We asked, you answered. Back in December, we shared a guide on where to find plant-based eats in San Antonio, TX
. We followed up on Instagram
if a part two to this list is something we should explore — the answer was a resounding yes.
Viva Vegeria , 1422 Nogalitos St.
Tex-Mex food, but make it vegan + gluten-free. Chef Fred Anthony Garza has developed a menu focused on preserving Indigenous food of the land with specialty dishes like the mini nopales tacos with pickled jalapeño cabbage.
Earth Burger , Various locations
Established in 2014, and now with three locations in SA, Earth Burger became the first plant-based drive-thru in the US, pioneering vegan fast-food. Chef Mike, previous owner of Lulu’s Bakery, also established our next vegetarian eatery on this list. Pro Tip: students can dine for $7 on Tuesdays.
Green Vegetarian Cuisine , Various locations
With nearly 15 years of bringing vegan eats to the Alamo City food scene, this restaurant is a classic for those who are plant-based-curious. You can visit the Alamo Quarry or Alon location next to Phil Hardberger Park.
Hash Vegan Eats , 5007 S. Flores St.
Eat delicious plant-based meals paired with spirit-free cocktails from this spot’s dry bar. This Southside restaurant is the only alcohol free + hemp forward restaurant in the area.
Señor Veggie , 620 S. Presa St.
You can find this vegan eatery in the heart of SA and less than a 10 minute walk from Hemisfair Park. We can’t help but drool at the pupusas norteñas made with gluten-free corn masa, tempeh chorizo, cashew crema, pico de gallo, and roasted salsa.
Project Pollo , Various locations
With five locations in SA, and many more locations hatching up in neighboring cities, this plant-based chicken restaurant is seriously changing up the game. This spot serves up plenty of sandwiches, making it egg-actly what we are looking for.
