50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Bear

“Id have taken a picture. But being here for the 2nd time I just could NOT wait to dig in. before I knew it (10-20 seconds ish) later it was all gone. I cant believe how fresh and absolutely FANTASTIC this food is. Nothing so far in Delaware compares in price to plate ratio to food and drink quality. I almost dont want to post this because I dont want it to change. Just ridiculously delicious“

“Good , but recently I saw a team member bringing a fork to a customer , but n his way he dropped the fork ,pick it up and gave it to the customer.(cross contamination) A manager was behind him but i don’t think he was aware of it . Excellent service fast and nice people ,quiality is good 👍“

“Menus were nowhere to be found and the wall doesn’t break down what’s in the salads anymore the girl kept sending us to the back to get menus that weren’t there they should be readily available but other than that salad works is awesome and always has been“

“Their pad thai is a must try. Highly recommend. 👌“

“Great family owned restaurant here ! My family has had the pleasure of eating at a few of their locations. We can’t recommend them enough. They always have a happy go lucky staff. Fast and efficient. The food is always great. The fish and chips is my go to but the wife loves The chicken marsala. Always Satisfied“

“The bartenders there serve people that are obviously visibly drunk and falling off their stools! When I brought it up to the bartender, she said I misread the situation and it was none of my business! So, I went to the manager and she repeated pretty much the same statement like it was scripted because it continuously happens! I wonder if the owners are aware of these actions because honestly the bartender and manager should be fired for those kind of attitudes as it's illegal to serve visibly impaired patrons at a bar! Sad! 🤔😔 I actually have to add, it's a shame that the staff isn't the best, because the concept is great, the events are fun and our group which usually numbers 10 to 15 people enjoy hanging out there for the events and the food which is reasonable and pretty good! 💝😎👍“

“The staff does a great job and the food is amazing, I’m in love with the Chikpea tuna wrap, they never miss at this place!!!!“

“Absolutely love this place the environment the staff and everything about it! The food always is incredible. I highly recommend for anyone that needs a healthy fix!“

“I came to Metro Diner this morning off the humbug. I was starving & was craving some chicken & waffles from somewhere close in the area. Surprisingly the chicken was very seasoned and crispy. The waffles were also very tasty and soft. The strawberry butter mixed with their signature hot sauce was also pretty good. Alicia was my server. She was such a doll :) Her knowledge of the menu is impeccable and she took very good care of me. If you are in the Newark area and would like some tasty and quick diner food, go there & ask for Alicia <3 Thanks Alicia will be there again real soon !“

“Ole Tapas has come to our event for two years in a row and they are definitely a favorite. The food is always prepared to perfection and the staff is always so kind and professional. I personally always recommend the street tacos. We are so grateful for the hard workers over at Ole Tapas.“

“I love banh mi here. The taste and flavor are very authentic and fresh. My favorite is banh mi heo quay with crispy pork skin. The kitchen and store look very clean and new. Great customer service as well. Will definitely come back.“

“I love the tacos in three amigos Mexican grill, the bar and the color in all restaurant, great restaurant“

“Great ice cream. The farm provides a nice backdrop for trips with family or friends. The ice cream is very fresh everyone there is nice and treat your ice cream with care so you never get broken cones or liquid ice cream. This place is very family triendly and has a decent amount of seating but the parking can be a little tight and the lines get long but it's very worth it“

“The Mercury Café is a lovely vegetarian café/restaurant in the charming historic town of New Castle, with plenty of vegan options. We ordered the vegan Pulled-Oat “Pork” Sandwich, which was excellent. The cocktails were great too. Updated from previous review on 2025-11-29“

“So I had never tried an Açaí Bowl, but my mini me Kalena raves about them. Last week she introduced me to the one of the most incredible food experiences. If you like them or if you want to try it, run don’t walk ( or drive quickly 😊) to The Juice Joint 2.0!!! The food is great, the owner and her staff are amazing and the atmosphere👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽“

“I've been there four times, 2x Lunch, 2x Dinner. Food, Ambiance, Service, each somewhere between Very Good and Excellent.“

“Had a lovely dinner with the family, early on a Sunday evening.
Our first time at Kid Shelleen's. It was much bigger than it appears at first. We had our two granddaughters with us, one is very vocal and not great at getting food into her mouth. We were conveniently tucked into the back corner where we didn't bother any other patrons, thanks to the wonderful staff. So thankful for their kindness and attention.“

“Ali Baba has amazing food! love the Salmon and Kabobs! They participated in the Newark Arts Alliance Taste of Dessert competition again this year, and their Baklava took 1st place - the best!“

“The 🌶️ ramen…my fav!! Delicious!“

“The small plates were delicious and beautiful, nice atmosphere and Maria our server was outstanding. It was a very enjoyable dinner and they made my husband's birthday special.“

“Yum!!! 3 roll special The house bread was to die for Love the lighting and atmosphere Will be back for sure!“

“One of the most delicious meals I've had in a long time!! Daily Chef pasta is a must! The alfredo sauce and vodka sauce...soooo amazing!!! The Brussel sprouts are scrumptious!! And the long hots...a must! We will return with friends!!“

“It was nice to have dinner inside a restaurant. You could see the care of clean up, the guests were spaced nicely. Our meals were fresh, full of flavor, and enough for a lunch the following day. Our server Pat was her ever charming self and mixes a great basil lemon cocktail.“

“We’re frequent customers at the Montvale, New Jersey, store, but this was our first visit to the Christiana (Delaware) First Watch. Spectacular food and spectacular hospitality from our server, Vanessa! I always get the ‘Traditional’ breakfast and a blueberry pancake. So yummy! My wife loved her ‘Farmhouse Skillet Scramble’! Hope we see you and your friends again, Vanessa! - Jim & Laurel Lambert“

“We loved the food though the setting is in a very crowded farmer's market. We do not like any Indian restaurant in the north of Delaware, but this one proved to be very consistent in taste in the last 3 times we tried lunch here. Thali is our favorite“

“Great location and great food.“

“Great vegan/veggie joint. Pretty high prices but the food is all made in house and tastes great. This area is expensive for businesses to operate so it makes sense. Fresh produce is key to their flavor. Pretty decent service, although you can definitely feel it when they're busy--the staff tries their best and have great attitudes. Highly recommended local business. The ambiance is pretty neat but not too remarkable, a bit of modern and a bit hippie all at once. Larger parties any struggle to find seating unless they give a notice prior to the day they want to be served.“

“Great dogs and fries. Their dogs go out with the nicest people. Great retro vibe. Easy take out. My favs are “all the way” and chili cheese and raw onion.“

“Went in on 2/16 @6pm and the staff was AMAZING! I wish I got everyone’s names… but one I did catch was Key. She was such a sweetheart. And the food ? My boyfriend and I are obsessed, he said “we HAVE to come back here and bring our friends” lol

We’ll be back 🫶🏼“

“Chiwa Bistro location along the sidewalk near The Christiana Mall (not inside the mall) has very professional staff members that work fast paced with accurate food preparation. Inside Chiwa Bistro, the store has cool unique interior decorations as shown in this reviews pictures. Keep up the good work and Thank you for giving me a cool experience.“

“I love the fact that they have delicious vegan options! They are also very friendly here. My daughter loves it as well.“

“Originated from Bklyn, NY; have lactose intolerance and tried this new tab. Wanted a Sicilian slice so bad for the last 2 decades, tried Amalfi. Definitely a good square, but can't say it's like NY, being honest. Probably NYC water in the end. Will definitely go back, thanks for the square, it was worth it!“

“Everything on the menu is worth it. It’s so good! From the food, to the drinks, to the service!“

“I went with my group on a Thursday which was a very light evening which allowed my group to enjoy our whole dining experience. Our server had time to explain the menu and make recommendation to our group that included a 4 year old. Why is this relevant? Because, she gave her the same respectful service as she did the adults. Thank you. Now let's get to the food. I had the Chicken Picatta. I had to take the picture because at the first bite I new it was about to be destroyed. I left nothing on the plate. The Impossible Sloppy for those who need a vegan option also got a thumbs up. The food comes out hot hot! No one complained! I will be back the next time I am in Delaware.“

“I really liked how they explained their different coffee roasts on the menu, you can tell they make good coffee. The waffle menu was simple and delicious. We ordered the foster. SO GOOD.“

“My wife and I enjoyed a great meal this evening at Pinang Asian Cuisine. The flavors were wonderful. The service was excellent, friendly and prompt. The atmosphere in the dining area was pleasant aesthetically with music to match. Definite 5 stars.“

“What an awesome server Joey was!!!! So attentive, So friendly. The manager on duty was great and the food was amazing 🤗🤗OVERALL AWESOME EXPERIENCE“

“Great bowls and burritos! Well above the chain options. Food is fresh, delicious and place is clean and customer service friendly.“

“Great food and atmosphere!!“

“Santa Fe Grill has the best food, period. Every dish is cooked to perfection, flavorful, and warms your heart along with your stomach. Everything is reasonably priced and it's not uncommon to leave with a doggie bag. Parking is easy with the underground garage, too. I have so many favorite dishes and I find it difficult at times to try new things; but when I do, the new dishes automatically become favorites. Living in Ardmore, we bypass many local Mexican restaurants and make Santa Fe Grill the one and only place to eat. To quote Arnold Schwarzenegger . . . I'll be back (again and again and again). The most amazing waiter is Kitchen - super helpful, knowledgeable, explains every dish in detail, and just an all-round nice young man.“

“Jennifer Ballintyn and team made a wonderful cake for my wedding reception at Longwood Gardens! I chose a simple, elegant design. At Longwood, the florist decorated it with edible flower petals to make it even more beautiful. It was delicious and there was enough cake for everyone (around 100 guests)! Thank you so much! They also give you a free anniversary cake if you ask!“

“The burger I had tonight was one of the best I’ve ever had! Wow, just wow! 🤩“

“I have been going there from the age of 3 or 2 ye,s Old..."PNM thanks. I miss the food. I live in the middle west now.“

“Just found out about this place a month or so ago and got to say they are awesome. Like Pho? Like Sandwiches? They got you! Pho Sandwich is awesome! All the flavors, but no soup. And the roll they use. Toasted goodness. Mmmm. Wish I lived closer.“

“We've now had Viva Vegan make at least half a dozen custom cakes for us over the last couple of years, and they've all been excellent! The head baker/owner Evangelina can handle any dietary constraints. One of our recent cakes had to be gluten free and also avoid a few other common ingredients, and the cake was still very fluffy and moist and delicious... a big hit among all of our guests! She uses organic and high quality ingredients as well, which no other bakery in town does that I know of.“

“Food is delicious and the whiskey selection is incredible!“

“Very good soups, sandwiches and more! Yuuuuuuuumy!“

“Rice has long been our go-to place in DE for sashimi: thick cuts (as they should be), always fresh, expertly prepared. We love the wonton soup and fried rice as well, and everything we've tried from the non-sushi menu has always been a cut above. Everything tastes prepared fresh that day; the vegetables are crisp; it's never overloaded with salty, gooey sauce. So many places just cover up mushy vegetables and old rice with sugar-heavy sauce because it's what we Americans expect, but this restaurant seems to actually care about putting out quality. The staff is always courteous, too. Thank you for the lovely Valentine's Day meal my husband just brought home. You all are doing a terrific job.“
