First time in Poughkeepsie, saw the good reviews. Dead On! We had the Baja, Red Fox and Steak and Corn wraps. Were perfect. Good size, tasty with even distributing of all ingredients. They asked if my Corn and Black Bean side had a problem. No, just couldn't finish it all... Excellent stop!

Brussel sprout salad is AMAZING!!! The flavors fit so well together and is very fresh. Will definitely be returning!

I love to get their black bean burgers with peanut noodles! I also get the peanut noodles separately if I’m going to see my daughter, who loves them too. Went to the New Paltz shop recently for the first time and was very impressed. Wish the Pok place had more seating available.

Great vibe, busy, and very friendly staff. Food is freshly prepared on-site and was delicious. My party of 4 ladies had a huge salad, wraps, panninis. All great.

I visit both Lola’s locations. As someone who is allergic to both gluten and cow dairy, they can always accommodate me. My current favorites are the BLAT sandwich on GF bread and the South Beach salad without the feta. The quality of their menu is consistently excellent. I have never been disappointed. I recommend them to anyone who asks!

Entirely separate vegan menu with multiple options. Very good food!

The food was great. I had the Thai peanut noodle dish and it was phenomenal! I will definitely be adding this place as a go to next time. Enjoyed it so much. My only regret was them not having chop sticks for the Thai dish which is a very minor grievance lol. Other than that great food and atmosphere. Great place to go if you are going to eat out with other people who are not vegan or even just as try alone option. Can’t wait to go back. 😄

The food was really good! They don’t offer a ton of vegan options as far as sandwiches go, but we had two of them (the blackberry & blackened tofu sandwich and the Thai tofu wrap) and they were delicious!! What I mean is quantity doesn’t matter when the quality is so good 😋

Delicious food at a reasonable price with great service! We got the tofu and blackberry panini and the short rib grilled cheese. Both were creative sandwiches that tasted really good, with toasty bread and tofu and beef that were just the right texture! The tofu was smooth and not crumbly. It’s blackened and definitely quite spicy. The short rib was braised or stewed, making it tender and flavorful. I appreciated the unique options of peanut noodles or salad as a complimentary side, and the peanut noodles and black bean and corn salad were both great. We’ve went here while visiting the Hudson Valley Rail Trail a couple times and I really recommend it (and the adjacent pizza place) as a lunch spot right off the trail. It’s a pretty small place with some good seats (including a small window-facing table), but it might be hard to find seating during busy times. Overall I was really impressed by the high quality of Lola’s Cafe and their menu of familiar dishes with a creative twist. I highly recommend visiting!
Dietary restrictions: There is a vegan menu and a gluten-free menu.
Outstanding service, the woman at the counter was so personable. Ingredients are super fresh with generous portions. Really nice, busy room. Definitely a new fave!

Must eat if you’re in the area. awesome food choices, and all the five dishes we ordered each of them was better than the other Spicy peanut bowl was my favorite.
Vegetarian options: All the bowls are vegetarians and you can add protein if required.
We stopped in after Walk On the Hudson and enjoyed our time here. It’s conveniently under the bridge, the food was great, drinks were great and the service was very good. I love the esthetics, every thing was color coordinated nicely. Staff was friendly. Will definitely return ??

The “Asian Chiccken Salad” with the blackened tofus subbed in is terrific: crisp fresh ingredients and a good amount of food. The black bean burger also wins, flavorful and substantial. Tomato soup is great too. Cute spot, clean, friendly staff.
