Visiting as a Vegan/Vegetarian in Toronto, Ontario

3 of 7

Sweet Jesus

Vegetarian

Sweet Jesus may be a local Instagram sensation, but it doesn’t make the ice cream any less tasty.

Does ordering cookie butter ice cream topped with corn flakes or chocolate brownies sound good to you? How about adding cotton candy to a classic vanilla? Yep, it’s that good, and many of their locations have vegan options, too.

Highlights: Krusty the Cone, vanilla soft serve topped with corn flakes.

Yam Chops

Vegan

This plant-based butcher and market is exactly the place every neighborhood needs. If you’re looking to stock up on vegan goods for your hotel or if you want vegan food to go, stock up on their Chick*n Shawarma, Szechuan Chick*n, Pulled “Pork” (Jackfruit), or grab one of their tasty bowls or salads.

Highlights: Loaded Kale Salad, Schezuan Beef Bowl.
