HI-BALLZ

A Guide to Vegan and Vegetarian Dining in New Orleans

"This ultra-funky, all-vegan bar, restaurant, and lounge opened in early 2023, filling a hyper-specific niche for a feel-good, plant-based cafe that strives for inclusivity, zero waste, accessible pricing, local food sourcing, and living wages. Try the Hi-Ballz sandwich, a $10 sandwich made with mushroom tofu from VEGGI Farmers Cooperative, pesto, and pickles, on focaccia from Bellegarde Bakery, or the hand pies filled with tofu or potato. Tons of sweets are 100 percent vegan, as is the soft serve. An impressive menu of mocktails pairs well with the combo deal: $20 for a sandwich, soup, and salad. Open Wednesday through Saturday from 5 to 10 p.m." - Eater Staff
