Victoria named Canada's most vegan-friendly city

Veggies, nuts, tofu…though these are some of the first items that come to mind when thinking of eating plant-based, they only make up the tip of the iceberg in the vegan food scene.

Underneath, there are thousands of exciting flavours to try, creating an atmosphere that challenges the way we eat and think about food—from finding new ways of enjoying classic dishes to introducing completely new flavours to our palettes.

And as it turns out, there’s no better place in Canada to explore quality plant-based food than Victoria.

With over 140 vegan restaurants and meal services available (49 vegan restaurants per 100,000 people) Victoria has recently been named the country’s most vegan-friendly city by BonusFinder Canada. Data from Tripadvisor, a website that tracks restaurant activity and reviews, shows that Victoria has the top spot on the website’s “vegan friendly” scale with a total score of 8/10, officially making it a top destination for vegans in Canada.
