Always Good

We've been to several Fresh locations in Toronto and love the extensive healthy and delicious vegan menu. The physical spaces are attractive and service is prompt and attentive.

Great healthy food!

Stopped here for lunch and was very impressed. Very friendly service. We ordered the bundle for 2 which was reasonably priced! We had the cauliflower bites, the squash tacos and the cobb salad and all were absolutely delicious! The best cauliflower wings I've had! On the expensive side but worth it for the quality of the food! Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Cauliflower wings, Vegetable forward options, Generous portions

Decent

There are many nutritious options on the menu. I opted for the Watermelon Crush (basically what it says: blended/crushed watermelon served over ice) and their "eat your greens!" dish, which is essentially a salad with edamame, microgreens, nappa cabbage, cucumber, and parsley, along with the addition of avocado and vegan feta. Everything was indeed fresh, refreshing, and tasty. Though slightly overpriced, for me, the Canadian to U.S. dollar exchange rate certainly worked in my favor.

Pros: Fresh and Nutritious options, Good service, Relaxing vibe

A good go to option

Although it's overpriced, I do still really enjoy Fresh. The portions are waaay smaller than they used to be for the same cost... still tasty, but I hope they can reel it in moving forward.

Good experience

Came from out of town where I had never seen Fresh restaurants. For a first experience it was really nice, mid afternoon so not too busy, and the food was really tasty. Definitely more on the healthy eating side as well, if you’re interested in that.

Yummy, convenient vegan chain

We had Fresh on Bloor as it was a quick walk from our hotel after landing in Toronto and needing some distance quick. My boyfriend landed a couple of days before me and this was his second time eating here. It’s a chain but felt like the food quality was good. I tried a Cesar salad and added their chik’n and it was very yummy and fresh. A really good salad portion too. My boyfriend had their Buffalo wrap (for the second time). While we didn’t try any of their fresh pressed juices, they did look good! Especially in the Toronto heat. Our server was incredibly friendly/warm with lots of good recommendations of other places to try and places to see during our stay. If you need a quick bite but still quality good, this is a good spot! Several locations across Toronto too.

Good food but very noisy

Had a solo dinner here and ordered the quinoa onion rings, the favorite bowl, and the liquid gold latte. Everything was tasty and generously portioned. I looked around at other dishes and thought they looked delicious as well. The noise level though... sheesh! It wasn't a problem when I arrived because it was still early and the place was almost empty. But it filled up fast and as the evening progressed, it got louder and louder and became unbearable, so much so that I decided against waiting around for the dessert menu and just asked for the check and left. It's definitely something to be mindful of if you're noise-sensitive.

Pros: good food, generous portions

Cons: noise level

Great Brunch

Loved the brunch options at Fresh! Their brunch menu is available on Saturday and Sunday from opening until 3 I believe. We tried the green burrito and the French toast. Both were amazing, but the French toast was next level!!!! Would definitely eat at Fresh again just for the French toast!

Used to be phenomenal, quality and portions have declined

Over the last 10 years all the Fresh locations have cut their portion sizes significantly while the prices remain the same. The food is also not made with the same care that it used to be, often being rushed to meet the demands of food delivery apps. It's hard to justify going here when there are numerous vegan restaurants down the street near Kensington Market or a couple blocks over at Bathurst & Spadina.

This location in particular is always noisy and high-traffic. Probably best to order for take out if you must eat here.

Pros: Easily accessible location

Cons: Small portions, Declined quality, Noisy inside

Can't go wrong

Great vegan place with amazing service and cute patio (added this summer). Ask for extra hot sauce, you won't regret it!

Varied Menu

So many wonderful vegan choices of varied cuisine. We always stop here (or one of the other locations) when we are in Toronto. The tacos & the bowls are especially delicious. The prices have gone up over the years, but the portions are good & we are always satisfied.

Pros: Varied cuisine, Tasty, healthful options, Nice staff

Cons: Crowded/loud at times

Slow Service, hit and miss menu

Fresh food comes at a price here and not just $. With everything closing, trying to support them more. They need to fine tune their operations. Could be a 5 star review.

Pros: Lots and lots to choose from, , Can customize most items, It’s fresh, most items are healthy too.

Cons: location can be hectic, service is way to slow., Trying to support them- it’s getting harder., Odd but 50/50 chance of me disliking meal here :(

Love the food, but the space is tiny

My favourite thing at Fresh are the quinoa onion rings. I get them every time! They also have the best hot sauce. I’ve tried many things on the menu, most of which I’ve really enjoyed. The restaurant is cramped though. You have to squeeze past other people’s tables to get to your seat. Not great if you have a stroller with you.

Amazing!

We visited Fresh with a group of friends and everyone left full and satisfied. I really love their diversity in the menu, I had the pitaya smoothie bowl and everyone else grabbed something off the brunch menu, it was all delicious! We all left with a fresh juice to go that quenched our thirst later that day, I recommend checking out this place.
