Let’s be real—COVID-19 is a chaotic and anxiety-inducing time for all. Right now, it’s the little things creating a sense of normalcy that are keeping the world going. In celebration of National Vegan Day on April 20th, here are Philly’s go-to vegan eateries, open for pick up and takeout, committed to feeding and keeping their communities healthy through it all.
The Tasty
Diner classics meet 100% vegan ingredients at Philly’s ultimate breakfast spot, here with dedicated service even through quarantine. Though closed on Mondays and Tuesdays for some well-deserved rest, The Tasty is open for pickup 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. the rest of the week. Bring your favorite dishes home, like their lemon ricotta french toast or nacho burrito. 1401 S. 12th St., 267.457.5670, thetastyphilly.com

From breakfast to burgers to frozen treats, HipCityVeg has every time of your WFH day covered.

Order their crispy sweet potato fries with the new Birthday Cake Shake for either curbside pickup or no-contact delivery from Caviar and DoorDash. Multiple locations, hipcityveg.com

Who says you can’t still explore the world of food while staying at home? Award-winning chefs Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby’s V Street showcases an intricate menu, including Korean fried tempeh, Peruvian fries, a Trinidad wrap—made with channa stew, avocado, jerk hot sauce, tomato and ginger rice—and much more. With help from Caviar, this street food bar is available for delivery or—if you need an excuse to breathe some fresh air—curbside pick-up. 124 & 126 S. 19th St., 215.278.7943, vstreetfood.com

What other eateries directly plan crops around their menu? Healthy-eating connoisseur Dig does, and it has all stay-at-home chefs covered with its 12-serving Dig Kits—including recipes for breadcrumb-topped Jasper Hill Mac & Cheese, cornbread and Kitchen Sink Cookies. If you’re looking for a taste of their featured bowls, such as the chicken caesar or seasonal salmon, order online for pick-up or complementary no-contact delivery, location depending. 1616 Chestnut St., 215.344.8440, diginn.com
