16 Essential Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurants in Portland
"Located within the Zipper, Boxcar Pizza is Portland’s only all-vegan Detroit-style pizzeria serving square pies with a pillowy focaccia-like crust, gooey coconut-based mozzarella, and crispy, caramelized edges. The pies come with marinated “steak,” roasted tomatoes, and house-made chimichurri, or Buffalo “chicken” with generous dollops of dairy-free blue cheese. The shop offers kale Caesar salads and soy drumsticks prime for pairing with pizza, as well as a weekday slice and soda lunch combo. Watch Instagram for specials like the Chiky Parm made with Dirty Lettuce seitan fried chicken and the occasional “return of the rounds” pop-up from Baby Blue Pizza — owner Odie O’Connor’s now-closed wood-fired pizza venture." - Waz Wu
