Root Vegan Bar & Restaurant

Root, an all vegan restaurant and bar based in Lancaster, PA, opened in mid-December 2015. The owner Rob Garpstas, a bar and restaurant owner since 1999, became vegan in 2011. He was inspired by his youngest daughter's interest in animal activism. Rob and his family became vegan for health and animal rights reasons after Rob’s father was diagnosed with cancer.

“Root is committed to bettering our environment. We are constantly working towards improving our services and practices to protect the planet that we all call home. By eliminating plastic straws, reducing the amount of takeout waste, and helping animals in need, we hope to inspire others to reduce their footprint as well.”
