Vegan in Prague: Sabotage

Two big cheesesteak sandwiches, each in a plastic red basket with red and white checked paper. The sandwiches are huge, filled with seitan and cheese. One is topped with fried onions, the other with red onions and jalapenos

CLOSED 2023

I am not a big sandwich lover because I quite enjoy eating all my different foods separately, but I do occasionally make an exception and indulge. I will always make such an exception for Sabotage, which is a teeny tiny all vegan spot which is regrettably closing at the end of 2023 – so I’m hastily getting this post up now. They have quite a heavily mock meat menu with burgers and hot dogs, but Dr HH and I have only ever tried the cheesesteaks, because they are simply too good to ignore.

I always go for the seitan cheesesteak, pictured above (it’s slightly squashed in the picture immediately above because it’s been tightly wrapped for takeaway – in the top picture you can see it in all its glory). It’s a lovely bun filled with delicious seitan, peppers, onions, cheese, and barbeque sauce. It does contain pickles as well, though I’ve removed them in mine. It is sloppy to eat, I usually slice it into quarters and eat a piece at a time with my hands. To be honest though, it’s worth making a mess with it. Dr HH always goes for the chilli seitan cheesesteak (in the picture at the top of the page), which is the same but with added jalapenos and a chilli sauce instead of a barbeque one. He finds the spice levels just right.

It’s a really small spot – there are a few indoor tables and a few more outside, but it’s not the most scenic of locations. Rather annoyingly, it’s only open 1-6pm on Saturdays and is totally closed on Sundays, so we’ve tended to limit ourselves to week day visits when we can. It’s been one of our staples and there’s nowhere else in Prague doing the same food, so it’s going to be a big loss when they close down. Pay them a visit before the end of the year if you can!

      I don’t think they’re a big thing in Europe and the UK, we don’t really use that term or have anything similar. Maybe they’re gaining in popularity now, there’s one popped up on another vegan menu in Prague!
