Where to Eat Like a Star in Koh Samui
Koh Samui, the stunning backdrop for The White Lotus, isn’t just paradise for luxury seekers—it’s also a haven for vegan food lovers. From flavorful street food to gourmet vegan dining, PETA Asia’s 2025 Best Vegan Eats Awards reveal the top spots where you can eat like a star, guilt-free.
Koh Samui’s Vegan A-List
For the ultimate cruelty-free retreat, Kapuhala Koh Samui stands out as the island’s first and only vegan resort. Blending luxury with sustainability—and, of course, exceptional vegan cuisine—it offers an unforgettable experience that’s as indulgent as it is compassionate.
For an elevated dining experience, W Koh Samui takes home the award for Best Vegan Afternoon Tea, pairing sustainability with exquisite flavors. If ocean views are a must, Alchemy, winner of Best Vegan Beachfront Dining, serves up delicious cruelty-free dishes with breathtaking scenery.

Recognized for its affordability and quality, Penne takes home the award for Best Value for Money, making ethical and sustainable dining accessible to all. For the brunch crowd, Pure Vegan Heaven has been crowned Best Vegan Brunch Spot for its diverse and nourishing menu, while Beach Coconut Bowls wins Best Vegan Smoothie Bowls for its beautifully presented, nutrient-packed creations that highlight the natural freshness of vegan ingredients.
Koh Samui also has plenty to offer those with a sweet tooth! Two Sisters takes the prize for Best Vegan Cakes, thanks to its innovative approach to cruelty-free baking, while Veganissimo wins Best Vegan Desserts for its masterfully scrumptious vegan takes on traditional treats.
Koh Samui’s vegan food scene also delivers when it comes to traditional flavors and street-style eats. Sweet Sisters wins Best Vegan Dish for its Crispy Mushroom and Spinach Laab, a reimagined take on the classic Thai favorite. Meanwhile, street food enthusiasts can head to Happy Vegan, winner of Best Vegan Street Food, where vegan ingredients are used to create delicious cruelty-free versions of classic street food favorites.
