El Cactus Veggie-Vegan
18 W. Pacific Ave.
Henderson, NV 89015
This all-vegan Mexican restaurant has tacos to be sure, but also pambazo, albondigas, guajolotas, and more! The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, and the flavors are amazing. Their aim is to make you feel like at you’re at your abuelitas house!

Heart Choices Café
4127 6 St. NE
Calgary, AB T2E 6V5 Canada
This place has great choices, whether you’re looking for a hot sandwich or a curry. Choices include green and yellow curries, satay skewers, Beyond burgers, and French dip sandwiches. Everything is 100% vegan, including the poutine and the mac and cheese!

Rabbits Café
555 SW Oak St., Ste. 6
Portland, OR 97204
Rabbits Cafe is a small breakfast and lunch spot that you may have to search for, as it’s located inside the Bancorp Tower on the bottom floor. Once you’re there though, they have a range of rice and kale bowls, wraps, smoothies, and salads to choose from. Arrive before 11am to try their biscuits and gravy or one of several varieties of tofu scramble. Seating is limited, but you can always order your meal to go!

Raw Fresno
2405 Capitol St., Ste. 103
Fresno, CA 93721
Tacos, wraps, veggie burgers, and salads made from fresh, local ingredients are just a few of the many offerings at Raw Fresno. There’s also fresh smoothies, blended drinks, and delicious desserts. Make sure to leave room for the brownie sandwich or the cheesecake!

Root & Bloom
423 Elmwood Ave.
Buffalo, NY 14222
West coast vibes meets east coast comfort food style of café in Buffalo! The food is vegan, free of processed ingredients, and local and organic when available. They have homemade cinnamon rolls, pancakes, waffles, and eggless omelets for breakfast and brunch, just to name a few options. For dinner, choices include jackfruit sliders, salads, and vegan mac and cheese.

Sol Sips
203 Wilson Ave.
Brooklyn, NY 11237
Sol Sips is changing up the drink game with innovative “Bevs” like raw hot coco, root brews, fresh nut milks, smoothies, and milkshakes. The entire restaurant uses agave and maple syrup as the sweeteners. Order a Bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich made with chickpea eggs, tempeh bacon, and violife cheddar cheese, or head over on the weekends to get pancakes for brunch. The locally sourced ingredients are fresh and the food is made to order.

The Pizza Plant
55 S Madison Ave.
Pasadena, CA 91101
From Stuffed Avocados and Jalapeño Poppers to the Not Your Grandma’s Pizza, The Pizza Plant is the vegan pizzeria we’ve all been waiting for. Choose from a pre-designed pizza, or create your own from a list of crust, sauce, cheese, and topping options. There are also salad options, and every salad and pizza has two size possibilities.

The Thai Vegan Café
9679 MacLeod Trail SW
Calgary, AB T2J 0P6 Canada
While the focus here is clearly on Thai favorites, that’s not all on the menu at this latest offering from Hearts Choices. Consider the BBQ “pulled pork,” made from jackfruit and topped with caramelized onions and house-made slaw. But if Thai is what you came for, try the Pad Thai or Tom Kah Pak. Either way, why not end your meal with a cashew cheeze cake? It’s all vegan, and many of the dishes also have gluten-free options.
