Liam Cutwater · August 25, 2026

Atlanta's viral Slutty Vegan is dropping its saucy burgers and unapologetic attitude in Cleveland this fall. Here’s what fans can expect.
There’s a juicy, plant-based shake-up headed straight for Cleveland: Atlanta’s wildly popular Slutty Vegan is set to open its doors in town this fall. The burger chain, famous for its sassy attitude and in-your-face menu, is finally touching down lakeside—and yes, Cleveland, you’re ready for it.
What is Slutty Vegan?
Created by entrepreneur and reality TV personality Pinky Cole Hayes, Slutty Vegan has made big waves in Atlanta and beyond by blending the fun of fast food with the flavors of 100% vegan ingredients. The concept is all about turning stereotypes on their head—think comfort food that’s good for you, but with zero preachiness and a side of big personality. If you’re already drooling, you should know you’re not alone: every city they hit gets lines around the block.
What’s On the Slutty Menu?
This is not your typical veggie burger spot. Slutty Vegan's decadently named creations bring heat, flavor, and more than a little swagger.
- One Night Stand: An epic combo of a vegan patty, vegan bacon, cheese, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, and "Slut Sauce," all on a Hawaiian bun.
- Dancehall Queen: Jerk-spiced plant-based patty loaded with all the fixings.
- Fries and More: Expect loaded fries and extra sides perfect for soaking up the saucy fun.
Every bite comes with a healthy dose of attitude, and even the most carnivorous Clevelanders might end up feeling, well, a little slutty.
The Woman Behind the Brand
Pinky Cole Hayes isn’t just running one of the hottest vegan chains in the country—she’s a cultural force. A philanthropist and author, she also just joined Season 17 of “Real Housewives of Atlanta.” Her mission? Bring plant-based eating to the masses and prove it can be nothing but fun, filling, and a little bit naughty. The Cleveland location marks another win in her quest to put delicious, vegan comfort food on every city’s radar.
