A little bit of everything

The menu offers a big variety of dishes from salads to wraps and pasta. I had the tempeh wrap and I loved it. The cakes are also very good!

Quick and easy food

This café has a very easy vibe, the menu is simple (you order through a screen so you can see the dishes) but they tend to hire English speaking staff.
I had a tempeh wrap with hummus and it was very good, lots of filling and it didn't fall into pieces while I ate it.
We also had the "popcorn chicken" which was mild but so easy to eat that it finished in a flash

Pros: Simple menu

Cons: Maybe could be cleaner

Worth it

The plant-based bulgogi bowl was excellent. A bit pricier than other places, but worth it for sure.

Great Cafe in Itaewon

This street in Itaewon seems to be quite a vegan gem. The Cafe, located at the second floor offers a large variety of sweet and savory dishes and drinks. Recommendable!

It’s definitely important to check the opening hours in advance.

I arrived around 2:30 p.m., but I was told it was almost last order, so I quickly ordered only the chia pudding.
The restaurant had been closed when I visited the day before as well, and even after the last-order time, several people came in but couldn’t order.
It’s definitely important to check the opening hours in advance.

The chia pudding was delicious, so I’d love to go back — and next time I want to try their meals as well.

Always a great experience

I’ve been here several times and always love the food! The staff are very friendly, the food is delicious, and even the drinks and desserts are amazing. It can get quite busy in the evenings especially on weekends, so I recommend making a reservation in advance.

Seouls most popular vegan cafe

I have been coming to Plant since 2015 since they were at their first location being cake-centered. This location is still as cozy at is was as in the beginning: great food, great staff, great cakes. There is wifi and quite a few power outlets. Itaweon is a vibe for sure, so I am happy Plant is located here. All the food I have had here through the years has been delicious.

100% vegan

Nice 100% vegan café and restaurant. They have a variety of vegan cakes and desserts, wraps, salads, and hot dishes.
A really lovely place! I didn’t enjoy my dish, but it was probably just not the right choice for my taste. I’d definitely come back to try something else.

Lovely

We went for the most authentic looking items on the menu including some noodles and a rice meal. There were lots of Western-type meals that looked nice too but when in Korea.

Pretty good

Served mostly western food. I had a mushroom burger 🍔 and coconut cream pie. The burger came with homemade veggie patty (almost like black beans) layered with cream mushrooms. The size of the burger is like kids sized, very small for the price paid. Count cream pie was good. Will try other items on the menu.

Awful service

Closes at 10 and at 8:45 I am told kitchen will close at 9. Ok
Menu seems quite simple, ingredients wise as well very basic. Ok
Choose a bowl and they don't have it. Ok
Choose another one and I am told that they don't have the beans. Ok, what will you replace the beans with? "Nothing, you could add ingredients but we would charge you extra" ???
How can customer service be this bad? You don't have an ingredient that's easily replaceable by another, you want the client to pay and simply ingredients be missing and are not ready to offer a solution? Left as there are many other vegan places close by

Cons: Customer service

Yum yum yum

Delicious food - everything we tried was great - especially the moussaka and meatball rice bowl. We also had the chilli cheese burger, tofu with buffalo sauce and chilli cheese fries. We had way too much food, but everything was so good. Also great to find some local cider available - we tried two delicious flavours.

Pros: All vegan, Delicious food , Local cider available

Go-to place in Seoul, very close to subway!

I absolutely love this restaurant. I’ve been in Seoul for a little over two weeks, and I think I’ve come here 4 times already. It’s very close to the Itaewon subway station, so very convenient if you live near the subway! I have tried many different entrees, all have been great. My favorites are definitely the mushroom pasta (SO delicious and creamy!!), and the hummus tempeh bowl. But honestly, everything I’ve gotten has been great!

It’s very foreigner friendly, half the staff are not Korean and they all seem to speak English. They have a full English menu as well. If you are staying in Seoul you NEED to try this place out at least once!

Nice western style restaurant

This is a good place if you are looking for a vegan western restaurant with a lot a choices in a cosy room. We ordered the tempeh and hummus wrap, onion rings, tempeh, sweet potatoes, lemon cake and forest cake. We recommend the forest cake and the wrap!
I really appreciated the various cakes, which were sweet and with big portions. I wish I could try all of them:)
The staff was also very friendly.

I really enjoyed the various options this place had. You can have all the meals in a day here, including dessert!

A must visit if you’re in itaewon.
