Amazing food!! They do take long to make the food; worth the wait

They do take some time to make the food; but then again it’s vegan; and freshly made.

The food was okish

When I ordered delivery the box was sideways and it was scrambled together. Then when I ate it the waffles weren’t the best and I wasn’t a big fan of it but the sausages and the tofu scramble was pretty good.

Pros: Nice savory food, Yummy drinks

Cons: Bad packaging, Not the best waffles

Vegan Crepes!

I was so surprised by this place! Fully vegan menu, caring staff, and all tucked away in a little strip mall. I had the tropical crepe with all its fruity goodness and a side of sausages. The sausages were expensive for their tiny size, but they were just like typical sausage at a breakfast buffet, and there are some creature comforts from childhood that you do miss as a vegan. Love this place!

This could be my last meal

Absolutely amazing. The selection of cakes is incredible. Although not many gluten free options in terms of cake.. still amazing!! The grilled veggie wrap with tofu is absolutely the perfect amount of juicy, savory, and filling. 🥰

Good but nothing special

I got the huevos rancheros and a side of potatoes the rancheros were fine but definitely not the best tofu scramble i’ve had! Got a side of sour cream (which was an up charge) which added a little bit more to the dish, potatoes were fine as well

Also Kind of expensive for 1 person

Definitely enjoyable but nothing amazing

Affordable and Cute but Breakfast Could Use Some Work

Service was lovely! It’s a quaint cafe. Ordered the tofu scramble. The taste was slightly under mediocre for me, unfortunately, but it’s, also unfortunately, I would say about normal as far as vegan breakfasts at restaurants go.

Pros: Lots of options, Desserts, Affordable

Great little cafe

Went twice during our stay close by in LA. Like a classic diner but all vegan. Great breakfasts: tofu scramble, crepes etc and good range of salads, wraps etc. Cakes to take out also looked amazing.

Pros: All vegan, Tasty , Friendly staff

Cons: Not much atmosphere, A little out of the way

Yummy but pricy

I liked the orange chicken cauliflower accompanied by some healthy brown rice and broccoli. Quite pricy sadly!

fair

food, service and prices were decent. nothing was amazing, but i didn’t have any complaints either. i would go again if in the area. nothing special worth a long commute. they do have kombucha and a big selection of vegan desserts. the strawberry cheesecake was good.

Disappointing

The food was ok, but a bit disappointing. I was expecting something more "astonishing".

The service was slow and the price pretty expensive.

Pros: Good quality, organic food

Cons: Expensive, slow service, nothing astonishing

Breakfast @ The Grain Cafe

We went with a group of 5 to get breakfast at the grain cofe. It was great to see how many options you can oreder. The water tasted good, no chlorine. The coffee with soy milk was great too. They only had sweetened soy milk, so those who dont like sweet coffee should order black coffee or with almond milk. The food tasted good, but the portions were smaller compared to other diners. We disliked the long waiting time between ordering and serving the food.
Thank you for running a vegan restaurant! You are the future.

Pros: Many vegan and healthy options, Friendly people , Good coffee & tee

Cons: Small to mid sized plates, Not the fastest service for a group of 5 guests
