Find your next vegan meal in Bochum
Breakfast with resident cats, Korean kimbap, a plant-based burrito or a burger evening — four different stops with menus, practical notes and optional photos and maps.
This guide to vegan restaurants in Bochum distinguishes vegan food menus from mixed kitchens. Blondies serves vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes; it is included as a vegan-friendly alternative, not a fully vegan restaurant.
Looking for vegan food in Bochum? Decide whether you need a morning café meal, a focused takeaway order or a longer evening visit.

Katzentempel — Bochum
City centre · Huestraße
A central café-style meal with a different setting
Katzentempel combines a vegan food menu with resident cats in the dining room. The Bochum branch links its own menu and reservations, making it the morning-oriented option in this selection. Check the current food offer instead of assuming that dishes pictured at another branch are available here.
Before you visit: Reserve the Bochum location and follow the staff's rules around the cats. Contact the team before booking when animal allergies or other access requirements could affect your visit.
Highlights: A vegan café meal with a branch-specific booking route.

Kimbap Spot
Ostring · Bochum
Korean soul food with rolls, bowls and soups
Kimbap Spot describes its cooking as plant-based, with Korean-inspired kimbap rolls, bibimbap and ramen soups. It is a focused alternative to the guide's café and burger options. Use the current menu to decide between a roll-based order and a warm bowl, then check sauces and spice levels with the team.
Before you book: The operator accepts reservation enquiries by email. Published opening is mainly in the evening, and last orders are at 21:00. Do not plan an early lunch using the restaurant's general food description alone.
Highlights: A dedicated plant-based Korean-inspired meal.

Zum kleinen Esel
Universitätsstraße · Bochum
A substantial order built around a tortilla
Zum kleinen Esel's merchant menu labels its starters and burritos vegan and includes quesadillas with plant-based fillings. Beans, tofu and cheese alternatives provide several ways to build a meal. The website is a Lieferando-operated ordering page, not an independent restaurant review.
Before you order: Read the complete dish description and confirm collection or dine-in arrangements. A dish named Breakfast Club does not establish morning opening; the published delivery timetable is not a verified restaurant seating schedule.
Highlights: Vegan-labelled burritos, quesadillas and sides.
| Information | Details |
|---|---|
| Vegan status | Vegan-labelled food on the restaurant's merchant menu. |
| Address | Universitätsstraße 79 44789 Bochum, Germany |
| Opening hours | A complete current dine-in schedule was not verified. The merchant contact page lists delivery times separately. |
| Menu source | Restaurant ordering website operated by Lieferando. |
Blondies
Hattinger Straße · Bochum
An evening option for diners with different preferences
Blondies explicitly offers vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes. Its website highlights burgers and Thai curries, making it an alternative for a group that does not need an entirely vegan kitchen. Select a vegan-labelled dish and check any changes rather than treating the whole menu as plant-based.
How to order vegan: Confirm sauces, toppings and sides with the main. Kitchen service ends at 21:00 even though the restaurant closes later; plan an evening order accordingly.
Highlights: Mixed-menu dining with vegan choices.
| Information | Details |
|---|---|
| Vegan status | Mixed restaurant with vegan dishes; not fully vegan. |
| Address | Hattinger Straße 80 44789 Bochum, Germany |
| Published hours | Wed–Sat 17:30–22:00; Sun 17:00–22:00. Monday and Tuesday closed. |
| Kitchen | Until 21:00. Menu and reservations are linked on the operator website. |
Vegan breakfast and brunch in Bochum
Choose a genuine morning stop
Katzentempel is the breakfast-oriented choice here. Check the local menu and reserve the correct branch rather than assuming that every café in a restaurant group serves the same dishes throughout the day.
Do not infer hours from a dish name
A breakfast-style burrito can be served later in the day. Confirm actual opening and kitchen times before planning an early meal, and keep afternoon or evening venues in their own part of your itinerary.
For a leisurely breakfast, allow time for a seated meal and leave the next food stop flexible. A restaurant shortlist is most useful when it helps you choose, not when it turns every listed business into an appointment.
Plan your Bochum food stops
Save the street number
Use the full address from each profile when checking a route or arranging a meeting. Similar business names and older listings can lead to the wrong location; do not use a restaurant's name alone as the destination.
Allow for the kitchen cutoff
Check when food orders finish, not only when the dining room closes. For a visit after an event or close to a train connection, contact the venue before committing to a late meal.
Use current menu prices and compare the actual order, including sides and drinks. Delivery fees and platform availability do not describe the cost or hours of a seated restaurant visit. No live booking availability, queue length or journey time is guaranteed here.

Frequently asked questions
Are all four places fully vegan?
No. The selection includes plant-based food concepts and vegan-labelled merchant menus, but Blondies explicitly serves vegan, vegetarian and meat dishes. Read the individual badges rather than applying one label to every restaurant.
Where can I find Korean-inspired vegan food?
Kimbap Spot presents a plant-based Korean-inspired menu with rolls, bowls and soups. Check its current food and service pages for your intended visit.
Which profile is suitable for a breakfast plan?
Katzentempel is the morning-oriented venue in this selection. A breakfast-themed dish elsewhere does not prove that the restaurant opens in the morning.
Are the ordering-platform hours dine-in hours?
Not necessarily. Zum kleinen Esel's linked contact page describes delivery availability. The profile therefore does not present it as a verified weekly dine-in timetable.
Can I use the guide without Google Maps?
Yes. Descriptions, addresses and ordinary links remain available. Optional embedded photos and maps require consent; photographs do not establish whether a particular dish is vegan.
Research notes and image information
Researched on 30 September 2026. Sources include official restaurant and branch websites and Zum kleinen Esel's Lieferando-operated merchant menu. The latter's complete current dine-in hours were not verified. The source links appear beside the relevant profiles.

Vegan descriptions are not allergy or cross-contact guarantees. The existing featured food image is an editorial illustration, not a verified restaurant dish photograph.
