Visited glens falls for the first time and stopped by this restaurant. My husband and I were BLOWN AWAY with how spectacular the food we had was! We both ended up getting their Mac and cheese since we have not been able to find any Mac and cheese dishes which we find tasty. We were absolutely amazed at how amazing theirs was! We also tried a few of their donuts and were pleased with those as well. 10/10 would recommend. Unfortunately we live 3 hours away from this restaurant but may end up making the trip back at some point to eat here again! #Veganuary

Stopped by for half a dozen donuts and was very impressed! The donuts were delicious and adorably decorated for Halloween. I only have had their donuts.

The spinach artichoke dip is very tasty. However, I would think of it more as a spinach artichoke thick soup. Again very tasty. I am not into oil so the next time I would order the bread Not grilled. The turkey dinner sandwich is exactly what it says. All those great Thanksgiving flavors all of us. Liked the gravy. The sweet mesquite sandwich has a nice back heat to it. However I would get a little less jam next time because it was a little sweet for my taste. The place is right downtown which means you can get some true comfort to eat before you hit the craft beers which part a block away. This is true comfort food. However the staff is very nice and I'm sure you could ask for something to not have as much cheese or whatever you're trying to avoid.

Got take out on our way through. Incredible breakfast burrito and donut. Lots of options, friendly service, great spot!

We were greeted by friendly staff and had a hard time choosing between all the amazing options. We ordered fried pickles and cauliflower bites with bang bang sauce as apps. The food was so fresh and tasty we had to order more to bring home. We also brought home a dozen beautiful, creative, and delicious donuts. The only negative is it's too far from our hometown!

So happy to find a completely vegan restaurant. We've been traveling for over a week and tired of struggling to find something to eat. We both had the breakfast burrito. I had the fried potatoes with it and my husband had the hash browns. We recommend the fried potatoes, made fresh. The hash browns were more like a fast food option. Good if that's what you're looking for. The bakery items change often and are all iced. I'm not a fan of icing, but my donut (apple pie) was fabulous. If they had to put something on it, I would have preferred a little cinnamon and sugar or nothing at all. It didn't need it. There were many choices and they all sounded good. Lots of seasonal pumpkin options. Gave it 4 stars because of the icing and the food itself was good, nicely seasoned, but a little too greasy for my taste. We cook with no oil or minimal oil, I know that's difficult in a commercial setting. All in all, I would highly recommend.

They have the best donuts. The gluten-free donuts are also amazing. The regular donuts are also really good to.

The great yelp reviews originally brought me here so I feel compelled to share about my less than great experience. Arrived at 7 to an empty restaurant and choose to dine in with my husband. Only four or five (gluten)chocolate frosted Boston Creme donuts left but with the way that dessert case was frosted with handprints and residue, we passed on it. Disappointed, didn't say anything and hoped the food would be better. The greeter now our server offered a GF menu but it was confusing (hand drawn black and red stars next to items with items crossed out?) Hungry from our adventurous day and the lack of vegan foods in the area, we ordered the cauli bites (buffalo) with ranch and a sample chipotle sauce. I chose the GF chicken parm with fries and my husband got the Italian sausage with onion rings. Stopped at the bathroom. Overly Glade scented but there are worse things. Turned for hot water, no water came and with one pump, the metal head of the soap bottle fell to the floor. I poured some soap out and washed my hands and then arranged the broken bits from the soap bottle on a tissue? It obviously needed to be replaced but they seemed content with having an broken soap dispenser. Whatever, who needs soap? Walked over to my seat past the kitchen and 2 red onion slices were on the floor. Whatever, things get messy. Few steps, noticeable dirt and debris on the floor. Whatever, what the customer doesn't know doesn't hurt I guess. Sat down, low key extremely annoyed but with cauli bites and app plates on my table. Two other families entered, seemed happy and were being helped by the same server. I look down to eat and have a chipped plate with two black pieces of char on it. My husband switches plates with me. I covered his plate with a napkin and ate out of the app plate. With our restrictive diet and lack of options for GF and vegan approaching 8 o'clock, we tried the bites and they were delish. The bites had a good crunch from the batter, heat and acidity without being too much or on the sour side. The ranch was well seasoned and paired better with the bites but the chipotle sauce which was the same size as the included sauce was good for a spice loving person so I kept it for my fries. We completely finished the bites and had tissues on our app plates. Automatic cue for the server, right? I politely asked if she wouldn't mind taking these. Food: My fries were overly battered and the all the bits of weird shaped batter were plated it for me. Potatoes were just barely cooked, translucent, and unsalted. The potato based chicken parm sandwich was soo small and tasted more like fish than anything soo that's what I told myself as I forced it down. Really hoping there are better vegan alternatives in the neighborhood the next time we visit!

We were staying in Saratoga Springs and found this eatery while googling vegan food. For the most part I follow a pretty strict healthy plant base diet but when we are traveling I like to treat myself. Birch bark did not disappoint! I had the Caesar salad and my husband had the loaded Mac & cheese. Both meals were delicious. I had a fabulous raspberry lemonade that was so good I took it back to the hotel with me. We got donuts to go and they are SO good, don't leave the place without having one!! I also bought some reusable straws that come in a pouch, I always forget to take mine places so these are really go to come in handy. Service was wonderful and the place was clean, cute and roomy.

We were in town visiting for our anniversary, and decided to stop in for lunch. If nothing else, the tower of onion rings is worth the price of admission - the absolute best onion rings we've ever had. I had a black bean bacn chzzz burger with lettuce, tomato, sweet onion jam, and BBQ, and my wife had the buffalo chikkn Mac and cheese. Both were delicious, although the Mac and chzzz was a little spicier than we anticipated. We will be recommending to family and friends, and we will be visiting again when next in town.

Best donuts I’ve ever had.No compromises.Stomach issues “prevent” me from eating anything fun: cookies, cake, breads, donuts. You name it.Except for this place.For some reason their donuts don’t give me any problem. Except for now I can eat as many donuts as I want.
