Excellent - Edit
The place is small but the food is amazing. They had the BEST cheez sauce i have ever tasted. And while a sandwich might be almost $15, it is huge and you can easily make 2 meals out of it. Definitely one of my favorite places.

Vegan Deli and Butcher - Edit
Vegan Deli and Butcher is absolutely phenomenal! It was our favourite place to eat in St. Louis during our 2026 trip. I lived in St. Louis a short time over 20 years ago, and I would’ve never thought an option like this would exist in my lifetime…I was elated to see how busy the restaurant was!
Read moreWe shared two sandwiches. I believe one was an Italian sandwich, and the other one was the Philly cheesesteak sandwich. We absolutely loved both, but the Italian sandwich was the winner! The layers of vegan protein and combination of flavours were perfect. The sandwiches were also massive and could easily be split between two people (or you can take half home). The sandwiches were so good that the person who dined with me (and is not vegan) couldn’t stop talking about them for days. He even mentioned how it was his absolutely favourite place in St. Louis. This is food done right. If you can only eat at one place in St. Louis during a visit, I would absolutely recommend this be the place.

Favorite Sandwiches! - Edit
VDB is my favorite restaurant in Saint Louis. I go here weekly for a pick me up mid-week sandwich. All of their sandwiches are great and I love trying new specials. It also helps that this location is one of the closest vegan resultants to me about ten minutes away.
Read moreSmall but mighty crew with Chef Chris leading the pack. My favorite go to sandwich is the Chopped Cheese (cut in half to share!) with party pots (funeral potatoes) on the side. Also the cevapi is another of my favorite go tos but I love switching up sandwiches on the menu or the specials. All time favorite sandwich so far is the roast beef sandwich but always love the new soup and sandwiches combos.
I can be picky about good restaurants for the value because I cook a lot of vegan food at home. If I feel like if I can make it better at home I don’t want to patron a business as often. Chris is talented in a lot of ways and he makes the sandwiches with optimal flavor and balance.
One of my favorite community spots as I have made several friends while bonding over are love of this restaurant in Bevo!

One of the best - Edit
I love this place. Favorite sandwich is the boston beef. I’ve been all over and I’ve never seen a vegan chicago italian beef or boston beef before. They have multiple specials throughout the week that they announce on instagram too. The sandwiches are absolutely massive for what they cost. They can get busy and sell out (particularly the specials) so I’d recommend going earlier than later.

Great options! - Edit
The sandwiches are big and the variety is incredible for vegans. Our party had the chopped cheese, pizza sub, and Reuben. The only maybe negative was the cheese on the Ruben (no one in our party cared for it), but our entire group loved everything else.

Delicious Vegan Food!!! - Edit
I love this place! The owner makes everything in house no Impossible or Beyond here. I finally was able to experience the Big Mac special and it was gigantic and delicious! I love the mac n cheese, the frozen pizzas and the desserts. I don't know how he does it! I love the Vegan Deli & Butcher decal it's great! I wish I lived closer I would go weekly. Definitely sells out quick so get there early or check Instagram page for info because traveling 30 + minutes just to get there and they be sold out is a bummer.
Read morePros: 100% vegan menu, Delicious food, Great service
Cons: Location, No phone number to check if sold out

The best deli! - Edit
I’ve had Vegan Deli and Butcher twice so far and both times it’s been amazing. I’m always wary of vegan foods trying to hard to imitate meat but I think Chris (owner) has found the perfect mix. I will say I’ve only had the Italian Cold Cut. Will be going back for more though.

Sorry you think that. We love the area and hope you give it another chance. Super historic area and super eclectic. It has its charm. And we fortunately are one of the few places with off street parking:) That’s pretty huge.

Vegan Deli and Butcher? More like Vegan Deli is b*tchin! - Edit
Bad pun? Bad pun. No but for real best vegan place in the city, unique concept and the staff & owners are super friendly and attentive. The only complaint I have is that they're not open 24/7 because it's all I want to eat! Got the hot Italian sandwich and cheddar broccoli soup.

Holy sh*t - Edit
Oh my gosh. That’s truly the best thing to say about this place. I tried the Italian Cold Cut (hoagie, ham, turkey pepperoni, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pepperoncini, mayo, and vinaigrette) and it was seriously one of the best things I’ve eaten. It reminded me of the sandwiches my dad used to make me for lunch as a kid. The owners were telling us that they make the vegan meats in house which is even more impressive - because honestly, they are soooooo good. The atmosphere is clean and chill. They have some take away food to cook in the fridge including taco meat and a couple types of pizzas. I also tried the jumbo crumb cupcake and that was very tasty. Yum!

Best sandwiches ever! - Edit
Chris is a fo meat wizard. You haven't lived until you try his amazing food. There is a reason he rings out of food to sell almost daily. Get there early. No guarantees after 3pm. Totally worth the drive in hopes of partaking in his delicious deli eats.

A St. Louis Vegan Darling - Edit
Vegan Deli & Butcher has been on my “must visit” list for a long while, and for good reason! They’re serving up delicious sandwiches like muffulettas and Cubans, they’re slinging filling sides like mac & cheese AND if you’re hunting for an excellent frozen St. Louis style pizza to heat up at home and enjoy, then you’re in the right place!
