I hate giving all vegan spots bad reviews

A lot of processed fake meats. Hardly anything feels like it’s made in house. Ordered the BLT and the difference between the menu photo and the actual thing was abysmal. Very disappointed and unsure why this spot has 5 stars.

Food was good

The food was good. Service was not the best. Did not receive utensils for a takeout order after specifically asking about it. Made eating a bit difficult. Would try again, maybe eat in.

Amazing plant based cafe

Great place for a breakfast, brunch or lunch. I really enjoyed the breakfast sandwich and breakfast bowl. The lattes were awesome with a large selrction of plant based milks. Love that proceeds go toward Beautiful together animal sanctuary.

Very tasty brunch

I loved all of the food I ordered. I ate everything too fast though lol. And it was not cheap but mostly because I got a lot of food. The scone I got was really good, I think it was apple cinnamon or something.

SO good!!

Spent a morning here working on my laptop. I got the strawberry matcha latte, the American breakfast with bacon, and the feta and fig toast. Everything was so insanely good! Haven’t had fried eggs like that since going vegan - they might use YoEgg? Also, their baked goods looked delicious and their staff was so friendly and helpful. Plus free parking!

We really enjoyed our breakfast! A little pricey but what isn’t these days. Will definitely be in our breakfast rotation. Will try the dinner menu on Friday soon.

Tasty food and coffee

Probably the best vegan breakfast sandwiches I’ve had. Only downside is that it’s rather pricey, but it’s a good test on occasion

Delicious!

Very flavorful food with a nice variety on the menu. Service was very friendly. I enjoyed the pesto “chicken” panini while my niece had the avocado toast and my sister had the loaded avocado toast. In the excitement of meeting my family from out of town I forget to get pictures of our food. All of it was served with a nice presentation. We all had speciality coffee with an option for various nondairy milks. Very lovely brunch! I look forward to returning again!

Pros: Prompt, friendly service, Flavorful food, Indoor/outdoor seating

Cons: Limited parking, A little on the pricey side

Good food, cute and trendy decor.

My husband had the Pesto “Chicken” Argula Panini which he really enjoyed. I had the Quinoa & Avocado Buddha Bowl. I liked it but the “chicken” in my dish could have used some more flavor. Would definitely go back to try other options.

Incredibly good

So much to choose from on the menu. We had 3 courses and everything was outstanding. The service was efficient and friendly. A lovely atmosphere with big windows and bright decor. We had some difficulty using the online ordering but were able to place our order at the counter. Free parking in the little deck opposite. Really enjoyed our meal here while visiting Chapel Hill.

Pros: Food selection , Food quality , Helpful and friendly service

Cons: Ordering from our phones didn’t work

Yum!

Great breakfast sandwiches with smoothie and coffee options. We loved the grilled cheese and bacon egg and cheese with chipotle mayo. Only downside was two sandwiches and one coffee was $35.

Pros: All vegan, Gluten free options.

Cons: Expensive

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

Rating after one dining experience so it’s subject to change. I’d give it a 4 if I could give (better) non-vegan restaurants a 5, but that’s another story. I haven’t tried the day menu yet so take that into account also. The whipped feta & fig crostini appetizer was delicious. Cocktails were simple but very good. The burger with beer cheese was good though the brioche was a bit too dense. The burger with wild mushrooms would be a pass for me in the future. The boyfriend really liked the parm fries but I thought they were, as the kids would say, mid. Dessert (crepe and chocolate chip cookie with ice cream) was okay. The crostini and service were the best of the experience. Pretty expensive overall but FWIW I can be very critical. I do wish the entrees were up to the same caliber as the crostini appetizer.

Update after second visit: Still incredibly expensive for what it is. The boyfriend ordered a “large” side of black bean, corn, red pepper salad for $5 and it was the tiniest ramekin. I’m not sure what makes it a large side because he ordered a “small” side of fresh fruit for $3.50 and it was served in the same size container.

Pros: Service, All vegan menu

Fantastic dinner in cute coffee shop/cafe

Took some non vegan friends and they were impressed, especially loved the feta and fig toasts. Shared a Caesar salad too. Lentil tofu paneer curry was delicious!

Such a sweet place

We enjoyed our breakfasts here thoroughly while visiting. Tried a bunch of different options. I’m not fond of coffee in the US in general, but the cortado(with 2 extra shots) in Coco was delicious. We overheard the barista training the new girl, and he was so kind and patient. Great food and great staff. I wholeheartedly recommend.
