Veg e Veg
Vegetarian and vegan fast food inside Florence’s Mercato Centrale, with burgers, bowls, salads, soups and fresh juices.
Veg e Veg is the plant-forward pit stop inside Florence’s Mercato Centrale, where the first-floor food hall can feel like both salvation and sensory ambush. Current listings place Veg & Veg at Piazza del Mercato Centrale, offering vegetarian and vegan food with burgers, baked potatoes, soups, salads, juices and other quick dishes.
The source copy celebrates its burger range, especially the Veneto, Campano and Siciliano, and the broader promise still fits: this is casual market dining for vegetarians and vegans who do not want to build lunch from side dishes. Independent vegan and vegetarian listings also mention poke-style bowls, wok dishes, lasagna, parmigiana-style vegetables and other ready-to-heat or made-to-order options, though vegan labelling can vary by dish.
The setting is part of the appeal. You can sit amid the market’s cheerful clatter, watch Florence feed itself, and then step back into the city fuelled by something greener than another cheese-heavy compromise.
Veg e Veg is not a hushed destination restaurant. It is fast, central and useful, which in a city as busy as Florence counts as its own kind of luxury. Ask what is fully vegan, order accordingly, and enjoy being difficult in the easiest possible place.
