The Dandylion is one of the cutest cafes ever! The vegan sandwich is AMAZING. It’s all house made ingredients & it’s delicious & nutritious. You have to try it. You can tell there’s a special community here. Also the vanilla matcha was yummy

great atmosphere and service. love the food, especially their cheese danish and caprese sandwich. my only critique is that the caprese sandwich doesn’t have any tomatoes. the workers there are all very friendly and welcoming.

One of the absolute best experiences we've had in a long time. Feeling immediately welcome, we were immediately mesmerized. The look and feel is incredibly inviting and lovely. Add that to the food that was out of this world, it's a veritable diamond in the rough! Also, all the local art is fantastic and for sale!

LOVE The Dandy Lion Cafe. Yummy food. Great vibes and atmosphere and super friendly folks. I also love that they have a sandwich that’s called ‘It’s Vegan’ ? I always make it a point to stop in when I’m in Ashland.

I absolutely LOVE The Dandy Lion on Main!!! The pastries are delicious!!! Each pastry I have tried so far is amazing!! My two favorite sandwiches are the Caprese and the Shroom n Swiss. I usually ask for added bacon on either sandwich and it only makes the sandwich that much better. I love the atmosphere and I feel so welcome and safe, especially when I bring my young kids. I can’t say enough good things about Dandy, Caitlin, and the staff that works there. My kids and I look forward to our visits on Fridays as often as we can go!!
Huge Flags of BLM and LGBQT+ nearly block the entrance to the place. Sometimes people want to enjoy a coffee and meal free of political diatribe sponsored by owners.

Often it’s the case that affirmation and open acceptance is used as a schtick for lukewarm service and meh food. NOT the case at this gem; come for the glorious coffee and bespoke yums. Comfortable and joyful, don’t miss this wondrous location. We’ll be back!

Love it!
Excellent food made from fresh ingredients, many of which are created on site.
The Lavender Lemonade and Lionade were absolutely delicious.
The Fruit Parfait and Mushroom Grilled Cheese were amazing.
Comfortable seating and laid-back atmosphere as well as a small deck with picnic tables and umbrellas.
Games on the shelf to spend some quality time with friends.
Super nice staff.
Parking: A few spots nearby; additional parking on main street. Do not park in front of car wash.
Wheelchair accessibility: Questionable wheelchair accessibility because of long wooden board on sidewalk at entry. Might be worth a try though.
