Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Sullivan's Island

"From loaded salads and stacked deli-style sandwiches to impressively flavorful soups, curry, fish, and chicken dishes, Five Loaves satisfies every party and taste. Ask any Five Loaves regular for their perfect meal, and they'll likely recommend a unique set of choices--not to mention the fantastic daily specials. We humbly recommend the Eggplant-Wrapped Goat Cheese to start, followed by the Tri-Color Cheese Tortellini or the Pumpkin Seed-Encrusted Salmon."

"Some of this neighborhood café’s most tantalizing ­bowlfuls include Mexican chicken chili with avocado and lime; potato, broccoli, and cheddar; and tomato, tarragon, and crabmeat. On Wednesdays and Saturdays, take advantage of half-price wine. Be sure to check out the eatery's second location in Mount Pleasant."

"Humbly sharing space with the washers and dryers, this neighborhood sandwich shop is serving up some simply delicious soups and sandwiches. The name of the game here is "grilled panini," and the Persimmon menu holds both consistent regular features as well as guest star specials on a daily basis. Count on regular menu sandwiches like the lump crab with carred onion mayo, the zucchini with fontina and pistachio pistou, the caprese, and the "Adult Grilled Cheese." Persimmon Cafe is also known for the occasional appearance of such specials as the buttnernut squash and curry cashew butter, and even a lobster roll."

"Really, what could be more unassuming than a sandwich shop that’s taken up residence in a college laundromat?. Consistently great sandwiches, salads, drinks, and custards. Eat at the counter, or take it to go and enjoy the sunshine in Marion Square just a few blocks away!"

"I think the name of this dessert speaks for itself — it’s a chocolate hazelnut frozen treat adorned with perfectly brûléed marshmallows. Stop by this little neighborhood gem attached to a laundromat for a hand-spun custard creation."

"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."

"The McCrady’s name has a long history stretching back to 1778, when the former tavern was opened by Edward McCrady. Until 2006, when new ownership took over and established the current restaurant, the venue was home to such events as a grand 30 course dinner for President George Washington in 1791. Its historical prominence, as well as the reputation of the current chef Sean Brock, elevates McCrady’s to one of Charleston’s finest cultural restaurants."

"At McCrady’s, you’re sitting in one of the most historic dining rooms in the city—maybe near the fireplace with a sophisticated absinthe cocktail. Ingredients from the South are plated like art, and they make it easy to try a taste of everything with Chef Sean Brock’s four-course tasting menu (say yes)."

"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."

"Gnome Cafe is a minimalist, light-filled, Instagram-worthy restaurant dubs itself as a vegan restaurant so you won’t find any animal products on their menu. Perfect for the vegan or lactose-intolerant!. The unaware customer will be wowed by their fried ‘chicken’ sandwich and tempeh Reuben with vegan Swiss cheese – a definite crowd favorite."

"This entirely vegan café is perfect for breakfast or lunch—or both!. The menu is chock-full of vegan versions of traditional Southern dishes like mac and “cheese,” grits bowls, and biscuits with gravy. It also offers a variety of pastries."

"Sugar Bakeshop is a magical place full of cupcakes, tarts, cookies, and pie. It is perhaps the only establishment in Charleston selling the legendary Southern Lady Baltimore cakes. Not only are the treats a joy, but the petite storefront is impeccably styled with dreamy details and vintage flair."

"The squat, square block that is Sugar Bakeshop is just so cute!. Snap a shot of its printed shop name or turn the corner to find the cupcake motif painted on its side. For an Instagram-worthy photo, you can pose with your treat of the day (this lavender blueberry cupcake was so yummy!)."

"Devoted to making every day special and milestones even better by baking fresh, creative cupcakes. Check out our unique flavors. A Charleston original and a SC favorite!"
