Julian's · West End
Julian's has cooked seriously for vegans on Broadway for more than a decade, among the first Providence kitchens to build real vegan options into a brunch menu rather than treat them as an afterthought. French toast with pomegranate and pear jam sits on the same menu as everything else, no separate vegan section required.
Garden Grille · Pawtucket
Garden Grille has run a vegetarian kitchen in Pawtucket for years under longtime vegan owner Rob Yaffe, and nearly everything on the menu can be made fully vegan on request. It shares its East Avenue plaza with Rasoi and Wildflour, giving the strip a small cluster of plant-forward and international kitchens side by side.
Plant City X · Warwick
Plant City X is the fast food arm of Kim Anderson's plant based group, and Rhode Island Monthly's profile of her traces how it grew. The first opened in a former Papa Gino's in Middletown, and a second followed soon after in a former Burger King in Warwick, offering craving friendly takes on the flagship's health conscious fare. The Warwick counter on Centerville Road is the one nearest Providence, and it kept running after the original Providence food hall closed in early 2026. Go for the fast format rather than the flagship's sit down menu.
Like No Udder · Hope Village
Like No Udder started as the world's first all-vegan soft-serve ice cream truck before opening the area's only all-vegan ice cream shop, now on Hope Street. The storefront sells its soy-based soft-serve alongside more than a dozen flavors of hard-packed ice cream, all free of animal products, in the former laundromat space next to Apsara.
