20 Chicago Veg-friendly delivery and take-out options

During these uncertain times, we want to help out our favorite small businesses while staying committed to plant-based eating. I have compiled a list of my favorite (and a few that I’d still like to try) vegan/vegetarian/veg-friendly restaurants that are doing delivery and take-out right now.

This way you can still enjoy your favorite treats while maintaining necessary social distancing and support a dear Chicago business. There are so many other wonderful spots as well that are not on this list, but I wanted to make it palatable and not overwhelming.

The status of these restaurants can change everyday so there might be changes to the availability of these menus.

Handlebar: Vegetarian and Vegan Options, Delivery and Take-Out

Brunch and Dinner, Wicker Park/Humboldt Park

Handlebar is here for us and we are here for them! You can get them delivered or do pick-up for brunch and dinner! We all love their massive chimichanga, buffalo “chicken” wrap, fried pickles, and Nashville “hot fried” chicken sandwich.

Ground Control: 100% Vegetarian and Vegan options, Delivery and Take-Out

Dinner, Logan Square

Ground Control is another classic vegetarian favorite of mine and they have taken some hard hits recently so I am super eager to support them. Their buffalo tofu wings, cheesy Italian sandwich, and seitan tacos are incredible! I had a lovely delivery experience through Caviar.

Chicago Diner: 100% Vegetarian and Vegan options, Delivery only

Brunch and Dinner, Lakeview and Logan Square

Chicago Diner was one of the first vegetarian/vegan spots in Chicago before being plant-based became more widely accepted. I will always be loyal to them because they also have super delicious food.

Kal’ish: 100% Vegan, Delivery and Take-Out

All-day Breakfast and Dinner, Uptown

I still have never been here because it’s kind of far from me and I’m lazy but really want to try it and this might be the perfect time since I can get it delivered to me. As a late-riser I love the idea of all-day breakfast too! They have a wide variety of vegan burgers and nachos!

Sam & Gertie’s: 100% vegan, Delivery and Take-Out

Weekend Brunch/Lunch, Uptown

This is another spot I really want to try but because it’s far I haven’t been here yet. I love the concept of 100% vegan Jewish food! Being a smoked fish lover, now I can enjoy plant-based “fish” without the ethical guilt. What a unique spot!

Spice Room: Vegetarian and Vegan Options, Delivery Only

Dinner, Logan Square

I love Spice Room so much, it helps get me through the long Chicago winters. Their Gobi Manchurian, Pav Bhaji, Dal Makhani, and Paneer Butter Masala/Veggie Tikka Masala are all incredible. They are also very kind so why not support this awesome spot.

Bonus 21st one: Antique Taco: Vegan and Vegetarian Options, Delivery and Take-Out
