This newly-opened restaurant has a menu filled with vegan sandwiches along with sides including hash browns and daily specials like black bean kale slaw. They also have a refrigerator stocked with grab and go dishes that vary day to day but could include overnight oats, chickpea salad, and coconut oat balls.<\/p>\n<p>The Original Plantwich\u2019s owners are super friendly and told us about their initial idea of having a food truck mainly serving sandwiches. When their current space in Glen Rock became available, they changed their plans and opened a storefront shop. They are open for take-out only but there are shady benches nearby for a picnic lunch.<\/p>\n<p>My sandwich, Gone in Sixty, was simple and delicious \u2013 vegan egg and cheese on a toasted English muffin.\u00a0 My daughter enjoyed the Marvelous Maple, a creative sandwich, which included vegan sausage, egg, and cheese on a pretzel bun with a smoky maple sauce. She described it as a mix of tastes that worked well together. My husband tried one of the daily specials, the TLT Dynamite, a classic featuring tempeh bacon, lettuce, tomato, and avocado on an English muffin.<\/p>\n<p>If I were to go back, I\u2019d want to try a PBC (peanut butter, banana jam, and chocolate chips on an English muffin) or maybe the Manipesto (vegan egg, bacon, tomato, and pesto on an English muffin).<\/p>\n<p>You can find The Original Plantwich at 251 Rock Road 1D Glen Rock, NJ.<\/p>\n<p>Visit their website at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theoriginalplantwich.com\/\">https:\/\/www.theoriginalplantwich.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To find a list of veggie restaurants in the USA and Canada visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/restaurant\/index.php\">https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/restaurant\/index.php<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Reed Mangels, PhD, RD It was a happy day when my family and I stopped by The Original Plantwich sandwich shop in Glen Rock, NJ.
