By | October 18, 2026 | Hyōgo Prefecture, Kansai Region, Vegan and Vegetarian-Friendly Spots | Kobe Travel

As you might already know, the port city of Kobe is more than just Kobe beef. It is a great destination to enjoy Japan’s nice hot springs, nature, harbor cruises, and much more. But the term Kobe beef might deter you from visiting the city if you are a vegan or a vegetarian because you are unsure if you can find plant-based food. So we have compiled a list of vegetarian- and vegan-friendly restaurants in Kobe, so you won’t have to rely on convenience-store onigiri while enjoying Kobe’s many charms.

Modernark Pharm Cafe (モダナークファームカフェ)

Sannomiya Station is Kobe’s busiest area. If it is on your itinerary, rest assured you won’t go hungry during the day. Not only is this vegetarian café a rare find in a city known for its beef, but it also serves food that is kind to the body and the earth. Although it isn’t a vegan spot, the café doesn’t serve meat or seafood.

Greenery decorates the café’s exterior and dining space, creating an urban oasis. Modernark Pharm Café has a Western-style setting and a cozy atmosphere. When the weather is good, the terrace seats are the best spot to enjoy the food filled with nature’s blessings. If you are lucky, the café’s adopted cat might roam around while you are there!

Each dish served in the café features a generous use of seasonal vegetables. Even the dressing is handmade! The well-presented food tastes great because a lot of effort has been put into preparing it. If you are a fan of desserts, their coconut tiramisu is a must-try. The cake is made using coffee dough, soy milk, and coconut cream.

Don’t miss the homemade cookies and muffins on your way out. The café also sells organic ingredients and miscellaneous goods, so don’t be startled when you see customers come just to buy the ingredients.

Vegan Cafe Thallo (ヴィーガンカフェ タロ)

On the north side of Motomachi Station (元町駅), a hidden gem awaits vegans and gluten-free diners. While the Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, south of the station, can certainly prepare vegetable dishes, avoiding cross-contamination is challenging. So, if you plan to visit Kobe’s Chinatown or Kobe Port, stop by Vegan Café Thallo for their incredible lunch plates and desserts!

The vegan café in Kobe was opened in 2017 by an architect who volunteers to rescue abandoned cats. Although the café has no rescued cats, posters promoting animal welfare and sustainability are part of its décor. The owner also cares a lot about his customers’ health. Thus, she doesn’t use a microwave or a kettle to cook. Moreover, all dishes served at Vegan Café Thallo are allium-free! However, please allow ample time for your order to be served, as everything is freshly prepared.

Tip: If quiche is on the menu, order it. It is the café’s most popular dish.

Vegan Café Thallo has a welcoming atmosphere created by warm lighting and gentle jazz background music. As you walk in, the friendly staff will greet you. They are very accommodating and will ensure you have a great dining experience.

On your way out, grab a couple of vegan snacks made from rice flour! Other vegan products are also on sale.

    • Lunch is by reservation only.
  • The cafe is a 3-minute walk from Motomachi Station (元町駅).

Yidaki Cafe (イダキ カフェ)

Another vegan-friendly spot near Motomachi Station is Yidaki Café. It is a place where you can impress your meat-eating friends with how good plant-based food can taste. Located on the second floor of a building in a back alley, this vegetarian café serves lunch made with mostly organic ingredients. If you are an Aussie, you will find the café’s name familiar. That is correct. The owner named the café Yidaki (also known as Didgeridoo) because he admires Australians’ strong environmental awareness and organic ethos. Therefore, organic vegetables are used whenever possible.

The vegan-friendly café’s interior lives up to its name. Decorated with natural materials like driftwood, it features a natural theme and a turquoise background. The south-facing windows let ample sunlight into the café, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere.

The side dishes on the vegan lunch plate change regularly. In addition to pesticide-free vegetables grown on the owner’s farm, the menu also incorporates organic ingredients and uses additive-free seasonings wherever possible. Although the portions of each side dish and the rice are small, you will be surprised by how full you feel by the time you finish everything! Plus, the chef cooks the soy meat so well that you can hardly tell it is plant-based!

High-quality ingredients are also used to make the desserts. But if you are vegan or don’t eat eggs, check with the staff about which sweets you can have. Yidaki’s coffee, made from home-roasted beans, is also a must-try. If you don’t like coffee, order a cup of soy hot chocolate!

Yidaki Cafe’s Business Hours and Access Information

  • Yidaki Cafe is open from 11 am to 9 pm.
    • Please check the café’s Instagram Account for the days that it opens (marked in red).

  • The cafe is a 5-minute walk from JR Motomachi Station (元町駅).

Riccio d’Oro (リッチョドーロ 本店)

Many of us love gelato, but itis hard to find a gelato maker that uses plant-based ingredients. Fortunately, Riccio d’Oro in Kobe is a gelato specialist that makes gelato without using milk, eggs, or wheat. Instead, plant-based milk is used. Thus, their gelato still tastes rich even when animal fat isn’t used!

Riccio d’Oro’s main store is just a 5-minute walk from Tomako (神戸の創作餃子｜イソガミ餃子バルTOMAKO), a creative gyoza restaurant with a vegan menu. After delicious gyozas, you can visit for amazing gelato as dessert.

The shop’s white wood exterior gives a welcoming vibe. Plus, a cute hedgehog logo is a part of the shop’s sign! In fact, hedgehog motifs can be found throughout the store, making it hard to resist looking for another image once you start looking for them!

Why a hedgehog? Because Ricciod’oro means “golden hedgehog” in Italian. Apparently, in Italy and France, hedgehogs are treated as animals that bring good luck!

If you need something to warm you up after gelato, help yourself to hot water. Black tea can also be ordered.

A dine-in space is also available!

One thing to note is that white sugar is used in Riccio d’Oro’s gelato-making. If you are concerned that Japan’s white sugar isn’t vegan, you might want to avoid the spot.

Riccio d’Oro’s Business Hours and Access Information

  • Riccio d’Oro is open from 1 pm to 6:30 pm on weekends and public holidays.
    • The last order is taken at 6 pm.

Farmstand

Farmstand is a great place to stop by for fresh produce and a delicious lunch plate near Kitano Ijinkan-gai (北野異人館街). The small cafe in the farmer’s market offers tasty lunch plates and desserts made from fresh produce the store buys from local farmers in Kobe. It is the best spot to support the locals! While not all side dishes on the plate are vegan/vegetarian, you can ask the staff for a vegan lunch plate!

Farmstand started as a weekly farmer’s market in Kobe, held on Saturdays. Thanks to the locals’ support, it has grown into a store. The shop sells fresh fruits and vegetables purchased from local farmers. Other products, such as processed foods, baked goods, and beverages, are also available on the shelf. There is also a good range of vegan and vegetarian staples, including plant-based milk, butter, and mayonnaise. Organic goods from Japan and other countries are also available for sale here

The leftover fresh produce is used to cook the next day’s lunch plates. Each side dish on the plate is simple but has a deep flavor. You can definitely taste the freshness of the vegetables used. To minimize food loss, even parts of vegetables that are normally discarded (such as stems) are utilized and made into vegetable stock in Farmstand’s kitchen.

You can also visit Farmstand for morning or afternoon tea. The cakes and organic juice that the staff bake are amazing.

Refer to Farmstand’s Instagram Account for the menu!

Ten-ma Ramen Kobe Gakuentoshi (天馬らぁめん ブランチ神戸学園都市店)

While finding fully inclusive plant-based ramen outside major metropolitan hubs like Tokyo can be challenging, Kobe’s regional scene is taking meaningful steps forward. Located inside the Branch Kobe Gakuentoshi (ブランチ神戸学園都市) commercial complex in Tarumi-ku, local favorite Tenma Ramen has introduced a dedicated plant-based option.

Driven by the surrounding academic community and being close to several major institutions like the Kobe City University of Foreign Studies and the University of Hyogo, the shop developed this menu to warmly welcome international students, local residents, and travelers following diverse dietary lifestyles.

Signature Dish: “Kiwami Tantanmen” (極 担々麺)

Introduced in February 2026, the Vegan Kiwami Tantanmen (極担々麺) gives vegans a place in regional Kobe to enjoy plant-based ramen. The word Kiwami translates to “ultimate,” and this bowl is crafted to deliver a bold, satisfying profile rather than feeling like a compromise:

  • The Broth: A thick, deeply creamy sesame base layered with complex aromatic spices and a rich umami depth.
  • The Flavor Profile: It offers a satisfying balance of warmth and texture, ensuring that meat-eaters and vegans alike can enjoy it side-by-side.

Strict Dietary & Ingredient Transparency

Tenma Ramen has taken commendable care to accommodate strict plant-based guidelines:

  • Completely Free From: Animal-derived ingredients, alcohol-based seasonings, and the Five Pungent Roots (Gokuon: garlic, green onion, chives, shallots, and leeks).
  • Kitchen Note: While the ingredients are strictly plant-based and allium-free, cooking utensils and kitchen equipment are shared with non-vegan menu items.

The Dining Experience

Stepping into the restaurant, you are greeted by a casual, family-friendly, and bustling atmosphere typical of a popular neighborhood ramen spot. Ordering is streamlined and convenient via touch-panel systems, making it easy to navigate even for international travelers who may not speak fluent Japanese.

Because everything is prepared fresh to order, the rich scent of simmering sesame and spices sets the stage for a comforting meal. Sitting down for a hot, creamy bowl of tantanmen here offers a wonderful, worry-free respite after exploring Kobe’s scenic outskirts or coastal spots, proving that Hyogo’s regional food culture is becoming increasingly accessible.

Ten-ma Ramen Kobe Gakuentoshi’s Business Hours and Access Information

VEGAN CAFE Kiu (VEGAN CAFE 喜雨)

Important: VEGAN CAFE Kiu is currently closed until further notice.

If you plan to visit Kitano Ijinkan-gai (北野異人館街) in Kobe, consider having lunch at VEGAN CAFÉ Kiu. It is one of the few traditional Japanese houses, standing in contrast to the retro Western-style neighborhood. The homey atmosphere created by wooden-based furniture and interior design makes dining at Kiu like visiting a friend’s house.

Ⓒ VEGAN CAFE 喜雨

Kiu was renovated from the area’s landlord’s house. To retain this part of the history, signs that people had lived here were preserved during the renovation. This is why the wooden frames and frosted glass windows are all vintage. If you visit Kiu with young children, there is also a small kid’s corner at the far back.

The Food Served at VEGAN CAFE Kiu

All Kiu’s menu is vegan and is prepared using only pesticide-free and organically grown vegetables and seasonings that are gentle on the body.

The café’s owner, Ms. Hassaku (八朔さん), used to love dining out. After switching to organic vegetables and additive-free foods, she noticed an improvement in her health. The more vegetables she eats, the more delicious she finds them, which led her to open a vegan café.

Besides a healthy and delicious lunch menu, Kiu also offers gluten-free homemade sweets made from rice flour! Vegan ice cream is also available!

Ⓒ VEGAN CAFE 喜雨

The café offers two lunch set menus. The batter used for deep-fried savory dishes is made from rice powder, allowing those on a gluten-free diet to enjoy Japan’s famous tempura! While the two main dishes are updated only monthly, the 6 side dishes are changed every day. So even if you dine at Kiu a few days in a row, you won’t get bored with the food!

Kid’s menu is available, too.

You can refer to Kiu’s Menu before visiting.

Tip: Let the staff know if you don’t eat dishes cooked with pungent ingredients, such as garlic. If you have a nut allergy, they can also offer nut-free dishes.
