50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Newington

“I haven't been to olive garden in at least 10 years, but what I can say is that this one gave us the best experience. The food was pretty good, but the service was absolutely outstanding. Jenna was wonderful and treated us beyond kindly. She made us happy to come back again any time!“

“I found this place because I was searching for a chefs tasting table. They ended up being booked out for a year so I figured just regular reservations would suffice.I booked the bar and was so glad I did. We got there and there was an anniversary card hand-signed with little congratulatory messages from the entire staff. So sweet.We did a bunch of small plates. I don’t know if I remember everything but it was all fantastic. They also brought out other dishes compliments of the chef. The chef came out twice and just chatted with us. My husband asked him about sunchoke because he’d never heard of it, and he literally went back to the kitchen and came back to show us what it was. The sous chef came out too. The owner and the bartender tag-teamed serving us and everyone was just so friendly, informative, and just so pleasant to be around. Everything was plated like a work of art. We literally stared at each plate in awe because of how pretty it all looked. Every dish was fully explained when they presented it.We started with charcuterie and it was amazing. Three meats I haven’t had before, all house made. House made pickles, jam, and crackers. A mustard that was out of this world.For our small plates we had:- crispy octopus with a squid ink tuile and some sort of amazing potato fondue. It was the best octopus I’ve ever had. We ordered it twice.- steak tartare with quail egg and potato croquettes. So tender and such an amazing mix of flavors.- duck fat beignets. We got these twice. The first was a sugar coated beignet with Serrano (I believe) ham, goat cheese and a jam. The second was foie gras with goat cheese and grapes. The sweet and savory and salty all together was a complete shock to my system. I’d eat them daily if I could.- hay smoked carrots with cecina, black garlic and port poached pears. This was compliments of the chef and was just such an amazing surprise.- salmon crudo with grapefruit, bergamot and freshly grated horseradish. Such an interesting mix of flavors. The salmon was served raw so the grapefruit was a great tenderizer. It was so buttery and fresh.- fois gras served with sunchoke cake. Yes, cake. The cake was sweet and moist and felt dense but was really light. Absolutely amazing. I don’t know if that even makes sense but that’s how I can describe it. Best fois gras I’ve ever had.- ricotta tortellini- also compliments of the chef. The dough was so tender. The ricotta was so smooth and creamy. It was served with garlic scapes and almonds and mushrooms that were perfectly cooked.- we ended up getting a cheese plate at the end as well. All three cheeses were so different and perfect. Also served with the crackers, jam, and a different mustard.For dessert we ordered a layered chocolate stout cake with a black sesame tahini ice cream. It reminded me of the most elevated chocolate peanut butter dessert you can imagine. They also sent us three other ice creams: roasted almond, fois gras, and mushroom. Everything was so creamy, perfectly sweet, and flavorful. Just absolutely stunning.I’m drooling just reliving it in my mind. I cannot wait to go back.The owner informed us about the outdoor seating along the river during the summer and how on Wednesdays (I think) they do fresh oysters that are caught that morning and the person who catches them delivers and shucks them as ordered.This was the most wonderful anniversary dinner and truly one of the top 5 dining experiences I’ve ever had, no questions asked. Such a wonderfully unexpected food gem in Exeter! Our sincerest thanks to every single staff member that made our night something we will talk about for a very long time.“

“Love it! The food was amazing, especially the ginger scallion shrimp burger. The staff were super friendly and they took care of everything that we needed. We also came with our service dog and we didn’t have any problems. I would recommend making a reservation, if not you just can walk right in.“

“I purchased cookies & cream cupcakes for a friend’s birthday. They were boxed up beautifully and traveled well. The cupcakes tasted like high-end non-vegan desserts and thankfully weren’t overly sweet. They were a hit! Thank you!Dietary restrictions: Vegan“

“Fantastic! The best shawarma we've ever had in a wrap! The dumplings and Cauli were totally spicy and added shrimp, delicious. The fried Mexican cheese was also delicious! Highly recommend, we're only in town for 2 days so we'll be back tomorrow!“

“I’m from the Boston area and was meeting a friend in Portsmouth for dinner. We picked Durbar Square and we’re definitely not disappointed. We had an absolutely fabulous meal there. The chicken chili was a delicious, and a different approach than any chili I’ve had before. The chicken was perfect cooked. The sauce was full of flavor. They also ask you to pick yours spice range from 1-10 so you can choose what suits you best. The owner, John, is totally engaged with his customers and if you want, can even demonstrate a yoga pose or 2 (which he is very good at). Just overall a great place to eat.“

“This is our 3rd time celebrating our wedding anniversary with this restaurant. We will continue to come back annually for as long as they will have us. The service is absolutely outstanding. Cat provided us a very high end service and even threw in a dessert on the house for our special occasion. Super welcoming and very friendly. She's going to go far! The food, as usual left us completely satisfied. Each dish was like an adventure. The new chef was on his game through the entirety of our service. Congrats on acquiring such talent. We will always recommend this restaurant and can't wait for next year! Thanks!!“

“New name, same cool staff and excellent menu options as before. If it's not broke don't fix. Great coffee, and the food is so good for the price. Packed bowl is a perfect egg everytime, and my favorite thing. Spacious tables and cozy atmosphere, the line can get long but it always moves quick.If all that werent enough, this place supports the seacoast art scene by displaying local artists, community board for events, hosting elite music gigs, equaling something very extra special. A true gem of Dover.“

“Surprisingly neat and charming place with many affordable, casual dining options including happy hour and breakfast. Secret parking on south street They're also housed in an awesome, historic building. Also, also nineties video games at the bar“

“I am no "foodie", but I can tell that this place is next level good! Balanced favors! Aspects that I would normally shy away from, but that blended to be remarkable! Spectacular! "Best ramen I ahve ever had!" Per my college daughter.“

“The very nice employee who put together our order was very cognizant of any allergen statements we made on our order and made sure to keep that in mind when we ordered the gf bun. But appearantly they have no vegan buns even for the bean patty (which is appearantly a vegan patty). The employee gets 5 stars for being so helpful, kind and aware for us. However it's frustrating that the seemingly vegan option has one thing non vegan and it isn't labeled as such for clarity (which is very easy to do) Especially since vegan food often isn't an allergen-centric food decision. The fact that there is no choice of vegan bun to accommodate a vegan patty seems extraordinarily lazy of the owner(s).Employee gets 5 starsLexies menu design gets 1 star“

“I was hooked the first time I ate here and have been going back since. No other Thai place is needed by me. Unless, I move far away. Nah...I'll stay. I always order the spring rolls, Thai iced tea or a Mai Tai, and my fave - Pad See Yew. Mmm mmmm good. Want some now.“

“Had the Medley Crue - creative and amazing. A healthy meal you can’t duplicate at home. Nostalgic decor and great service in downtown Portsmouth. We will be coming back for more.Kid-friendliness: Great family atmosphere and a tiny toast menu“

“10/10 as always. The food, atmosphere and overall vibe are the perfect mid-day escape.They were down a person in the kitchen and rightfully told customers there would be a wait. Did it all with a smile. News was well received by most (including myself). Chicken curry sandwich was the best I’ve had there. The Granny Smith apple slices provide a tart and bright crunch to contrast the savory and flavorful (not spicy) curry chicken salad. The focaccia bread was the icing on the cake. Best sandwich I’ve had in years.Place is a hidden gem in Dover.Parking: Ample spaces availableKid-friendliness: Totally laid back atmosphere and they serve the best frilled cheese in NH“

“Very delicious and convenient located. The staff were very friendly and the food tasted very fresh!“

“Best korean in New Hampshire! authentic korean. this is not korean bbq, though they do have kalbi. my favorite is soondubu soup, stone pot bibimbap, and japchae. I get it without egg and no meat. i enjoy dining in for the stone pot that crisps the rice, but also enjoy take out. everything is wrapped up good and safe. my family manages a severe nut allergy and eat here safely weekly.“

“This was our first time at Green Elephant and we can't wait to go back! Finding a restaurant with lots of vegan options is difficult, so when we discover one and it's great, we get excited! We went for lunch, getting there right when they opened and by the time we left an hour and change later, they were completely full. We had an app, the king oyster mushroom tempura, a noodle curry, and a stir fry. All were amazing. The atmosphere was very nice as well. We didn't get any drinks, but they had a really creative cocktail menu - we'll be back for dinner and drinks next time!“

“Favorite lunch spot. Delicious“

“Completely delightful. We were served by one of the two brothers who are also the owners for more than 30 years. The food is prepared and tastes as close to authentic as I remember eating at top tier restaurants in India. The chef has precise control of the American palette's mild, medium, and "regular" hot. There's two other higher notches on the hot scale to choose from in case you are interested. All 4 in our party were impressed how well the chef produced the "temperature" to match the request.“

“Cozy spot with a big selection of herbal tea and coffee. Their lunch menu was very extensive as well. Many people were working off their laptops while drinking a coffee or tea or enjoying a sandwich. This place is very kid friendly because many moms brought their kids inside for a bite to eat. The food was delicious and you can also purchase their homemade herbal tea by the can. Highly recommended White Heron if you’re in the Portsmouth area! 10/10Kid-friendliness: Yes“

“Sometimes you get exactly what you need, and thanks to the Common Roots Cafe, I did today! Wonderful place with fresh, creative, healthy food and beverages. And they gave our dog a homemade treat! And we ate our lunch across the street on the beach. Just the break we needed in the midst of a long drive. Treat yourself if you’re in Rye, NH!!“

“Can’t say how thankful I was to have sweetened memories bake my daughters birthday cake! Everything was done exactly how I wanted and at a great price. I really can’t even express how amazing this cake looked AND tasted. Sweetened memories will be recommended to everyone from now on!“

“Very good donuts called sweet potato marshmallow“

“Fam, this place is straight up bussin, no cap. Like I’m not speaking Capanese when I say that this place is skraight fire. That korma lamb and chicken naan had me in a chokehold. Will be coming back a lot more for that bangin food, on god fr fr“

“Finally placed a takeout order at Bob's having passed by it many times, and glad we tried it. Our order was ready on time as promised and was accurately put together. I tried a broiled quarter chicken with two sides (mac & cheese, sausage stuffing) and some corn bread. Everything seemed home made, hot and quite tasty. The stuffing really seemed home made, but the mac and cheese was a tad dry for my liking. The chicken was tender, moist and delicious. Like most food these days at any restaurant/supermarket, prices seemed a tad high. Portion sizes were generous however. I'll be back to try the chicken pot pie, which is one of my favorite comfort food dishes. Give Bob's a try! Sorry no photos as I dug in so quickly I forgot to snap first!“

“Great place with nice atmosphere. My experiences with the staff have all been pleasant and the food I found hasn't been bad. Especially enjoy visiting and feeding the goat brothers carrots. Just watch your fingers... Goats may not have upper teeth but they can still nip! ?“

“Paul and his younger co-worker (can't remember his name) are litterally the nicest, most attentive, authentic people you can have wait on you in NH! They ask how you are, have deep conversations while waiting on you and truely care about every customer that come through that door! The employees and great food are why I come 1x a month and will continue to do so!Food: I always get the same thing, Greek salad, extra feta and extra beef, love it! 5 of 5 ? all day!If I ever open a buisness, I would poach these 2 amazing workers in a heart beat!Dietary restrictions: I am a diabetic who eats low carb, perfect place for me!“

“Boyfriend and I, who are from out of town stumbled across this place today because their flag blew off in the wind as we were walking by so we brought it inside and were unexpectedly thanked with a treat from the super friendly staff. It was so tasty we had to come back to get more, and will definitely keep this place in mind whenever we’re back in Portsmouth.“

“The Oak House is a fantastic Newmarket staple! It offers amazing food, wonderful service, and a great community atmosphere. It brings you back week after week!Vegetarian options: This is the most vegetarian/vegan/allergy friendly place I have ever been. They are amazing at accommodating allergies and vegetarian needs. Their menu has a wide selection but is largely just sandwiches/burgers.Kid-friendliness: They have a small kids menu and atmosphere is acceptable for kids. They can provide some crayons and pages to color if needed.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, this place has a wheelchair accessible entrance and wheelchair accessible seating.“

“Visiting from Mississippi, our son brought us here for breakfast. Good food, great servers, and cozy. Recommend this place for breakfast!“

“This lovely restaurant is the kind of place that you celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, and other momentous occasions. The prices are high, but so are the quality of the food, drinks, service, and surroundings. We celebrated our daughter's master's degree completion at the Library, and it was memorable from start to finish. All of our food was either good or great.Note: you have to go down a flight of stairs to access restrooms. Amanda was an excellent server. If you want a good red wine that doesn't break the bank (by itself, anyway), the Valpolicella from the Veneto region of Italy was stellar.“

“Huge portions! Each scoop the size of a softball! Absolutely delicious ice cream and the waffle cones were amazing! Will definitely be back!“

“Excellent local restaurant with delicious food and fantastic customer service. We live not too far away in Kittery, Maine and make the trip over to Dover at least twice a month just to visit Roots. I love the Blueberry Muffin smoothie.Vegetarian options: The entire menu is vegan“

“Wow. This place is a real gem. Great selection of unique tasty delights. That alone is great. Couple that with fast service even at max seating capacity, generous portions, and great prices and it's a "Must Visit". Thank you Tucker's, we will join you for breakfast again.“

“Went out to dinner here on a Friday, and even though it was very busy (because the food is amazing), we got a table quickly and got some apps/meals.The food was incredible, the service was supreme, and it was just an overall great night. Would highly recommend and we will be back!Dietary restrictions: Made sure there were no nuts with anything I ordered and the wait staff was very attentive.Parking: There is a paid parking lot nearby.“

“This place has something for everyone! The variety of food options and drink options are plentiful. I have been here with family and friends, sat inside and out. The staff are friendly and attentive, the place is clean and welcoming. The food is special in a simple, clean way. In the summer you can bring your dog and in the winter you can ice skate. You have to try this place!“

“Went here for our 56th anniversary Saturday night! This is the second time we’ve been here and not been able to order an entree because of the apps! We got PEI mussels and the calamari. My husband is a big eater but after drinks and these starters, we couldn’t eat another bite! Next time we are going to get one app to share and then hopefully have room enough for an entree! Service was great, drinks super! A cosmo and a dark and stormy. Will definitely be back again and again!“

“Red Rover Creamery in Portsmouth, NH, deserves every bit of its 10/10 rating! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the heavenly scent of freshly baked cookies, cakes and treats. The ice cream sandwiches are out-of-this-world delicious, pairing perfectly with their incredible cookies, cakes, and other treats. What sets Red Rover apart is their commitment to using local and seasonal ingredients, ensuring every scoop is bursting with flavor and freshness. It’s evident that each creation is crafted with passion and attention to detail, making every bite a memorable experience. Support local and treat yourself to the magic of Red Rover Creamery—you won’t be disappointed!“

“We selected Moxy for the Portsmouth restaurant week. Our table samples diverse offerings (except for the 4th course).Of the courses, the barramundi was a stand out, both beautiful and delicious, a wonderfully balanced spring plate.The service was attentive and prompt. We were not rushed and had time to complete each course before the next was brought out.I would love to return to sample the regular menu.“

“On a cold weekday, I decided to head to the Soupery to satiate a craving for chicken noodle. The location is wonderfully walkable if you work in downtown Portsmouth. Service was quick, friendly, and helpful when they ran out of the full amount of one ordered soup. My officemate and I traded bites and all the kinds we ordered were delicious and had that great homemade quality. Not much to say about ambiance because there's an ordering window and that's it! You won't have to stand in the cold long!“

“Lagos Ice Cream is always a treat. Serving sizes are more than generous. They have added more parking over the years and there are always spaces available. The picnic table sitting area is a nice spot to sit and enjoy your ice cream. Funky Panda is always a favorite!“

“This place is AWESOME! The staff is super friendly and happy and the roast beef sandwich was the best I’ve ever had!! (And I’ve had A LOT of rb sammies) I live in Maine but I have pinned this into my maps so I can stop every time I pass through. Thank you for a job well done guys!!“

“Was told about this place from a buddy of mine that goes to UNH, the service here was fast, friendly, and the food was surprisingly cheap. The quality and taste of the food was exceptional, especially considering you can get a specialty burger, specialty fries and a drink for just $15. Quite possibly the tastiest burger you can get in the entire Seacoast, I will definitely be coming back!Parking: Parking is done from the road, but considering its near UNH campus and fraternity/sorority houses, spots can be difficult to find“

“Had to kill some time today before an appointment in Portsmouth so I decided to grab an acai bowl because i was getting pretty hungry and i had no idea how long my appointment afterwards was going to go... Best decision ever! Even tho it was busy, the woman at the counter (Ella? Bella?) got my order done quickly, deliciously, and with a real smile.“

“Amazing food and coffee, superb staff!“

“We saw Aggie's on the way to get take out pizza and brought our pizza back to each under the shaded picnic tables. We got ice cream after we had finished. There are an astonishing number of phenomenal choices. I settled on an extra thick cherry blossom shake while my wife had a cup of vanilla and orange. My shake was so awesomely thick, and the cherry bits kept clogging my straw. It was SO good! My wife's ice cream was also incredible and the scoops were big. This place isn't exactly in-town so we were surprised at how much traffic they got. We're already planning to go back. There are so many different flavors and combinations and unusual dishes. Cash or check only. Parking could be scarce on heavy days. Covered table seating. No facilities.“

“Bar tender was awesome, great food and drinks and best of all, absolutely amazing service, our favorite restaurant by far, worth the drive from anywhere.“

“This place is awesome. The prices are high but I don't mind paying the extra money for such an amazing selection of stuff you can't get anywhere else. Staff is helpful, very knowledgeable and usually kind. Tried the Cafe for first time today and wow such good sandwiches and reasonable too! I try to go here as often as I can.“

“Overall roundabout is a classic staple of Portsmouth. Its vibe is awesome and they always do a great job with food. It's always great to eat here and the prices are fairly reasonable. There are a few breakfast places that I would always send my friends to. This is one of those places.“

“Next to the water park on Lafayette Street. It has a very good Cinemagic movie theater, McKinnon's meat market, and Petco shop. There is also a convenient and very good Starbucks.Food can be had at the 99 Restaurant, Ollie's and Me, Subway's Restaurant, and Dough Craft Pizza. Cross the street for Taco Bell and Burger King. Across the street from Starbucks is Cantina Vida.The parking lot is currently under repair and building of a new structure.“
