One of Mexico City's oldest vegetarian restaurants, Yug Vegetariano first opened in 1963. Today its meat-free Mexican fare remains as delicious as ever - head here for breakfast dishes piled high with tortillas, eggs, soy-based sausages and homemade bread.

On the corner of Manzanillo and Chiapas, this streetside stand sells vegan fare bursting with flavour. Gorge on tacos packed with jackfruit, cauliflower and other meat-free fillings, and finish with a scoop of Oaxacan ice cream.

Offering a 100 per cent vegan menu, Forever Vegan guarantees locally sourced, cruelty-free dishes that don't skimp on flavour. Try the Al Pastor taco for tortillas filled with mushrooms, onions, pineapple and coriander, or the Baja cauliflower for tempura cauliflower topped with avocado, chipotle mayonnaise and pico de gallo.

Head to this café for a hearty vegetarian brunch featuring crispy homemade falafel and sandwiches packed with grilled vegetables - the perfect fuel for exploring Mexico City. Pair with a cup of coffee with your choice of dairy-free milk.

Nestled among a verdant green garden, El Jardín Interior is the place to feast on everything from enchiladas and empanadas to chilaquiles and chili rellenos (stuffed peppers). Work off your meal with a gentle stroll through the restaurant's gardens and a browse in the health shop.

This vegan taqueria is a haven for snap-happy Instagrammers. Picture-perfect almond-milk ice cream and breakfast bowls of chopped fruit and grains perch on tabletops throughout the day - but come at lunch to try the bright-pink tortillas drizzled with cashew cream.

This vegetarian restaurant isn't hard to spot - bright orange-and-turquoise exteriors demand attention, while the gently wafting aroma of freshly cooked food follows shortly after. Dine on veggie lasagna, chilaquiles or scrambled eggs with homemade bread, all made with organic, locally sourced ingredients.
