This was the most depressing food I’ve eaten in NYC so far. It’s cool if you eat for health and not taste, I tried to get through the food I got but ended up throwing the majority of it away. I tried the orange chicken bowl, the crunchy peanut salad, and the spinach ricotta scone. The scone smelled great at first but the texture tasted over-mixed, chewy, and dried out in the wrong way. Also no real flavor from either ingredient it was named after. The orange chicken bowl had a sauce that tasted like a vinaigrette, it said it could be eaten hot or cold so I tried warming it up…would not recommend as it doesn’t cook the crunchy cabbage. The only thing I ate the most of was the salad bowl because the peanut sauce was decent, but nothing special. It tasted like the peanut sauce you get with spring rolls from the grocery store. I truly hope I just ordered on an off night, or that there are better options on the menu and I chose the wrong ones. But I could not earnestly give a high rating as I paid a lot of money for a lot of food that was wasted and left hungry.

I ordered the ‘Sesame Tahini Cookie’ and the ‘Lemon Blueberry Muffin’. I’m so fond of the texture of both of these products! I enjoyed the lemon blueberry muffin because I don’t know the last time there was actual fruit in one I’ve ordered elsewhere! I’m happy to have found a vegan version of my favourite breakfast item ^~^ I always order sesame flavoured versions of desserts, I really enjoy them. I used to live by a Japanese Supermarket and a Korean Supermarket with stalls inside for bakeries. The flavour was a nice toasted nuttiness. I really loved the texture, reminding me of between a soft sugar cookie and a shortbread cookie! AGAIN this cookie blew me away texture wise! The flavour works well for a cookie, I can’t wait to have another.

I needed a quick & nourishing lunch to bring on the train and the crunch veggie peanut salad was the perfect choice! There were plenty of tasty looking options in the grab & go case and I’m already excited to go back for more. The salad I got was so plentiful that I crunched & munched for 30 mins, and genuinely flavorful & interesting — everything was a reasonable price and I could have even shared it with another person (or saved leftovers). 10/10 recommend giving this delish spot a try!

Such a delicious vegan spot! I got the mushroom sausage and it was out-of-this-works amazing! It was very filling as well, so that was my lunch for the day. The food is prepared and boxed in the fridge, so it’s an easy grab-and-go! Highly recommend and will go again!

Best for classically vegan dishes like smoothies and entrees that highlight veggies. The customer service is warm and welcoming and attracts similar diners. You’ll find other health conscious diners that come into Electric Beets seeking to fuel up on food that isn’t made from mystery ingredients. My favorite part is that everything is labeled so you know what you’re eating/drinking. Be sure to pick up one of their smoothies, they’re amazing!

Was genuinely so impressed with the food, the service, and even the quality of the to go containers and well labeled ingredients. The photos do not do the food justice. Absolutely loved the crunchy peanut salad, how light the tofu was, the cold noodles, i could honestly go on! 100000/10 would recommend as an easy grab and go.

Cute vegan grab and go spot with many options and wide menu. They have everything from burritos/wraps to soups, desserts (brownies, pudding) to chia pudding and energy bites.
We shared the maple kissed tofu, buffalo wrap, and spring rolls. I really liked the maple kissed tofu but my partner thought it was just fine. The flavor is subtle but I enjoyed that and they are conscious of cooking with less oil, less additives, low salt, etc, which I really liked. The buffalo wrap was a big let down. It’s not that it was bad but it wasn’t buffalo. It’s their own house sauce, which is fine, but it doesn’t resemble buffalo so the name makes no sense. It was disappointing because we were expecting something very different. It was otherwise fine. If we went back probably would skip and try something else. The spring rolls were also fine. Not the best we’ve had, not the worst. The peanut sauce it came with was very good.
Overall, very cool that this place exists. We loved the art and graphics on the wall, were so happy with the friendly service and the samples of the DELICIOUS soups (next time we would probably get a soup) were awesome.
There are only a couple of seats by the window inside (mostly grab and go) but we were able to sit and have a quick lunch. It was raining so couldn’t sit outside but they also have a couple of tables outside.
Wonderful spot with some really tasty options! Their baked goods are particular lol fun.

I try to pick up food from here every time I visit my sister in Park Slope! I feel magnetically drawn to it. Everything I’ve tried is great. Perfect for a picnic in Prospect Park.

I loved the neighborhood and convenience of this cute friendly place. Black bean soup!! Cookies and takeaway deliciousness.
