Very useful!

I’ve used this app in Canada, Iceland, and Europe snd found it very helpful in choosing a place to eat. It gives an idea of the cost as well which is great. I’ve never had a glitch or any problems at all with it.

Best app on planet earth, no better food out there

Love this App

I made a trip up the coast and this app was invaluable.

Great for finding vegan food

Happy Cow helps me find vegan food wherever I am in the world. It has been very useful.

Lifesaver

This is genuinely my go to travel app. I love the community and being able to check pre-vetted restaurants for vegan options when I cannot be bothered to try and look for something in a new place.

When travelling with friends and we are looking for a place to eat they always ask me to look at my “vegan app” so that we can easily find an establishment that works for me quickly. I love how veg option restaurants are labelled differently to veggie/vegan restaurants as it also makes it easier to find stuff when im out with my omnivore friends who dont feel adventurous enough to try vegan food and allows me to quickly locate vegan restaurants when im dining solo.

I love this app so much, it is the only place where I post reviews. I love being part of the community and able to contribute to vegans finding better food options without stress.

Complete game changer

HappyCow makes it possible to thrive as a vegan traveler. I use it all the time and it’s such a fantastic addition to my life—it’s honestly the biggest reason I don’t get a “dumb” phone!

Would be 5 stars if I could give 5 stars

App would be so much better if I could give non vegetarian/vegan exclusive restaurants 5 stars.

Sad vegan

While I find this app useful as a longtime vegan to find restaurants, especially in unfamiliar areas. I realize that they only allow a 4 star max rating review to restaurants that are not 100% vegetarian or vegan. Most of the restaurants that I frequent offer vegan options, but certainly aren’t 100%. That said, I have time and time again glossed over restaurants due to their lower rating. I recently ate the best meal ever at Nanyea Ethiopian in a conservative white town thanks to a second opinion from Google. As I spoke with the owner, she struggles to get customers through the door, but once they do, they are lifers. I am now too! However, I almost missed this opportunity because of the weighted lower rating from a handful of customers. Not only is this a disservice to those of us that eat within this framework, but it hurts small business owners, especially those that already have a disadvantage.

They removed countries visited

Bet there’s been a decline in use now and people won’t bother updating their travel food. What a stupid marketing mistake from this company.

Life saver

I love you happy cow

An amazing resource I’ve used for 20 years!

I love Happy Cow and am so happy to have it. The app works well, and is a constant lifesaver - especially when traveling.

The best

We have been using the Happy Cow app for 20+ years and even in the most remote places, it has helped us find delicious vegan meals. Thank you to the folks at Happy Cow for all their hard work to keep vegans around the world happy and well-fed!

Necessity when travelling

I have been travelling in Canada and would be lost without HappyCow, especially in Quebec and Montreal.

Best app

A+

Happy Cow Is The Best!!!

Thankful for this guide…

Meat everywhere

This is a pitiful selection of restaurants that serve mostly meat but have a $12 boring salad at the bottom of the menu. Worthless to me.

Reliable

Very handy!

Where to eat if you don’t want meat

The best. The only. If you’re a veggie or a vegan or if you’re trying to find somewhere to eat with your veggie or vegan friends there is simply no better app to use.

Helpful

Very helpful app, especially when traveling.
Great community of contributors
