The people of Rhode Island are absolutely spoiled to have this restaurant within their borders. As a vegan of 6 years, I had to ask a few times if something was vegan because it tasted too good and scared me a little. The ranch dressing was one of those items. The icing on the lemon cake was another. I also had the best hash brown patties in my life here. I know some will say it's because it's overly salted, but I'm telling you, it's not. Here on vacation and sad we won't be able to pick through the entire menu over time. I guess we'll have to come back at some point (ohhhhh nooooo ).

Best vegan burger I’ve ever had! The bacon ranch hopper was so flavorful and crispy, highly recommend. The service was super friendly, and outdoor seating was great in the summer. The inside is decorated really tastefully too. Oh also, can’t forget about the cupcakes! We loved the matcha strawberry and double chocolate, they were super moist and perfectly not-too-sweet :)

I can’t say enough about Basil & Bunny! I just moved to the area and as a vegan who either doesn’t know what options are around here and/or doesn’t feel like there are enough options anywhere, finding this restaurant was a dream come true! They check off every single box: excellent food, excellent prices, very excellent portions, and excellent service. Kindness and great food-what more could a person need?

This is a hidden gem in Bristol, RI. Unbelievable selection of vegan/veg items, the most delicious variety of foods and flavors. The atmosphere is very welcoming, unique with good vibes all around. I got the Bunny Blake burger and sweet potato waffle fries, my date got the Buff Bunny and fries. Everything was UNREAL. It was very busy and the staff was working incredibly hard to get orders out, so please be kind to them. I can’t wait to try the rest of the menu!

It took a while however I was finally able to try Basil & Bunny in Bristol RI. It's a comfy spot that offers a plant based menu consisting of smash burgers, crispy chicken sandwiches (seitan), taco bowl, beef n broccoli bowl and a Korean bowl oh and I forgot to mention the cheez steak sub. I opted for the taco bowl and I must say that it was one of the more memorable meals that I've every enjoyed. If you're exhausted looking for alternative sources of cuisine then look no further. Basil & Bunny is exceptional and once the warmer temps arrive, there's also outdoor seating.

Such a hidden gem! I’m so happy I found this place. There aren’t many vegan/vegetarian restaraunts around & honestly this is the best one I’ve been to. The menu has so much to offer. We ordered 2 burgers and fries 10/10. Very welcoming, service was great & our food was brought to our table after we ordered at the counter. You can sit inside or outside on the patio weather permitting of course. Can’t wait to go back!
