Additionally, you have to choose two sauces in order to place an order (even when requesting none). The sauces are simply not good. They are bland (for my taste) and lack any distinguishing flavor, so the waste is unfortunate and unneccesary. Every time I have ordered a bowl, I have not touched them after having a small taste. The sauces are consistent taste-wise. I have removed a star to reflect the discrepancies and the waste inherent with the sauce requirement.
I’ve dined here a couple times before, but oh my gosh…. I had the most divine meal for lunch!! Though I’m not much of a dine-in gal, I was hungry between appointments and decided to stop by. I am so glad I did! Though this place is not vegan, they do have an extensive vegan menu and clearly labeled vegan dishes on their menus (offering substitutions for several non-vegan apps/entrees).
I chose to be seated outside to feel warmth from the sun and ordered a decaf iced herbal tea (with soy milk) that had rose and some other herbs/spices that I can’t quite remember. For the main event, I ordered a “jackfruit soul bowl” from a stand-alone menu. I was able to add additional veggies featured in another bowl which was much appreciated.
I’m being 100% when I say that this bowl exceeded my expectations. I ordered additional sauces (add-on options) and did not use either; it didn’t need any extra boost of flavor! The service was friendly and I couldn’t have been happier with my decision to dine-in. If I had chosen to pre-order takeout online, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to even know of the soul bowl menu. I can only hope that the jackfruit soul bowl and veggie soul bowl become permanent fixtures on their menus.
All-in-all, I highly recommend the jackfruit soul bowl for take-out or dine-in (it also made for great leftovers)!
(Service has been consistently on the slower end, so it’s best to keep that in mind if you have prior obligations or somewhere to be).
You can tell they care about quality and freshness. Some items took a little longer, and honestly, that made me trust them more because it felt like the food was being prepared when it’s ordered—not sitting around pre-made. Everything looked clean, the display was organized, and the ingredients in the dishes matched that same “fresh and intentional” feel.
For food, I tried a vegan bagel dish (I’m not vegan, but I wanted to explore that side of the menu). They were upfront that they didn’t have sprouts that day, and they immediately offered several substitution options so I could still get something I’d enjoy. That kind of transparency and flexibility matters, especially if you have preferences or dietary needs.
The meal itself was exactly what I want when I’m eating out: clean, light, and satisfying. I ate a lot (multiple plates) and still felt good afterward—no heaviness, no drowsiness, no uncomfortable bloat. I left feeling energized and ready to keep my day going, which is rare for me after a full meal.
Their drink menu also deserves real credit. I ordered a drink that starts with an “H” (it’s listed right under the Matcha on their drink menu). I did it half-and-half, used honey as the sweetener, and asked for extra cream—and it was easily one of the best parts of the visit. If you’re trying to pick one thing to start with, I’d recommend that drink first.
Another thing I noticed: they seem to have a strong connection with the community. While I was there, I saw a good number of regulars coming in, and it felt like a place people genuinely return to—not just a one-time “social media spot.” That says a lot about consistency.
They also have another connected building next door, and the overall setup makes it feel like more than just a quick bite—it’s an experience. And I think they may have a points/rewards system (they asked for my phone number when I got my receipt), so if you come often, it may be worth asking about.
Bottom line: if you’re visiting Lancaster, this is a must-stop. Great atmosphere, fresh food, thoughtful service, and a menu with enough variety to satisfy both adventurous eaters and people who like to keep it simple. I’ll absolutely be back before I head home to Texas.
I got the new breakfast burrito with coconut chai dream w/oat milk.
The atmosphere is great, very cozy and I even saw an older lady crocheting. I will definitely be coming back and if your in town this is the spot to check out.
Stopped by for valentine’s day lunch, the place was busy but the food was worth the wait, and enjoyed my tea.
Service was friendly & helpful, place is clean and welcoming. There’s a coffee shop next door with an internal opening between them if some in your party would prefer coffee (haven’t tried it though).
