Looking for upscale vegan cuisine? Then Marmalade is your jam. Get it? :) Spiced chickpea sausage, hand rolled black truffle pasta, and spaghetti squash red curry ramen definitely make this the most interesting (and delicious) vegan-friendly restaurant in Old San Juan, though prepare to spend $75-100 per person. Wine pairing is also available.

The vegan breakfast platter (tofu scramble, veggie sausage, and toast) is the best vegan breakfast you’ll find in Old San Juan simply because breakfast tends to be the hardest for vegans. For lunch or dinner, vegan Bolognese, tacos, and tofu round out the menu. The location is convenient, which is why so many blogs list this as one of “the best” vegan restaurants in San Juan, but the food is pretty basic.

If you’re stuck with meat eaters that refuse to go to an all-veg place, then you can find vegan mofongo and vegan piña coladas at Barrachina. It’s not the best vegan mofongo you’ll find in the city but the restaurant is the birthplace of the piña colada so it’s a good compromise for mixed groups.

Vegan donuts? Yes, please! Technically, Kudough’s isn’t exactly in Condado, it’s just outside, but it’s right between Condado and Santurce so it’s the perfect place to grab dessert after eating in either neighborhood (vegan desserts aren’t so plentiful in most restaurants). Flavors rotate but keep your eye out for vegan chocolate almond, toasted coconut, and passion fruit donuts! Want more than just dessert? Check out their big burger and other vegan entrees.
