BJ’s has a great selection of vegan-friendly menu items but be aware, they will be on the lighter more whole foods side. No bar food is what I’m getting at unless you are ok with the fried items sharing a fryer with animal menu items.
If so, you could order chips, guac and salsa or fries.
We suggest their Brewhouse Bowl (with modifications, a salad (with modifications) or make a combo plate of their sides.
Here is everything vegan at BJ’s Brewhouse!

No. It contains dairy.
Is BJ’s Enlightened Barbacoa Cauliflower Pita Tacos Vegan?
No. Even if you can remove the cheese and yogurt crema, there is still dairy in the pita.
Is BJ’s Brewhouse Pizza Crust Vegan?
No. We have been told by multiple employees, including an Asst. Executive Kitchen Manager, that all of the pizza crusts include either dairy or egg. This was even after we asked if we could order the pizza without butter brushed on the crust.
