I’ve been going to goodbeet since they were heartbeet kitchen. They’re always been a little on the pricier side but I wanted to support a fully vegan business. As of a few weeks ago, they added fish and chicken to the menu and have tried to make numerous excuses to justify this choice. Not a vegan business, just a business selling overpriced plant based options.

Very disappointing choice to start serving chicken and fish. Clearly the owner does not have strong values or convictions.

I always tried to support this place even as prices went up and portions got smaller. The menu just got sadder and sadder. The tofu nuggets and the slutty brownie were great but I couldn't justify the price any longer. Adding meat to the menu made the decision to stop going here pretty easy. This place just wants the clean girl/eating aesthetic and, well, good luck with that.

Smells like chicken and fish in there now. We ended up not ordering it smelled so bad in there. We used to go there all the time. Order pizzas on friday. Tofu nuggets and vegan meatballs were pretty good. I wouldn't be able to enjoy my food knowing that animals were cooked nearby.

Sadly, this restaurant is no longer vegan (although this change has not been reflected on its website yet). Chicken and fish added to the menu as of 10/23/2025. See company's social media profiles.

I’ve eaten at Goodbeat three times, always hoping that each individual experience was an off day and not representative of what’s typical but have been disappointed each time. Staff is friendly but the food is…lackluster. Small portions for the price (BLT), smoothies that are basically juice, subbing white rice for brown without informing you, etc. I make an effort to support vegan businesses but this is not one I will try again.

Waited over 40 mins for pancakes that were raw in the middle and had big black pieces I’m guessing were from prior food on the grill. (Did not come with butter or syrup which I find weird they do not tell you this when you are ordering) Got it to go so did not notice this until I was about to eat it in my car. Also, these pancakes are not cheap by any means so to serve this to a customer is unacceptable. Will not be returning.

The food is always delicious. Haven't had anything bad there yet! They carry the best sourdough bread, GF and vegan,(which is hard to find) it holds its shape and does not taste GF! I have a ton of allergies and their menu being vegan and GF alleviates all my worries and stressors around food.

Excellent food! We stopped here on a road trip searching for vegetarian food and were very pleasantly surprised by the extensive menu, great service and generally positive and relaxed vibe. The tacos, smoothies, nachos and bowls that we ate were all 5/5. The staff was very friendly and gave us lots of details about the ingredients. We are planning to stop on the way back now :)

I got sweet potato wedges with dressing, salad with dressing and dessert.
The dessert was the best place 
Go for the Nachos!! They were delicious. Customer service was great! Meatballs were not a fan favorite of my group, to be honest. 😬

A must try restaurant! The vegan a.k.a. non-dairy cheese tastes amazing. The GF pizza (also non-dairy, no soy) is 🤌. The atmosphere is nice AND I just found out they do meal prep!

First time at Good Beat and I loved it! The place is super cute inside and has such a great vibe. There are so many healthy options—real healthy options, not the fake kind you see at a lot of places.
I got the golden milk latte and the avocado toast—both were absolutely delicious. You can tell everything is made with quality ingredients and care.
I’ll definitely be going back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for nourishing, feel-good food!

Really enjoyed our meal here at goodbeet! It’s always great to see a restaurant that is both vegan and GF. While I’m not GF, I can definitely appreciate the effort that goes into making a GF menu. Everything tasted great, and honestly it would’ve been hard to tell that anything we had was GF. The restaurant itself was very nice inside with a modern/earthy vibe. I didn’t get his name, but the guy who was working was very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu (he said he’d been there 7 years!). We tried the crispy potatoes, “meat” balls, a buffalo cauliflower taco, a sunflower seed taco, and the NJ tomato sandwich. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. At the end we also tried both the lemon and basil (sounds weird but it was yummy) ice cream and a s’more cookie. Overall, I would definitely recommend coming here and I hope to be back to try more of the menu! :)
