Just because vegetarians are morally opposed to consuming other sentient beings, doesn’t mean they always enjoy being sentient themselves. Vegetarians are people too, and just like their carnivorous counterparts, they deserve some much needed “me-time” to sit, back, relax, and let the food come to them. We studied more than 300 restaurants in San Francisco that offer vegetarian dishes for delivery or takeout. Using Eat24.com’s database of over 20,000 food eateries, we found the five best neighborhoods in San Francisco for people who want to enjoy meatless deliciousness without leaving the couch.

Hayes Valley

Hayes Valley is in the heart of San Francisco; central to nearly every part of the city, so it’s no surprise it boasts more vegetarian restaurant options than any other area. With plenty of dining and shopping, Hayes has a lot to offer by foot, but if you’d rather enjoy the beauty from indoors, over 85% of restaurants in the area featuring online ordering have something for our vegetarian friends. From tasty meat-free offerings from Red Jade to huge selections of delicious vegetarian curries at India Clay Oven, you’ll have a ton of no-meat yums to choose from.

Downtown

The Financial District has plenty of tourist destinations and restaurants that offer world-class cuisine. But if you don’t want to be a part of three-hour waits for trendy food in tiny, dimly lit rooms, stay home and treat yourself to some in-house vegetarian delights with Eat24. With well over 100 vegetarian online delivery options, Downtown offers much more than just food trucks and tofu carts to feed your vegetable cravings.  Next time you’re in the mood for some meatless late night eats, order some veggie Chinese from Golden Kim Tar, vegetarian sushi from Sushi Hana or try something new at Burmese Kitchen.

Noe Valley

Sporting an equal amount of coffee shops and bistros as well as baby carriages, the “Fertile Crescent” is where many urban professionals, vegetarian or not, start their families. For those meat averse individuals who don’t want to battle the often crowded, stroller-filled sidewalks, there are plenty of vegetarian online delivery options to choose from including veggie Thai from Thailand SF, or some vegetarian Chinese fare from Jasmine Tea House.

SOMA

There’s more to SOMA than just start-up companies with giant ball pits in their lobbies. Being home to hundreds of workers burning the midnight oil makes it the ideal location for late night online orders. Luckily for our hard working veggie all-nighters, there are many vegetarian online delivery options from Eat24 including sandwiches, salads, and even some veggie and vegan friendly pizza from DNA Pizza and Z Pizza.

Mission

Hipsters rejoice! Now you can get some tasty veggie noms delivered to your doorstep while you kick back, sip your PBR, and listen to that band no one’s ever heard of on your killer record player. The Mission is renowned for it’s Mexican food, and is the birthplace to the famous “Mission-Style Burrito.” Luckily for our veggie friends, you can find vegetarian burritos, quesadillas and tacos to munch on from Estrella Taqueria. Just try not to spill any of those tasty vegetables on your vintage flannel.
