Oscar the owner is very friendly and funny and his pastries are delicious. Also love the tres leches cups, super flavorful and reminds me of my pre-vegan tres leches love. A bit out of the way but well worth the trek to
Amazing place, Oreo cake and Tres Leches taste great. Will definitely be coming back regularly.

This is a great spot. Delicious vegan goodies, including sweet baked goods as well as some savory options, and the owner is always so kind to his customers. It feels like a community here. They are dog friendly and don't mind if you bring your well behaved pup into the store.
I haven't been here in a while but need to come back! They even sell flour from a local miller who uses organic heirloom grain varieties. So unique.

Amazing find! Worth the drive. Been wanting to find/try a vegan bakery. Had seen this store come up when searching for options. Today made the drive there. So worth it!!! Choc Chip scone is delicious; good texture, plenty of chips and excellent tasting. Also purchased cinnamon roll. After heating, just incredible! Frosting super delish, dough was great. Anxious to go back, would like to try cupcakes, empanadas and pie. Store is super cute!!! Also, the owner/manager was at an event, not at store today. However, family member there (Mom I think). What a sweet, kind, friendly professional “filler in”. Service is everything!

I turned 30 and since I have a milk allergy I thought this place would be a good choice. I am sad to say the strawberry cake was not good and neither was the sliced cake that I got that was grape and vanilla flavored. I'm sorry but it was a bit too doughy and the consistency of the cake and frosting was not good. The service was good though. Nice people. The strawberries that were placed on top looked old. The design of the cake was very pretty but the taste was the most important thing. I couldn't even take a second bite. I feel like it wasn't worth $45 and a 38 mins drive.

Very friendly staff! However, I would likely not go out of my way to visit again. My partner and I split one savory and two sweet baked goods. Nothing was very memorable, and everything was a bit bland and a bit dry. Maybe we got the wrong items? Or maybe I've just been spoiled by too many amazing European bakeries I've been to.
Healthy and delicious!
Great and always changing options staff was the best, really great I would go here often if I didn't live out of state

Delicious, totally vegan food made by the nicest people you could ever meet. My partner and I loved the whole experience. The food was so fresh and yummy, and my partner said the tacos were perfect! Truly the sweetest staff too! Stop in here -- you won't regret it!

This is a hidden gem in highland park! They have wonderful vegan lunches like "tuna" salad. Fresh Sourdough & of course scones! Yum. If there are any empanadas... buy one or 4 if you have boys who are teenagers. You'll thank me later?
Vegetarian options: There's vegan "salads" like vegan tuna & vegan chicken
