Back in March, the Vegans Explore team had the chance to visit Plant Based Mafia in Palm Beach Gardens—and it quickly became clear why so many people love this spot. The energy, the flavor, and the commitment to bold, familiar comfort food made it a standout on our South Florida tour.
Now, they’re taking things to the next level.
We’re excited to share that Plant Based Mafia is officially franchising, with plans to expand across the country. That means more cities will get to experience what locals in Palm Beach Gardens already know: this isn’t your average Vegan restaurant. It’s hearty, satisfying food made for anyone who wants flavor without compromise.
As part of the transition, the original location—the one that started it all—will be closing on November 1st. But they’re not going quietly.
From now through October 30th, they’re running a string of weekly specials:
- Discounted burgers and sandwiches
- Pizza bundles
- Pasta deals with bottomless sodas and drink pairings
And to top it all off, they’re throwing a Halloween send-off with live entertainment, giveaways, and free food.
We’re grateful to Plant Based Mafia for welcoming us earlier this year, and we’re looking forward to visiting again before the flagship location closes. If you’re local—or just passing through—now’s the time to stop by, enjoy the specials, and support one of South Florida’s most ambitious plant-based brands.
We’ll be watching as this next chapter unfolds and cheering them on as they bring their flavor to more cities nationwide.
