Love Clover! Their breakfast is quite solid, I miss when they served Tender pork in their bowls though. Their drinks are also always interesting and tasty.

Clover is super fast and easy to order from, this location is no exception and conveniently located too where there aren’t already many vegetarian/vegan places. I do wish this location was open a bit later, but a lot of restaurants in Inman seem to close early, so perhaps an area-specific thing. I’ve never had a bad meal at Clover - all the vegan options have been great, and I appreciate that they change up the menu based on local, seasonal ingredients. My go-to is the chickpea fritter, the current lemonade flavor, and the rosemary fries. Just make sure you eat the fries right away, they’re wonderful but they do get dry!

I really love this spot. They prepare food and orders FAST. They have extra little things I need like bags of coffee, cute stuff, canned drinks. The food is really fantastic and understated and a real treat. I am a longtime Clover lover and I just went today and loved it so much I felt compelled to put it in a review :)

Its expensive for what it is, however the food is always good. the chickpea fritter and bowl are a stable and is great every time. If you sign up for their rewards program you get free fries as well so definitely take advantage of that.

I hadn’t been to clover in a while and just came here for lunch and picked up two bowls. The summer celebration bowl (zucchini and corn) was very bland and soggy and didn’t come with any protein. It came with a single tomato and some pretty inedible zucchini. The Mediterranean bowl was okay (not sure how it’s different from a chickpea fritter platter?) but smaller and ended up being more expensive than a similar bowl from Cava, which has many more options. The man checking me out asked if I wanted bread and I said sure but didn’t mention it would be an up charge which is a real pet peeve of mine (especially since bread is free at most cast casual places). The whole meal came out to $30 for what was a pretty disappointing and not filling experience.

Food is getting ever pricier and now they close 20 minutes before their listed hours, so what's the point of even going?

I love this place, the staff is so great and the food and drinks are amazing. They have breakfast sandwiches, lunch bowls, soup, coffee and tea. Sometimes the store has samples too which are sooo yummy. I believe everything is vegetarian.

Clover simply refuses to be vegan friendly, all these years later. I hoped that by now they would at least have clear menu labeling, but I just had two employees tell me something could be made vegan when it’s buttermilk battered and has honey in the sauce. The fact that I’ve been eating the same chickpea fritter here for 7 years is sad. It’s unclear for vegans what’s safe and what’s not. The food can be good, but it’s disappointing every time I come here to see they’re still stuck in their ways.

Too expensive and the bread tastes like dust. I prefer Felipe's Mexican or the new Achilitos in Harvard Square, or Life Alive in Central Square for taste and price. Not surprised that they're going out of business and filed for Ch 11. Clover, Sweetgreen and places of this sort are just a waste of money.

I really like Clover’s food and was always happy with their service but today we weren’t that lucky. We ordered ahead of time for pickup but by the time we arrived the door was locked. Staff members were inside but they ignored us. After a few minutes of waiting a staff member signaled us that they were closed. Why was the ordering system accepting orders then? Why did nobody put up a sign telling customers that they were closed? Also, why was the phone line disconnected? (We tried to call to find out what’s going on) The order was cancelled after over an hour but overall this was disappointing and a waste of time. It’ll probably be a while before we give them another try.
