Poppie's Cafe
Located on the east side of town near I-35, Poppie's Cafe is a hidden gem. This restaurant has mastered the art of plant-based deliciousness. While technically not a vegan restaurant, Poppie's Cafe has plenty of vegan-friendly options on the menu. The vegan hickory crispy chicken is a particular fan favorite, even amongst non-vegans. This cafe has a variety of other vegan delights, such as the breakfast burritos (which can be made vegan upon request), hearty soups, and sweet smoothies.The atmosphere is laid back and simple, making it a great place for a casual breakfast or lunch.

The coffee is also amazing, making Sunflower Cafe a great place for breakfast.Meddys
If you're new to Wichita, allow me to introduce you to Meddys. This restaurant became so successful that it now boasts multiple locations in Wichita and even a few in Oklahoma. While it is best known for its Mediterranean offerings, there are plenty of vegan dishes on the menu. The hummus is amazing, and pairs well with their falafel, lentil soup, and tabouli salad. Each dish is crafted with the best ingredients to ensure an authentic Mediterranean flair.The atmosphere is fast-casual, making it a great place to get a quick bite of plant-based food.
Tanya's Soup Kitchen
On cold winter nights, few things are better than a warm bowl of soup. For these occasions, we recommend Tanya's Soup Kitchen. Tanya's has plenty of soup options for omnivores, vegetarians, and vegans. This eatery is committed to using fresh and local ingredients. As such, the soup menu can change day to day based on what's in season. No matter the day, you're sure to find some kind of delicious vegetable soup or lentil stew.
The salads are also top-notch and can be easily customized to be fully vegan-friendly. Vegetarians particularly praise the "Lulu" sandwich, a masterpiece made with edamame, roasted garlic humus, and roasted peppers.
FioRito Ristorante
For an upscale dining experience, we recommend FioRito Ristorante. This Italian eatery has a separate menu entirely crafted for vegans. At FitoRito, the vegan pastas are much more than just pasta without cheese. The vegan menu is seasonal, ensuring a fresh and delicious experience with every bite. Diners particularly enjoy the Spaghetti & Roasted Mushrooms, Lion's Mane Steak, and Crispy Brussel Sprouts. Beyond dinner, the vegan menu includes breakfast and lunch options, making it a great place to dine any time of the day.With its elegant atmosphere, this is the perfect place for date nights or special occasions.
Sabor Latin Bar & Grille
When most people think of Latin American food, they don't think of vegan-friendly options. However, Sabor Latin Bar and Grille is defying that expectation. Their menu has plenty of options that are naturally vegan, in addition to a separate section of unique vegan creations. A particular standout is the Quinotto, a quina-style risotto with mixed vegetables and a truffle oil drizzle. And if you're craving a unique salad, we recommend the Enslada La Casa, a blend of mixed greens topped with crushed plantain chips and a drizzle of Coconut Ginger Vinaigrette.
The atmosphere at Sabor is often festive, featuring live music throughout the week. The margaritas are also fantastic, making it a popular weekend spot.
