Normally I am a very picky eater, but I LOVED the food they serve here, it’s flavorful, and there are many vegan options, I liked the “Pretty in Pink” and the nachos, the restaurant was almost full, but the service was quick and amazing. Highly recommended.

Great vegan options, but not sure how they can get five stars, as they are NOT 100% vegan. That said, very happy that we found this eatery through Happycow. It is not located on a main street, although it is in the proximity of the main Aspen shopping area.
Looks like a lot of locals support it. A lot of walk-in business on a Thursday during “down season.” Many vegan options and they are all clearly marked.
We got the rueben and tuna melt. Both were delicious. Just enough food for two. Can sit inside or outside.
Only recommendation is that I would have more than one person behind the counter during busy hours and they should have a larger counter to put dirty dishes.

Pretty good spot for sure, especially in a resort town. Didn’t think the prices were the best, almost $20 for a very small sandwich and chips (which they were out of, and subbed with a bland little Caesar salad)
Matcha latte was watered down, and it looks like every drink they make only has a few sips worth in a cup overflowing with ice. Tempeh Reuben was decent, but I’d classify it as more of a burger with how thick the tempeh slabs were. Probably on me for being less familiar with tempeh, but Reubens usually have finely sliced proteins in ‘em holding down the sauerkraut and fixings.
Overall, nice to have a meat-free spot in Aspen!

Love this open air cafe. Great sunny patio to enjoy your meal and drinks. I ordered matcha tea which was unsweetened and very tasty, pumpkin bread, and the superfood salad. Expensive but worth it. The salad was huge however I do wish they would put the dressing on the side as it was a little much for my liking. Overall I would absolutely come back here to enjoy their smoothies, juices, and food.
Vegetarian options: Plenty of options for vegetarians.

Coffee was bland, cafe does NOT have syrups in establishment. No real sour cream either, only tofu sour cream? Food was not filling. Not recommended for someone looking for subsistence or flavor
Wheelchair accessibility: Must step down to enter establishment.

We came in and ordered lunch. After the whole order they said we had to take it to go. They were closing in 35 min. Really??!! We declined the order as we were traveling and ordered smoothies instead. They misplaced our ticket, and we waited for 30 minutes for 2 smoothies. Totally dysfunctional and will not be back.

Second time here love the food and the service. The women at front took our experience far and beyond. Aspen vistors can be really mean sometimes and they still have a happy face on them

Great smoothies and salads. Kinda chaotic atmosphere and brusque staff.
Fantastic food that's fresh and creative! It doesn't feel like the cheap version of food that ski towns are riddled with. People are friendly as well!

At 11:27 I walked up asked if they were serving breakfast. By the time I made it to the front of the line it was 11:32 and the same woman told me they are no longer serving breakfast. She never told me the time they switched. She didn’t even apologize and just said she wasn’t paying attention when she told me they were serving breakfast five minutes earlier. No exceptions. I still bought something but not a place that listens or cares when you ask them a question. The menus on the counter were still all breakfast and couldn’t find a lunch menu to even hand me. Poor all around service and food was irrelevant after that. My wife wanted breakfast.

Been there a few times for the vegan. It's decent. Seems their menu is getting smaller. Haven't been in lately. Nice patio and open air casual dinning. You order your food at a counter. So that's the kind of service it has. Nothing fancy. Usually half way filled restaurant. Not too many health food eaters in Aspen, oddly

Genuinely delicious vegan food options. Would be good anywhere, but it’s especially appreciated in a town like Aspen where good tasting, reasonably priced vegan options are hard to come by. The tempeh Reuben and superhero burrito with the homemade tofu sour cream were filling and so good.
