The Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Santorini

Right off Fira’s main square, FalafeLand is a refreshing falafel joint where everything is vegan, except the yoghurt sauce. The hummus is delicious, and the menu is reasonably priced. It’s a casual, fast food joint where you can fill your stomach on the go.

A very laid-back beach bar serving vegetarian dishes, Tranquilo serves international cuisine, along with some Greek dishes and burgers made with vegetables. The vibe is cool and casual, and if you are in the mood to try the frappe (cold instant coffee served with milk and ice cubes), Tranquilo makes a vegetarian version with soy milk.

For a change of scenery and flavour, Jaipur Palace is an Indian restaurant in Karterados. Though the restaurant is not strictly vegetarian, it is vegetarian-friendly and features a wide selection of delectable meatless dishes as well as vegetable samosas, veggie soup and salads.

Serving traditional Cypriot cuisine, a blend of Greek and Middle Eastern fare, Kyprida is a charming taverna located in beautiful Oia. It may not have a view over the caldera, but it is truly a little gem when it comes to dining. You will find vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes made with nothing but the freshest ingredients, plus there is a great selection of wine. On Wednesdays, you can even enjoy some live music performances while savouring your meal. It’s a lovely experience you won’t soon forget.

On a quiet pedestrian street in Oia, away from the hustle and bustle, Karma is a beautiful little restaurant with an inviting verdant courtyard, a relaxed vibe and a menu with tasty options. It offers diners soups (the revithada with chickpeas is a must-try), salads, veggie fritters, and a few main dishes (skordomakaronia, or garlic pasta, stuffed tomatoes and veggie kebabs). The drink menu is equally diverse and even has a few cocktails worth a try.
