Planta Queen runs a happy hour — plus a late-night version — on specialty cocktails, martinis, spritzes, vegan sushi, and shareable bites at a sleek, plant-based Asian-fusion restaurant in NoMad.
The kitchen is fully plant-based, and the happy hour reflects it: specialty cocktails, martinis, and spritzes alongside vegan sushi and shareable bites at lower prices, with a separate late-night happy hour for after-dinner crowds. The headline food is the cult Bang Bang Broccoli, the Truffle Udon, and the vegan maki. Exact happy-hour times and prices aren’t published online, so confirm the current schedule when you book — we won’t print a window we can’t verify.
Planta Queen: Vegan Sushi and a Happy Hour in NoMad
Planta Queen is the NoMad outpost of the plant-based group that turned vegan sushi into a destination — and it runs a happy hour (plus a late-night one) on cocktails, martinis, spritzes, vegan sushi, and shareable bites. Cult Bang Bang Broccoli, Truffle Udon, and a sleek, date-ready room. Times aren’t posted online, so confirm when you book.
About Planta Queen
Part of the PLANTA group (locations across the U.S. and Canada), Planta Queen NoMad is a fully plant-based, Asian-fusion restaurant — sushi-bar precision meets glossy share plates. The menu leans on texture: crispy, torched, chilled, sauced. Signatures include the Bang Bang Broccoli (it has its own merch), Truffle Udon, vegan maki and nigiri, dumplings, and a Planta Burger, with plant-based desserts like a matcha cheesecake to close.
The Happy Hour in Detail
The venue runs both a happy hour and a late-night happy hour:
- Specialty cocktails, martinis, and spritzes at happy-hour prices
- Vegan sushi and shareable bites at lower prices
- A late-night version that carries the same deal after dark
Exact times and prices aren’t published online — confirm the current schedule when you reserve. But a cocktail-and-vegan-sushi happy hour, with a late-night encore, is a rare find in NoMad.
What to Order
The Bang Bang Broccoli is the order — it has a following for a reason. Add the Truffle Udon, a few pieces of vegan maki or the pressed nigiri, and the crispy rice. On drinks, the cocktails and spritzes carry the happy hour. Save room for the matcha cheesecake or banana pudding.
The Space & Vibe
Trendy and date-ready — a lively, design-forward room with covered outdoor seating, music, and an energy that works for groups mixing vegans and non-vegans (it’s one of the easier “everyone’s happy” dinners in NoMad). It gets busy; reservations are recommended, though walk-ins can sometimes grab a table or a seat at the bar.
The NoMad Angle
15 West 27th Street, between Broadway and Sixth Avenue in NoMad, near Madison Square Park and the Flatiron Building. The R/W and 6 at 28th Street are closest, with the F/M at 23rd Street a short walk. It’s an easy add to a NoMad or Flatiron evening.
