This Vegan Fast-Food Restaurant in a Former McDonald's Is Out to Change the World
Briefly

Face Plant, a new plant-based drive-thru in Portland, seeks to improve the narrative that the world is getting worse by providing enjoyable, affordable meals in a nostalgic setting. Co-founders Matt Plitch and Molly Baz have created a menu that marries classic fast-food elements with plant-based ingredients. The restaurant's interior and friendly service add to the experience, evoking a sense of nostalgia while being family-friendly. At $44.50 for a meal for four, Face Plant offers a cost-effective alternative to typical fast food, aiming to be a beloved staple without compromising on flavor or experience.
"Face Plant feels like fast food before you knew about politics or climate change, before you worried about germs in the ball pit and just dove in."
"Baz and Plitch have cooked up the perfect combo of umami, salt, fat, and tang that makes food craveable."
