The location on Flatbush and Church staff are extremely rude and unprofessional the two young ladies on Tuesday 07/01/2025 working the store were dismissive and seemed annoyed. Didn’t want to answer simple questions regarding the juice or snack I inquired about. Made my juice with one glove her and touched the apples with the ungloved hand. Wanted to cater to I guess was a regular and attempted to rush me along. When I asked for a bag the young lady sucked her teeth. Will not be visiting this location again. Been a long time customer on the location on Malcom X yet this location staff is in much need of proper training in kindness.

I have enjoyed the food at this establishment for the past few years, but the service continues to deteriorate. I might simply be a condition of getting too big or the inability to hire staff during the busiest times. My options are clear, make my breakfast at home, or find an establishment that is committed to the time of its customers.

A hidden vegan gem in Brooklyn!
This place specializes in vegan Jamaican food and it was great.
I got the vegan curry chicken with a tropical smoothie. The curry sauce was incredible. It was well spiced but not spicy. I loved the potatoes and veggies that were in the dish. I got the plate below in the picture for $12 which I thought was a good value.
The staff was super friendly. They let us try free samples of their food before we ordered and was helpful to answer questions for my vegan needs.
The service was extremely quick. We ordered our food and it was ready within 5-10 minutes.
If you’re a vegan needing food in Brooklyn, I’d definitely recommend this spot.

AWESOME spot for vegetarian/mostly vegan Jamaican food. (They do have a few menu items with fish that are clearly labeled.) Their slogan is "there is no guilt in our pleasure," and I believe this is accurate! They serve a variety of food, from comforting dishes (like lasagna and mac and cheese) to straight up health food (like acai bowls and ginger shots), and everything seems high quality and free of excess oil and salt. They have a great lineup of baked goods. I tried the banana bread and the pumpkin bread and loved both, especially the oats and walnuts they were topped with. I had to try the 7 grain porridge (they have a rotating porridge each day) and really enjoyed it; it was warm and spiced and just the right level of sweetness. One of my other favorite items was the 13 bean soup, with hearty potato and carrot chunks. I also enjoyed the veggie lasagna and the steamed callaloo. They were also super welcoming and helpful in answering my questions about the menu. I would definitely return here for a meal next time I'm in the area, and I hope to try their other locations.

This is the first vegetarian place that I have ever been to. The food is yummy. My favorite are the patties . My absolutely favorite patty is the jerk plantain . It is tasty . It's the best sweet and spicy that is needed. The crust is flaky and fresh . I tried two smoothies from here : the sea moss and the peanut power punch . It's a must try . You will really dive into your food and wonder where did it all go when you're finished devouring it.

Just bought a citrus ribs panini and a Kale Mary shake. Apparently what they advertised on the menu not every chef that works there know how to make the food. The panini was rushed made & looked NOTHING like what I’m used to ordering. The citrus ribs was not even like citrus ribs, it was stale and tough, Totally wasted my money. Owner, please show your chef how to prepare the food properly, it isn’t cheap. Let consumers enjoy what they spend their money on.

A complete gem in Flatbush. A must especially after the gym. Btw. Try their patties
The first day git a acai bowl... there was 4 options only 2 were avail.
I ordered one and it was orange.... deff not acai regardless it was tasty
Now I went back yesterday ri get a acai bowl....
I swear it was just granola and bananas....
I coulda swore there should have been blueberries and strawberries, raspberries added... But there was none
Something was telling me to go across the street but i didn't listen.
Oh and acai was bland asf....
I was so disappointed. But hey it Is what it Is.
Btw the smoothies here are amazing
The patty I ordered was very soggy in the middle....
Glad pumpkin wasn't sour... and fyi if you aint know theses places do not make patties from scratch
They use the same company for patties as a distributor. My rant is over.
Oh wait one more thing the girl at the counter FORGOT my pattie I had to remind her to give it to me... and si ce we here... I hate places with 0 accountability for proper lines and employees that don't pay proper attention to what's going on. AND!!!! WHEN YOU TRY TO CALL and there's no answer so you gotta inevitably deal woth people trying to skip you....
I love this place bit I have to be honest and transparent about what happened

Today was my last time visiting Church Ave location.
I ordered the Jerk Chicken Panini, a LEGENDARY sandwich & my absolute favorite which was absolutely not JCP Ive gotten from the Malcom X Blvd location.
Beyond that service was horrible. Get new staff immediately. No one told me my sandwich was ready or asked if I was dining in.

A friend recently introduced me to Natural Blend and that's how the story began. Our first visit was on a Saturday and 2 days later I was paying a second visit for more natural goodness! Is it possible for the Beyond Burger ? to reshape vegetarian goodness and take it to a whole new level? Drumroll, please!! The answer is positively Yesss! It's a hearty burger sandwiched between 2 behemoth mega-buns; it's a crowd-pleaser! I recommend a slice or 2 of the Pumpkin Loaf, it pairs well with a hot cup of tea. The Lemon Snack Cake is calling my attention and will be my cake of choice on my next visit. ? A shout-out goes to the staff at Natural Blend they're kind, welcoming and provide great service. ??
Vegetarian options: There is a great variety of vegetarian options to select from.
I enjoy the food here but the amount of single use plastic being used is just not right. For people dining in, there should be reusable dish/cutlery options. Also, instead of hard plastic takeaway containers, please consider switching to compostable options. We are truly destroying our planet this way!
