The Chicago Diner is a meat-free fixture of the Northalsted, Chicago neighborhood. Established in 1983, it is one of the oldest vegetarian restaurants in Chicago and is consistently ranked as one of the best in the country. The menu features American diner classics with a vegetarian/vegan twist: burgers, steak & eggs, chicken sandwiches, fish tacos – all flavor, just no meat.
The Radical Reuben is a show-stopper and fan-favorite, featuring the house recipe thin-sliced seitan, a plant-based protein made from wheat. The vegan milkshakes are highly regarded especially the peanut butter cookie dough. There’s a full brunch selection, as well as cocktails, beer, and wine. Top it off with an impressive selection of vegan desserts that are featured in Whole Foods Markets across the Midwest
