The Cheesecake Factory Vegan Options
Although the name might not sound vegan-friendly, The Cheesecake Factory actually has a pretty decent selection of vegan options to choose from!
An upscale but casual restaurant, The Cheesecake Factory is perfect for date night or a family get together. And with an entirely plant-based option to choose from — the vegan cobb salad — vegans won’t feel left out dining at this restaurant.
While some of The Cheesecake Factory vegan options stick out on the menu, you can also modify some non-vegan options to make them plant-based! Be sure to always tell your server about your dietary restrictions before ordering.
This guide to eating vegan at Cheesecake Factory was verified using their online allergen guide. They have an outdated (over a decade old) complete allergen guide out there, but a new version is nearly impossible to find.
Because a complete allergen menu is so hard to find, if you have any questions or concerns about cross-contamination, you can contact The Cheesecake Factory here.
Some of the menu items contain sugar, and as I’m sure most vegans know, non-organic sugar is not always vegan. If that is a concern for you, talk to your server or stick with the items clearly labeled “vegan.”
After a lot of research, I have put together an easy guide for all Vegan Options at The Cheesecake Factory. Check it out below!
