This is the second location in Atlanta. Its first college campus opening was at Georgia Tech in February, RollingOut reported.
Cole shared the news of her vegan eatery grand opening on her Instagram page.
“Hey, y’all. It’s me again, Pinky Cole-Hayes, and you know we just had our fifth anniversary,” she said. “So, right now, I’m on Spelman College’s campus, and it’s move-in day. Guess who else is moving in?”
Spelman also announced that its dining spaces and food options had been updated on its Instagram page.
“Just in time for the new academic year, Spelman College is excited to partner with Bon Appetit to create a new dining experience that reflects the College’s culture of excellence,” the Instagram post noted. “The dining services program, which serves some of the nation’s notable and historic colleges and universities, is uncompromising in its mission to provide fresh, healthy, high-quality foods that are responsibly sourced. In addition to revamped dining spaces and offerings and the return of the Starbucks location, new retail options will be available, including Ace Sushi and Black-owned vegan restaurant Slutty Vegan.”
According to Afro Tech, Cole has soared in the burger business quickly. The company started in 2018 when the owner made vegan burgers from her apartment for sale. In addition to her Slutty Vegan chains, she owns an upscale restaurant called Bar Vegan in Atlanta’s Ponce City Market.
