Vegan Guide to Philadelphia
Philly has probably the best vegan food of any city we’ve ever been to. It was ahead of the game too, when we first visited Philadelphia together in 2016 they had amazing vegan options, even before the plant based movement is as popular as it is now. We tell everyone that Philly is vegan mecca, because it’s the truth! There are vegan options at nearly every single restaurant, bar, food market, & hole in the wall. You can literally go into any place in Philly and find something vegan yet affordable and that’s what makes it so amazing.
