Hug In Monza

The HUG Bistro restaurant in Monza is one of the vegan restaurants in Brianza that absolutely must be tried. Here you can enjoy burgers, focaccia, meatballs, arancini, mozzarella, falafel, desserts, and much more, all purely vegan and truly delicious. The atmosphere is refined, bright, and the service is friendly. Updated December 2025 The restaurant is now located on Via Bergamo, still in Monza, in a busier area, inside the Turnè restaurant. The menu is more varied, including a business lunch, and they have added delicious vegan pizzas, large ones with crispy crusts, salads, and plant-based dishes, such as seitan and vegan burgers. Quiet, family-friendly atmosphere. The vegan Margherita pizza is very good.

Fantastic discovery. They also have an entire vegan menu, packed with super delicious and tasty items. Homemade vegan cheeses and unrefined flours. Amazing! High-quality food, super pleasant location, and friendly staff. Super inclusive and forward-thinking. I can't wait to come back to try more!

I hadn't been to Hug in years, and in fact, I hadn't realized it's now located on a different street and merged with Turné. The girl explained to us that it was a collaborative idea to offer both an animal-based and a completely plant-based menu. Hug's menu is full of creative and tasty recipes. My friends and I tried the mixed appetizers: I had the Nemo burger, they had the pizzoccheri, and then the cheese-fakes and the tiramisu. Being vegan already earns 1,000 points, but I wanted to point out a few very small changes to improve the quality and flavor of the dishes served: the appetizers were very good; the Nemo burger had too much mayonnaise, so much that you couldn't taste the other ingredients; the pizzoccheri were good; the cheese-fakes were too cold/frozen and you couldn't taste the "cheese" part. The rest of the prices were considerable, but in 2025, everything costs a lot in any restaurant or venue, and for such a lavish dinner, that's perfectly reasonable. Thank you for your kindness and friendliness. It was a wonderful evening and a great place to eat with non-vegans and let them sample these wonderful dishes.

I expected something more in terms of flavour for the veg dishes, the staff was friendly.
