Vegan QSR Expansions

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Pinky Cole to Cut Ribbon at New Georgia Tech Location of Slutty Vegan

— February 24, 2023 — Lifestyle
Pinky Cole, CEO of the popular vegan burger joint Slutty Vegan, is opening her ninth brick-and-mortar location on Georgia Tech’s campus on February 27th. The restaurant will offer its classic carry-out menu, featuring creative takes on vegan burgers, sandwiches, and more made with plant-based meat and all sporting racy names.

The John Lewis Student Center will house the restaurant, and the new location will be the brand’s first on a college campus. The full menu will be available for takeout and delivery, and the location will also feature new items like Cheesy Heaux, a vegan grilled cheese sandwich, and Mini Slut Burgers, three plant-based burger sliders. Pinky Cole will be cutting the ribbon at 9am on opening day.

Slutty Vegan has been recognized nationally and has won several awards, including Best Burger by VegOut Magazine’s 2022 VegOut Awards, and Pinky Cole has been named to Forbes Next 1000 and Restaurant Hospitality’s 2021 Power List.
