INSANELY GOOD! This is a spot you don't want to skip. We are from out of town and went 2 days in a row for the delicious vegan breakfast sandwiches, empanadas and OMG the beignets are mind-blowing!

We had breakfast here and it was amazing! Ordered the breakfast sandwich (homemade English muffins!), pancakes, loaded fries and beignets. Everything was 10/10!

Amazing spot. Took a detour on my travel to come here. Best detour ever. All fresh delicious ingredients prepared with love. A delightful place to eat and owners to meet.

Amazing chicken nuggets and burgers, you’d swear you’re eating meat. You can tell this place has a lot of tender love and care based on the decor, candles in the bathroom, etc. Can’t wait to come back the next time I’m passing through Kingston

If you're on a diet, don't go here- everything is amazing! We had the breakfast sandwich, the cheeseburger with fries, and the beignets! Everything is vegan and the owner/chef is SO friendly!
Vegetarian options: Vegetarians that are used to real cheese and eggs will be SO surprised by how yummy the breakfast sandwich is! I ended up buying a second one!
I came to this cafe because my brother is vegan, I am not. Although I am not vegan, the food was delicious!!! The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. The owner was very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this cafe.
Vegetarian options: Everything on the menu is vegan.
Kid-friendliness: The owner has great kid options.

You'll find the Secret Vegan Cafe in a small building adorned with mushrooms outside and within. The owner warmly greeted us and told my nieces to each grab a holiday gift bag with a toy and a small board game inside. She explained that the other person who worked there wasn't in today, but dispite this, our food arrived quickly. The cheeseburgers were amazing when paired with the huge variety of sauces that lined the counter, including chili mango and truffle. The fries were soft with just a little crispiness, which is preferred for me since I find that many restaurants overcook their fries. The empañadas were a little on the small side and slightly too crispy on the outside, but the cheesy inside and mushrooms made it all worth it, especially when dipped in the delicious sauces, and two are included. The smoothie was sweet and delicious. Not too thin and not so thick that I had trouble getting it through the compostable (but very usable) straw. I hadn't had a beignet before, but it was a pillowy treat so soft inside. The very friendly owner checked in with us several times and made sure everything was perfect. My only regret is that they were out of apple pie, explaining that they were usually called in ahead of time with the order. My tip: call your order in ahead of time so that they have some time to prepare it for you, especially if you want the pie. This is a small business so I'm sure it will help them. Also keep in mind that seating is limited to three small tables that each seat 2-3, so if you're with a large group then consider picking up your food rather than dining in.

The sweetest staff and some really solid food, vegan or otherwise. They flip a mean burger here and, in a world that often underdeliver on fries, Secret Vegan comes through with great crispy hot fries. Their breakfast sandwich is tasty and filling. Their salad is diverse and enjoyable. I wonder if they still have this great seaweed based burger I tried there once? Beignets are a fun treat and they do a mean hot cocoa. I recommend this place!

My spouse needed a pick me up after months of very virtuous and frugal eats at home, and we were passing by on our way to an appointment. I had passed the cute front of the shop a few times, but I wasn't able to make it when it was open.
I called ahead and checked to see if they were open, and it just happened that the owner was covering the kitchen. The menu is online, with breakfast, lunch and snacks listed, and we both enjoyed what we ordered. The owner was talking about their space and their choices for the restaurant, and was so charming.
We will come back with our kiddo, it's a great place for a family or a couple to stop in and eat abundantly without having to wonder if this really is vegan or has been cross contaminated by cooking on a grill barely scraped clean after a rasher of bacon. ?

Very friendly staff! The nuggets are a must have. And the burger is exceptional, as well. (Not just your everyday vegan burger.) All around great experience.
