It can be difficult finding a vegan/dairy free diner but this place is wonderful! Friendly service and the vegan pancakes are amazing! We enjoyed it so much we came back twice in two weeks.

Just discovered this place last spring, and I love it. Everyone who works there is friendly and the food is delicious (with plenty of vegetarian options).
Service is always on point.

One of the most chill places with ALL of the vegan/vegetarian options. We felt very welcome the entire visit and everything my wife and I ate/drank was delicious. The house chai is amazing! Highly recommend this place. The only suggestion, gimme more of them aliens and flying saucers in the decor. 😉👽🛸🖤
Dietary restrictions: They have all of the vegetarian/vegan options! Vegetarian was a part of the entire menu and not just down in one small section in the bottom corner of the menu.

Lots of vegan options! Making items vegan does add a bit of a cost, though. The staff was nice and coffee was good.

The menu has clearly marked vegan options and there’s many dishes that can be made vegan. Pancakes, vegan bacon, egg, sour cream, and cheese. They also has vegan pastries. Definitely recommend!
Got the vegan short stack for brunch and loved it! It has a diner feel, with friendly staff, good music and amazing food! They refilled my coffee twice and it was really nice to sit and work there. They only take cash, but it's worth it.

This and old school no-frills breakfast diner extraordinar. The menu is simple, but classic and filled with choices of side's, breads, and style of eggs. There is something for everyone, whether vegan or omnivore, young or old, whatever you get will be delicious. My favorite is the Bagel of Champions, with an everything bagel, vegan cheese, and a side of vegan bacon. My partner likes to order the breakfast sampler that is also fantastic. It is cash only, but they have an atm.

Very much so not kid friendly, they have a sign outside that says leave your strollers and segways outside, obviously reasonable, but that’s just the start. We went there super pumped for VEGAN breakfast options! So something we love. We brought our almost 4 year old, while I was up getting Cash from an ATM my partner was with our son, the waiter asked my son to take his shoes off, not my partner but my almost 4 year old. Cue the tears. But we rallied, and after my son cried for feeling like he was being scolded by some rando, we moved him from the bench because we figured the shoes were only not allowed on the bench, an un cushioned bench… so later he puts his foot on the chair to get grab his food, the waiter runs over says to my son, “take your shoes off”. So I said “I’ll ask him to”. Then he and I took our shoes off.
While it seems simple it was just ridiculous. Like you’re driving us away by 1) not being kind about the ask 2) what a bizarre request. The chairs were already tattered and ripped and the bench was nothing special.
I understand wanting to keep things nice, but put a sign up, make everyone take their shoes off (unsanitary). Anyway vegan options were great.
