The first plant-based, all-vegan mart in North America connected to a service station/car wash. It's like a 7-11 but everything is vegan. Sells donuts, pastries, soft serve, jerky, snacks, candy bars, butter, milk, hot/ cold drinks & creamers, ice cream, popsicles, instant noodles and more. 10% of profits goes to charities and animal welfare. Open Mon-Sun 12:00am-12:00am. 24/7

One stop plant based convenience - Edit
Finally a place that serves vegan soft serve and vegan donuts with good coffee (and the right creamer)

I love that this place exists - Edit
perfect for snacks late night. I picked up some lentils & a few other grocery essentials. I tried the donut farm donuts & the croissant breakfast sandwich in the hot & ready. The donuts were okay but I DO NOT recommend the croissant breakfast sandwich. It’s artificial & bizarre, not in the usual vegan meat/egg way like completely inedible. But hey it’s gas station food 🤷♀️

Great pit stop - Edit
Loved all the options in the store. I appreciated the fact that they didn’t just have snacks. They also had microwavable meals. There were also midnight perfect ramen options. Gluten-free and regular noodles. There’s also vegan jerky. I love throwing mushroom jerky into a bowl of ramen as a quick meal while traveling.

This place should be 50 stars - Edit
Lots of options! This is a Dream if you ever in a previous life used to raid 7/11 super late after a long night. You could have that experience here except everything is vegan!!! This place need more credit and businesses! If you are in the area stop by. These need to exist all over the country.
Read morePros: 24 hours, Warm vegan sandwiches, Ripple coffee creamer
Cons: Pretty sure Bang isn't vegan

Convenience store magic - Edit
We had to stop at the first 100% plant-based and cruelty free convenience store in North America. How could we not? I spent a ridiculous amount of time looking through the store and had to have a soft serve before I even had breakfast, prepare to leave with an bagful of vegan goodies.

Like a service station shop, except… - Edit
99.8% of the food is vegan.
Read moreThis place isn’t going to pretend to be a fancy vegan store with fancy vegan food.
It’s a service station store complete with lotto tickets, tobacco products, random, kind of disorganized snacks and products, one of those heat lamp cases with food inside, etc etc.
Most of the customers are not there for the vegan food, and my kid and I got side-eyed a bit as we waited (excitedly) in line with our soft serve and donuts, which was totally fine! Let them buy their junk, and let them buy it at a vegan shop. I think that is kind of the point of the place.
Thanks for being out there! We will be back!

The food in the cases is also vegan food! Vegan sausage and vegan egg.

Yes! Those sandwiches aren’t bad! Seeing random customers come out with one, and their lottery tickets, is kind of fun.

High Expectations Not Met - Needs Improvement - Edit
Based on the ratings (2) at the time of this writing, I was sadly let down today. I had understood it to be an All Vegan Shop with a Car Wash component but it’s a gas/oil fill station. I appreciate the efforts in donating to charity (of each purchase) but it was also more expensive to fill-up here than down the street at a conventional gas station. Also when I entered, there looked like great attempts to label items but it looked in disarray in my opinion (cleanliness is a huge factor for me) also there’s a full section of conventional items like medicines, cigarettes/tobacco products (which are animal tested and/or have animal components).
Read moreTherefore, I personally think that this listing should be updated to Vegetarian status at best. I did see they carry Donut Farm donuts, Kombucha, and vegan snacks- while it’s nice that they carry these items, it’s nothing you couldn’t get at a Sprouts/Whole Foods or visiting the vegan donut shop. Personally I would have liked to have seen a streamline store layout, conversation from gas/oil to electric but I’m an idealist.
Check it out if in the area- but don’t go out of your way to visit. Also, rating elevated because the attendant was nice and welcoming!
Pros: Vegan Options (Donut Farm), Various Kombucha Flavors, 10% Profits Go to Charities
Cons: Unimpressive layout (the outside decor is better), Expensive, Carries Conventional Items (Tobacco Products)

Hello! Thanks for the unfortunate review which certainly distracts people from seeking to support a business that doesn’t support factory farming or calf terrorism/ big dairy . Note that all other stores including your reference of sprouts etc support factory farming and calf terrorism/ big dairy. We don’t. Huge takeaway there, no? The fact that we are there are gas pumps nearby doesn’t undermine the fact that we are the first C-store that doesn’t carry meat or dairy and vividly advocates for animal welfare. The testing on animals via cigarettes is a thing of the past from my research. And Yes our gas is more expensive but then again do the math on 10% donated. Also, referring to the store as lacking “cleanliness” is unfortunately not accurate. I think perhaps it’s unclear to you that supporting establishments that support factory farming and calf thievery inevitably means endorsing those practices.

Thank you so much for providing a prompt response to my rating, but this is based on my lived experience and opinion after visiting the establishment. I do appreciate what your business is attempting to do, but again provided feedback on how I felt the business could do better. Thank you again!

Electric chargers would be great! There's a Chevron nearby with EVgo charging that I normally go to but would be sweet to plug in and grab some snacks while I wait! And yeah I don't understand why sell cigarettes - even if there's no animal testing involved, they're unhealthy and addictive. Maybe switch to Niquitin if it's not available already
