Local foodies of the greener persuasion have been getting some love lately, with four plant-based eateries opening in the past few months. Check out the following to get your fill of vegetarian and vegan goodness.
Botanical Fare: This downtown lunch spot fulfills your daily servings of fruits and veggies with its soups, sandwiches, and Insta-worthy bowls like the Crunchy Cauliflower, with white beans, mango, and cauliflower nugs.
Vegan Comforts Soul Food: Who says comfort food can’t be vegan? Inspired by her daughter’s dietary restrictions, owner Casandra Rodriguez whips up mouthwatering batches of biscuits and gravy, lasagna, and “Mac no cheese,” 100 percent vegan and allergy-friendly. Catch the pop-up locations around town.
GRNBRGR: No diet’s complete without the all-American classic, and Dairy Market’s GRNBRGR is committed to making burgers better. Each one—from the Street Double to the Bacon Ranch—is vegetarian and “easily vegan.”
Organic Krush Lifestyle Eatery: The East Coast chain comes to Stonefield, serving up all-day breakfast, bone broth, and bowls, as well as an impressive array of smoothies and juices.
