Stand-Up Burgers is standing tall in Chicago.
Created by the team at Veggie Grill, a plant-based restaurant chain headquartered in California, Stand-Up serves vegan burgers, fries and shakes and is now open at 204 N. Wells St. The first Stand-Up opened in March in Berkley, California, and both locations offer only plant-based options, including the BBQ Bacon Cheeseburger, the Freebird Crispy Chicken Sandwich, onion rings and Save the Animal-Style Fries, according to a company press release.
"There has never been a better time to eat sustainably, and we are excited to introduce Stand-Up Burgers to the Chicago community so they can show love for the planet, animals and themselves, one plant-based burger at a time," T.K. Pillan, a co-founder of Veggie Grill's and Stand-Up, said in the release. "This second Stand-Up Burgers location advances Veggie Grill's mission to excel plant-based eating nationwide and empower people to eat less meat by providing them with innovative and delicious plant-based experiences."
