What vegan options can you find in Seville, Spain?
Seville is an enchanting, beautiful and very relaxed city that I highly recommend you go to when you visit Spain.
It’s the fourth largest city in Spain, after Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia. These cities have plenty of options for vegans, and Seville has also become more vegan-friendly over the years.

Vegan Restaurants in Seville
Veganitessen
Veganitessen is a vegan place within a food market called Mercado del Arenal, with some tables and chairs, open at lunchtime.
I went there a couple of times during my visit to Seville and everything was delicious. They offer a large selection of vegan food – burgers, pizzas, lasagna, sandwiches, soups and lots more. The vegan cakes were fantastic!
Vegani
This stylish restaurant offers homemade Andalusian cuisine using ecological and local ingredients.
The restaurant’s menu changes with each season, ensuring fresh dishes and ingredients.
Balino Yoga Café
A centrally located, yoga-themed cafe, has a chilled atmosphere. It serves Buddha bowls, fruit bowls, smoothies, toasts, and desserts.
Vegan Rock
Located in the Alameda de Hércules area, one of the hip neighbourhoods of Seville, Vegan Rock offers vegan versions of classic Andalusian tapas, burgers, pizzas, and nuggets.
Arte y Sabor
Arte y Sabor is not a vegan or vegetarian restaurant, which I wouldn’t normally go to, but a local friend suggested we meet there, so we did. It’s a lovely, friendly place and they do have some vegan and vegetarian options on the menu.
It’s located in Alameda de Hércules, overlooking the large, tree lined boulevard that will make you feel as laid-back as the locals.
Tips for vegans in Seville
Have access to a kitchen
If you find a vacation rental in Seville with a kitchen, it would be easier to keep your vegan diet. I stayed with locals in their apartment, so I could cook for myself on some days of my visit and didn’t have to rely on restaurants.
Meal times
Pay attention to the opening hours of any restaurant or cafe (or in fact any business) in Spain.
Many restaurants in Spain are closed in the afternoon for siesta and also on Sunday.
Some places are open all day long, but always check before you go.
Meal times in Spain are a bit unusual – lunch usually starts around 2PM and goes on until about 4PM, and dinner starts around 8PM.
Plant-based milk
You can easily find plant-based milk such as soy, rice, and almond milk at any supermarket in Seville. They’re inexpensive and widely available. Note that most supermarkets in Seville are not open on Sunday.
Traditional tapas may be accidentally vegan
Tapas like spinach with chickpeas (espinacas con garbanzos) and fried potatoes with spicy tomato sauce (patatas bravas) are often vegan-friendly.
It’s best to ask before you order any tapas to make sure they’re free from animal products.
Use Happy Cow
When you travel anywhere as a vegan I always recommend using Happy Cow, my favourite vegan app. It lists all vegan and vegetarian places and places them on a map for you.
