Newark Liberty International Airport Vegan Guide (2024) (2024)

Walking through the Newark Liberty International Airport and looking for some good vegan options?

You are in the right place!

This guide is designed to give you the best vegan options in each terminal of the Newark Liberty Airport.

We did find a lot more local restaurants inside the airport, but couldn’t determine which, if any, offered good vegan options. If you know of any good options that we’re missing, please reach out and let us knowso we can improve this guide!

Vegan Options at Newark Liberty Airport

Many chain location names are clickable and will take you to the complete vegan guide for that restaurant.

Terminal A

Jersey Mike’s (Terminal A Food Court)

Jersey Mike’s recently unveiled a new Grilled Portabella & Swiss Sub. Obviously, omit the swiss cheese and make sure to get the sub on either Wheat or Seeded Italian Bread. A pretty good upgrade from just having to order lettuce and tomatoes on bread!

Playa Bowls (Terminal A Food Court)

Oh so many fresh fruit bowl & smoothie options here. Check our Playa Bowls guide to know which bases are vegan and how to modify the bowls.

Ess-A-Bagel (Gate 15)

A VeggL user let us know that Ess-A-Bagel offers vegan-friendly bagels and vegan cream cheese. You will need to ask which bagels are your vegan options when visiting.

Thank you for this info, Tara!

–>Be aware that a few days after we shared this information, another VeggL user stopped by and they said they do not have vegan bagels to go with their vegan cream cheese. We do not know what to make of this so you will still need to ask.

Dunkin (A24)

Multiple bagels (like Everything and Cinnamon Raisin) are available. Avocado Toast and Hashbrowns make Dunkin a decent choice.

Dunkin’ also now offers both oat and almond milk (with an extra charge) which makes many coffee combinations possible.

Smokehouse BBQ (Gates 26/27)

A VeggL user let us know that Smokehouse BBQ has a small vegan section on their menu with Vegan Wings (mushroom based) and a vegan sausage dog.

Thank you for the info, Jennifer!

Thank you for the info, Armin!

Vino Volo (In the Connector Towards B60)

We suggest asking what options are or can be made vegan but we were told you can order Avocado Toast, Avocado & Beet salad (minus the feta), and Truffle popcorn without the butter (ask them for a little extra truffle oil instead).
