50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Downingtown

“Food and drinks are really really good. It was BUSY. The place is very small and cramped, which I suppose adds to the charm, but it makes it loud and a little claustrophobic. The poutine and the skillet cookie are both top notch. Would love to see them expand to a bigger location.“

“Becca and Lyssa are the best bartenders around! They always take amazing care of us! Our drinks are never empty, our food is always fresh and correct! Our weekly visit is always great with them!“

“Everything is delicious, best pizza in Downingtown! Thank you!“

“Great beer and great service. Loved the roof top bar.“

“Love this place. Apart from great coffee and pastries, they even have a GIANT mug with samples of pain relievers (see picture). Asked the lady serving us why they have them on offer and she said “they go well with caffeine”. Note: it was shortly after NYE. I simply thought it was extremely thoughtful.“

“This Olive Garden was just what you expect when visiting this chain restaurant, good service, good food and a good time. We ordered the Meatball and Spaghetti and also the soup and salad meal and they were both perfectly made. I enjoy the never ending soup, salad, breadsticks and drink refills Olive Garden offers. I always leave satisfied for the price.“

“Estrella NEVER disappoints!! I’ve never gotten anything that I did not like and hands down, their espresso martini is by far, the best around. I highly recommend!“

“I have been there twice and it has been an amazing experience both times from the food, ambiance, to service. Neither me or my boyfriend are vegan, but this place is delicious, light, and fresh. Everything is very well done and is a nice escape from the city. When they change the menu again we will be back!“

“Wow!!! First time here and looking forward to returning when back in the area. Incredibly delicious, perfectly prepared sandwiches. Serving sizes are great...you won't leave hungry. Great variety of vegan food in a relaxed atmosphere. Clean, with variety of table seating or window view. Not a large crowd setting or easy for disabled. Inviting for families with a few table games available. Fun menu names; friendly staff.“

“My wife and I went to Sovana on reccomend from the folks at Phillips Mushroom Farm. We are very glad we took did! From the semi-twin ladies opening the doors for us, to the fun atmosphere, to the great food. They compt' my wife's dessert 'cause it was her birthday and made a GREAT Bloody Mary! But even better than all of that was our server, Racquel T. She was fantastic! She was very friendly, made us feel right at home, was chatty but didn't waste time, she knew the menu very well, even though she said she was relatively new. Absolutely delightful...the kind of personality that makes you want to come back. Thank you all for a wonderful time. John G.“

“We had a wonderful server, Madison. She was really great. We did not feel rushed by her as in so many places now. She checked in with us routinely and was very attentive and friendly. She was 5 star service for sure! Food was great bar food. Will go back. Hopefully Madison will b our server again.“

“Was pleasantly surprised at the quality and level of service at this restaurant. Ordered a scallop dish and a pasta dish and were totally blown away! Will definitely go back next time we visit.“

“Food was fresh and cooked perfectly. This was our first time ever trying Lebanese food and I am hooked. Staff was knowledgeable and very helpful. Owner was a delight. Recommend to anyone looking for authentic cuisine. Will be back!“

“We don’t live close by, but my husband’s workplace is. We get takeout and it’s so delicious!!! I would never cook and be broke if we were any closer.“

“Taco Mar is always a must have when we are in West Chester. The food is fresh and delicious, everything made to order. Danny and his staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Although you order at the counter and atmosphere is low key and relaxed I enjoy it more than most other Mexican places.“

“There is nothing on the menu you can order and not like. Seriously. Everything is freshly made with locally sourced ingredients, recipes are well thought out and meticulously made with the absolue best combinations. All baked goods are baked daily on site and are the closest you will get to what heaven is. Service is superb. Servers are friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable and go out of their way to make sure you're having an excellent experience. It may be small inside and have a small parking lot but that's the appeal. It's like a little cozy home! Don't let another day go by without trying! It's THAT good! ?“

“I had a last minute order for a very special 2 yr. old birthday girl. I explained to Sophia that I would be running close to closing time but I would be there. She assured me, it was fine and took my order so it was all ready for me when I got there 5 minutes past 4pm. The birthday girl is gluten free and enjoyed her special treat! We also tried peanut butter black out, cookie dough, cookie butter and strawberry pretzel. They were all amazing! Can't go wrong with Dia Doce cupcakes, the best!“

“Insomnia Cookies in Exton delivers consistently delicious treats that never fail to satisfy a sweet tooth. The cookies, always served warm, are a delightful indulgence, boasting flavors that hit the spot every time. However, the price per cookie might raise an eyebrow, especially when considering the size, which can sometimes be smaller than expected.While the taste of Insomnia's cookies outshines those of bigger chains like Crumbl, there's room for improvement in the marketing department. Crumbl's weekly flavor rotations keep things exciting and draw in customers, a strategy that Insomnia could consider adopting to keep up the buzz. Alternatively, a slight reduction in price could help balance out any perceived discrepancies in value.Overall, Insomnia Cookies remains a top choice for satisfying cookie cravings, offering a warm and comforting experience with each bite. With a few tweaks, such as more dynamic marketing or adjusted pricing, it could easily solidify its position as the go-to destination for cookie lovers in Exton.“

“The best gelato (we travel regularly and taste gelato all over the U.S. and Italy). Really kind owners. Cute shop. Plenty of space to sit. Focus on natural. Creative and rotating flavors. The gelatiere knows his stuff. Is there anything more to say?“

“Food was amazing. Loved the rustic look. Service was great…friendly.“

“Really enjoyed this restaurant. We were in town for graduation. Our new grad recommended The Tomato Shack, so we were happy to check it out.My wife and I got sandwiches and soup and our son got a personal pizza. Sandwiches were good. The tomato soup was great. The kiddo ate the whole pizza, so it must've been good. He doesn't normally eat a lot when we go out.If we are in town again, we'll try to swing by. Thanks for the good food!“

“The food and the experience was great. Definitely try the maple vinaigrette if you have a salad.

Parking: There is a small lot behind the building, a small lot in front of the building, and a small lot across the street. Otherwise, parking is pretty difficult to find. Catching an Uber to get here is a good idea if you're close enough to make it economical.“

“Stumbled upon this restaurant while in the area, and so glad to have!The highlights for our group of 4 were the pints of cask ale, the venison rack special and the sticky toffee pudding!!! Amazing!!We also enjoyed our Scotch eggs, bubble and squeak, bangers and mash, and shepherds pie.Seems like (on weekend night) you better grab a reservation. We waited without one and considered ourselves lucky when some space at the bar opened up well before a table was available for 4.“

“Roots is the best! Even when you have to wait for a table it’s WORTH IT! Sometimes they are super busy and it’s a small place so I give them grace! Servers are attentive and friendly and as mentioned by a reviewer below, “servers (are) walking by regularly”, so you know you can get help whenever you need it. The other reviewer below with the same last name mentioned how cute the atmosphere was and I just have to agree! The garden is blooming right now baby!!! Mocktail list is absolute fire and I will request to eat their chicken sandwich on my death bed.“

“Last night was our first visit back to Hood's since they remodeled, and we couldn't have enjoyed it more! Drew was an excellent server, and the food was even better than we remembered.“

“Nice environment with great suchi. Will come back soon~“

“Please please bring back the burrata and soprasetta appetizer!! It was the best and so many patrons miss it!!“

“Really enjoyed and highly recommend trying!!!“

“I normally order takeout and they are generous with the pork belly slices! The service was polite and it was empty when we arrived. The food came in a timely manner and beautifully presented. My favorite is the Shio Charsiu ramen since the broth is similar to chicken noodle soup. Definitely my preferred ramen restaurant compared to others in West Chester.“

“We had an incredible dinner at Pietro’s for our wedding anniversary. The steak was the best we’ve ever had, and we’re big steak fans who’ve tried many places. The fried calamari and wine were also excellent. The service was outstanding from the moment we were greeted at the door. We’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Couldn’t recommend it enough, kudos to the chef! ???

Parking: There’s free street parking or the garage parking, you’ll just have to pay.“

“We celebrated our 50th anniversary at this particular Chop House in Exton. Excellent service, incredible food, delicious beverages. We ordered appetizers, and specialty drinks, our server Orville was so attentive and definitely knew the menu. The general manager, Maureen stopped by to wish us a happy anniversary and make sure everything was as it should be. The service and food exceeded our expectations, it always does. Maureen seems to be an amazing role model to her staff, she is the manager, but you definitely find her with “hands on”, it’s incredibly obvious how much respect they have for her. Our main entree was prepared perfectly. Dessert was not only perfect in presentation it was delicious! I cannot say enough about this location. From the time you are greeted by the hostess till it’s time to leave, you are made to feel special. Chop House in Exton, Pa you are the BEST!❤️“

“This location quite good. Great sandwiches with only the finest fresh ingredients. Great to go ready made meals, coffee and a whole lot more. Clean store, with many Italian specialty items. They have been my go too for wine and cheese pairings every Easter for the last few years. The wine and cheese monger Nadine is a local Malvern girl who again set up the perfect pairings for my elderly Aunts annual feast at Immaculata. Only down side has been when it's busy it can be a bit slow during the holiday season and at times some of the support staff doesn't know wine or cheese. Aside from that I highly recommend it. I wish we had a store like this near where I live in MA. This year I will order items on line for my own gift giving.“

“Had a wonderful 5 course set menu meal at a beautiful country inn. Food was great, service and atmosphere- excellent. Perfect for special celebrations, comparable to anything in the city. The all-vegan country store is an added bonus. They have their own baker. Got to take home some nice pastries as well as some Rebel brie. We plan to stop by for some premade foods on our way to Longwood gardens.“

“I can not give enough stars to rate our experince today. 1st of all t Joseph the owner allowed our group of 11 to come in 1 hour before opening hours. We placed our appetizers and meals the night before. ( Interesting idea) Then today when we had arrived they had us set up on the 2nd floor. Very private. Jenn and the other servers did an AMAZING job of catering to our needs as they gave us PHENOMENAL service. The appetizers went over just as expected . There was nothing left of them as the entrees were ready to be delivered to the tables. The food was AWESOME. Perfectly seasoned and the meats were very tender and delicious. Deserts were scrumptious to say the least. They have their own bakery !!!! I will tell you now if you dont give this place a chance to amaze you , well you wont be able to blame me. On a side note, the owner Joseph even came up to chat with us. What a wonderful gentleman. We had friends fro. Egypt & Armania who complimented the Chef.“

“I’ve been to Rolling Star many times since they first opened. They have different options for Bagels that are delicious as well as amazing cream cheeses. The bagels are so fresh and you feel like you’re in NYV. I’ve had their sandwiches in the past which have always been great. Everyone is always very nice when I go and the place is very clean.“

“Best Frozen Yogurt ever! My favorite is the homemade cookie dough, it’s insanely good! Everyone needs to try it in their lives! I also love how many flavors they have,peanut butter is also my fav.“

“The food and atmosphere are just amazing. Jenny is the best! so friendly, always tries to remember your name/face and just goes above and beyond to keep that restaurant running. #1 sushi spot for me.“

“I couldn't wait to review this restaurant! My husband and I went here for a birthday dinner with another couple and we were treated like royalty from the second we walked in - if I could give unlimited stars for service, I would - our server, Julie (Jules?) was AMAZING. She was so very personable and friendly, without being intrusive. She had answers to everything we asked, from questions about the menu to the history of the restaurant. The food was so good, the four of us all got different appetizers, main dishes, and desserts and we shared them all - every one was just as good if not better than the one before. As an added bonus, the menu was not at all overpriced which is such a nice surprise these days. I'm sorry this was such a long post, but it was just such a wonderful dinner that I feel like I could gush on and on - so stop reading me and go here!!“

“Combined a scoop of edible chocolate chip cookie dough with scoop of vanilla ice cream. It was Sunday at 5ish and very quiet in town so we sat on the bench outside of Cookie Dope and ate our treats. Cost $15 for the two of us to grab dessert there. Several choices of cookie doughs to select from in order for it to be bit different than other ice-cream places. The cookie dough made the cost worth it to try something new tonight. The young woman working today was super kind.“

“Best chai blend! Very unique tasting. Delicious almond croissants. Such a calm, clean atmosphere but busy enough that we could enjoy it with a baby without feeling like we were too loud.

Kid-friendliness: Calm atmosphere but not pretentious feeling. Didn't feel shamed for being louder or messy“

“Omg! These people can throw down! Let me be more specific, chef Troy will bring you Joy make you go home and use your toy! That food was so good I had to rhyme on that one!We have come here at least five times already and each time we've come the food has been awesome sauce!I always get the braised short ribs, boneless... No fat lingering... All melt in your mouth, then combined with the mash potatoes and gravy! Chile cheese!I know I sound like a fat girl, but lawd have mercy!Today I had the green bean with my meal... Let me speak on that as well! I had to pace myself because I didn't want to leave them delicious green beans on that plate!My partner always gets the lemon thyme roasted chicken breast with rice pilaf and broccoli... She cleared her plate as well! I'm talking consistently, each time, flavors never wavering, ALWAYS on point!Then you have the bartender Miss Brenda, (who by the way had a birthday today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS BRENDA!!! ?) and let me tell you, when you go ask for the Miss Brenda specialty sweet drink!I'm excited because we are always disappointed when we go spend our money at some of these other places and they f@*# your food up, smdh.You should never have an issue here at the White Horse Tavern & Wine bar!After you eat you gonna wanna waddle on over and get you a room! Comfortable beds and most of the staff is awesome!! Mr Craig is a delightful and humorous dude and we will most def Always Make this our restaurant and hotel of choice (Sheraton Great Valley) in Frazer, PA!!!!“

“The breakfast burritos are phenomenal, Im sure the other food is good but thats all I have had along with the orange juice.I always get the exact same thing. Froman Burrito with fresh avocado and extra cheese, its the best breakfast I have had in town.I see a lot of complaints about pricing and wait times, and Jaco has a tiny kitchen/restaurant so I feel confident they are just doing the best they can in regards to wait time.Pricing? Its definitely not cheap but we live in an expensive area and everything is really fresh and good and they don’t skimp on portions, if price point is your concern nowhere in West Chester is cheap anymore.“

“Special Monday drinks and cheesesteaks with Amigo Dan. It’s hard to find Cheesesteaks and Alcohol on a Monday. Amigo Dan thinks he is a Pizza Expert so we went to Mercato and got a Mercato Pizza and Old Fashions. We liked Mercato’s. We liked our server. We liked our Old Fashions very much. I liked all of the ingredients that make the Mercato Pizza and just did not like them together as a pizza. The egg freaked me out.“

“OMGEEEE! Maggie Moo's used to be in Columbia Mall in Maryland, like 10 plus years ago, and I was devastated when they left! I JUST moved to Philly, amd you guys are only 30 minutes away!!! I have found heaven, I can't wait to stop by!!!“

“We have been eating at Murasaki since long before the pandemic, and have always been fervent fans! Their food is always spot on, and they have NEVER messed up an order, EVER!We order from there several times a month. They are dependable, friendly, and most importantly, delicious every time!“

“Can’t believe I haven’t rated this place yet. Dinner is incredible… but I finally had brunch today. Chorizo pancakes are crazy good. Apple and prosciutto toast is insane. I’ve always had the specials for dinner and they’re always great. BYOB too.“

“Good food. Excellent service“

“Came in around lunch time not too busy. It was quiet and layed back. I had the pesto magic wrap which tasted incredible for a wrap the turkey was even warmed didn’t expect it. My drink was lavender matcha was the perfect mixture not overly sweet or strong. Spent $20 tab bit on the pricey side. However, if the food and service is great it’s worth it. Thank you. ?“

“If you’re looking for some amazing organic food, where you don’t have to worry what you’ll eat when you have food sensitivities???? This is the place! A warm and friendly atmosphere, with so many gluten free/dairy free options. I will make a point of coming here whenever I’m visiting.“

“The gem of restaurant row! Tonight - Ryan w/ music bingo w/ the one and only Tom Nyles ! Justin Schakelman- a one star review confirms that morons without taste buds and axes to grind should stick to Magurks and McDonalds !Great staff… great bar… family owned !“
