Joi Brozek

All aboard, fearless food fanatics and culinary thrill-seekers—it’s time to cruise out of 2020 into a delicious new year. Ahoy! This taste trip is plant-based, so we’ll be leaving the animals off our plates.

Yelp’s Vegan Voyage is a tantalizing vegan-focused promotion throughout January and February. We will be featuring—and celebrating with—exceptional vegan-friendly businesses across North America in a variety of virtual events. Whether you want to learn how to make an Egyptian feast worthy of a pharaoh or chat over biscuits with a vegan entrepreneur and recording artist, there’s something for the vegan-curious and vegan vets alike. Check out the event landing page for the full list of events, and please be sure to follow each individual event link to RSVP.

Before you get started on your vegan voyage, we suggest that you check out our partner for this expedition, Veganuary. Dedicated to inspiring people all over the world to get started on their vegan journey, Veganuary provides an array of valuable resources. Sign up for access to free recipes, nutrition tips, and more.

Did you know that finding vegan options when dining out is easier than ever? When searching for local eats on Yelp, if the “vegan” icon shows up on a business page, they’ve got the goods.

Now check out the list of Yelp’s Top Vegan Restaurants in each state. Whether right in your backyard or requiring a road trip, these spots are worth exploring in 2021. Note that some of the featured restaurants may not be 100% vegan but have been determined by Yelp (methodology below) as the top-reviewed vegan/plant-based option in that state.
