Where To Eat Vegan for Lunch in NYC
Its lunch time and your stomach is rumbling. Whether you've been vegan for ten years or ten days, you know your options can be limited when you go out to eat. Thankfully, NYC is home to many delicious, local, vegan eateries ready to serve you a quick pickup before you head back to the office or a dine-in experience that will lift your spirits.
P.S. Kitchen
Not many can say they do it like P.S. Kitchen, which donates 100% of its profits to benefit the community among its charity partners. Menu items such as the maitake wings, or its takes on classics such as chicken pot pie and Italian wedding soup, won't disappoint your taste buds. If you want to feel fancy for your lunch break, try any zero-proof mocktail, like the Rosemary's Baby or the butterfly lemonade. If you still have room, have a bite of the brownie with ice cream, or take the chocolate raspberry ganache to-go for a later pick-me-up. Overall, you can rest assured that P.S. Kitchen is taking care of you and the community through its enjoyable vegan menu.
