Vedge Café, in downtown Ann Arbor, takes the guesswork out of eating vegan. Their extensive menu features soups, salads, sandwiches and smoothies made with oat milk in flavors of Choco Banana and Power, a blend of strawberry, banana, blueberry and spinach. Perfect for observing social distancing protocols, delivery is available in a seven-mile radius until 15 minutes before closing. Specify curbside pickup in the special requests section of the order. Catering, dine-in and carry-out options are also available.

            Ann Arbor residents are known to be health conscious, but customers do not have to be vegan or vegetarian to dine at Vedge Café. Many items are gluten-free. Amanda Ratke, co-owner and head cook, is a registered dietitian who says, “Having worked in the healthcare industry, I am now following my dream of combining my love for cooking with an undying passion for educating and sharing diet alternatives with others.”
