As we gear up for World Vegetarian Day on October 1 and World Vegan Day on November 1, it’s a great time to spotlight how South Florida is stepping up for plant-based eaters. Thanks to a recent WalletHub report, we now know just how lucky we are to live in cities like Orlando, Miami, and Tampa, which rank high for vegan and vegetarian options.

Orlando: A Green Wonderland

Did you know Orlando is the second-best city for vegans and vegetarians in the entire country? With a plethora of juice and smoothie bars, abundant vegetable nurseries, and a vibrant festival scene like Central Florida VegFest, this city is a haven for herbivores. Plus, if you’re on a budget, Orlando shines with some of the lowest prices for vegetarian staples—think bananas and cereals that won’t break the bank. The city offers a whopping number of salad shops, making it easier than ever to eat fresh.

Miami: Salad Central

Miami isn’t far behind, landing in the number 8 spot on the list, with the highest concentration of salad shops per capita. With a colorful food scene that celebrates diversity, you’ll find countless restaurants serving up creative vegan and vegetarian dishes that are as delicious as they are Instagrammable. Plus, our local grocery stores offer plenty of fresh produce options, ensuring that plant-based eating is both easy and accessible.

Tampa: A Rising Star

Tampa rounds out our trio landing the #10 spot, offering a vibrant culinary landscape that’s increasingly accommodating to plant-based diets. With numerous eateries serving innovative meatless options and community-supported agriculture programs popping up, it’s becoming a go-to spot for those seeking a healthier lifestyle.
