What To Expect
Tucked away in a small street, it's easily overlooked. Life’s A Peach is like stepping into someone’s cozy kitchen—if that someone were a passionate Italian chef who swapped dairy for creativity. Everything here is 100% plant-based, with focaccias and pastries that make you forget all about cream or cheese. Owner Vanessa cooks with love, using seasonal, local ingredients that make each bite feel like a little celebration. You don’t just eat here—you feel good doing it.
In the city's heart, Copper Branch is your go-to for quick, healthy meals without compromise. Originating in Canada, this global chain brings power bowls, stacked burgers and vibrant smoothies to the heart of Utrecht. Everything on the menu is fully vegan, allergy-conscious and packed with whole-food goodness. Ideal for a breakfast on the move, a lunch break between meetings, or a dinner that fuels you without slowing you down.

5.00None of us are actually vegan and everything we ate was super delicious! Also our guide had some interesting facts to share for Utrecht and made the tour super entertaining. Of course Utrecht is also just beautiful so all in all it was very recommendable experience!

5.00Today I did the VforFood Tour in Utrecht. Initiator and guide Daisy can inspire like no other. She told great stories about the entrepreneurs we visited (we made no less than seven stops to eat) and she also knew how to tell a lot of fun facts about Utrecht. This tour is highly recommended (also to join only). You will learn a lot about vegan food and why you could make the switch. And the food was heavenly so what more could you want?! Highly recommended.
Super fun experience
