When planning a holiday, it’s always reassuring to know that your chosen destination’s eateries can cater to your dietary requirements or restrictions.

To ease your mind and help you plan ahead, we’ve put together this list of Jersey restaurants and cafés offering fantastic vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options on their menus.
We’d always recommend contacting venues in advance to discuss your specific dietary requirements, to ensure their teams can take the very best care of you. Now, get ready to tuck into the best vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free meals on your Jersey holiday!
Vegan dining
Jersey is brimming with vegan-friendly dining options. From Pan-Asian gems, like Awabi in the centre of St. Helier, to beachside favourites like La Brise, no matter what sort of cuisine you’re in the mood for, you’ll find plenty of vegan options on the menu that are big on flavour and creativity.
You won’t have to miss out on the sweeter things either. While a quaint tearoom, tucked away in a garden centre in a rural corner of the island, might not be the most obvious place for vegan food, Ransoms Tearoom likes to surprise. There’s a huge selection of vegan cakes and even vegan no-milkshakes. Go on… treat yourself!

If you’re looking for meat-free dishes, lovingly made using local produce, you’ll find lots to tuck into in Jersey.
