The 9 Best Vegetarian and Vegan Restaurants in Tbilisi
A couple of years ago, vegetarian and vegan places in Tbilisi were a rare find. However, with the increase of tourism, both cafés and restaurants that offer such meals have started to pop up across the city. Vegetarian options are available more often than vegan dishes, but there are a couple of places that are tailored to those needs. So, here’s a list of some of the best vegetarian and vegan venues for you to check out.
1. Hurma
Cafe, European
For those who are on a budget and are vegan or vegetarians, Hurma offers six different vegetarian dishes to choose from, along with smoothies with spinach, apple, and ginger; pumpkin and apple; orange and persimmon; or one with cucumber, celery, and spinach. The smoothies here are 6.50 Lari, while meals are between 4.70–7.70 Lari.
2. Kiwi Vegan Café
Cafe, Restaurant, European, Vegan
3. Sakhli 11
Restaurant, Georgian, European
The centrally located Sakhli 11 offers a home-like, cozy atmosphere and excellent Georgian music in the background. Even the name “sakhli” means home in Georgian and perfectly suits the place. Delicious and well-presented food and a good selection of local wine are what await you here.
4. Cafe Leila
Cafe, Georgian, Middle Eastern
5. Amber Bar
Bar, Wine Bar, Argentina, European
6. Rustaveli Cafe & Restaurant
Cafe, Restaurant, Georgian, Middle Eastern
Inspired by the medieval Georgian literature masterpiece The Knight in the Panther’s Skin by Shota Rustaveli, the menu of Rustaveli Cafe & Restaurant is full of the phrases and aphorisms from the poem. Complete with a cozy atmosphere with a Georgian touch, the café offers plenty of vegetarian meals.
7. Salobie Bia
Restaurant, Cafe, Georgian
8. Hummusbar

9. Bina N37
Restaurant, Georgian
The word “bina” in Georgian means an apartment, so Bina N37 is an apartment in a residential house turned into a restaurant. In this somewhat unique setting, Bina 37 has 43 qvevris, Georgian traditional clay jars used for producing wine, placed on the roof veranda of the venue. Thus, you’ll be tasting some homemade Georgian cuisine and wine taken from those jars on the spot!
