Vegab

Vegab is a small fast-food stop in Krakow built around plant-based street food. The pitch is simple: a quick vegan kebab or a falafel wrap to eat on the move between sights, with none of the meat. It is a grab-and-go option rather than a sit-down restaurant, and a handy marker for anyone eating meat-free in the city.

The menu centres on vegan kebabs and falafel wraps, the meat-free take on the street-food staple, built from plant proteins with salad and sauces. It is fast, filling and made to carry, and it lands cheaper than a sit-down meal. For the current line-up and prices, check the venue's own channels.

Counter service and a quick turnaround, with little or no seating. This is somewhere you order, wait a few minutes and walk on rather than settle in, so it fits a day spent mostly on foot. Expect a small, no-frills setup geared to speed rather than comfort.

Best for vegans and vegetarians who want fast food, for anyone on a budget, and for a quick refuel in the middle of a walking day. It is not a place for a leisurely meal or a group sit-down.

It makes an easy stop between Old Town sights. For a sit-down vegetarian meal with a broader menu, see Glonojad by Plac Matejki. For coffee nearby, try Karma Coffee, and for a longer lunch of Polish classics, Pod Wawelem serves big traditional plates. More food ideas are in the Krakow guide.

Vegab is at ul. Starowiślna 8, on the street that runs from the centre down towards Kazimierz, so it is an easy stop when walking between the two. Alongside the vegan kebab, the counter runs to vegan hot dogs, and the wraps carry their own names, among them one called the Hamster, built from salad and sauces.

It works mainly as a takeaway, with a little seating if you want to eat in, and queues are common at busy times. Current prices and opening hours are best checked through Vegab's official channels.
