Just order some chicken strips from the kids menu, Timmy.
Vegan restaurants don't have meat. Odd to have to explain this.

Has anyone ever been in a situation like this and what did you do?
I wouldn't attend. If they're that inconsiderate of dietary norms there's no reason for me to attend.

Is this during the week during work hours? Assuming this is the case, feign a last minute project/report that you have to finish during the lunch hour, and meet them for dessert/coffee after lunch.
My issue isn’t the vegan thing at all. If you attend one of these, you’re on the hook for the subsequent ones. Best to not go and nip it in the bud.
This is all assuming it’s during work hours. If on a sat/sun, just politely decline.

Yea assuming you can avoid carrot hot dogs and jackfruit ribeyes vegan food can be pretty good.

I wouldn't go and never felt a need to offer an explanation. Co-workers are not friends and no reason to treat them as such.

Well at least you got invited. Think about that.
I heard they were going to play paintball afterwards.

I looked at the menu and there is not one thing on it that I would be willing to eat.
No hamburgers or pizza on the menu? You sound like a pussy. If I were one of your co-workers and noticed you not eating anything I would think you're a bitch.

Thankfully, no. I don’t work with anyone who is close to vegan.

Order red beans & rice with corn bread. I am sure you can eat that.

Stick a couple of packs of tuna fish in you pocket and put them on your salad.

If there's really nothing on the menu you are willing to try, I would eat a big breakfast and go to the lunch but not order anything.
Or show up with some bbq ribs and eat them in front everyone while they eat their vegan dishes.
