What a cute little cafe! We originally went in for herbs but was greeted by such kind faces we tried everything. The service is amazing and the food is great - and I’m not vegan! Highly recommend, we’ll be back 💞

I got half a wrap (tikka masala + lentil) and a side (cheesy noodles). I don't leave reviews often but it was so tasty and filling, I couldn't not say something. This place deserves more traffic!

This gem is located inside of a larger herbal apothecary … good vibes and great products all around. Leslie is super loving to her customers and prepares all food with love and light. Health conscious meals that cater to vegan etc. Cheesy Mac is off da chain! And the pesto … amazing! They even do events like coloring parties. If you want food prepared with love in a surrounding environment that could elevate your whole life this is the spot for you.

Such a tasty spot! They have a rotating vegan menu with delicious options. Their new location is spacious and has free parking and they're paired with a great tea and herb shop too! The owner really cares about visitors and I've been a happy customer for over a decade! I wish I could eat at DRK every day!

I went in right before closing hours. Ordered the smorgasbord to try everything. I enjoyed the Mac and potato’s since it had the most flavor. It was a 25$ dish, plus added a wrap. Most items were a little bland especially for the price and everything is a cold dish. Trying to support local but I recommend uprooted kitchen for a healthy vegan option instead. They do serve a different menu daily which is awesome! Updated from previous review on 2025-08-20

I am always daydreaming about the perfect vegan cafe and I finally found it! super friendly owner, quaint, beautiful outdoor seating, great prices, super healthy vegan food with lots of glutenfree options, and lots of actual fresh VEGGIE dishes (sometimes this is actually rare in vegan places), great flavors, high vibes, the most amazing chocolate parfait that had us swooning with yum bliss after. I had a variety of dishes and did not even feel like I needed a digestive enzyme after. it was THAT healthy and made with love. (similar to Morning Glory Cafe in Flagstaff in that way) it made me so happy and I plan to return whenever I head that way again.
