THANK YOU!! My partner moved to NYC a few months ago and I have been struggling trying to find good places to eat every time I visit from Toronto! Breakfast/brunch/lunch on the weekends has honestly been the hardest thing for me to find, so I super appreciate the bagel reccos and the French pastry spots! I can't wait to try!
I legit ONLY trust you with food options when I’m in NY. On vacation this summer I went to most of these places and HANDSSSS DOWN best nachos EVER were from Jajaja! Best burger I’ve ever had was from Jerrell’s. My husband still talks about them. I’ve even driven the 2 hours to just pick up lunch at some of your recommendations. Soooo appreciate what you do because years ago when I first went vegan and didn’t know about your page I had some horrendous vegan food experiences in NY. Now I go solely for your food recommendations. Even my husband says “so where is bodega cat taking us for lunch today?” 🤣 love & appreciate you sooo much!
I’ve been to Planta Queen…the Spicy Tuna and Torched and Pressed are delicious…my favorite roll is the Eggplant Unagi by far…I had the Dan Dan Noodles, I was disappointed…I don’t like that mix of wheat and coconut…I’d give it an 8 out of 10 but I wouldn’t get it again
TofuBox in Williamsburg is so so good. Cheap vegan Chinese food. The box sets are to die for. Also, Mala project isn’t fully vegan but definitely my favorite restaurant in the whole city.
Oh man. You definitely needed to mention modern love. I’ve been vegan 7 years and I can say without a doubt they have the best vegan soul food (and nachos, better than Jajaja!) Great list regardless though!
Actually in Italy they have pizza that has no cheese only tomato so it would be so lovely to try for a tourist . No seasoning either or herbs or spices. They like food plain there contrary to what westerners think
My husband & I watched all your videos before we went to NYC for our 10th wedding anniversary in March. We went to Jerrell’s (my husband still dreams about it), JaJaJa (the nachos were INSANE and cannot be beat, Orchard’s Grocer, Tompkins Sq (the BEST bagels I’ve ever had - nothing in the UK can compare!) and we also went to Coletta which we loved. I’d like to be buried with their tiramisu 😂. I trust your recommendations 100% and only wish I could go back to all those places and the ones I missed out on! Thank you for your amazing videos Rebecca.
This is such a helpful video, thankyou for giving such great details about each place. I have one question, where do you suggest for a health spot? I dont know if it makes sense, but you know that feeling where youve eaten out so much that you feel kinda sick and bleurgh, and just want healthy fresh food/home made?
Most of these look like way too miuch carb and suger and not enough nutrition for me. I also do not like things like fake meat or fake dairy, or soy or tofu. I am looking for a place that has rice or potato concoctions with nuts or legumes, mushrooms, seeds, vegetables, garlic ginger turmeric healthy oils (but not deep fried or covered in batter). And fruits. Food that is vegan but also filling and good for your heart immune system gut, energy, muscles, etc.
Maki Monday at PLANTA Queen was a great tip! Half-price Maki rolls was a good deal, but UNLIMITED Maki rolls for $27 was a steal! Thank you Vegan Bodegacat!!
Thanks so much for all the great recs! We visited NYC in May and tried a bunch of different spots you've recommended previously and they were all great. (I'm still dreaming of Le Petit Monstre.) Can't wait to go back and try more.
I had not heard of Pia before watching this video and went there to try it, but tbh it was pretty bad. The tamale I got was kind of hard on the outside and wet/undercooked in the middle. Jajaja is way, way better.
I wish I got paid for the amount of times I had to have this conversation 😭😂 I understand “J” is “h” in Spanish. But no, the restaurant Jajaja is pronounced with J. Not H. The owners named it with a J sound.
Randomly came across this channel but in the future check out “FoodForNegus” in Brooklyn. Small shop but very tasty food with freshly made beverages. You won’t be disappointed.
Amazing recommendations as always Rebecca! Unfortunately I'm not going to NY any time soon :( I'm going to New Orleans in 1 week for few days and than to Ocean Springs in Mississippi for 2 weeks, does anyone know any vegan places there ? Thanks! I'm from Poland btw. ❤
Thanks for the amazing & delicious spots in NYC, Brooklyn born 🗽 and Hey I didn’t know you were that vegan couple too @sweetsimplevegan !! That’s awesome love that 🙌🏼
Whenever I'm in midtown I stop by vegan on the fly. banger. thanks for the recs, I think my life goal is to make it down to brooklyn one of these weekends and hit up screamer's they look so good in your vids
I'm coming to NY soon & I'm literally gobbling up all your NYC content on food! This comes in handy after my in depth research of vegan places to eat at haha! Thank you!
since we’ll be in NYC in like two weeks I was wondering if I could get some not-so-much-food advice but more touristy advice. is it a thing for New Yorkers to go to some kind of (sports) bar on sundays to watch football? if so, are there recommendations for such bars? 😅
I will probably never visit NY, I don't travel and I will never have the kind of money it takes to stay there but I still find these videos entertaining.

Awwwww this made my day! Im so glad you find my recs useful!
Veganism is rising and thriving while carnism is trying and dying! WE ARE VEGAN! WE ARE PROUD! AS VEGANISM RISES WE GET MORE LOUD!!!!
Queens? Gotta be something in Queens!
Hey hey, I spotted Jasmine and Chris 😬 I’m totally using this video to make my list next time I visit New York. I’ve only been once 😄
Please do!
I’ve been to Planta Queen…the Spicy Tuna and Torched and Pressed are delicious…my favorite roll is the Eggplant Unagi by far…I had the Dan Dan Noodles, I was disappointed…I don’t like that mix of wheat and coconut…I’d give it an 8 out of 10 but I wouldn’t get it again
Phenomenal reviews! Wish there were legit vegan stops around Lincoln Square
TofuBox in Williamsburg is so so good. Cheap vegan Chinese food. The box sets are to die for.
Also, Mala project isn’t fully vegan but definitely my favorite restaurant in the whole city.
Nice 👌 #vegan 🐓🐄🐇🐟🦆
Oh man. You definitely needed to mention modern love. I’ve been vegan 7 years and I can say without a doubt they have the best vegan soul food (and nachos, better than Jajaja!) Great list regardless though!
Love them! Although I cant agree the nachos are better than jajaja. Jajaja nacho supremacy.

Awww im so glad y'all had a good time trying my recs! Thanks for taking the time to let me know. It makes my day.
All I want in Portland is a vegan french patisserie. Le Petit Monstre looks amazing!
It's how far you've come with saying La Petit Monster (ya girl can't write french rn she just got up)
Thank you! Ive been practicing!
@@bodegacatx flawless ✨️
Ah man thanks, best way to visit home with my new vegan diet.
Double Zero Pizza is my favorite pizza in NYC
Its good! But not really NYC pizza. So thats why Its not on the list!
@@bodegacatx
I see what you’re saying…it’s different from traditional nyc pizza
Oooo dammmn... I finally rounded up some peeps to do an NYC vegan food tour. We'll be starting with this list!
I hope I’m one of those peeps! Vegan Bodegacat always has the best recs! 😋
ayyyy enjoy!
Love from nepalese vegan ✌️😍😍
thank you or his list, i ill save this for next time I visit
👍

I have one question, where do you suggest for a health spot? I dont know if it makes sense, but you know that feeling where youve eaten out so much that you feel kinda sick and bleurgh, and just want healthy fresh food/home made?
Then I go to dig inn!
Jerrell’s is THE BEST
Most of these look like way too miuch carb and suger and not enough nutrition for me. I also do not like things like fake meat or fake dairy, or soy or tofu. I am looking for a place that has rice or potato concoctions with nuts or legumes, mushrooms, seeds, vegetables, garlic ginger turmeric healthy oils (but not deep fried or covered in batter).

Sounds like your kitchen. And my kitchen usually.
Maki Monday at PLANTA Queen was a great tip! Half-price Maki rolls was a good deal, but UNLIMITED Maki rolls for $27 was a steal! Thank you Vegan Bodegacat!!
Im so glad you enjoyed!
Jerrels burger is amazing! I’m dying to go to Planta and Jajaja
All great spots!
Thanks so much for all the great recs! We visited NYC in May and tried a bunch of different spots you've recommended previously and they were all great. (I'm still dreaming of Le Petit Monstre.) Can't wait to go back and try more.
Glad you like them!
Yes to all of these but we can't forget Guevara's 🥺
Ugh, love them too!
Whats the best time to visit new york and for how long as a visitor 😄 really want to try the nyc bagels and pretzels and that vegan beyond sushi place
Fall or Spring! And id say a week or so
Great places. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Two Boots has locations in Manhattan for great vegan pizza options! Lots of fun toppings
Yum
I'm grateful for this video
You're welcome!
I had not heard of Pia before watching this video and went there to try it, but tbh it was pretty bad. The tamale I got was kind of hard on the outside and wet/undercooked in the middle. Jajaja is way, way better.
Oh goodness. Sucks you had that experience. I haven’t tried the tamale but the quesadilla, burrito and corn I had were delicious
Does Roberto have a channel? Love yours too!
Yes! It’s “whatsgoodberto”
She said "JAHJAHJAH"!!!
AWESOME!
Thank you for this video.
Btw, it's pronounced "hahaha".
I wish I got paid for the amount of times I had to have this conversation 😭😂 I understand “J” is “h” in Spanish. But no, the restaurant Jajaja is pronounced with J. Not H. The owners named it with a J sound.
@@bodegacatx But it's a mexican spot, no?
Great choices! Have you been to the newly reopened ATM Vegan Deli? I think their BEC and the Miles from OG are the best breakfast sandwiches around.
I haven't been to it in person but I order from them some times! So good.
Love the recommendations. I'll be in NY on March 😊 Definitely I'll taste every place 🤭
Enjoy!!
Randomly came across this channel but in the future check out “FoodForNegus” in Brooklyn. Small shop but very tasty food with freshly made beverages. You won’t be disappointed.
When u know Rebecca enough to know all the stuff 🥲🤩
What restaurant have good NY vegan cheesecake? And chop cheese sandwiches
Marthas Country Bakery has a good vegan strawberry cheesecake. And Plantega has good chopped cheese!
@@bodegacatx Thank you ☺️
Amazing recommendations as always Rebecca! Unfortunately I'm not going to NY any time soon :( I'm going to New Orleans in 1 week for few days and than to Ocean Springs in Mississippi for 2 weeks, does anyone know any vegan places there ? Thanks! I'm from Poland btw. ❤
You should go to Breads on Oak in New Orleans!
Did anywhere good close? (Forever RIP to Rip's Malt Shop)
I should do a whole vid on that!
@@bodegacatx go for it!
you are a saint! thank you!
You’re welcome!
So would you not recommend Mora Pizza as much as Screamers?
Mora Pizza is no longer in NYC
@@bodegacatx oh bummer!!
🤤🤤🤤
All the food looks delicious. I spotted Jasmine and Chris in the background!!!
A awesome vegan restaurant guide to NYC Rebecca and love 🥰 the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
very solid list
Thanks!
I'll be back in the city begining of September. Only been back once since I moved away. I lived there for 2 years pre vegan. I'm so excited!!!!!
You’re the OG
Thanks for the amazing & delicious spots in NYC, Brooklyn born 🗽 and Hey I didn’t know you were that vegan couple too @sweetsimplevegan !! That’s awesome love that 🙌🏼
Oh my my… i love you already. The detail you gave was wonderful. I am definitely gonna try many of the.
You should try Ikes sandwich they have so many vegan sandwiches
Whenever I'm in midtown I stop by vegan on the fly. banger. thanks for the recs, I think my life goal is to make it down to brooklyn one of these weekends and hit up screamer's they look so good in your vids
I loved this vid! Perfectly succinct, entertaining, and informative ❤
Leaving my NYC tomorrow. Perfect Timing 🤩
I love how you had to New York Splain how we do cream cheese up in here to folks who don’t put enough cream cheese on the bagel🗽🥯🥰
Thank you for this!! I especially want to try Jerrells and Screamers with some friends when they come visit!
I love these travel vlogs! Do you plan on including any sight seeing/ other non food adventures?!
Oh geeze this isn’t even your travel channel lol my bad
Haha thats ok! I am trying to explore a bit
vegan on the fly is sooo expensive :( especially compared to meat versions
😋 wah
Love you
Love your videooos❤️ when i visit New York i will try them all 😻
I am so impressed how many foods are now vegan naturally like these raisin buns, cheesy pizza and so on.wow. Never could have imagined 15years ago
I looove planta! I’ve had almost everything on their menu 🤤
Super amazing recommendation for Jerrell’s burgers 🍔; thank you you’ve made my trip so awesome!
Im so glad I can help!
OoOoo can't wait to visit these the next time I'm in NYC
Great list. There are a few new places on here I can't wait to try!
screamers is fine
I need to do an update video to this
@@bodegacatx yea as a vegan in nyc I need it especially since some of these places are closed
Fantastic video! Your passion for the food comes through so clearly 👍
Thank you!!
Perfect timing! Love this video!
I'm coming to NY soon & I'm literally gobbling up all your NYC content on food! This comes in handy after my in depth research of vegan places to eat at haha! Thank you!
You’re welcome!! Have a great time!
since we’ll be in NYC in like two weeks I was wondering if I could get some not-so-much-food advice but more touristy advice. is it a thing for New Yorkers to go to some kind of (sports) bar on sundays to watch football? if so, are there recommendations for such bars? 😅
Sorry, I know such bars exist but I dont know of them!
FYI spicy moon doesn’t have the eggplant bun anymore :(
Oh I totally forgot. Thanks for reminding me!
Could you try sestina - I am craving some vegan gnocchi. Heard that it’s the same chef in Double Zero and Bar Verde. All three are next to each other!
I’ve been! But I don’t think bar Verde is owned by the same guy anymore.
I will probably never visit NY, I don't travel and I will never have the kind of money it takes to stay there but I still find these videos entertaining.
Awww haha im glad
this video just came right on time, thank you!! I‘m flying in 3 days to NYC 😁
Have fun!
Thank you so much for this😁🙏
I'm visiting NYC this week and I failed to do any vegan food research in advance so you are my new hero. Thank you so much!
Happy to help!
These options r perf! Been to some of them and my fav is jerrels burger. When I tried it, I almost started crying bc it was so freaking good
Im so glad you liked it!
You need to try hangawi, it's vegan Korean and the best experience!!
Ive been! Its delicious
Perfect timing for me! I return to NYC in about a week and will be there for four months. I sure appreciate your good work over all these years!
Enjoy your time!
Thank you for the video. If I ever go to New York this will be a great reference. Love your videos.
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much! Definitely gonna look back to this when we visit :)
Have fun!
Love your channel. Becoming vegan has really changed my life.
Changed your life like how if you don’t mind me asking?
Saving this list for my next time I in NY visiting. Thanks.
Have fun!
these recommendations are so good!
Thank you!
Perfect 👍 my husband wants to go to New York this month he wants to go to Coney Island have you been there and if so what do you think?
Honestly, eat before you go. Coney island is not very vegan friendly unfortunately
@@bodegacatx Thank you!
💚
😋😋😋
