Really great vegan spot in Charlotte! This was actually the first strictly vegan restaurant I visited since starting my new diet so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Upon looking over the menu though, I was excited, everything sounded so good! I ended up choosing a veggie burger that I think was called the "cowboy". It had veggie bacon, onion rings, bbq sauce and came with yummy fries. Pretty yummy. For appetizers, we ordered bbq cauliflower and "crab" dip. Let me tell you, that cauliflower was EPIC! I could eat it every day for the rest of my life it was so good. The crab dip was delicious as well. My favorite part of the meal by far though was dessert. My wife ordered some peanut butter chocolate pie thing that was EXCEPTIONAL and I ordered the cookies..LOVED them both. Delish!
What's great about BEAN is that there's a vegan grocery store attached to the restaurant so you can stock up on food items and other small vegan goodies while you're there.
I'll definitely be visiting Bean again next time I'm in Charlotte.
