Newark Liberty International Airport Vegan Guide (2026)

Newark Liberty Airport Vegan Options

Walking through the Newark Liberty International (EWR) Airport, in New Jersey, and looking for some good vegan options? You are in the right place!

This guide is broken down by terminals, then location (gate numbers, if applicable). I also share a bit of info on what you can order, link our full vegan guides for most of the chain restaurants and/or information our VeggL’ers have provided.

We did find a lot more local restaurants inside this airport. And with the airport’s website not providing menus, we may be missing vegan options. If you happen to stop by any and learn of locations we are missing, please let us knowOpens in a new tab.!
