B’Gabs Goodies
1450 E 57th St.
Chicago, IL 60637

Located in Chicago’s Hyde Park, B’Gabs Goodies offers organic, raw foods, juices, and smoothies. Notable menu items include veggie burgers, burritos, and sloppy Joes made with greens, veggies, and seeds.

Calabash Tea & Tonic
1847 7th St. NW
Washington, DC 20001

The tea house atmosphere is warm and cozy with that hipster flare. The baristas are very knowledgeable on their teas and the vegan diet. The tea house opened in 1976, which makes for a trusting customer. I got the vegan chili and paired it with Goddess Kali’s Hibiscus Healer – a light decaf herbal tea. The warm chili and the balancing herbal tea, mixed with the cool ambiance was heaven. I will definitely be returning to test out their vegan baked goods and other teas.

Chickpea
589b Park Ave.
Worcester, MA 01603

If you have a craving for delicious food, check out Chickpea Cafe, a vegan sandwich and ice cream shop that donates 100% of its profit to animal rights organizations. Their Mediterranean sandwich sounds delectable, as it is made with mushrooms, hummus, artichoke, peppers, sun dried tomatoes, olive tapenade, pepperoncini, capers, baby spinach, and fresh tomato on ciabatta. Pair that with some Sweet Date Vegan Ice Cream and you have a meal that’s good for you and satisfies your sweet tooth!
