3rd & Vine (1929 Third St., Eau Claire) continues to champion its “Vegan Special Sundays” with rotating bites and brews for patrons to savor. Live Great Food Truck has placed in the top three for voters and vegan eaters of the Valley; its rotating menu — and seasonal classics — offer something for everyone at area events and private occasions. For local legends (and voters it seems), The Nucleus Cafe (405 Water St., Eau Claire) offers not only a vegan-accessible menu for breakfast and lunch, but a quaint spot for watching the bustling activity of downtown Water street. —Evelyn Nelson
