49 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Salem

“One of my favorites in the city. Love it! Try it!“

“Excellent last stop in Salem on a beautiful fall October day. River side beer garden and kiddo friendly. The Fiestbier rocked and the dark Czech beer made my wife happy. Good people, and great place to relax after a fun pre-Halloween midweek day and before catching our ferry back to Boston. Highly recommended when in Salem next!“

“We first found mercy tavern last October! We planned a quick trip again this year and it was on our list of places to return to! We absolutely love the atmosphere, food and amazing drinks! Can’t wait to go back.“

“A hidden gem, and wonderful spot in Salem!! Fabulous drinks, a wonderful story, and the greatest staff. Perfect spot for just about anything.“

“The birria tacos where so good can’t wait to come back and they have really good service!!! 5 stars!!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“It was awsome, yummy and all of you very friendly - you are Great. Mans ist warm regards for Jacky from the two germans . Good Luck Kerstin“

“Best breakfast we have EVER HAD!!!“

“I am a huge fan of key lime pie and have sampled it at pretty much every opportunity. Each time, I find something that isn’t an A+. The crust is too grainy or crumbly, the bakery has added meringue (which I like on lemon but not lime), or—and this is the most common offender—there is entirely too much lime in the recipe. But the key lime pie I had at Caramel was exceptional in every possible way, especially in its balance of lime flavor. I didn’t try anything else there, so I can’t vouch for the macarons or other goodies, but if you love key lime pie, RUN to this bakery!“

“Highly recommend the pizza; it features all very fresh ingredients. The staff is very friendly and the environment is very comfortable! Great to bring the kids!“

“We really enjoyed Sea Level and the food was delicious! Our waitress was absolutely phenomenal and made the experience even better.

It’s also super kid-friendly, which made it a great choice for our family. Definitely a restaurant we’d happily visit again!“

“April’s II is a wonderful restaurant with a very friendly staff, great food with huge portions and reasonable prices. Special Thanks to Yulana our very friendly waitress.“

“Great food and great service!“

“The options and variety of the ciders is very impressive. Alex talked us through all the flavors to make a selection for a flight and also guided us based on our preferences. Gabrielle gave us recs since it was our first time in Salem, which was perfect bc she suggested an apple picking farm on our way home bc of her rec. super cute pumpkin decor and great music. I can’t wait to come back and try more drinks.“

“Scott and his crew are a welcome staff to this place. Had an awesome toasted Italian today with some pizza and a few other items to boot. Great service, clean place, excellent food. Can’t wait to go back!! Good luck Scott, you’re going to kill it!!“

“We met our son and two grandsons for Saturday morning breakfast. Food was good, fast, eggs done perfectly with not too much grease, and generous portions. Staff were excellent. Loved the meal.“

“Amazing service! Great food and drinks! Antonio was AMAAAZZZING!!! He’s the best server ever!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“They accommodated us as a large group (14) for an after wedding dinner during their busy October season. Food was great. Service was excellent! Serving size was good and price was surprisingly modest for our large group.“

“Kokeshi is in residency with Bambolina (a wood-fired pizza joint, also delicious) and it's perfect! My husband and I (and our puppy, Dexter) stopped in for lunch on Wednesday and were treated to a wonderful meal with an awesome server and comfortable outdoor seating. I had the Spicy White Kimchi Ramen and my husband had the Margherita pizza. Both were amazing! I highly recommend stopping in when in Salem!“

“Had the best time at finz this Tuesday night. We sat at the bar wich was great not to crowded but still get a decent view of the water. The bartender Terry recommended the crab stuffed haddock wich was delicious she also picked out the most perfect chardonnay to go with it. We also had the crab nachos, ginger maki and a dynamite roll all very good. Between the food, the drinks, the view, and the service finz cant be beat! Best meal of our vacation for sure.“

“We had such a blast at your restaurant! The food was amazing and the drinks were out of this world! The staff were so nice and welcoming! We came in on Friday before closing and everyone was so nice! We so appreciated it! We can’t wait to come back when we visit! Best vegan pizza I ever had!“

“I’ve been here three times in the last two days. And I’m probably going to stop in a lot the next few days. The food is so good and allergy friendly. A great place for vegans. Good atmosphere and the servers are so nice and friendly.“

“the food was great! love the wall art inside.“

“It was my first time at the new location and wow it’s huge! Like the 3x the old one.

We came on a Saturday night around 10pm and it was bumping with a dj and a lively crowd.

Drinks were good and food was okay which is fine. We were going more for the drinks anyways.

We did run into a little bit of a pickle where I was charged twice a different amount (I get it. Mistakes happen!) and the manager Chris was awesome and remedied the problem quickly.

This bar is for people who love watching games because there are plenty TVs!“

“The name is true, the pizza really is amazing. Jacqui has great hospitality, a delicious sauce and cheese blend atop perfectly crunchy but never overcooked crust. The garlic bread sticks are also a favorite!“

“I have no problem making the statement for all to read...This is the best pizza I ever had. I decided to get a steak sub today and it was the best sub I ever had. The people are friendly and professional. Seriously, I have had pizza everywhere and nothing comes close. I'm looking forward to trying everything.“

“Always a great time going in there and the food is always fabulous! My go to every time!“

“My next door neighbor so it’s oh so convenient and always right on time! Reasonably priced in today’s pricey marketplace for a tasty burger and they have a gluten free bun. Not a gourmet experience but better than run of the mill fast food. Eating in is a fun experience surrounded by the East Regiment Beer Company.“

“Food was delicious 🤤 and our waitress Tara was awesome!! First restaurant we went to at Salem and we were definitely impressed. The drinks were great as well.“

“Food is delicious. I’ve had the soup and sushi here. Plus kudos to my waitress for making me laugh about the takeout for my husband. Well done, well done. 👏👏👏“

“Was able to get a table on the patio immediately with very quick and attentive service! The food was AMAZING! If you’re in Salem this is a “
must visit location! Lobster Roll and clam chowder were absolutely delicious!“

“Me and my family visited Salem yesterday for a little roadtrip, we come to Salem all the time (we are from New York). My sister mentioned that we go somewhere different to have lunch/dinner. We selected on The Counter, Ashley (hostess, waitress) charmingly greeted us and we picked a table to sit. The menu was very simple and had great selections. My sister and mother got the counter salad wrap, I got the Counter Burger, my daughter 12” cheese pizza and sister in law the grilled cheese. The amount of satisfaction being whispered out of our mouths…oh my god! Everyone’s food was absolutely delicious, we all voted that this will be our food place to eat every time we come to Salem. With the amount of hospitality, Kindness and attentiveness that Ashely gave to us, she was top notch! You have one AMAZING employee at The Counter. We can wait to come back, we would love to check out Hotel Salem one day. So all in all, myself and my family give The Counter a 10 out of 10, and we give Ashley a 10 out of 10!!!!“

“Had a vegetarian burger which was good but kind of pricey.. Was bummed they were out or coleslaw when I came. I’d rank them decent for eco-friendliness.. I noticed they use plastic straws and condiment containers..
They did fulfill my request of no straw though.“

“Several dozen bagel varieties to choose from.

The menu selection for sandwiches has offerings for everyone. You can create your own sandwich with toppings of your choice.

As visitors, it was a bit hard to know where exactly to stand to place our order.

Know that this place is very busy!

Walk-in orders:
1. Online order pick ups: walk-in and pick up your order to the left of the registers
2. Express orders: far right side; ordee up to one dozen uncut bagels, cream cheese, coffee
3. Individual orders: form ONE LINE at the left hand register. Keep to the right side of the wall while queued up. You are assigned to a worker and not a specific register.

Place bagel orders first, any sandwiches, loose bagels, etc. Then they make your sandwich, then drink orders, then payment.

Seating inside may be limited. It all depends.

Parking lot holds ~18 cars; turn around may be fast. Do NOT park across the street at Salem State or you will be towed.

Highly recommend the sandwiches (lots of meat); I should have gotten the Rare Roast Beef but opted for the Sausage, Egg & Cheese breakfast sandwich. VERY large and can feed two average people or enough for those that have a big appetite.

Large bagels!“

“Great place to listen to live music!!“

“Excellent Food!!!! Loved the Chicken Chow Mein. It was packed with fresh white chicken and veggies were perfectly cooked. The Pork Fried Rice was super fresh and had big pieces of fresh pork. The egg roll was huge and not greasy. Delicious!!!!!“
