SluttyVegan

Slutty Vegan is a vegan burger restaurant founded by Baltimore native Pinky Cole in 2018, which started as an Instagram-based business selling orders from her apartment before expanding to a food truck and eventually multiple brick-and-mortar locations across the country. The Baltimore location, situated at Baltimore Peninsula (321 E Cromwell Street), opened in December 2024 as a homecoming for Cole, who grew up in East Baltimore and continues to emphasize bringing plant-based vegan options to communities through bold, flavorful comfort food with significant cultural energy. The restaurant operates as a private business and has been valued at over $100 million, though the company restructured in 2025 with Cole buying back the brand name and some locations.
