The owners at Dirks’ Pizza are happy to accommodate vegetarians and vegans. They often have vegan cheese on hand if you ask and the Garden Delight pizza is loaded with veggies and can be made vegan on either the regular or gluten free crust with two sauce options!
The Early Bird
The Early Bird is the ideal place to grab vegan brunch in Ellensburg. They offer everything from espresso to alcohol and are family friendly, making us wish they were open just a smidge past 2pm.

The easiest things to veganize are Beet Hummus Toast, Avocado Toast, and the Buddha Bowl, but they can substitute tofu scramble for eggs on any menu item!

Be sure to check out the art on the walls - one of the owners is the photographer responsible for the photo work you’ll see inside.
