I didn’t see a separate vegan menu, and it was not completely clearly listened on the menu as vegan; however, you can give special instructions to the chef as I did. They have a bunch of items for takeout only. You order on the phone or in a kiosk; you could sit on the couch and wait for your food. Salads here are pretty big, and the food here is fresh.

I was a big fan of picnic for the last year or so, but they've frankly gotten quite a bit worse recently. Prices are higher now, portions are smaller, and they've changed what's in some of the bowls while forgetting to update on the menu (the avo & the egg doesn't have marinated beans anymore). To top it all off, I found a piece of plastic in one of my bowls. Hoping that they turn it around, so hopefully this is a wakeup call for management
I work in downtown Evanston, and I order from here most weeks (sometimes twice a week). The food is consistently delicious, and, as someone who cannot eat gluten, I really appreciate Picnic's diversity of menu options as well.
