This food is stellar. The wings and pizza are to die for. If you are in a rush don’t bother. Eating in it takes 40mins min for food to come out (unless it is pizza slice-highly recommend), and take out an hour or more for pick up to be ready. Crazy times. Still a go to.

Vegan Pizza & wings, salad, good beer, pinball, good music and a VHS collection motif going on. This place gets top marks from me! The servers were great too, I felt right at home. Vegan metalheads, punks and film/sci fi geeks, this is your spot! Unless you have a wheat allergy then maybe not. Very wheat heavy menu, most of the veg meats are made in house from seitan. Great by me! I highly recommend the panzerotti (deep fried calzone, excellent!)

We went last Saturday for dinner and everything was PERFECTION. We got a Caesar Salad, a large pizza, onions rings and wings. I just wish I lived closer but it’s definitely worth the drive! I ll be back soon. The sauces were pretty outstanding. I have to admit, I am in love!

Hamilton has some INCREDIBLE vegan spots but this had me hootin’ and hollerin’ like an American at a rodeo. Rise above SLAPS. The pizza is on point and they have so many options and so many deals. I am high-key looking forward to trying the whole menu, and the wings GIVE YOU WINGS I swear oh my goodness me oh my step aside Red Bull you haven’t got anything on these wings, combine this with a lovely atmosphere and incredibly pleasant staff, you got the best spot in Hamilton, shout out to all vegan places in Hamilton tho you all go so hard. 10/10 spot to finish Art Crawl on!

I need to try their other menu items but I always end up getting the pizza instead because I crave it so much

Really innovative and delicious pizzas. The wings are great especially with the maple garlic sauce. Friendly service and immaculate nerd vibes inside especially the Star Trek cat pics. Great for a date!

Such a cool place to eat and chill at. The menu is awesome, you won't be disappointed no matter what you order (the mac and cheese is incredible, so is the pizza) and the drinks are really fun too! Love the touch of the pinball machines and the vhs decor throughout the restaurant. This is definitely in my top 5 best spots to eat in Hamilton. Even if you aren't vegan, you gotta try this spot asap.

Vegetarian options: This place is 100% vegan, no meat is used at all.

Left something to be desired. Was a little odd though, ordered a pizza and a large wing. We received a personal pizza despite there being two of us present to order and asking for some toppings to only be on 1/2. We certainly never asked or said “personal” so just miscommunication on both ends I assume. Shocked at the price though of said pizza, tiny for $19! As for the taste, the pizza lacked cheese, couldn’t tell if there was any on it. The dough was also disappointing, was tough and tasted cheap. Honestly, ate a slice and left the rest.
Wings were not bad but not great. Probably wouldn’t go back sadly, a little disappointed.

I've been vegan for almost a decade now and this place has the best vegan food ever! (I've had about half the menu by now and haven't been disappointed yet.)

This is also the only place I would ever bring a non-vegan person because I honestly don't think they would be able to tell the difference. Huge fan!
