green seed · Third Ward
A soy-free vegan kitchen that has held down its Third Ward corner for over a decade, with mostly raw dishes including gluten-free collard green wraps and a spicy burger built from buckwheat, quinoa, and sunflower meal. The menu skews raw and whole-food rather than mock meat.
Mo' Brunch + Brews · Museum District
Part record store, part all-day breakfast counter, this Museum District spot runs Southern-style vegan twists like soy boudin sushi rolls and breakfast sandwiches on donut buns. The combination of records and plant-based brunch gives it an offbeat, laid-back feel that sets it apart from a standard brunch spot.
Shri Balaji Bhavan · Mahatma Gandhi District
An entirely vegetarian, counter-service South Indian spot specializing in chaats like samosa chaat and papdi chaat, a reliable option for meat-free South Indian food in the city. The chaat menu makes it an easy vegan-friendly stop along the Hillcroft strip.
