Cute vegan spot tucked away on the corner of Roxboro and Cornwallis offering a variety of thoughtful Cajun, American, and Soul fare. Cozy cafe, great old school music, very clean, and friendly staff. I got the Skrimp Po Boy with Cajun fries, Mackincheez, and collard greens -- everything was delicious and seasoned to perfection. Also very reasonably priced and Black-owned. Thank you Banu Vegan, I will be back!!

Good cafe to get good comfort vegan food. We had the Philly fake steak and jerk burrito wrap.

This was without a doubt, some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had! And the salsa was lit! The best I’ve tasted! Service was not the fastest but very friendly and humble; they’re doing really good business with a very small staff. Definitely worth the wait and I’ll be back!

I'm NOT a vegan and I love eating my meat. BUT, I loved this barbecue Philly fake steak. So yummy!

I recently discovered this hidden gem of a vegan restaurant, and it was so good that I found myself returning the very next day! Although it’s tucked away behind another building and might seem like a little hole in the wall, it’s truly worth the visit.
The food is incredibly well-seasoned, and every dish I tried was delicious. The smoothies are a must-try (very refreshing!) The co-owner, who is the son, is not only friendly but also has a chill vibe that makes the experience even more enjoyable.
If you’re looking for tasty vegan food and a welcoming atmosphere, this place is a must-visit. I’m already looking forward to my next meal there!

Even if you don’t consider yourself vegan, Banu Vegan is an amazing food experience. On par with some of best deli places I’ve tried in NYC or vegan spots in LA. I had the chicken salad wrap. Delicious. Great service too. They’re squeezed in next the Shell gas station. Do yourself a favor and go find this place TODAY.

I’ve been going to Banu Vegan for about a year now and every time it feels like I’m eating their dishes for the first time. I’ve tried multiple vegan spots and I can say hands down this is the best vegan resturant I’ve been too. Can’t wait to see them expand. *Warning* None of the food survived in the photos below.

Very friendly and delicious. My wife and I aren't able to get out on a date often due to work and the kiddos but we have been wanting to try Banu Vegan for a while and made it there for lunch. I eat all things and was a cook ages ago but my wife is more of the veggie type. We shared a side of collards, she got the 'philly' steak and I got the jackfruit Eastern NC 'BBQ' sandwich. All of it was delicious and we'll be back when we can squeak over again. Thanks and keep up the great cookin!

I’m glad I was finally able to get out here. It’s back in the cut but it’s worth it and I plan to go back for more. This time I got the OG Chk Sandwich and fries. It was only $11 but not much food. I should have gotten more.
