You didn’t choose the vegan life. The vegan life chose you. Or maybe it chose your date, and now you’re flailing to plan a dinner that will impress. Relax—here’s a list to help you plan your perfect night. After all, the way to a vegan’s heart is through their stomach.

Sift through thousands of listings around the globe, using location and dietary filters, and read through any restaurant’s details.

Lighter
Seeking a romantic home-cooked meal instead? Trust Lighter to show you the ropes. This web-based service helps you curate delicious vegan recipes based on your preferences and the recommendations of prominent vegan food experts, athletes, and change-makers—completely free.

Barnivore
Don’t forget the wine! But beware of any beverage that could compromise your sweetheart’s diet. Some wines (and beers) use animal-based fining agents like casein, gelatin, or isinglass—that’s right, fish bladder protein. So, don’t imbibe until your libations of choice have passed the Barnivore test. The website catalogs the vegan-friendliness of more than 3,500 wines, making it easy to ensure your purchase is safe from contamination. 

Vegan Divas
With a sumptuous main course before you and an invigorating glass of wine in hand, only the promise of dessert at meal’s end could further sweeten the deal. Enter Vegan Divas, your one-stop shop for vegan desserts galore. Brownies? Check. Cake? Check. Chocolate mousse, donuts, and macaroons? Check. With shipping available for all 50 states, and same-day delivery in NYC, Vegan Divas has your back, even if you’re stranded in a meat-lover’s paradise. Just keep the environmental footprint in mind! If you can find vegan sweets in your hometown, opt for a romantic, carbon-free stroll instead.
