Do you love trying new vegetarian & vegan restaurants?  Do you enjoy the company of fellow vegetarians & vegans?  Are you occasionally frustrated that your meat-eating friends "don't get it," and do you wish to dine with others that have the same enthusiasm for vegetarian and vegan food that you do?

Welcome to our group.  What I am especially proud of is all the wonderful members we have.  We seem to attract some of the very nicest, most thoughtful people in New York.  Given the focus of our group, I am not surprised.

New York has many excellent vegetarian and vegan restaurants, and new ones are opening all the time.  Join us as we explore them all, and enjoy dining with some of the kindest, most gracious, most socially-conscious people in New York.

Plus, join us as we go out on the town to vegetarian and vegan friendly bars and lounges.  And partake when we go to visit some outstanding music venues.  Great ways to have delightful nights on the town in the company of a fun and friendly group of vegetarians and vegans.

We warmly welcome all vegetarians and vegans as well as those that are considering a vegetarian or vegan diet.

Last year our meetup group was profiled in a news story on CNN's Headline News channel. Check out the video.
