Best Vegan Restaurants in Folly Beach

"The arugula salad is so fresh and amazing with the white balsamic and a bit of the the garlic bal..."

"This light-filled, minimalist cafe dubs itself a vegan restaurant, offering no animal products on the menu. However, unsuspecting customers may be thrown off by the meat-centric dish names, like the fried “chicken” sandwich and chickpea “tuna” salad, but the meat substitutes create unique delicious dishes. Try the tempeh Reuben with vegan swiss cheese or caesar salad with fried seitan “chicken.” Serving breakfast and lunch, this trendy vegetarian restaurant knows how to make some tasty portobello bacon."

"Its main aim is to serve delicious food so that plant-based diets won’t be deprived of rich tastes. Here, you can find the vegetarian version of your favorite food. It uses absolutely quality ingredients to bring bold flavors, even in the vegan menu."

"Gnome Cafe (109 President St.) offers vegan versions of many favorite Southern dishes and creates a few new ones too, all made with flavorful and quality ingredients. Breakfast and lunch show how satisfying vegan food can be."

"Prepare yourself: Mellow Mushroom pizza is unlike any other pizza you've had before. The distinctive Mellow Mushroom style is a unique (and perhaps perfect) blend of chewy dough baked in a stone hearth, with an impressive array of topping ingredients available. There's a dozen or so pre-imagined pizza offerings on the menu, including the Magical Mystery Tour, Kosmic Karma, and Mighty Meaty, alongside calzones, pretzel knots, salads, and hoagies."

"Not only does Mellow Mushroom offer red sauce, olive oil, or barbecue sauce as a base for its pizzas, it also has vegan toppings such as tofu, tempeh, and Daiya cheese."

"The gist: Frequent diners at Workshop have long loved the fresh, homestyle Vietnamese cuisine inspired by owner-chef Janice Nguyên Hudgins mother’s cooking. Its new standalone location opened earlier this year and has already become a go-to of Mount Pleasant diners. The food: Classic Vietnamese foods you’ve come to expect, and dammit, each one is better than the last."

"Inspired by her mother’s cooking, Janice Hudgins started a catering business focused on traditional Vietnamese dishes. Named after her mom, Little Miss Ha is now a brick-and-mortar eatery in Mount Pleasant. The restaurant serves banh mi, steam buns, pho, Saigon salad, and more."

"Neon Tiger (654 King St.) is a vegan pizzeria that doubles as a cocktail lounge. It’s new on the foodie scene but knowingly embraces key tenets of old-working cooking (raise hands high for their use of zero flour in their pizza crust!). The menu includes specialty and classic pizzas as well as salads, sides, spirits, and sodas."

"This all-vegan, organic café offers a variety of healthy, delicious smoothies, wraps, sandwiches, and more. Fresh off the grill yesterday!. #Organic #vegan tacos!"

"As well as a 3,600-square-foot ceramics gallery open to the public throughout the week, Cone 10 Studios offers classes and workshops in the various art forms which are on show and produced on-site. The porcelain and stoneware comes in traditional, functional forms which can be bought for your home or kitchen, and also in more conceptual, abstract forms which are both thought-provoking and aesthetically pleasing. Weekly classes are held in wheel-throwing, hand-building and teapot-making, in addition to a dedicated children’s program."

"Located in the Council Chamber of Charleston City Hall (1801), the gallery contains portraits of many important leaders, including one of George Washington by John Trumbull."

"Listen to the haunting real stories and view original artifacts and writings in this striking historic building once used for slave auctions. The museum's legacy as a part of a slave auction complex built in 1859 provides a unique home for the moving artifacts and disturbing personal histories that tell the story of slavery beginning in American colonial times. Charleston was a major port of call for the Middle Passage avenue of slave trade nearly up until the end of the civil war."

"The only remaining structure from a complex of buildings known as Ryan’s Mart, where hundreds of slave auctions were held from 1856 to 1863, the Old Slave Mart Museum exhibits focus on the domestic slave trade from the perspectives of historically-documented buyers, traders, and enslaved African Americans, and speak to their stories, contributions and legacies."

"As you must have seen in movies or read in old stories, slavery was a common phenomenon in the countries ruled and lived in by the Whites’. This place is one such where the slaves were set for display. Yes, the name comes from the fact that this was a slave display gallery in earlier times."
