5 Best Vegan Restaurants Gold Coast Queensland
Here are our favorites and our top recommendations of the best vegan-friendly restaurants Gold Coast:
1. I Like Ramen Mermaid Beach
What can I say? I Like Ramen has both, a great vibe and some great, and well-presented vegan food.
Apart from a tonne of choices of ramen for the whole family, there are other yummy choices too.
We decided to try out the Panko Mushroom Bao, Tofu Satay Bao, Karaage Cauliflower, and a couple of plates of the Desert Bao. It was filling, yummy, and fun to eat.
Location: 2251 Gold Coast Hwy, Mermaid Beach QLD 4218
2. Cardamom Pod Southport
Cardamom Pod on Broadbeach is a very popular and quite busy restaurant and it is easy to figure out why.
The food here ticks all the boxes. From savory to sweet, there are plenty of choices to satisfy all pallets.
We opted out for some yummy kids pancakes with a tonne of maple syrup and fresh berries, the big breaky, and the mushroom gnocchi.
If you are in need of more sweet stuff, we did notice that they also had a nice variety of cakes and cupcakes as well.
Location: 3/3 Brolga Ave, Southport QLD 4215
3. Greenhouse Canteen and Bar Miami
Greenhouse Canteen and Bar Miami is another top-rated plant-based restaurant on the Gold Coast and another one that is filled to the brim with delicious food.
From Cauliflower Wings to Mushroom Cheeseburgers to Rocky Road Brownies, this place has it all. Whether you are big, small, or just a little peckish, you will definitely find something to please your tastebuds.
Location: 1916 Gold Coast Hwy, Miami QLD 4220
4. DokoDemo V
For our fourth choice of a vegan-only restaurant, let's take a look at DokoDemo V Gold Coast which also comes highly recommended.
We decided to take the 20-minute drive to check it out and it was OK. We tried out a plant-based burger, gluten-free vegan cheese pizza, and a plant-based roasted duck.
Location: 1908 Gold Coast Hwy, Miami QLD 4220
5. Tian Ran Vegetarian Restaurant Mermaid Beach
Although Tian Ran Vegetarian Restaurant has vegetarian in the name, it is a 100% Vegan Cuisine restaurant.
What's not to mention here. They have it all including rice dishes, vegan meat and seafood dishes, curry, hot pots and noodle dishes, and, of course, deserts, to mention a few. Yes, they also have a kid's menu as well.
This is a place where you might take a little longer to choose, as the menu is extensive.
Location: Shop 8/2468 Gold Coast Hwy, Mermaid Beach QLD 4218
