Detroit's popular plant-based pop-up, Street Beet, is expanding to a brick-and-mortar location in Corktown. The restaurant, which has garnered a cult following for its vegan takes on classic American comfort food, officially opened its doors in the former Bobcat Bonnie's space at 1800 Michigan Avenue.
To celebrate this milestone, Street Beet will host a grand opening event from Thursday, December 11th, with festivities running from 4 pm to 11 pm. The venue boasts not only a plant-based menu that includes mouth-watering options like meatless coney dogs, smashburgers, and nachos but also an arcade featuring classic games from Offworld Arcade.
Guests can dine in or order carryout from the walk-up window, making it easy for foodies to enjoy Street Beet's delicious offerings. The restaurant plans to expand its menu soon with a brunch option, full service bar, coffee counter serving vegan pastries, and patio seating – all part of the company's vision to make Street Beet a beloved gathering spot in Corktown.
"We've dreamed of this space for years," said founder Meghan Shaw. "Bringing Street Beet home to Corktown feels unreal – this is our biggest leap yet, and we can't wait to feed everyone again." With its unique blend of plant-based eats and classic arcade games, Street Beet promises to be a must-visit destination in Detroit's vibrant food scene.

! it's been hearing great things about this pop-up and now they're finally getting a brick-and-mortar spot? that's amazing news! I mean, who doesn't love a good vegan coney dog or smashburger 
? and the arcade sounds like so much fun - classic games and all that. i'm definitely down to check it out when it opens on the 11th... can't wait to try their food and play some old-school video games 
. I've heard they're planning to expand the menu soon too, which is awesome - more vegan options? yes please! 
and the arcade games? game on! offworld arcade vibes for days. i've been waiting for this moment for ages, can't wait to try all their new menu items, especially that brunch option... Meghan Shaw is a genius, btw. 
this is gonna be the best gathering spot in corktown, no doubt about it! 
. That being said, an arcade with classic games sounds like a total game-changer (pun intended) 
. And, can we talk about how adorable Meghan Shaw is? 
She's got that "small business owner" charm down pat 
.
. i mean, meatless coney dogs and smashburgers? how original. and what's with the arcade games? like, who thought that was a good idea? tryin' to draw in the kiddos or somethin'? anyway, it's not like they're gonna change the world with their fancy brick-and-mortar spot... just another overpriced meal for people lookin' for a quick Instagram pic 
.
did u no they're opening up another location? 
1800 michigan ave just got a major foodie upgrade! 
4pm-11pm grand opening party tho! 
wanna hit up the arcade too, classic games & all! 
seriously though, corks town really needed a spot like this, now we can finally have a go-to spot for plant-based eats and fun 
. Apparently, plant-based eats have been on the rise by 25% in the past year alone 
. The grand opening event is gonna be lit 
, with over 500 guests expected to attend 
. Street Beet's got its work cut out for it, but with that arcade game selection, they're already gonna be a top spot for gamers and foodies alike 
that's amazing news for detroit foodies! i love how they're bringing classic arcade games to the space too, it's gonna be so lit 
street beet is literally my fave spot in detroit but now it's gonna be super crowded & hard to find a table lol. and what's with all these pop-ups taking over corktown? can't we just have like 1 or 2 cool spots instead of having to travel all the way to ashland to get some good grub 
. Don't get me wrong, I'll give them credit for innovating, but there's gotta be more to this than meets the eye...
gotta try those meatless coney dogs ASAP
