Are there any major chain restaurants that cater to the Vegan Lifestyle?
While many of the big names don’t explicitly have vegan menu options, most of them have something that can be ordered (not just salad). Chipotle Mexican Grill and Taco Bueno have customizable burritos, P.F. Chang’s has many Asian vegetable and faux meat dishes, Panera Bread offers soups and sandwiches, and Little Caesar’s and Pizza Hut can make a cheeseless pizza if you order ahead. Au Bon Pain, California Pizza Kitchen and Fresh Choice also have a large variety of vegan items. As more demand comes in from consumers more choices become available such as the Streamliner burger at Johnny Rockets. Many more places have a handful of vegan options, and that’s why I started my site to show that it’s possible to still go out to eat as a vegan and have choices. Alternatively there are also 100 percent vegan restaurants and fast food establishments such as Foodswings in NYC and Veggie Bite in Chicago.
