With veganism on the rise, it's no wonder that cultural-hub that is Orlando is absolutely thriving with vegan options. From quick-bite restaurants to bakeries and coffee shops, here is a list of vegan-friendly places around Orlando, you should check out!

1. Market On South (home to Dixie Dharma and Valhalla Bakery).

2603 E South St, Orlando, FL 32803

While Dixie Dharma shares the same roof as Valhalla Bakery, there is no having to choose between them when one offers savory foods and the other offers desserts! Dixie Dharma is 100% Vegan and I've heard that their Carolina BBQ Pulled Jackfruit gives true pulled pork BBQ vibes!

It is worth noting that Valhalla states that they are not gluten-free, but they are egg-free, dairy-free, and all around vegan.
