Excitement is building in Birmingham as the popular plant-based restaurant, Slutty Vegan, prepares to reopen its doors under new leadership. Birmingham native Reatta Hall has taken over the reins of the beloved eatery, an opportunity made possible by founder Pinky Cole-Hayes, who has gifted the business to Hall.
Hall, who previously served as both general manager and district manager at Slutty Vegan, has been dreaming of owning a restaurant for 16 years. “When the opportunity presented itself, I was ecstatic,” Hall said, reflecting on her excitement to step into this new role. Her passion for food and community has been a driving force throughout her career.
Pinky Cole-Hayes expressed her confidence in Hall’s ability to lead the restaurant, describing it as one of the “most beautiful stories” she has witnessed—a dedicated employee transforming into an owner. Cole-Hayes emphasized the importance of trust in her decision to pass the business along to Hall, someone she feels deeply connected to.
As Hall steps into her new role, she has big plans for the future of Slutty Vegan Birmingham. “We’re hoping to expand next door, add bars, have more seating, and eventually introduce a food truck,” Hall explained. This vision includes not just restoring fan-favorite menu items but also expanding offerings to cater to the growing community around them.
Hall, a wife, mother of four, and a local veteran, is inspired by her mother’s work ethic. She sees her ownership as an opportunity to focus on growth—both for the brand and the community it serves. “It’s about growth within the community, growth within the brand, and expansion,” Hall added, echoing her commitment to making a meaningful impact.
Mark your calendars for the grand reopening event scheduled for Saturday, October 19, from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.. The celebration is set to be vibrant, offering FREE samples, sneak peeks of new menu items slated for next year, and exciting giveaways. This event not only signifies the reopening of a cherished restaurant but also a fresh chapter for Slutty Vegan Birmingham.
For Cole-Hayes, the reopening is a celebration of the restaurant’s growth and connection to the Birmingham community. “We’ve done some amazing things in Birmingham and Woodlawn, and I feel like the timing couldn’t be any better,” she remarked. Her sentiments emphasize how the restaurant has remained a beloved fixture in the city, fostering relationships with locals and creating a fun dining atmosphere.
As Reatta Hall takes ownership, fans of Slutty Vegan can look forward to not just their favorite menu items, but an enriched experience that prioritizes community engagement. Hall’s leadership is expected to infuse the restaurant with renewed energy and creativity, bringing even more flavor to Birmingham.
With the grand reopening on the horizon, local residents are eagerly anticipating Slutty Vegan’s next chapter, ready to enjoy the unique plant-based offerings and take part in a celebration that promises to unite the community over good food and shared experiences.
