Vegit alternative · Barcelona
Looking for an alternative to Vegit?
Vegit is one of Barcelona's best plant-based lunch operators — Laurie and Fabio cook genuinely creative vegan and vegetarian food and deliver it the same morning. HealthyFoodBCN runs a different model: a private chef building a full-week plan around your household, plant-based, mixed, or anywhere in between.
Vegit deserves the reputation it has. Laurie and Fabio built a vegetarian and vegan kitchen that takes the cooking seriously — paella, lasagna, falafel, curry, tacos all done plant-based, with 4.9 stars from a real (small but recent) Google review base. If you want a creative vegetarian lunch delivered fresh that morning, in Barcelona, they're hard to beat. So the comparison isn't whether Vegit is good at what it does — it is. The question is whether a same-day lunch delivery is what you actually need, or whether you'd rather have your whole week planned and cooked around you. HealthyFoodBCN does the second version, and we handle plant-based plans, mixed households, and everything in between.

Where Vegit wins
- 100% vegan and vegetarian kitchen — the food is built for plant-based eaters, not retrofitted from a meat-led menu
- Same-day, made-that-morning lunch delivery — fresher than weekly subscription models
- Strong corporate catering offer for vegetarian-friendly offices, plus events
- Genuinely creative menu — burgers, paella, lasagna, curry, tacos done plant-based, not the usual buddha-bowl monoculture
Where HealthyFoodBCN wins
- Full-day, full-week coverage — breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner across the week. Vegit is lunch only.
- Plan is built around you specifically (calories, training, family makeup, allergies), not picked from today's lunch menu.
- Frank Diaz handles vegan and vegetarian plans, and also fish, meat, and mixed-household menus when each plate is different. Vegit can't cover a household where one person eats fish or meat.
- Five languages including Catalan, Russian and Ukrainian. Vegit operates in two.
- Delivered twice a week with a chef relationship — not a daily lunch-window scramble.
HealthyFoodBCN is for someone who wants their full week handled — breakfast, snacks, lunch, dinner — built around their actual goals and household. We do plant-based plans well; we also do mixed households, where one person is vegetarian and another isn't, because every plate is cooked individually. We charge more per day than Vegit's à la carte lunches because we cover the whole eating day, with one named chef behind it.
The price math
Vegit's lunches start at €9.50, so a typical weekday lunch every day is roughly €47–60/week for one person, lunch only. HealthyFoodBCN's full day runs about €60/person/day, roughly €300 across a 5-day week for breakfast, snack, lunch and dinner. So we cost more, and more per plate: Vegit is one shared lunch menu you pick from, while Frank cooks a full personalized plan around your macros, allergies and household. The honest read: if you only want lunch and you want it vegetarian, Vegit is cheaper and the cleaner fit. If you want every meal of the day covered by a chef who can mix plant-based with fish or meat plates per family member, that wider coverage and personalization is what the higher price buys.
Best-fit recommendation
Stay with Vegit if you want excellent vegetarian or vegan lunches delivered fresh that morning, you order day-by-day, and you don't need the rest of the day handled. Try us if you want every meal of the week handled, the plan built around your real goals, and a chef who can cook plant-based and mixed-household plans equally well.
Common questions
Does HealthyFoodBCN do fully vegan or vegetarian plans?
Yes. Frank builds plant-based plans for clients who eat that way exclusively, and mixed plans for households where one person is vegetarian and another isn't — because every plate is cooked individually, that's straightforward for us in a way it isn't for batch-cooked services.
Can Vegit cover dinner or breakfast?
Vegit is built around lunch — same-day ordering, delivery 12:45–14:00. They also do event catering. They don't run a full-day or full-week subscription model. HealthyFoodBCN does breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner if you want full-day coverage.
Is Vegit cheaper than HealthyFoodBCN?
Yes. Vegit starts at €9.50 a lunch; HFB is roughly €20–22 per meal because Frank cooks a full personalized plan rather than a shared lunch menu. They're different products: Vegit is a cheap vegetarian lunch off a list, we cover the whole eating day around your household. If you only want lunch, Vegit is the cheaper, cleaner fit.
Can I switch from Vegit without committing long-term?
Yes. No contract, one week's notice, pause for travel. Several clients run us alongside their existing services for a couple of weeks to compare before deciding.
