Late Night Vegetarian

Recently my friend, Katrina, was asking about late night munchies for vegetarians. It's hard to find a good restaurant late at night even for meat eaters. I have some experience with this problem in Tucson. It usually leads to french fries and veggie grinders at Eegees. So here is a list I have thrown together. Sorry, I am no good with the eastside anymore, but that's another blog.

Eegees I just mentioned has a few veggie options. If you aren't vegan, ranch fries are awesome (veggie bacon bits). I love the veggie grinder on whole wheat, hold the cheese. And they have the best fries in the world.

The Cup Cafe at Hotel Congress has a hummus platter that is delicious. Another option is "The Queer Steer" their house veggie burger.

The Grill on Congress and Scott has a portobello burger. It's delicious. I get it w/ out cheese and no butter. It's not a vegan friendly place so just say you can't have dairy. Unless your waitress is Carly. She used to date a straight edge guy so she knows all about vegan. Just for a snack I recommend tots with marinara. Open 24 hours!

The Taco Shop is open 24 hours. It's between Campbell and Euclid on Broadway. Veggie burrito no cheese or sour cream. The bean tostada is what my kids usually like.

Thursday-Saturday On A Roll is open late. They have veggie rolls, edamame, and spring rolls on the happy hour menu. Watch out, the miso soup has fish oil.

The Surly Wench Pub has a few decent veg options and they are open pretty late. They have veggie burgers and for the not-so-vegan deep fried zucchini, mushrooms, and mozzarella sticks. I think they have nachos too, if you like cheese.

This is not an exhaustive list, of course, I welcome other suggestions. For example I have heard that Taco Bell has stuff you can get w/out meat and some other fast food places have options. So please comment if you know. Thanks!
