The food was delicious. The portions are a good size. They have a variety of desserts too. The service was friendly and I didn’t wait long for my order. You can dine in with more than enough space to eat. They have lots of windows if you like to have a view while you eat. I recommend trying it and I will visit again to try other items.

A Fantastic Find for Vegans!
While passing through town, I did a quick search for vegan options and am so happy I found this place! The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were very generous.
I ordered the vegetable plate, which had a delicious mix of cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, and red rice. I like that they were willing to minimize the tofu and add more veggies. I also got the mashed potatoes and gravy, which were absolutely delicious. The coleslaw was also quite good—it wasn’t a traditional flavor, and while the vinegar was a little strong for my taste, it was still very enjoyable.
I am so thrilled I stopped here and I would definitely come back again. Highly recommend this restaurant for vegans!

I grew up in a very hippy/vegan friendly area in the 70’s. This place is a real throwback to the cause. Very good classic, simple vegan takes on comfort food. I got the BBQ curls sandwich. Loved it. Didn’t love the Mac and cheese, but that’s a tough one to hit. My gf got the Hulk Hogie. She thought it could have used a lot more mayo, but she loved the beans and could have eaten 3x more. We got the banana cream cake. 11/10 for a vegan cake. We appreciate what they’re doing for the community, too. Go visit them, they rock. So hard.

Delicious food! Super crispy patties on the sandwiches – excellent 5 spice sauce; vegan ranch is the bomb. Mashed potatoes and gravy was exquisite and a huge portion. So full and in a happy food coma afterwards – super recommend! Support this small local business

It was a nice surprise to find this place. We had ribs plate to go. Served with mash potatoes and gravy, Mac & chz and green collars. Everything was VERY good!! They also had soft serve, we added peanut butter sauce; omg thank you! Also the bbq cauliflower wings were excellent! Neat place with many dessert options, drinks and everything VEGAN

Highly recommend! We had no idea this restaurant was near the Capitol building. We were traveling from the airport in Seattle to the Quinault rainforest and saw that this was the only all vegan restaurant on our way there. Wow did this impress. The food was amazing. Potato balls and Mac n cheese are a must try. My husband loved the bbq sauce on his sandwich and the cauliflower wings were delicious. Plus, we got to see the capitol building and people enacting their democratic right to protest, which was a wonderful added bonus to our day!

I’d have been a little disappointed, but the cauli wings carried everything else. Would go back, but would have to try other things.
Buff cauli wings: 10/10
Ranch: 8/10
Seitan ribs: 6/10 – good seitan, terrible sauce.
Greens: 6/10
Mash: 6/10
Mac: 5/10
Dip sando: 5/10 – too bitter

Absolutely loved the rib platter and my husband really enjoyed the Buffalo chicken sandwich meal. The service was quick and the atmosphere is nice. The mashed potatoes and gravy are to die for. The menu is fully vegan and everything we’ve tried so far has been great.

My sandwich was way, way too goopy. It also cost 19 dollars with a side of beans. Mac n cheese is good here. You can buy beer here if that’s your thing too.
I can’t help but be reminded about how everyone complains about high prices in Oly, yet line up for 19 dollar mid sandwiches.
The sandwich was super oily and smothered in all kinds of wetness. By the time I got to the last 1/3rd of the sandwich it was a soggy mess. Was not very appetizing.
Also they gave me to go boxes even though I asked to dine in. No plate for my daughter, she had to eat her Mac and cheese out of a little cup. Not sure if I’ll be back even though I want to support this spot that does so much for the community. Just too rich for my blood for lunch.

The best mashed potatoes I’ve ever had. Oh my goodness, I got the The Dip and mashed potatoes and gravy and I was in heaven I went for my birthday, and would you know, they had birthday cake in their sweets selection! The cake was absolutely amazing. This is my favorite vegan restaurant in Olympia.
