39 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Scranton

“Hands down one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The staff were absolutely fantastic and the food was phenomenal!“

“First time here and the experience was AWESOME! The best mexican tacos I'd had in the east coast, much more for the Scranton area! Delicious food, well seasoned, quality of ingredients, presentation, prices and customer service are second to none! We felt like we were back on the west coast! They got us as permanent customers!!! 💝“

“Great hospitality! Totally best experience.“

“I was nearby visiting my wife in the hospital, and I remember seeing some young man wearing a Chicanos t-shirt near my house which is about 1.5 hours away.
So I decided to go by and get a couple of items to go and eat them when I got home.
By the time I got home it was really late, but I decided to taste everything anyway and it was absolutely fantastic!
Much better tasting than I was expecting and they were very generous with everything and their portions.
I got the pork posole, which came with a couple of bean tostadas! To my excitement and surprise! And the Posole?
Was both chicken and pork cooked into the stew, but here you have to choose whether you want to have pork or chicken. So this is something I was not used to and I thought I was going to be disappointed.
Having chosen pork, when I rewarmed it the next morning I was unbelievably surprised at how fantastic this was, easily some of the best posole I've had in a decade!
A carne asada burrito, which came with chips and salsa.
And I remember thinking to myself when I picked up the burritos oh my gosh this thing is really a big burrito! I haven't seen a real size burrito since I left the West Coast in 2010! ? The taste was absolutely fantastic and it even had grilled jalapenos in it which just kicked the flavor up another notch!
Not to be not to sound arrogant, but this Salsa was so good, it was like if I made it myself, super fresh! ?
I have to say my favorite thing was the chorizo tacos!
Anyone that grew up with real Mexican chorizo and knows what they're exactly it's supposed to taste like and these tacos absolutely did!!
Chicano's, Let me know if you guys sell your t-shirts, cuz I would absolutely and gladly wear one all over! I need a size XL! ?
Great job, cocineros! Muchas Gracias!“

“With no doubt Pizza by Pappas has the Best food in town! I am from Hershey and I always come here to eat they're specialties. The tuna sandwich and the Pizza are my favorites, you need to try!“

“We ordered several items from the menu and everything was delicious! The falafel was excellent and the flat breads and vegetables were so fresh! Definitely will be eating here again.“

“AV is my family's favorite restaurant. They have a variety of different options on their menu, from homemade pastas, to fresh seafood, to decadent fresh salads. The ingredients and pairings are absolutely out of this world, and are comparable to a NYC level of presentation and taste.
The service is impeccable. From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with warm & smiling faces. The servers are very thorough, extremely welcoming, and make you feel like you belong. They are very knowledgeable about the menus, and are happy to give great suggestions.
To say that AV Restaurant is the best restaurant in Scranton isn't even scratching the surface of just how fabulous of an establishment it truly is. If I could give 10 stars I would. You must give this place a try!!!!“

“Just dined here tonight for the first time. It was wonderful! Our server, Abigail was professional and friendly. The food was fantastic. The Brooklyn Bomber pizza was terrific and the duck wings couldn’t have been better! I’ll definitely be back & recommend this place to anyone in the area!“

“Been here many times,, had so many different meals. I haven’t been disappointed YET. Mike comes out and Greets his customers. The the atmosphere..“

“Update to my past review:
Even better place since they stopped allowing smokers. Excellent food; great, huge variety on the menu!
Great wait staff. I always bring my friends for breakfast Saturday and it never disappoints! Coffee is great and free flowing. They get busy right about 10:00AM but the waitresses keep up quite efficiently. Love the veggie omelette!“

“The food here is exceptional! Everything we ordered was so delicious and fresh. You can tell whoever is in the kitchen really cares about the food taste and quality. Everything is made from scratch and the portions are very good! Highly recommend eating here.“

“Last night I picked up a tray of pepperoni pizza at Maronis. I wish I took a picture of it. It was perfect. Better than a 10!!! And the picture would never outdo the taste. One of the best I ever had and we've been getting our pizza here for almost 5 decades. Hands down, over and over, consistently the best!!“

“Was in the area looking for good Thai food and found this place on Google. The food was Authentic Thai flavors and they gave generous portions and prices that make you do a double take! Quick, friendly service and food that hit the spot. So glad we came here.“

“Absolutely amazing service and such great food. I couldn’t recommend enough. Every single person we interacted with was extremely nice. The food was literally AMAZING. I love it here so much.“

“Wow! Menu..Service..Food... Wow!

I am passing through town and saw the Viewpoint Diner on my way to the hotel. After looking it up and calling to confirm that breakfast was served all day, I headed over for dinner. As the host walked me to my booth, I saw the specials board and amazing looking meals in front of multiple patrons, and my breakfast for dinner plans went out the window. The menu is more than that of any old diner. It was a broad, colorful menu with professional pictures of most of the meals. I was immediately greeted by my waitress & her trainee but needed more time with the expansive menu. I ended up selecting Stuffed Shrimp (crab) and veggies and salad. I should have taken pictures, but I was too excited. Everything tasted as amazing as it looked, and the portions were hearty. The waitstaff was attentive and friendly. The whole experience was such a pleasant surprise! I wish I was going to be in town long enough to go back and try the breakfast.

The atmosphere was great. The exterior was well lit with awnings displaying their menu categories, the interior clean and inviting. It seemed like at least a few of the other tables were local regulars, which I consider a great thing.

My only suggestion would be that they round out their profile on Google to include the menu to help others find them. I didn't find what I was looking for there and took a gamble and won this time. 😉

If you get a chance, go! You won't be disappointed.“

“A nice little place that has been in the downtown for close to 20 years. You enter through the bar that is roomy while also having hightop tables. When entering main dining, the first thing we noticed was the piano player, which is a super-cool touch! He played some fun songs, including some of his own, cracked jokes, and also interacted with the crowd while not being intrusive at all. My wife and I each got a martini (Dirty Gin for her and Honey Nut Cheerio for me) and both were delicious. As an appetizer, we got Eggplant Melanzane, which was light, had great flavor, and a delicious vodka sauce. My better half had a Caesar salad with probably the best Caesar dressing we have ever had. I went with the gorgonzola salad that had a nice, tart raspberry vinaigrette. For our entrees, she had the chicken special, which featured thin chicken breast and portobello mushrooms in a port wine sauce, topped with gorgonzola. It was very earthy and deep, a worthy special. I had the Pollo Sambuca, which is the same thin chicken breast with shrimp and mushrooms in a creamy sambuca sauce. It was very flavorful and slightly sweet. The anise is there, but not distracting. This was a solid meal! Our server, Thellenza, was attentive and informative. She made sure we understood all of the specials and took care of anything we asked. The rest of the staff is also helpful, too, and we were never in need of anything for long at all. The adult beverages that we enjoyed were definitely tasty, we just wish they had more of a wine and beer selection. Food: 9 Service: 10 Atmosphere: 10 Adult Drink Selection: 8 Overall: 9.25“

“Gotta shout out a dog friendly restaurant! We came a few days ago on a beautiful, warm summer day and our server made sure we all got water right away, including our dog! Sooo many drinks to choose from and great food-be sure to start off your meal with sweet potato fries with the rumchata marshmallow dip!“

“the cinnabon pancake was crispy outside with a soft inside the flavor was outstanding. on my best day i couldn't eat the whole thing and the service was great too“

“hot wing pizza is definitely 👌 the sauce thicker and tastes amazing“

“I just moved to the Scranton/Dunmore area from New York City. I was looking for a local place to “hang my hat”. After trying several local establishments, someone told me I should try Crotti’s on Ash. I met Sheila, the owner, who is fantastic about managing, serving and booking the bands for the place.
I walked in on a Monday night and saw Clarence Spady playing a rendition of “Hey Joe” that floored me. If you don’t know who Clarence is- Google him. I’ve been coming back ever since. Every band or person that plays here is extremely impressive and high quality. Coming from NYC, it’s difficult to impress me but everything about this place is awesome. The people here are warm, good-hearted souls that make everyone feel welcome- Even a displaced person from New York City!“

“My first ever vegan pizza! It’s was outstanding! I don’t miss the cheese.“

“i did not very much enjoy the food, but i am rating 5 stars anyways for these reasons as follows: from the strip mall location, sparsely decorated entry way, the chandelier on the cheap school ceiling, fake flowers and classic paper chinese zodiac placemats on the tables, and the music playing so softly it's almost silent inside save for the clink of forks and plates from the four or so tables in for lunch (forks, not chopsticks, provided) and friendly kitchen chatter just out of earshot, this place sends me directly back to 8-year-old nostalgia, when my father would take me to places like this on days together, back in texas, when life was easy and simple. prompt help, choice of seat. lunch specials (many to chose from) come with pork fried rice, (which i asked to not be included so to my dietary preferences (god-related) so i cannot rate this dish), a choice of soup, wonton chips with sweet-and-sour dip, and a pot of hot tea. the water arrives in a goblet. perhaps i should have studied the menu longer, but my choices were as such: very goopy and gelatinous and disturbingly tasteless beef chow mein (i attempted to sprinkle some pepper in hopes of helping the poor thing out, but way too much came out of the shaker and it was pepper chow mein from then on), and egg drop soup that was ok but still very bland. i dipped my wonton chips into a combination of the soup and sauce which i liked the best out of everything. i really liked the tea. point is, this amount of food is simply worth the $<9 price tag, and the service was helpful, thoughtful, friendly, and sweet. next time i will try something else.

Kid-friendliness: personally i believe children belong at home or at chuck e. cheese. there is a child of an employee here though, and they are quite polite and well-behaved.“

“I ordered a large round pie and took it back to the office for lunch. I am from Brooklyn and I am very particular about my pizza but this pizza was so good. It just blew me away. I thought I was back in Brooklyn. Outstanding Pizza I can’t say enough.“

“We stopped on our way home from Cooperstown, this experience was amazing. I only remember yezzys name but the guy that waited on us was so friendly the whole staff had great attitudes and genuine hospitality and happiness. Couldn’t have asked for a better brunch to feed our 6. Grill guy and (dawn) (maybe) was on point with correct doneness and freshness!!! If we ever come back through, we’ll certainly stop again.“

“Stopped by on a whim and was blown away! I got the General Tso’s chicken with fried rice and an egg roll — everything was packed with flavor. The staff was super polite and even gave me some recommendations for next time. Definitely coming back!“

“Love the food, drinks & overall vibe!“

“I ordered a meat stromboli. I told the girl meat i wanted pepperoni ham sausage. They gave me their regular one and added the thee meat. She said yes you order a meat. I said yes she called the guy that made it I'm guess the owner said it wa my fault I didn't tell them I did want all the other stuff. I ordered a meat stromboli. I left it on the counter. Never asked me if I wanted my money back or make me a new one. I didn't make a big deal. they had a few people. But I'm so made I never go back. I have made many meat stromboli when I worked at a restaurant. Terrible!! It had mushroom in it that I'm allergic to.“

“There's not another restaurant in the state of Pennsylvania that can compare to the glider diner open face roast beef sandwich with gravy Not a one Not a one And as a long lost friend would say enjoy enjoy....Frank Hallock“

“our drinks were delicious & the all you can eat tender meal is seriously such a great deal. our server Kayla was so kind and attentive, i also thank her for her patience with waiting for our brother to join us ! also have to give Emily a shoutout because she’s amazing too !“

“A local sports establishment with tasty bar food and cold beverages at a fair price. Lots of televisions for all your sports watching needs. Jukebox playing some music when needed. Staff/bartender is very welcoming. Low key, friendly, and relaxed environment.“

“I recently visited this place, and it was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and made with fresh ingredients. Every bite was a treat!
Highly recommend it for anyone looking for great food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be back!“
