Saturday's "Fresh Catch" That’s Actually Plant-Based

Y’all… as your resident vegetarian who repeatedly remarks, “If I fall off the wagon it won’t be for steak or chicken, it’ll be fresh catch,” I was beyond excited to see “Vegan Seafood Popup!” in my feed this week; I literally did a double-take to make sure I had in fact read that correctly.

Get ready to rethink everything you know about a fish fry when Oh My Cod Vegan Seafood Co. drops anchor at Nickelpoint Brewing Co. on Friday, April 10, 2026. As the first all-vegan mobile seafood vendor in the state, these folks have spent years perfecting the art of the “nostalgic” catch without the actual scales.

The star of the show is their famous banana blossom fish and chips, a plant-based miracle that mimics the flaky texture of the real deal. Pair your basket with a crisp Nickelpoint brew and settle onto the Pershing Road patio for a meal that satisfies the “fresh catch” craving while keeping your vegetarian status fully intact. It’s the ultimate Raleigh Friday night: great beer, better vibes, and a menu that’s as clever as it is delicious.

📍 506 Pershing Road, Raleigh, NC 27608
📅 Saturday, April 11, 2026 | 12-5 p.m.

Finally, a “seafood” platter that won’t make me question my life choices. See you in the line for the banana blossom!
