Celebrate Veganuary with the delicious discounts and specials at these plant-based spots around LA! Whether you’re looking for a little extra nudge to convert to veganism, a way to introduce your family, friends, or foes to that #plantbasedlife, or you just love a good bargain, Veganuary is your month! This cleverly titled nonprofit organization reigning from the UK was created to encourage people to try eating vegan for the month of January (and beyond!) Although this effort began in the UK in 2014, the organization extended its reach to over 178 countries, including the United States! What’s the good news? Stellar deals are happening all month! Here is where you’ll find the best Veganuary deals in Los Angeles!
Mohawk Bend
Echo Park
Are you tired of having to pay more for vegan meals? Not here! Mohawk Bend flips the script on their menu prices every Monday in January! Start your week off on Meatless Mondays with an extra dollar in your wallet when you order the Impossible Burger at this vegan-friendly venue. That’s right, the vegan option is cheaper this time––by $1 to be exact! But the fun doesn’t end there! For one day only, Mohawk Bend blesses the LA food scene with a free vegan sloppy joe! Impossible burger meat, ginger, gochujang red chili, black beans, and vegan American cheese dazzle a sesame seed bun to shape the Sloppy June! This comforting sando makes its celebrity appearance only on Monday, January 27th and will be free with any purchase, no matter how small! Mark your calendars, make a reservation, set a reminder––do whatever you gotta do, but you won’t want to miss this one!
The Meatless Monday Impossible Burger discount is also available at 6th & La Brea, Bluebird Brasserie, Broxton, Stalking Horse, Tony’s Darts Away, Library Bar, and Ojai Pub!
