1. Karyn's on Green
Chicago, IL 60607
(312) 226-6155
Category:
Vegan
Neighbourhoods: Greektown, Near West Side, West Loop
Karyn's on Green is what I had hoped Karyn's Cooked would be. It is definitely my favourite of Karyn's restaurants. I've been here twice within a week's time.
The food is excellent. The plates are not as fancy-looking as Green Zebra's, but they're…More »
2. Zaleski & Horvath MarketCafe
Chicago, IL 60637
(773) 538-7372
Categories:
Coffee & Tea,
Specialty Food
Neighbourhood: Hyde Park
Z&H offers higher-quality lunch food and groceries. The vegan panini option is "The Marty" (without the cheese), which includes grilled eggplant, tomatoes, a nutty red pepper spread, and fancy mixed greens. The sandwich is delicious; the ingredients…More »
3. The Chicago Diner

Neighbourhood: Lakeview
The Titanic BLT burger that is currently on the menu is awesome. The patty is flavoured with red bell peppers, and it had the right texture balance of moist but chewy. Seitan bacon, french fried onions and BBQ mayo bump up the taste even more. I…More »

Another place at which I can eat almost everything! It seems they've improved a little over the last… Read more »

Neighbourhood: Wicker Park
Lots of late-night vegan options; yay! I had the "Savory Seitan Stuffed Tortellini" this past time. It was quite filling, though almost a little sweet. I've had the "Green Meanie" sandwich before (without the cheese); it's a big sandwich, but the…More »
5. Cafe Con Leche
Chicago, IL 60647
(773) 289-4274
Category:
Latin American
Neighbourhood: Logan Square
Those who know me are aware of my fondness for fried food. I am a sucker for patacones/tostones/fried green plantains - whatever you like to call them. The jibarito at Cafe Con Leche, with its "bread" of aforementioned golden deliciousness, didn't…More »
6. Medici On 57th
I swung by the deli for lunch with a friend. The deli's Veggie Sub is actually vegan without any modifications! It has most of the standard fillings, such as cucumbers, tomatoes, sprouts, bell peppers and baby greens. But I must say, it's a big step…More »
7. Rewster's Cafe

Neighbourhoods: Avondale, Logan Square
A cozier alternative to the fluorescent New Wave, Rewster's is small (seating a dozen or so) but comfy, with armchairs and pillows as options. The people are friendly and attentive. They checked often to make sure I didn't need more water - which is…More »
8. Protein Bar

Neighbourhood: The Loop
I'm high on quinoa!
I had a Comiskey Cocoa smoothie with soy protein and almond milk. Tasty and fairly healthy! I also had the vegan bar-ito, which is stuffed with quinoa, beans, tomatoes and best of all, vegan cheese! It's great to get a delicious,…More »

American (New)
Neighbourhood: Logan Square
Mmm... beer... Mmm... revolutions... Two wonderful things! Unfortunately, the "revolution" aspect is just a gimmick here.
Pale ale seems to be the focus, which isn't my preferred beverage; however, the Black Power Oatmeal Stout is fantastically dark.…More »

Categories:
Grocery,

Neighbourhood: University Village
Of course I complain about the WF prices, but I end up at this location multiple times per week. I work a block away, and I wander over for one or more of the following:
- vegan pizza (with vegan cheese, seitan sausage and veggies), especially on…More »
11. Drum & Monkey
Chicago, IL 60607
(312) 563-1874
This place will forever be "Four Corners" to me. I will miss Dominic and the chips & curry, but it's still pretty good. The bartender who last served me took about 5 minutes to pour my Guinness. Now that's the right way to do it! That alone is reason…More »
12. Karyn's Cooked

Neighbourhoods: Near North Side, River North
Note that three stars is not "bad" - it's "a-ok"!
I had been looking forward to trying Karyn's for years, and I finally got to for my birthday. It was good, but it didn't blow me away as I had thought it would.
Most of the menu is veganised standard…More »

Neighbourhood: Wicker Park
I really want to give Veggie Bite a stellar review, because I really appreciate the effort to have a not only vegan-friendly, but 100% vegan, place to eat. But I'm hovering around 3.5 stars.
I'll be honest about my skepticism for faux meat products in…More »
14. Gloria's Cafe
Chicago, IL 60647
(773) 342-1050
Category:
Latin American
Neighbourhood: Logan Square
The tostones (fried green plaintains) were delicious. I also had the yuca, but it wasn't as good. I had a mora (blackberry) liquado, and it was quite tasty. The server hadn't understood when I asked in English if I could make it without milk, so…More »
15. Fatman Pizza Pub
I was never here when this was a biker bar, so I guess I can't be too disappointed that it's now a place for sand volleyball and too much air conditioning.
Service was slow. It took probably a good 15 minutes for someone's Diet Coke after the server…More »
16. Panera Bread
Being close to Columbia, this place is great for group project meetings and quick pre-/post-class bites. Be sure to grab a booth/table while you wait for others, as it can get busy during peak times. Yes, I take advantage of the free Wi-Fi...
I…More »
17. Subway Sandwiches & Salads
It gets the job done, sort of. Unfortunately they're a bit stingy on the veggies. I get the Veggie Delite vegan-style (no cheese), so there isn't really anything else I can fill it with... Don't bother with the extra avocado; I asked for more than…More »
18. Jerry's Sandwiches
Sammichezzz. Yep, they have 'em at Jerry's.
The best bet for vegans is the "Milton F" menu item, in which you build your own sandwich (or salad) from a variety of breads, veggies and toppings. They mark which bread options are vegan, and the more…More »
