Vegan Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri: Food & Brunch Guide

Terror Tacos is the fully vegan Mexican stop in this guide, combining tacos, burritos, nachos and a full bar with a deliberately horror-and-metal-heavy atmosphere. The operator explicitly describes the restaurant as 100% vegan.

Before you orderThe official site confirms the vegan status and South Grand address but does not currently display a full weekly schedule. Recent September 2026 local listings disagree slightly on opening and closing times, so check the restaurant’s live ordering page or contact the venue before a time-sensitive trip.

Highlights: A 100% vegan taco restaurant and bar with one of the most distinctive dining-room concepts in the city.

SweetArt combines a 100% plant-based savory cafe with a full bakery, so it works for breakfast, lunch or a dessert-focused stop. The business moved its main cafe from Shaw to the historic Coronado building on Lindell in 2025.

Before you orderUse the Coronado address for the main cafe profile here. SweetArt also operates SweetArt Too inside City Foundry, which has separate hours and a smaller market-style menu. Tuesday is closed at the Coronado location.

Highlights: Plant-based sandwiches, comfort food, cakes and Sunday brunch from a long-running St. Louis vegan bakery-cafe.

Red Bird Vegan focuses on plant-based soul and fast-casual comfort food: vegan chicken, fish-style sandwiches, BBQ rib tips, burgers, fries, shakes and house-made drinks. The operator explicitly presents the restaurant as vegan.

Before you orderThe official page currently lists service every day from 11am to 10pm. Menu items can rotate with seasonal produce. Ask separately about soy, wheat, nuts or other allergens even though the food is vegan.

Tree House is a vegetarian restaurant whose food is prepared vegan by default, with dairy cheese or farm eggs available when a guest chooses a vegetarian version. The seasonal menu ranges from house-made seitan and pasta to brunch plates and desserts.

How to order veganKeep the default vegan preparation and do not add dairy cheese or eggs. The official menu marks vegan dishes with “v” and explains which plates can be modified. The kitchen handles nuts, soy and gluten, so allergy needs require a separate conversation.

Highlights: A polished South Grand sit-down restaurant with a deep vegan menu, craft cocktails and weekend brunch.

Pizza Head is an all-vegetarian New York-style pizzeria with an unusually low-friction vegan order: the operator says everything is plant-based except the dairy mozzarella option. Vegan cashew cheese and nut-free vegan mozzarella are available.

How to order veganChoose cashew cheese or vegan mozzarella and avoid the dairy mozzarella option. The kitchen handles dairy, soy, cashews, coconut and wheat on shared equipment, so severe allergies need extra caution. Service is to-go only.

Highlights: 20-inch vegan pies and slices on South Grand, with vegan cheese and plant-based meat toppings.

Govinda’s serves vegetarian Indian food inside the ISKCON St. Louis temple, with lunch and dinner thali formats rather than a large fixed restaurant menu. Current local vegan guidance continues to list it as a vegetarian restaurant with vegan food available.

How to order veganAsk which daily thali items are vegan and which use dairy or ghee. The official site confirms the current address and vegetarian menu but does not publish a complete weekly service timetable, so check before traveling.

Highlights: A distinctive Midtown temple-dining experience with vegetarian Indian thali and vegan choices.
