50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Wrightsville Beach

“Adapt had the best poke bowl and best avocado toast I've ever had. It's quaint and there's no seating inside but just take the food to go. The chai latte was amazing and the people that work there are so nice. I'd love to come back when I'm in town“

“My husband and I went to Poe’s for a late dinner on April 21 after checking into the condo. Our server, Kelly, was excellent! She was attentive and had a great sense of humor. Our fish tacos were very good. And, the french fries were perfectly cooked to a nice crunch with just the right amount of salt on them. Would definitely return!“

“Great spot. I wish there was music in the actual bar area, it was a bigger area but it was darker and quiet, wasn't the side we wanted to sit on for lunch. It would be awesome if they took the front area vibe and ambiance and pulled it through to the back bar area. Food was good, good price. Skinny margarita was a little tart.“

“This is genuinely my favorite place to eat anywhere on this planet and I'm not even kidding. The Madison Princess Acai bowl convinced my wife to move from Canada to the US and I'm not even kidding. 1000/10 restaurant, I hope it stays in business forever. Also the employees are very chill and cool.“

“This was a great place to eat while staying at the beach for a week. Our server was very attentive and helpful. This was my first experience at a Mellow Mushroom. I got The Elevated Cobb, it was really good and the chicken is as good as it says it is. My boyfriend got The Italian Hoagie and he said it was delicious! And I had to agree. My boyfriend got the Yellow Submarine mixed drink and it was made perfectly. The restaurant was very clean including the bathroom. We also had a sugar cookie and peanut butter cookie. The sugar cookie was so good. We will definitely be back when we go to Wrightsville beach again.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian pizza and saladsParking: Lots of parking right in front of the buildingKid-friendliness: High chairs are available. I didn’t see a kids menu but there was plenty for my son to eat.“

“The food was beautiful as well as delicious. I ate it with my eyes first and then my nose and taste buds took over and were very happy. The sear on my scallops was perfect. The oyster stew was rich and creamy, the clams linguini was unctuous and balanced. I wanted to drink the sauce left in the dish. Our server was bright, attentive and friendly.“

“We love the cauliflower appetizer. I really enjoy the oyster app with kimchi collards. Unique pizzas, burgers, and seafood. Shrimp and grits aren't my favorite. However, everything else on the menu is great. Service is always quick and great.“

“Amazing Family business!! Every time I visit I have a great experience! Staff is always friendly and welcoming when you walk through the door. Today I got my breakfast togo. I got to work downtown and my food was still hot & delicious! I highly recommend Our Crepes & More!!!“

“For a special occasion last week, we travelled from Durham to Wilmington try this restaurant. We were NOT disappointed and it was so worth the trip! The dishes were all plant-based absolutely delicious. Even if you are normally a carnivore, you will not miss having meat. The restaurant space itself is beautiful and very tasteful and relaxing. All the staff were super friendly and hospitable. Felt like I was saying good-bye to friends when we left. Looking forward to my next trip to Wilmington!“

“we had the pleasure of eating at Junction 421 this evening for a pre-Valentines dinner date I had the steak with mashed potatoes, asparagus, spears, and crab meat and topped with a delicious Bernese sauce . Michael had shrimp and grits and we had a nice, romantic dinner. Evan was our server and he treated us like we were VIPs. Highly recommend this restaurant is so close to our home.“

“Finally made it in today after a couple of years of trying to make it by. I got the Olivia’s Old South chicken salad BLT on toasted white bread. Absolutely delicious! I got my order to go and by the time I was done filling my drink I was met around the corner with my order. Great customer service. I don’t know if the cake on the counter is an everyday thing but it was the best, most moist cake I have ever had. I spent right under $20 for what I would call a deluxe sandwich, a side, a very large piece of cake and a drink. Absolutely worth the money. Thank you ladies! I will definitely see y’all again!!“

“Enjoy coming here to get a change of scenery when working from home. Coffee is rich and smooth. Love the atmosphere with the wall hanging plants, comfy couches and fire place. Feels like you’re at a cafe in Barcelona. Beautifully done with exceptional coffee.Parking: Large parking lot with free parking. Easy to access.“

“Service was great! We sat outside since the weather was nice. Everyone at the table enjoyed what they ordered. My husband got the Trash Burger and loved it. (It’s a big customer favorite we hear!) So nice to have a family meal out where everyone had many choices and left the table satisfied. Will definitely visit this place again soon!Many thanks to the owner for such a greatPlace to eat!“

“Mess Hall has a great vibe to it. Outdoor seating and a great drinks list. The food is also really solid with the “McWhat?” being a must in my opinion.I would say the staff felt a bit disinterested in being there and certainly didn’t feel very attentive. Outside of that it was a great experience.“

“Dinner tonight at Fish Bites was fantastic! Grouper, risotto, green beans! We had one of their amazing desserts, lemon blueberry cake! Very, very busy, service was great and so friendly!!“

“Had a great time. They are very busy from the time they open there doors. So it’s best to go early to get a seat.“

“Did an amazing job catering for a birthday party. Food was delicious! Those fingerling potatoes and steak and shrimp---yum!“

“Best Thai ever/anywhere. The duck is spectacular and the blue crab rice is just over the top. Incredible food.“

“the absolute best burger. hot food and fast.“

“Tandoori Bites is a phenomenal Indian restaurant!!! I am so glad that my sister discovered it and suggested it! The ambiance was incredible and the restaurant was impeccably clean. The detail to our service was incredible. They took their time with our food and our lamb vindaloo extra spicy and curry goat both fell off the bone and had the MOST amazing flavors!!! The garlic naan was fantastic!! Rohit, our server, was incredible, he answered all of our questions and was super sweet from beginning to end!! Our mango lassi drink was delicious and so glad we were able to find a local Indian restaurant we love!!! Tandoori Bites, we look forward to being frequent customers! Thank you for the fabulous food, service and atmosphere!“

“I had my first experience at Ruth's Kitchen at the behest of a long time friend, and they did NOTHING but confirm the compliments of my friend ??! To the extent and extreme that should I find myself remotely close to Ruth's Kitchen in my City-wide places of employ, I would MOST LIKELY have them on my itinerary of Restaurants to patronize when I am TOO tired to go home and cook or even warm up what I have cooked for myself! The Staff I had was exceptionally affable and engaging, and that made for a successful consumption and digestion of a VERY TASTY and FILLING meal! Without ANY DOUBT in my MIND or BELLY, I WILL be dining in or carrying out a meal once again and SOON ??!“

“After living here for years, my wife and I discovered this jewel of a restaurant. A great menu of fresh prepared daily options. To begin we enjoyed their chips & guac with queso, followed by a chopped house salad (wife) and a Caesar for me, then the short rib dinner. Everything was absolutely delicious, and plentiful. Sean Michael served us, and was able to give thoughtful insight on the dishes and the background of the restaurant, most helpful to a first (but not last) visit. The atmosphere was a bit ‘industrial’ in the downstairs dinning (they also have a rooftop outdoor dinning area), and we got there during happy hour, so it was a little loud (but this calmed down as we ate). Again, the food is fantastic! I would caution though (as Sean did before I ordered) the Ceasar salad is very intense with anchovy. Had I not been warned I would have sent it back, but I had been warned, and now so have you. Looking forward to our next visit, this time hopefully leaving room for dessert!“

“I’m absolutely in love with their delicious Italian cuisines. It’s honestly, in my opinion the best in Wilmington. The staff are super nice! Especially, Al and Haily, because I’ve personally have met them both. Wilmington please try this restaurant to keep it going for years to come. My precious granddaughter loves it also. Thanks for all the hard work y’all put into making those mouth watering entrees. ????????“

“The salad was so delicious. Staff very friendly and a clean place“

“Cava is an excellent choice if you would like a "grab and go" option for healthy food. The Lamb Meatballs and Falafel I can say were excellent, and their large selection of all ingredients are fantastic. Service was great, staff was friendly (we didn't go at lunch time rush so can't comment on how quick they are) and were helpful. They are definitely pricey for what you get, but if you want refreshing, quality Mediterranean food and you're in the Wilmington Area, give it a visit.“

“Absolutely delicious food and an artsy eclectic atmosphere“

“the absolute best burger. hot food and fast.“

“My family and I ate breakfast here and it was excellent! The food was delicious and fresh, the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing and our waitress was friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Best luncheon Best service Best venue & ambiance Best price Best dining experience“

“We had the breakfast bowls, they were delicious. Highly recommend Blue Surf over any other breakfast spot.“

“I ordered a pepperoni and sausage pizza online. The pizza was ready when I arrived and it was some of the best pizza in the area. It was cooked perfectly and there was a good amount of toppings. We've ordered from here numerous times and it's consistently good. We ordered the thin crust, excellent!“

“I am new to North Carolina and my wife took me here to Pot Belly’s and the food was amazing, the service was impeccable and the place is so clean. It was a pure pleasure.I’m also in the car business and the owner came into my store to buy a new vehicle and my experience I had made total sense on why Pot Belly’s is the great place it is because the owner was extremely nice and an absolute pleasure to deal with.“

“Elijah was a great server. Very friendly and attentive.“

“I always get the tropical or the Nutella!! And they always come out so beautiful but also the staff there is so sweet and patient with everyone and I just love going the playa bowls when I’m in town or when I crave it I’ll make the drive there no matter what.“

“We had Michelle as our waitress. Michelle has now become our best friend. She is full of humor and is the absolute best server we have all ever had. Also her tattoos are really cool!! If you have the chance to eat at bento box, ask for Michelle and you will have the best experience of your life!!“

“Pink Baking Co. did an amazing job on our wedding cake. Even though we only ordered a small cake we were treated with the same care as if we needed to feed hundreds. We even had dietary restrictions. Not only was the cake beautiful but it was also delicious. Thank you Pink Baking Co. for being a part of our special day!“

“Great service! Had a lovely night, best part was the delicious food! Chef’s kiss“

“Excellent service from Emma today! The lasagna and shrimp penne pasta were awesome!!“

“Absolutely the best Mexican food in town. We love El Cerro Monkey Junction. Junior and staff make it a special dining experience. We truly feel like family every time we eat there. It’s our go to place for all our celebrations and date nights.“
