If you’re at the St Louis Lambert International Airport in St Louis and are trying to find what’s vegan (and where you can find it) then you are in the right place! And if you’re not even at the airport yet and are here planning ahead then you get a gold star. 😉
We’ve taken the time to scour through the St Louis (STL) Airport’s Dining Guide to find everything vegan-friendly in the airport and where everything is located.
We are also very fortunate that we have our VeggL community that often reaches out to us to let us know about vegan options that they find in airports as well.
There are more local restaurants in St Louis that we have not been able to get info on. If you happen to stop by one and find vegan options, please let us know!
Vegan Options at St. Louis Airport
Many of the chains listed below are linked to their complete Vegan Guide. Click on their name to see it.
Pre-Security (T1 Lower Level)
Starbucks
If all else fails you can almost always count on finding a Starbucks inside an airport. They have way too many vegan-friendly drinks to list here, most with either no or only slight modifications needed to order them vegan. The Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso is a favorite of mine and can be ordered vegan as-is straight off the menu.
If you’re also getting food, I suggest going with a bagel. Starbucks has multiple varieties of bagels that are vegan including the Plain, Cinnamon Raisin and Everything. Look for Avocado, Justin’s Hazelnut or Classic Almond Butter as a spread.
FYI: If you want to wait until after you’ve gone through security, there are five (yes, five!) more Starbucks located inside the airport.
A Gates
Starbucks (A5)
Plenty of coffee drinks & combos you can create with oat, almond, soy or coconut milk. We have a list of Starbucks options broken down by hot & cold drinks plus modifications.
And don’t forget they have a few food options. Look for the Chickpea & Avocado Protein Box, a bagel (plain, cinnamon raisin or everything), Strawberry Overnight Grains or Oatmeal. They also have plenty of snacks. Check the ingredient lists.
FYI: Sorry if this is going to get repetitive, but there are still four more Starbucks locations in the St Louis Airport.
Dunkin’ and Baskin Robbins (A17)
There is a Dunkin’ and Baskin Robbins combo location near Gate A17.
Multiple bagels (like Everything and Cinnamon Raisin) are available. Avocado Toast and Hashbrowns make Dunkin a decent choice.
Dunkin’ offers oat, almond and coconut milk (with an extra charge) which makes many coffee combinations possible.
If you have a hankering for ice cream and get lucky, this Baskin location might be carrying a non-dairy option. This varies by location.
FYI: There is another Dunkin’ – Baskin Robbins location in E Gates.
C Gates
Starbucks (C2 and C17)
Plenty of coffee drinks & combos you can create with oat, almond, soy or coconut milk. We have a list of Starbucks options broken down by hot & cold drinks plus modifications.
And don’t forget they have a few food options. Look for the Chickpea & Avocado Protein Box, a bagel (plain, cinnamon raisin or everything), Strawberry Overnight Grains or Oatmeal. They also have plenty of snacks. Check the ingredient lists.
E Gates
Auntie Anne’s (E12)
Auntie Anne’s pretzels can be ordered vegan IF they are willing to make yours without the butter that is added BEFORE they go into the oven. This isn’t just a VeggL hack, it’s something that they themselves promote on their website.
Having said that, we’ve had mixed luck trying to do this ourselves. Some locations are willing to do it and some won’t.
Best case scenario you’ll have a bit of a wait because your pretzel will need to be made and cooked. Worst case scenario you get your hopes up for one of those delicious-smelling pretzels and you end up getting let down.
Dunkin’ and Baskin Robbins (E16)
Multiple bagels (like Everything and Cinnamon Raisin) are available. Avocado Toast and Hashbrowns make Dunkin a decent choice.
Dunkin’ offers oat, almond and coconut milk (with an extra charge) which makes many coffee combinations possible.
If you have a hankering for ice cream and get lucky, this Baskin location might be carrying a non-dairy option. This varies by location.
California Pizza Kitchen (E16)
California Pizza Kitchen has some really nice vegan options.
We suggest cross-referencing our CPK vegan guide with the menu that is available at this airport location. Look for their Lettuce Wraps with Chinese Vegetables, Dakota Smashed Pea & Barley Soup or Tomato Basil Spaghetti. These are your vegan as-is options.
CPK’s Plant-Based Chicken is NO longer available. We were made aware of this in May 2023.
Burger King (E16)
The home of one of the original Impossible Burgers, the Impossible Whopper, Burger King can hit the spot if you need some quick vegan-friendly fast food.
Grab an Impossible Whopper – order with NO mayo – and a side of fries.
Starbucks (E16 and E29)
Plenty of coffee drinks & combos you can create with oat, almond, soy or coconut milk. We have a list of Starbucks options broken down by hot & cold drinks plus modifications.
And don’t forget they have a few food options. Look for the Chickpea & Avocado Protein Box, a bagel (plain, cinnamon raisin or everything), Strawberry Overnight Grains or Oatmeal. They also have plenty of snacks. Check the ingredient lists.
