Pav’s Creamery - Cuyahoga Falls & Green

  • Clearly marked vegan ice cream options

  • Super cute interior - kinda like a 50s diner! 

  • The Cookies and Cream is SOOOO good! So creamy!

Crave - Akron

  • Delicious bratwurst - you can order as an app and split it up too. That’s what we did! The creole mustard is the perfect addition. 

  • Clearly marked vegan items 

  • The best sorbet I’ve EVER had in my life. The blueberry acai was too good for words.

Crave Cantina - Cuyahoga Falls

  • My FAVORITE is the Impossible Meat Burger Taco it is so good! They also have a vegan chorizo.

  • You can get them as tacos or sub in a burrito - I HIGHLY recommend the burrito as well. The rice is so good!

  • The guac is delicious, I always add jalapenos. You can get trios of the salsa too - sometimes they have limited time vegan items - make sure to ask your server! Once I had vegan dessert and vegan elote there.

  • Great place in the summer, open air, full bar 

Aladdin’s Eatery - Akron, Cuyahoga Falls & Hudson

  • Clearly marked vegan items

  • My favorites being the hummus, spicy cauliflower, and falafel pitza (pita pizza!)

  • Mediterranean food 

Square Scullery - Akron

  • Temporarily changing locations

  • Clearly marked vegan options

  • Very unique menu

Lock 15 Brewing - Akron

  • They always have some type of vegan menu item available. They change their menu seasonally and I once talked to a staff member about how they have a chance to try everything for the best recommendations!

  • Plenty of parking, beautiful venue, great for family/friends because there is something for everyone. I need to go back to try their new menu items!

R Shea Brewing - Akron

  • They have a Beyond Burger on the menu!

  • They also have a few appetizers that may be vegan - they should definitely inquire when they get there to verify which are vegan and not just vegetarian.

Mr. Zubz - Akron

  • I haven’t been here since I was vegan and I need to go back! I love this location. Reading reviews and it seems that a lot can be made vegan with substitutions and everyone is really knowledgeable!

  • When I get a chance to go I want to try a few of their options! It all sounds so good

Brick House - Cuyahoga Falls

  • Impossible Burger! Mmm so tasty - unfortunately no buns are vegan! The regular bun has eggs and the GF has egg whites. My server was happy to serve it on extra spring mix and tbh, it was AMAZING! Get it without cheese or aioli and you get spring mix, grilled onions, and roasted tomatoes.

  • Might be a great option if you’re looking for somewhere the whole family can eat. Salads + impossible burger and the other toppings would be soooo good!

The Soulful Vegan - Akron

  • HUUUUGE menu that they say changes daily

  • Loaded fries, fish sandwiches, mexican options (burritos and bowls), burgers, pulled pork, hotdogs!

  • Weird hours of operation so make sure to plan ahead! 

Bricco - Kent

  • The Bricco Beyond Burger is soooo good - it has vegan cheese and comes on a pretzel bun

  • Tots and fries are always a great side, but order the fried brussel sprouts WITHOUT the aioli for another great side option!

  • There is also an option for a cauliflower crust pizza with vegan cheese!
