Disappointing - Edit
The staff were friendly but the food came out cold, which was disappointing. Had the bean soup, fries and whiskey burger and all were only okay.

Great food, tiny portions - Edit
Love the food here, but it’s pretty expensive and portions are way too small for the price.

Nice breakfast - Edit
I found By Chloe initially using the Uber Eats app in Boston. I really enjoyed the food I ordered (the guac burger and greek salad), and while in New York decided to visit one of the outlets for breakfast. The space was clean, light and welcoming. (They can fit additional tables inside to accommodate more guests.) I ordered the breakfast burrito, which was delicious. My only suggestion would be to improve food presentation... the burrito laid out on its disposable plate looked overly spare.

Just okay - Edit
It is about what you would expect for a more 'fast food' style joint. However, I found the food a little underwhelming both times we stopped by. The flavours weren't quite as strong as I'd hope and they were some textures we weren't quite pleased with.
Read moreWe also tried a couple of desserts. The banana bread was more chocolate chip than banana, and the chocolate cupcake was very very heavy, closer to a muffin.
The lemonade was very nice, and the pancakes were good for a quick stop.
There were some heavily run down tables. One of the tables we tried to sit at, the tabletop was mostly detached from the stand, making it impossible to utilize.
Was also disappointed in the beet ketchup. Just weird.
Pros: quick service, cost efficient
Cons: blandish food, unkempt tables

Average - Edit
The classic burger was ok but not astonishing. The sweet potato fries were soaked in oil and felt really heavy. Surely a good place for a fast grab and go, but not for a joyful meal.

Average - Edit
Heard a lot of good things and read good reviews about this place but I must say I was not THAT impressed. I ordered the brunch with the tofu scramble and it was just nothing special. Lack of flavor and seasoning. I finished it with the feeling that I could have done better myself.
Read moreThe "air" fries were good tho.
The space was also not very clean and there seemed to be no rush from the employers to take care of that.
Pros: Various Locations, All vegan, fries
Cons: not that flavourful, not that clean

Amazing place - Edit
Several places in the town, all of them nice and the food super yummy. I loved the mac n 'cheese, the chocolate chip cookie, the quinoa bowl mexican style, the meatballs pesto sandwich and the breakfast burger with scrambled tofu. There is Wi-Fi.

A good fast food chain in New York, but with no soul - Edit
This chain offers a good variety of vegan food, fastly served. I tried one of their wrap, a hot dog and cupcakes. The food was good (the wrap was not exceptional, I preferred the hot dog) but relatively small for the price. You are served quickly, the place seems nice (and has room inside) but there are no vibes. You feel like in every same fast food with no soul. It remains a good place to eat quickly but not for a pleasant dinner or lunch.
Read morePros: 100% vegan, good food
Cons: no vibes, small portions, a little pricey

Quite possibly the best vegan restaurant in NYC - Edit
By Chloe has got it all - the quirky IG-able decor, the extensive and inventive all-vegan menu and some of the most delicious vegan food you’ll ever eat.
Read moreWe opted for The Classic Burger, complete with the most incredible ‘beet ketchup’ (you HAVE to try it!), a sizeable portion of Avocado Pesto Pasta, air baked sweet potato fries and Mac N’ Cheese made from a sweet potato-cashew cheese sauce, topped with shiitake bacon and almond parmesan.
I literally dream about that Mac N’ Cheese now.
The sauce was so thick and creamy.
The ‘bacon’ the most incredible, moreish, smokey flavour.
The almond parmesan so nutty, salty, punchy.
Urrrgghh. Please let me go back to NY just for that!
We finished the rather sizeable meal (aka eyes bigger than our belly moment, aka just like the rest of our trip) and then I decided to tip myself over the edge with a gluten free chocolate chip cookie that was an ooey, gooey, melty cookie-shaped piece of NOM.
Pros: Inventive menu, Delicious food, Gorgeous setting

Good, fresh fast food - Edit
Plenty of seating in this pleasant, modern, airy cafe. We all enjoyed our breakfast choices, and the staff were very nice. My only complaint is that in spite of the large amount of eat-in space, the food is served in take-out plastic compartmentalised trays with very flimsy plastic cutlery. Would have been a nice place for a slow, relaxed breakfast, but the serving receptacles made it feel as though you should ram it down and get out😄
Read morePros: Great for breakfast, Pleasant, airy interior , Plenty of seating
Cons: Take-out plastic trays for eat-in food

Good food - location could be better - Edit
Sehr gutes, veganes self service fast food. Auf Grund der Nähe zu unserem Hotel waren wir zwei mal dort, 1x abends und 1x Frühstück. Burger mit fries, Mac&Cheese und Salat waren sehr gut. Scrambled Tofu und Pancakes extrem lecker, da braucht man kein Ei mehr!
Read moreDie Location ist eher nüchtern, kühl und mit wenig Charme. Da hatte ich nicht zuletzt auf Grund der durch gestylten Marke viel mehr erwartet.
Einweggeschirr zum Glück plantbased
Die Preise für Europäer gewöhnungsbedürftig...
Pros: 100% vegan
Cons: für Europäer gefühlt sehr teuer

yummy fries, flimsy burger - Edit
The sweet potato fries were delicious. The burger pattie was probably the thinnest I've ever had, on a bun that was not that great.

Gem in the city - Edit
I absolutely loved it here. The avocado pesto pasta was amazing, and at about $6, it was an affordable snack. I experienced delightful/helpful customer service as I ordered my food and picked it up from the counter. Free water/cups were also available by the utensils. I def recommend this adorable and spacious vegan restaurant.
Read morePros: Taste/quality/presentation , Affordability, cleanliness, spacious , Location of vegan food
Cons: There aren’t many more locations , No metal utensils to reduce waste , No reusable plates/bowls to reduce waste
