Your Guide to Eating Vegan at Johnny Rockets
Vegan options at chain restaurants all over the country are exploding! Burger King, Red Robin, Qdoba, and Little Caesars have teamed up with Impossible Foods, while Carl’s Jr. is making consumers happy with its Beyond Burger patty.
There are also plenty of exciting developments on the horizon, like Kentucky Fried Chicken’s talks with plant-based meat suppliers and Ben & Jerry’s adding more and more dairy-free flavors to its lineup. On top of all these new fantastic options, many of the menu items currently available at major chains like White Castle, Subway, and Taco Bell are already vegan.
Johnny Rockets is no exception. The diner-style restaurant chain, known for its jukeboxes, dancing servers, and 1950s vibe, was founded in 1986 and has locations all over the United States. Plant-based eaters can enjoy the old-timey atmosphere along with meat- and dairy-free foods.
