Veggie Lover Cafe ອາຫານເຈເພື່ອສຸຂະພາບ

Vientiane · Vegan

The restaurant follows Oriental vegetarian principles (no garlic, onion, or five pungent spices), and the menu is fully plant-based apart from some dairy drinks in the fridge. A vegetarian diner should be well accommodated for food, but should confirm that the specific dish ordered contains no eggs or dairy.

Vegan Reunion Cafe

團結咖啡 Vientiane · Vegan

This is a 100% vegan restaurant in Vientiane, Laos, with an extensive menu of Vietnamese, Thai, and Lao dishes. The kitchen uses seitan, tofu, tempeh, and other meat substitutes. No animal products are used, so the venue is inherently safe for vegans. However, there is no mention of dedicated equipment or staff training for cross-contamination with non-vegan ingredients (which is unlikely given the all-vegan setup), and communication about specific allergens may be limited as some staff do not speak English. Call ahead if you have concerns about trace animal ingredients.
