Counter Culture Vero

Has moved, actual address is 3225 Cardinal Drive, Vero Beach. The vegan pastries are phenomenal, and the lunch was so good. Would five 5 stars if I could! #Veganuary

Had an absolutely incredible experience at the new beachside location today!! The menu is fresh and new and let me tell you, DELICIOUS! There are normal options and plant-based options. As a vegan in Vero, it’s difficult to find quality meals that make me want to go back and that blow my mind.

The white veggie pizza we got was made plant-based and the cheese/ricotta really tricked me I had to ask the chef if it was really dairy-free. The taste was on par with real mozzarella and I can’t get over it. They put so much thought into the recipe for this and I appreciate it so much. From now on this is the only way I’m eating pizza.

Second favorite was the mexican flatbread, the southwestern herbed hummus with all of the fresh ingredients had me dancing in my seat while I was eating. This would probably be a nice dish after walking along the beach because it is just so refreshing and not super heavy. Incredible.

Also pictured are the chicken and waffle dish along with the sodbuster sammie (added plant-based chicken) which were also amazing.

My partner and I made the best decision today by visiting Counter Culture (again it’s the new BEACHSIDE location near Casey’s and Chelsea’s on Cardinal). Thank you to the chefs and staff that made our experience one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Vero (born and raised here). They made it feel like home and every dish was made with such care and love.

Incredible vegan options and deserts too. It’s in a tennis club area - makes perfect sense to eat a healthy nutritious meal in an athletic field. You do not need to be a member of the tennis group to eat here. Great atmosphere, super friendly and helpful staff, kind and patient. I have eaten here a couple times and a friend has come by many times whom recommended this restaurant to me. Was a great option after a day of kayaking. Recommend stopping by if you’re in the area - but also worth the drive to visit!!

Excellent food, a must visit

The owners treat you like family and have been vegan chefs for many many years. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The food is always delicious. You can bring your non-vegan friends who can eat off of the non-vegan side of the, menu. But once they are there, they usually choose the vegan side. They have plenty of delicious, vegan foods that they make from scratch. I love sitting outside under the shaded overhang and watching people play tennis even though I have never been into tennis. I just love the chill vibe.

Best vegan burger in town! AMAZING!!

Vegetarian options: Amazing flavors & options!!!

Dietary restrictions: WFPB for health reasons. They offer great options!!

We throughly enjoyed our visit to Counter Culture. The food was excellent. We did one regular pizza and one veggie with cauliflower crust. Both were delicious! I had the BLT and potato salad-one of, if not the best I’ve had. My husband ate the vegan BLT and loved it. The kids had smoothies and pizza and enjoyed it all. We will definitely be back!

Friends brought us here and we had no idea what to expect so it turned out to be a total surprise of the best kind. Who would ever think such a creative vegan menu would be available at a tennis club in Florida? The edamame dumplings were so good we ordered a second. The samosa burger was fantastic, salads, and even non vegan chicken panini. The owners are lovely: friendly and engaging. Such good food, so perfectly prepared. I sure wish this type of food were available back in my home town.

Counter Culture Vero is far more than a delicious award winning restaurant. Lisa is educating, inspiring and healing people with this restaurant and her menu.Amazing variety of healthy, whole food centric dishes that highlight the simple essence of great ingredients. Gluten Free and Vegan options abound with creative flair.If you want to improve your well being, care about nutrition or just simply want to feel better this is the restaurant for you.

This is the only restaurant in vero beach that has a vegan menu though as a vegan I was thoroughly disappointed. The environment was very preppy as it is at a tennis club. As a vegan I highly value fresh healthy food to fight disease… this food was subpar. The vegan cheese is daiya which we all know is full of chemicals, not nut cheese by any sense of the manner. The tomato in the salad had brown spots on it indicating expired produce. They didn’t have the Arnold Palmer tea and expected me to be perfectly fine with green tea which was watered down though they supposedly refunded it. The service was lackadaisical. The bill was expensive… $50 for pizza, salad and tea with a 4% credit card fee. Tables were dirty. Most disappointing part of the experience was the quality of the food especially as a vegan.

Parking: Limited number of parking spots.

The owners opened an hour early to cook for us. The food was incredible and the staff so friendly and kind. They were enthusiastic about sharing their food and even sent out free apps to try. 11/10 experience!
