Veg & Veg | Mercato Centrale Firenze

Firenze · Vegetarian · €⁠€

The venue's website and several blogs describe Veg & Veg as a vegetarian restaurant with vegan options. The menu includes veggie burgers, poke bowls, and pancakes, but no dedicated vegan kitchen is confirmed, and not all dishes are vegan. The Eating Europe blog notes that the menu focuses on burgers, poke bowls, and brunch-style offerings; the author tried the halloumi burger, which is not vegan. The Veggies Abroad blog lists it as a vegetarian spot. The venue's own site describes it as "Vegano & Vegetariano" (Vegan & Vegetarian), but menu images show items like "Burger Veg, Crema di Grana al Pepe" (containing Grana Padano cheese, not vegan) and "Burger Veg, Burrata" (burrata is dairy). This indicates a mixed menu with both vegetarian and vegan options, not a fully vegan kitchen. HappyCow does not list this venue in its top 10 vegan restaurants in Florence, further suggesting it is not a dedicated vegan establishment.

The menu also contains many non-vegan items such as meat, cheese, fish, and eggs, and the kitchen is shared.
