Welcome Vegans and Vegetarians!

The Vegetarian Network of Austin is Austin's longest-serving family-friendly social and educational vegetarian group, active in promoting vegetarianism in Austin since 1996. We aim to make it easier for new people to find out about vegan and vegetarian resources, businesses and activities in Austin.

We have two meetings each month, a potluck dinner held at one of our members' homes, and a restaurant visit for lunch or dinner a a local vegetarian or vegan establishment, or at least one with a vegetarian-friendly atmosphere and menu. We also sometimes have food classes, film presentations, and tabling efforts at local events.

You don't have to be vegan or vegetarian to attend our events, but we ask that you bring a vegan dish to our potlucks and order vegetarian at our restaurant visits.

January events

This month we'll be having our regular monthly potluck in South Austin, at Candace's house, on Saturday the 14th. This will be followed by our monthly restaurant visit, at Casa de Luz for lunch on Sunday the 29th. Please note that Casa de Luz is no longer serving their Sunday brunch, it is now a regular lunch. See our calendar page for more details.
