-natural scoops, dairy-free, egg-free, mostly gluten-free. Flavours like matcha, acai, and chocolate come through clean and creamy, without that icy texture you might expect. A scoop or cone runs about $6–$8. It’s the after-dinner treat that doesn’t make you feel like you’ve just unravelled the whole day.
Kind Kones turns the post-dinner ice cream run into a feel-good win – the scoops are creamy and generous, and because it’s all plant-based, you can say yes to seconds without a second thought. The Forum outlet is stroller-friendly, so even the littlest crew member gets in on the action without a fuss.
Address: B1-27, 583 Orchard Rd, Singapore 238884 (more locations here)
Phone: Forum branch: 90108557; main office: +65 96178413 (other branch numbers here)
Hours: Forum branch: 12pm–9pm daily (other hours here)
Kind Kones
Perfect when you’re wandering Orchard Road and want a cold one that actually lasts in the Singapore heat. It’s also a lifesaver if someone in the group has dairy allergies – nobody gets left out of dessert.
WellSmoocht
WellSmoocht is tucked into a Jurong East neighbourhood and is part bakery, part café, fully vegan. The menu covers waffles, ice cream, pizzas, paninis, and burgers – the kind of line-up that lets you have a full meal and dessert without ever having to ask “is this vegan?” Closed Mondays and Tuesdays, so plan around that.
WellSmoocht is the kind of neighbourhood gem that makes a west-side outing worth the drive – you can have a full lunch followed by waffles and ice cream, all under one roof. The space is small but the menu is mighty, so it pays to pre-book a table and warn the kids they won’t need dinner after.
Address: 319 Jurong East Street 31, #01-58, Singapore 600319
Email: [email protected]
Hours: Wed, Thu, Sun 12pm–9pm (last order 8pm); Fri–Sat 12pm–9:30pm (last order 8:30pm); Mon–Tue closed
WellSmoocht
If you’re in the west and tired of travelling to town for decent vegan food, this is your spot. The waffles alone are worth the trip, and the pizzas surprise you in the best way.
Blu Kouzina Siglap
Blu Kouzina Siglap, operating since 2010, is a Greek restaurant with extensive plant-based meze, though not exclusively vegan.
A Greek kitchen that bothered to develop a vegan tzatziki worthy of the name is already a mild novelty in Singapore. Here, entire meze spreads can go plant-based without anyone at the table noticing the gap. The dolmades arrive with a level of herbaceous precision that makes the whole exercise feel less like a concession and more like a strategy. Bring a crew that orders by pointing at everything.
The room hums with the easy chaos of a large table passing small plates. Ordering is best done by democratic pointing at the meze section; every dish lands as a communal negotiation. Graze at the pace of arrival, which is leisurely but steady. Snag a corner seat by the window for the full afternoon-light effect, and let the spread become an event. Nobody is keeping score on who eats what, so the plant-based options vanish without note — which is, of course, the point.
Products or Services
Plant-based meze such as hummus, vegan tzatziki, and dolmades, alongside fresh salads with Mediterranean herbs and a curated selection of Greek wines and spirits.

- Website: Blu Kouzina
Meze are made for sharing, so roll up with a few friends. The vegan plates stand beautifully alongside the wider Greek menu, and that plant-based tzatziki with warm pita is a strong opener. Come on a balmy evening and let the Mediterranean wines stretch the night out—it’s the kind of meal that resists being rushed.
Aroma's
Aroma’s, in Little India, is an Indian restaurant with a variety of vegan options.
An Indian kitchen in Little India that does not blink when you ask them to hold the dairy—they have a dedicated vegan-friendly approach. The curries and dals arrive without fanfare, just honest spice and the quiet confidence of a place that has probably been swapping ghee for oil long before it was demanded. Dairy-free desserts end the meal without a sense of sacrifice.
Step off the Little India street and into a space where the menu’s vegan corners need no explaining. There’s a brisk, no-nonsense rhythm to service: you point, they nod, and soon the table fills with dals that steam with legitimate heat. Sharing works best when you order a few dishes and let everyone swipe at will. Go with friends who appreciate the unremarkable miracle of a dairy-free curry that tastes like it was never meant to have ghee.
Products or Services
Vegetable curries, lentil-based dals, and dairy-free desserts, with dishes customizable to individual preferences.
Contact Information & Location
- Location: 60 Race Course Road, Singapore 218567
- Operating Hours: Mon-Thu 11:30am-3pm & 6-10:30pm; Fri 11:30am-3pm & 6-11:30pm; Sat-Sun 12-11:30pm
- Website: Aroma’s on Facebook (their previous dedicated website is no longer live)
This Little India stalwart knows its way around a vegan thali without making a fuss. The vegetable curries rotate daily, and the dals are always dairy-free—just tell them you’re plant-based and they’ll steer you right. It’s buzzy, occasionally chaotic, and ideal when you want a meal that feels like a proper open-air outing.
Vatan Se
Vatan Se, established in 2012 on Tanjong Katong Road, serves Indian cuisine with a vegan-friendly menu made without artificial colors or MSG.
The real oddity here is what they leave out: no artificial colours, no MSG, none of the shortcuts that sometimes haunt restaurant Indian food. The result is a cleaner, clearer lentil dish that still lands a punch. The menu is vegan-friendly by design, not adaptation, which means you can order with a straight face and share plates without negotiating substitutions.
The place feels quietly deliberate, from the under-lit room to the careful plating that arrives without a hint of the garish colours you half-expect. There’s a hush that discourages the rowdy table, making it more suited to a crew that listens to the food. Order a few lentil-based plates and share them with the reverence usually reserved for blind tastings. The absence of shortcuts lends the meal a clarity that is, in its own way, startling.
Products or Services
Vegetable curries, lentil-based dishes, and freshly baked breads; catering available for events from intimate gatherings to large corporate functions.

- Website: Vatan Se
Vatan Se is the kind of dependable Indian restaurant where you book a table for ten without stress. Their lentil dishes and vegetable curries come in generous portions, and everything is made without artificial shortcuts—so the flavours land clean and honest. The freshly baked breads beg to be torn and shared; this is a meal best enjoyed with a crowd.
My Awesome Cafe
My Awesome Cafe, opened Valentine’s Day 2014 in the former Chung Hwa Free Clinic in Telok Ayer, offers health-conscious dining with vegan-friendly options. See our cafes-for-their-food guide for more on this venue.
It occupies the shell of an old Chinese free clinic, which is either ironic or entirely fitting for a place that builds sharing platters around clean proteins and vegetables. The decor still carries the bones of its past life, lending meals a strange, solemn gravitas. Your group ends up eating vegan-friendly sandwiches in what was once a waiting room, and somehow it works.
Eating vegan sandwiches in a repurposed Chinese free clinic is the kind of Singaporean absurdity that somehow feels perfectly natural once you’re seated. The room retains its medicinal bones — high ceilings, old tiles — but the sharing platters arrive with a casual, canteen-like efficiency. Pile your table with clean proteins and let the setting do the rest; the lingering sense of institutional care makes every bite seem proactively healthy.
Products or Services
Fresh salads, customizable sandwiches, and sharing platters with vegan-friendly options, alongside specialty coffee, organic teas, and wines.

- Website: My Awesome Cafe
A converted clinic turned breezy cafe—there’s a certain charm to that. Grab a long table with your favourite people and work through a sharing platter of vegan-friendly salads and sandwiches. The speciality coffee and organic teas make it easy to linger, and the wines lean into an unhurried afternoon that might just turn into dinner.
Sansara
Sansara, at the Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel, is a North Indian fine dining restaurant specializing in Awadhi cuisine with a vegan-friendly menu.
Awadhi cuisine rarely makes room for vegans, so a fine-dining kitchen that produces a vegan Ghee Palak Laashuni—without actual ghee—is a quiet act of defiance. The soya chaap stands in for meatier textures with surprising authority. It’s the kind of place where your group can pretend indulgence was the plan all along, while the kitchen quietly swaps out butter for something less expected.
The hushed hotel dining room sets a stage where each plant-based Awadhi dish arrives with understated ceremony. The pace is deliberate, ideal for a group that treats dinner as an event rather than a transaction. Let the server take the lead; their quiet recommendations steer you toward creations where the absence of dairy isn’t a compromise but a quiet flex. Sharing here is a slow, almost formal affair — the last piece of soya chaap is always the most contested.
Products or Services
Vegan North Indian dishes including Soya Chaap Handi Masala, a vegan version of Ghee Palak Laashuni, and vegetable-based curries.

- Operating Hours: Not published — contact the restaurant directly to confirm current hours.
- Website: Sansara
When a normal weeknight won’t cut it, Sansara brings a layer of finesse—without leaving plant-based diners an afterthought. The vegan Soya Chaap Handi Masala is deeply spiced and satisfying, and the reimagined Ghee Palak Laashuni shows real kitchen care. Dress up a little; the riverside hotel setting makes the whole evening feel like a small occasion.
A Matter of Eating Companions
Blu Kouzina Siglap presents a long list of meze that happen to omit animal products, which makes group ordering a straightforward exercise in pointing at the menu until the table is covered. My Awesome Cafe, on the other hand, operates on a quieter frequency, with bowls and toasts designed for a lunch that doesn’t demand a committee decision. The difference is less about cuisine and more about the level of coordination required from your dining party.
If the objective is a lively, share-everything meal where a missing fork won’t halt proceedings, Blu Kouzina’s Mediterranean plates supply that communal momentum. For a catch-up where you need to hear the other person speak, My Awesome Cafe’s scrubbed-down aesthetic and focused menu reduce the variables. The Indian establishments along Race Course Road and Tanjong Katong occupy a middle zone, offering curries that are best tackled with a companion but won’t collapse if you arrive alone. Choose based on how much you want to negotiate with the people across the table.
How to choose
Think first about the kind of meal you’re actually craving, not just whether it’s vegan. Craving a burger? VeganBurg and nomVnom both do the job but with different atmospheres – Eunos for a casual shophouse feel, Clarke Quay if you’re out with a group. When you want something that tastes like the Singapore you grew up eating, Greendot and Whole Earth are the natural picks; the former for a quick bento or laksa fix, the latter when you’re ready to sit down and share dishes over a longer evening. Japanese-leaning? Herbivore is the only one in the list that does sushi and soba properly. For dessert, you’ve got Kind Kones for an Orchard pit stop and WellSmoocht for a more substantial café visit that can easily become dinner.
Most meals here land between $10 and $25 per person; Whole Earth tips a little higher because of the sharing plates and Bib Gourmand positioning, while the burger joints and Greendot stay firmly in casual-dining territory. If you’re eating with omni friends or family, pick a place with a big menu – nomVnom and WellSmoocht cover so much ground that no one feels like they’ve drawn the short straw.
| Restaurant | What to Order | Price Signal | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| VeganBurg | Creamy Shrooms burger, seaweed fries | $12–$15 | Converting sceptical friends, quick solo dinner |
| Greendot | Laksa, customisable bento sets | $8–$10 | Everyday local comfort without the meat |
| Herbivore | Soba noodles, bento, sushi | $12–$18 | Japanese-vegan date night, generous portions |
| Whole Earth | Penang Rendang, Tom Yum soup | $16–$25 | Special occasions, Peranakan-Thai fix |
| nomVnom | Burger variety, sweet & sour “chicken” | $10–$14 | Groups with mixed diets, riverfront lunch |
| Kind Kones | Matcha, acai, chocolate scoops | $6–$8 | Dessert runs, allergy-friendly treat |
| WellSmoocht | Waffles, pizzas, paninis | $12–$18 | West-side café hangout, full meal + dessert |
Summary
Whether you’re going fully plant-based or just eating more vegetables, these seven places show that vegan dining in Singapore has moved far beyond sad salads. You can have crispy burgers, a steaming bowl of laksa, a Michelin Bib Gourmand dinner, and ice cream after – all without a trace of dairy or meat. Your next great meal is just a reservation away.
