These are the European cities where vegetarians want to go

Say wine, snacks or haute cuisine and the gourmands at online food magazine FavorFlav know where to drink, how to eat it and what to cook. This time our cheffies serve you: These are the European cities where vegetarians want to go.

Twenty years ago, most restaurants didn't have vegetarian options. As a vegetarian, you were lucky if you could order a green salad with some bread as a starter. Fortunately, times have changed and we now find vegetarian restaurants everywhere we go – or at least restaurants with an extensive vegetarian menu. Planning a European city trip and want to know which city has the largest selection of vegetarian restaurants? Here are the 7 most vegetarian-friendly cities in Europe.

1. Berlin: 128 vegetarian restaurants
You might not expect it with all those currywurst stands on every corner, but Berlin actually has the most vegetarian and vegan restaurants in all of Europe. A whopping 128, making this city quite lonely at the top. Totally hip in this city: vegan fast food and farmers' markets with organic products. How nice!

2. Paris: 60 vegetarian restaurants
We are absolutely crazy about French cuisine. But honestly: it’s not really known for its rich vegetarian offerings. Foie gras, entrecôte, boeuf bourguignon… Those who don’t want to venture into all that French meat can breathe a sigh of relief in Paris. With 60 vegetarian restaurants, you have plenty of options to eat deliciously.

3. Barcelona: 56 vegetarian restaurants
If you choose Spain, you don’t have to leave your vegetarian principles behind. Especially not if you opt for a holiday in Barcelona, because there you will find no less than 56 vegetarian restaurants. Craving vegetarian paella? Then visit Vegetalia (Gotico). For tapas, you should go to Veggie Garden.

4. Leicester: 54 vegetarian restaurants
It may not be the first city that comes to mind when planning a city trip, but Leicester has a lot to offer. Especially when it comes to vegetarian restaurants: with 54 vegetarian spots, this English city deserves a nice fourth place on this list. Surprising fact: the number of vegetarian restaurants in Leicester is greater than that in London.

5. Vienna: 53 vegetarian restaurants
If you are in Vienna, you eat a wienerschnitzel, but of course not if you are vegetarian. Unless you can order a vegetarian wienerschnitzel, of course. In one of the 53 vegetarian restaurants that this Austrian city has, that should definitely be possible.

6. Amsterdam: 49 vegetarian restaurants
Amsterdam is always good. Extra fun: you don’t have to travel far to get there. Extra extra fun: it’s a great city for vegetarians and vegans. Not only do you have a 100 percent vegan supermarket (Vegan Fresco), but also plenty of choices from vegetarian restaurants. No less than 49 options, spread throughout the city. We already knew it: Amsterdam never disappoints, so not in this area either.

7. Warsaw: 45 vegetarian restaurants
Like French cuisine, Polish cuisine is not very vegetarian-friendly. Still, as a vegetarian, you don’t have to worry about biting on a stick during a weekend in Warsaw: there are 45 vegetarian restaurants with extensive menus.
