6 fully vegan kitchens worth a road trip

Saint Paul · American & Comfort · $$

The state's benchmark all-vegan kitchen - the crunch wrap, a cookies-and-cream shake, and a Sunday brunch worth planning around.

Minneapolis · Vegan Deli & Butcher · $$

America's first vegan butcher shop. The Italian sandwich at the counter, Korean BBQ ribs from the case, and a cooler bag for the drive home.

Duluth · Caribbean · $$

Duluth's from-scratch Caribbean kitchen, born on a blue school bus - jackfruit tacos and the kimchi taco bowl regulars call out by name.

Rochester · Coffee & Bakery · $

The banh mi gets called the best sandwich in Rochester - not the best vegan sandwich. The best sandwich.

Minneapolis · Plant-Based Soul Food · $$

Plant-based soul food in Midtown Global Market - the Mac Attack burger is excess as an art form.

Minneapolis · Bakery · $

The celebration-cake specialists - order the cake, leave with an ice cream sandwich too.
