Vegan Sicilian café - Edit
This place has all the things you would expect to find in a Sicilian café/deli, but vegan. Arancini are sold out pretty quickly, but they prepare multiple batches every day. You just need a bit of luck and some perseverance.

AMAZING - Edit
Couldn’t recommend this place enough! Full of typical italian/sicilian sweets and desserts, we ordered a box full of them and it tasted like home. This is paradise for vegans!! Besides the cakes and sweet they also have meals. And yes it’s all 100% vegan!!

Pistachio desert to die for! - Edit
Delicious vegan pastries, deserts and ice cream. The pistachio cream/cake/pudding was one of the best things I've tasted ever! Coffee was also very good. Stop by to try the different traditional Italien snacks!
Read moreVegan menu for lunch and a supermarket section with vegan products. There are meat and fish options for lunch as well, but they mostly serve vegan food.
Pros: Very big variety of vegan dishes , Very reasonable prices

You REALLY MUST have breakfast here - Edit
This bar proposes traditional Sicilian pastries but as vegan. I had a dreamy “graffa”, I was about to cry eating it. I will definitely go there again the next time I will be in Catania.

Highly recommend- but not fully vegan - Edit
I very strongly recommend any vegan to go here and don’t want it to lose its vegan listing or else it will disappear into the sea of ‘veg options’ places when it is something special! For the come options at lunch there was a vegan menu with seitan and tofu dishes 10 options but they had an equivalent non vegan menu. All baked goods are vegan and delicious!
Read morePros: selection of Sicilian savoury and sweet items , Very good price, Freshly prepared vegan lunch menu
Cons: Not entirely vegan but 90% is!

Really tasty, veganized traditional pastries and more - Edit
The 4 different pastries we tried were great, th tiramisu and canollo were good too. They also have a huge variety of lunch options, but only from 12:30-14:30, so unfortunately we couldn't try any.

Amazing Brioche! - Edit
Came here at opening on a Saturday morning at 7. We got espressos and 2 cookies (okay) and we’re about to leave when we saw giant brioche. We took one to go as we had plans for granita elsewhere. As we walked away and ate the still warm brioche, we regretted not doing granita and brioche there. Amazingly delicious, warm, and slightly fruity floral note - maybe orange? And everything was vegan!
Read moreToo bad their cannoli weren’t available in the morning. We asked and they said it was an afternoon item. We saw a bunch of pastries that were just baked but not yet out on display.
Highly recommend
Pros: All vegan , Giant brioche
Cons: Not all items available at opening

Sicily bakery, gelateria, restaurant and small grocery store - Edit
Amazing place outside of the main city center. If you are in search for traditional sicilian, or italian food you've got the right Adress. They have ice cream, a bakery with traditional sweet and croissants. In the midday you can have lunch and eat all sorts of traditional pasta. If you want to have something for the way, they got you covered with a small grocery store kind of thing. There you can buy chips, soy milk and other small things. All vegan. Very friendly service.

Incredible cafe and very well priced. We’ll be coming here every day! - Edit
The food is beyond good, it’s so yummy. I’m pretty sure this place is 100% vegan - and if it’s not, then it’s definitely just off completely vegan. The food is also really nice and it’s so well done.

Bar Dolcezza - 5 Stars - Edit
This place is definitely all vegan and extra delicious! I sent an update to HC after speaking with the staff, so keep in mind everyone was limited to 4 stars in the past since it was labeled veg-friendly. This place definitely exceeds 5 stars for me!
Read moreIt’s a little bit away from the main tourist areas but well worth the extra walk. This places is jam packed with traditional Sicilian foods and baked goods made 100% vegan. They also sell vegan cheese and lots of vegan packaged baked goods. They also advertise vegan everywhere (all over the walls, on napkins, inside the food cases, outside) and they also advertise a vegan app (not HC) on every table.
I absolutely loved the savory item I got which was filled with sliced potatoes, vegan cheese, and olives … I could eat these everyday!!! I wish I knew the name of it. See photo with the heart I added.
The Baba dessert with rice cream was astonishing! It was like gulab jamun with sweet alcohol flavor. I haven’t had gulab jamun in at least 16 years and this cool “vegan cousin” version was even better.
I also got both vegan cannolis and a pistachio biscuit and enjoyed them. But I favored the savory treat and the baba.

this place is beyond awesome!! - Edit
They have very many vegan options (sweet&savoury), I went there several times and everything I ate was extremely delicious! Best things I have ever eaten, and they are not even expensive! If you are in Catania this place is a must!! Only bad thing was that the staff can’t speak English and I can’t speak Italian, but they were friendly and we could make it work :).

Typical Sicilian specialties in vegan - Edit
We went to Bar Dolcezza three times during our stay in Catania. As you can tell, we loved this place!
Read moreMost of the food is vegan and everything is well declared. They offer a broad range of typical Sicilian specialities like cannoli, brioche and arancini and offer a menu of hot and cold dishes for lunchtime.
We tried the cannoli with cream filling, a pistachio and a chocolate cake-like desert, brioche with gelato and the Pasta Norma with vegan cheese on top.
We also tried an arancino with ragu filling and a cornetto, a croissant-like pastry with cream filling (unfortunately we didn’t take pictures of these).
The place is a bit off the main city center, but absolutely worth a try!
Pros: Many vegan options , typical sicilian specialties , Fair pricing

Best vegan treats in Catania - Edit
Dio mio, im so happy we spotted this place. Being vegan can be a challenge in Catania especially when you want to indulge in authentic Sicilian cuisine. This place has it all. We tried a bit and even the non-vegan said the sweets were better than and cannoli he had so far. Def recommend to check it out, even though it’s not quite central.
Read morePros: All vegan , Classic vegan cuisine
Cons: A bit out of the central part, Staff could have been slightly more smiling😄

Good Spot - Edit
I've been there for a quick lunch during my holidays and considering how difficult could be to find Vegan "Tavola Calda" in Sicily, i have been very happy with my choice. You can find a good selection of Arancini, Cipolline, Scacciate, Cartocciate, all clearly labelled vegan and quite tasty. They have few different first and second dishes that unfortunately i didnt try. Sweets are nice too. Reccomended.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Fair prices
