rOOTS is a dietary-friendly spot in Thessaloniki.

Address: Mpalanou 4, Thessaloniki 546 22
Tarantula veganises Greek classics: moussaka without the bechamel, soutzoukakia with lentil and walnut, and a pastitsio built from mushroom ragu. One of the few vegan restaurants that successfully addresses the Thessaloniki palate rather than running an international menu.
Fully plant-based since 2014; the entire menu is vegetarian and vegan. The seasonal bowls, raw desserts, and market-sourced produce make rOOTS the first choice for any vegetarian visiting Thessaloniki.
SinTrofi's zero-waste seasonal kitchen always includes strong vegetarian options in its daily changing menu. The biodynamic wine cellar and organic produce sourcing mean vegetarian guests eat as well as the omnivore table.
Ergon Agora's menu carries extensive vegetarian options at every meal: grain salads, cheese boards, egg dishes, and plant-based meze plates built from the Greek pantry of its retail shelves. The brunch format is particularly strong for non-meat eaters.
Tarantula's plant-based versions of Greek classics are among the best vegetarian dishes available in Thessaloniki. The fully plant-based kitchen means every dish is vegetarian. The moussaka with lentil ragu is particularly recommended.
Ya Habibi is one of central Thessaloniki's best-known halal restaurants, on Egnatia near Vardaris. The menu covers Middle Eastern specialities including chicken mandi, falafel, shawarma, and lamb kebab. Generous portions, reasonable prices, dependable for halal-only travellers.
