Early Bird Vegan

Couldn't find their Tempe Yelp page so PHX it is!Got a Too Good to Go bag and everything was so yummy. Got to try the:Cold brew: liked that it was unsweetened, great caffeine boost and enjoyed it!Pasta wrap thing: not sure what this was called but it was sooo flavorful - sealed the deal for us to come in and have a full meal sometime! Wouldn't know it's vegan.Lavender drip cake: I love cake scraps, don't let anything go to waste! I found the scraps a bit dry though, and the whipped cream was a bit too sweet for me. Down to try other desserts though.

Looking for a spot to eat after volunteering at SVDP and this spot was only 8mins away. So excited to find a vegan spot where I could actually eat a decent brunch! I'm so used to going to regular breakfast spots and only getting avocado toast, so this was a welcome surprise, especially on my birthday!The place is located on Broadway road in a small plaza, you'd miss it if you were just driving by. The inside is small with a few tables and bar stools and then 5 picnic tables out front. There are plenty of options for breakfast and lunch items to satisfy both cravings during brunch hours. Hubby (not vegan) ordered the Dr. J and the Lilac Cold Brew. He said the ehgg tastedike tofu (as it should), the sausage patty was seasoned and spiced well, the SW aioli was delicious, the Cheez sauce was tasty (and messy), the avocado, tomatoes, and arugula were all fresh. Overall he enjoyed it apart from it tasting like fake egg and sausage, but of course he would say that as a non-vegan! The coffee was a little too much lavender for his liking, but he wanted to branch out and try a different flavor. Enjoyed the meal and I appreciate him coming with me to a place I can actually eat for once!I ordered the Chickn Sandwich, the Chai Me Chai Me smoothie, and the lavender drip cake for dessert. The sandwich tasted like the real deal and the flavors complimented each other. It was a gooey delicious mess like having an egg sandwich where the yolk spills out. The smoothie was a good consistency and not overpowering chai flavor, and the cake was scrumptious! Sweet with a cream cheese style icing that was reminiscent of carrot cake. The cake itself was moist and not overly sweet (for my taste anyway, hubby thought it was too sweet).We sat outside in the sunshine and they brought the food to us after 15mins or so making everything fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful suggesting favorite items and even letting me taste the SW aioli since I don't like spice and they said it wasn't spicy. I was ready to have it be too spicy for my taste, but it was actually more like fry sauce and just seasoned rather than spicy.The prices may be a little high for just getting a sandwich (no breakfast sides), but you're paying for the quality ingredients and it's worth it. I would rather pay more and be able to eat everything on the menu than have to eat somewhere I can only eat sides or toast! I will check out Tempe location as it's closer to home for me. Don't drive by this spot, you won't be disappointed.

Such a happy camper! I've been trying to get here for months- the Phoenix location is closed on Mondays and they don't open till 9am there, but I just became aware of the Tempe location which IS open Mondays and opens at 7am (9am is not an early bird for the record) The Dr J sandwich was so good! Staff was friendly. 100% will be back.

Excellent vegan food. Very friendly staff who will go through the menu with you when you have questions. They are reasonably priced. I had some sort of iced mocha coffee which was really good and I can go on and on about the Mac and cheese. I'll be back for sure.

This is definitely one of my new faves! This place has good reviews for a reason. It's super cute and the food is amazing. They serve juices, smoothies, coffee, tons of pastries, and breakfast and lunch foods. And honestly, everything we ate was to die for. The portion sizes are awesome, the food is filling, and the prices are fair too. The only downside I could see to this place is that there is limited seating but that shouldn't be a deterrent. Also the service is top tier. This place should be on everyone's radar. Even if you are not vegan, you will enjoy it. Run don't walk!!

Ate at the Tempe location. Very friendly, large clean restaurant. The lavender cake is amazing. The Buffalo chicken sandwich was very good.

(Tempe Location)I went to the Tempe location never been to the one in Phoenix.I can't stop raving about the experience. The Vegan Shrimp and Sausage Grits were an absolute triumph, with flavors so authentic and rich, you'd never believe it's plant-based. Paired with a refreshingly crisp side of chopped watermelon, a soothing lilac latte, and a zesty ginger mocktail, the meal was nothing short of sensational.The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. Whether you're a committed vegan or just curious about trying something new, the place is a culinary destination you need to explore. Trust me, make a reservation for tomorrow, and prepare to be delighted. Five stars all the way!"

This was on my list but due to its location being too far from where I was staying I'd put it off for the next trip. When I heard that it was black woman owned I quickly fit it I to my schedule. Butter Cup Smoothie with Ashwagandha was delicious!Dr. J Sandwich, no chz, no tomatoes, extra aioli. Delicious! But they forgot my avocado. *insert sad face*The lavender cake and raspberry scone were both amazing. Moist, sweet, yummy, and left me wanting more. I tried one of the croissants but didn't enjoy that one. It wasn't as fresh or good as the other pastries. It's a small spot, but the menu is rather large. I'll certainly return to try more of her offerings.

My meal was delicious! Loved the ribs, they were well seasoned, and the Mac n cheez was really good too. Absolutely LOVE the Thai tea. It was a little sweeter than usual though. The ladies were really sweet and very helpful with the menu and what they have to offer. I sat outside to eat, it was such a nice day out. The tables are right next to the street, so be careful if you have little ones.

Krystal took our order and is one of the sweetest people I've met. The food is also incredible. I have been on a road trip to many different places and this was the best vegan spot I went to while on the road through multiple states. Truly a hidden gem for vegan food.
