Vegan Charleston: Where to Start

Charleston has two fully vegan kitchens we could confirm. Start there, then use the places that name their vegan dishes.

If you want a kitchen where you never have to ask, Charleston has two we could confirm: Three Girls on Spring, a plant-based Italian deli downtown, and Annie O Love's, a vegan bakery and cafe in West Ashley.

A vegan option is not a vegan kitchen

Every other place here cooks meat too. We list it only when the place or a named source says vegan in plain words.

  1. Basic Kitchen, on Wentworth Street.
  2. Beautiful South, for Cantonese.
  3. Jack of Cups Saloon, on Folly Beach.
  4. Off Track Ice Cream, for vegan ice cream.

Check old vegan lists for Charleston before you go

Neon Tiger closed in March 2024 and Gnome Cafe closed in September 2022. If a list still names either one, the list is out of date.
