With 264 suitable restaurants under their belt, Croatia’s capital, Zagreb, takes third spot with an average vegetarian rating of 8.78 out of 10.

The eastern European capital of Albania, Tirana, takes fourth with an average rating of 8.76/10 for their vegetarian restaurants.

Helsinki, Finland, is the lowest rated European capital for vegetarian restaurants
Rated 8.08/10 for their vegetarian restaurants, Finland’s capital, Helsinki takes last place for their vegetarian restaurants. Despite 11% of their population being vegetarians, the fourth highest vegetarian population in Europe, the restaurants are not up to scratch compared with the rest of the continent.

Veganuary, as the name clearly suggests, is about going VEGAN for a month, which is not the same as Vegetarian. There are many thing Vegetarians eat that Vegans do not. So why write an article about Vegetarian venues in Budapest when it should be an article about VEGAN venues????!!!!!!
Dear Kati, you certainly have a point! However, for many going vegan all at once proves to be a great challenge. As a vegan myself, I appreciate any little step people make towards a more sustainable planet. We should celebrate these kinds of initiatives, as well as content that highlights them, instead of trying to find fault in everything. If you are interested in vegan restaurants in Budapest, previously we’ve also posted an article about those. Have a happy and prosperous New Year 🙂
The classic, tried and tested Hungarian method of deflection: “We should celebrate these kinds of initiatives, as well as content that highlights them, instead of trying to find fault in everything.” So obvious.
