What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Veggie Galaxy is a diner-style vegetarian restaurant in the Central Square neighborhood of Cambridge, Massachusetts, at 450 Massachusetts Ave. According to Wikipedia, owner Adam Penn opened the diner in 2011 after running his first vegetarian restaurant, Veggie Planet, in Harvard Square for more than a decade; the menu covers breakfast, lunch, and dinner built around vegetarian and vegan dishes. Veggie Galaxy appeared on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives in the episode "Unique Eats," which aired 2019-10-18, with the show highlighting its all-day vegetarian diner fare. A Yelp listing updated in September 2026 showed the restaurant still taking reviews at its Massachusetts Avenue address, and a 2026-09-07 search found veggiegalaxy.com continuing to list current hours and menu information. An automated check of the restaurant's own site returned an access error on 2026-09-08, but the Yelp listing and live website content together indicate the restaurant remains open.
