Scooter’s Coffee: What’s Vegetarian Editorial Review

Every drink at Scooter’s Coffee is vegetarian, so the only real decision is what to skip in the food case. The bacon ciabatta sandwich, spicy sausage burrito, and breakfast sliders are the sole meat items on the board. Scooter’s is the second-largest drive-through coffee chain in the country, and the menu leans on espresso, blended treats, and a small rotating pastry case, which keeps the meat items easy to spot by name.

What to order at Scooter’s Coffee

Order any espresso drink, from the Latte and Cappuccino to the signature Caramelicious, since none contain meat. Cold Brew and Iced Americanos are vegan when taken black. Fruit ‘N Ice smoothies and the Red Bull Infusion are both vegetarian and vegan. In the food case, the cinnamon roll, Triple Cheese Croissantie, and Tomato & Feta Omelet Bites all work for vegetarians who eat dairy and egg.

What to watch out for

Milk-based drinks like lattes, mochas, and the Blender line use dairy, so ask for oat, almond, or coconut milk if you want them vegan, and keep in mind sauces like the Caramelicious syrup still contain dairy even with a milk swap. The Bacon Ciabatta Sandwich and Spicy Sausage Burrito are the only two menu items to steer around entirely. Sparkling and dirty sodas sometimes add cream or marshmallow, so check before you order one of those.
