Hummus Republic Brings Vegan Mediterranean Food to Fort Wayne
A new vegan-friendly restaurant in Fort Wayne is giving Mediterranean food lovers something to celebrate. Hummus Republic has officially opened with a build-your-own concept that makes it easy to craft a flavorful, satisfying vegan meal. While it’s not a fully vegan restaurant, the menu features a wide variety of plant-based ingredients, clearly labeled on their website for easy ordering.
What is hummus
If you’re new to hummus, it’s a creamy, savory spread made primarily from blended chickpeas, tahini (ground sesame paste), lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic. It’s a staple in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, naturally vegan, and rich in protein, fiber, and healthy fats. At Hummus Republic, it’s offered in several flavor-packed varieties that can serve as a base or topping for your bowl, wrap, or pita or as a side with pita chips.
Build your own vegan bowl, wrap, or pita
Hummus Republic makes it easy to create an entirely vegan meal. Start with your base, pick a hummus, add your protein, pile on the toppings, and choose your favorite sauce. Build it into a bowl, a warm wrap, or a convenient pita pocket.
Choose a Base
Every base on the menu is vegan, which means there’s no need to modify or double-check ingredients. Choose from:
- White rice
- Mediterranean couscous
- Warm garbanzo beans
- Spinach
- Kale
- Farmer’s lettuce mix
These bases offer a variety of textures and flavors, from the light and leafy to the warm and hearty.
Choose Your Hummus
As the name suggests, hummus is front and center here, and all flavors are completely vegan:
- Traditional Hummus
- Kalamata Olive Hummus
- Roasted Eggplant Hummus
- Harissa Hummus
From smooth and traditional to bold and spicy, the hummus options add a flavorful, creamy layer to any bowl, wrap, or pita.
Choose Your Vegan Protein
Choose one or both of the plant-based proteins to top your meal:
- Falafel
- Mushroom shawarma
Both options are full of flavor and pair perfectly with the fresh toppings and dressings.
Choose Your Topping
With almost every topping being vegan, there’s no shortage of fresh, crunchy, and colorful toppings to choose from. Vegan options include:
- Chopped tomato
- Cucumber
- Red onion
- Red cabbage
- White cabbage
- Roasted corn
- Beets
- Kalamata olives
- Hot cherry peppers
- Chickpea croutons
- Artichoke heart
- Fried eggplant
- Fried jalapeños
The only topping to skip to keep it vegan is the crumbled feta.
Choose sauces and dressings to finish it off
All sauces and dressings are vegan except for the tzatziki. You can choose from:
- Traditional tahini
- Roasted red pepper tahini
- Garlic jalapeño tahini
- Lemon & olive oil
- Moroccan hot sauce
- Grandma’s hot sauce
Mix and match to finish your bowl or wrap with flavor that’s creamy, spicy, or tangy.
Vegan sides and specials
Looking for something a little different? Try one of these vegan options from the sides and specials menu:
- Earth Burger – A vegan falafel patty topped with sliced tomatoes, onions, white cabbage, cherry peppers, and ketchup. Try it as-is or do it my way: skip the ketchup, take it home, and add vegan mayo and stone ground mustard.
- Dolmades – Stuffed grape leaves filled with rice, herbs, and spices.
