V’s Vegan Diner Closes Shortly After Seeking Help from the Community

CASSELBERRY, Fla. – A vegan diner in Casselberry announced that it has closed its doors just 10 days after taking to social media to plead for customer support.

V’s Vegan Diner posted on social media on Sunday announcing the closure of the business.

On March 14, the restaurant, located at 908 State Road 436, asked for help saying in part that that the community was very supportive in its first few weeks of business, but recently sales “declined fairly drastically.”

The next day, the restaurant again posted saying that they ran out of items after being flooded with customers. On Wednesday they said “since we make all our proteins from scratch, we will need time to regroup and strategize our next steps.”

Those next steps ultimately led to the restaurant’s closing, according to their Facebook post.

Read their entire statement below:

“It is with the utmost regret that we announce the closing of V’s Diner in Casselberry. While we can look back and theorize at all the things we could have done differently or did not do, we want to use this opportunity to focus on the many things we did accomplish. Although ultimately not financially successful, we were extremely successful in numerous other ways. In creating an amazing space for our community, a fully house-made hand-crafted vegan meat program, a world class vegan bakery program, a reliable daily solution for guests at every different step on their journey towards veganism, and at times over-the-top hospitality to create some amazing experiences. We don’t know yet what the future holds for V’s Diner. Thank you for all the support, ideas, offers, well wishing, and most of all, from the bottom of our hearts, for letting us serve you over the years. It has truly been an honor.”
