Veggie Galaxy
Vegetarians, behold: this is the meatless diner you've only dreamed about. With all the decor of a classic American diner, Veggie Galaxy offers an all-day menu that takes vegetarianism to new heights. Expect tofu omelets, BBQ jackfruit sandwiches, and black bean veggie burgers in lieu of their meat-centric counterparts. In true diner fashion, desserts like lemon meringue pie and chocolate strawberry cheesecake are displayed in a rotating glass case.

It turns out you don’t need bacon to have an indulgent brunch. This diner-esque joint hybrid vegan bakery offers coffee-shop food without a single carnivorous ingredient. Swap out your normal Canadian bacon Benedict for Corned-Beef Seitan Hash, Vegetarian-Gravy Poutine, and Vegan Shepherd's Pie. Even the pastries are egg- and milk-free, which makes that second slice of Boston cream pie feel almost virtuous.
The diner of your dreams doesn’t have to include a quart of leftover bacon grease coating the grill. At Veggie Galaxy, you’ll find all the breakfast basics sans meat, from Benedicts to egg sandwiches to pancakes. There’s a corned-beef seitan hash, too, as well as poutine with vegetarian gravy, the holy grail of the meat-free community. But it’s during lunch and dinner that things really get interesting with meatless BLTs, Reubens, and even shepherd’s pie. Your best bet is probably to eat your way through the entire menu.
Everything on this diner-inspired menu is either vegetarian or vegan. In traditional diner style, breakfast is served all day and there’s a great selection of breakfast sandwiches featuring early-morning essentials with a twist. Take, for instance, the Great Galaxy!, which includes hash brown potatoes, an over-easy egg, tempeh bacon, cheddar cheese, baby arugula, and roasted garlic mayo nestled between a griddled bun.
