Tried Maximum Zen for the first time today and had the ginger mint tea and a flatbread. Absolutely delicious! Hidden gem and one of the very few healthy places to grab a quick lunch!

Just discovered this place, the food was excellent! My friend is a dedicated vegan and he loved the options and the lions mane tacos were amazing. More so, the sausage rolls are a must!!!

WOW! My boyfriend has been fully vegan 6 years and he said this was the best vegan food he’s ever had (he’s picky, too)! I can also say this was hands down some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had. I loved the owner. She is Australian and had a special Australian dessert when we went. The food was So good, we ordered more to go after our lunch to have it later for dinner😂. We live 2 hours away, we had been hungry and decided to stop off of the highway. Very random detour to this best place ever. We definitely will be driving back (2 hours) to eat here again! I feel the owners energy has something to do with the way this food tastes, seriously.. you can tell it is made with love. Amazing atmosphere, nice owner, fantastic food!

Cafe shares the space with a yoga studio and has great vibes accordingly. I had a mushroom tart that was so buttery and rich, hard to believe it's vegan! All the dishes and desserts looked amazing, wish I'd had room for a raspberry cupcake, cause...they looked extra.

First off I just want to say thank you, thank you, thank you! You HAVE to try this place! Trust me!
I am the general manager at a local restaurant, one of our guests who had Father’s Day reservations, Their vegan granddaughter was celebrating her birthday on the same day, and she was wondering if we can create some kind of dessert with strawberries. At a previous workplace, I had a vegan guest who got their desserts from maximums zen, and spoke highly of them. Weekends are crazy for us, so I reached out to them the day before the cake was needed, Only to find out it was about an hour or so before they were to close! Most places would have quickly told you they’re closing, Not Donna. She simply told me to give her until between 5 PM and 5:30 PM and come pick it up! She stayed and made the cake and I came to find out after my boyfriend went to pick it up for me, that it was her son’s birthday that day and they had dinner plans! She Still offered to stay and make the cake! KUDOS to you, and I appreciate you more than words can say! Now let me talk about the product! I’ll start off by saying I did not expect this gluten-free and vegan cake to be very tasty! I mean it’s vegan and gluten free. Our guest’s granddaughter was so surprised and thrilled, she said it was the best cake she ever had! They had a large group at our brunch and all of them loved it! They offered me a slice, WOW am I glad I took it! BOY WAS I WRONG! It was AMAZING. Several of my staff members tried it as well! You have gained numerous new customers, oh, and my bartender will be calling you to get the same cake for his girlfriend’s birthday in a few weeks! My boyfriend and I cannot wait to stop up and try some of more of your delicious creations! Thank You again! Your customer service and your product are stellar! I wish you the best and I’m sure you will be wildly successful!
I'm not sure when the last time I had a meal that was just purely vegetarian was, but after lunch at Maximum Zen, I can certainly say I'll be trying to do so more often. The lion's mane tacos were incredible, I never knew a mushroom could taste like that. The smoothie was really great too.

I come here every Saturday as a treat to myself to indulge in some homemade farm to table vegan food, all prepared and served by the wonderful solo chef who certainly puts love and joy into every dish! I’ve been working my way through trying each vegan option, and they’ve all been great so far and the prices are very reasonable. The Lamington cakes are my favorite. There’s also a yoga studio inside the cafe that’s partitioned off by sliding barn doors if you’re interested in that. The atmosphere inside is very comfortable; with many houseplants, string lights, and music.
The veggie wrap was wonderful. Best I think I've ever had! The strawberry cake..... amazing! I am so glad I finally got to stop🤤❤️🍰

Our child has egg allergies, so I contacted Donna to order vegan cupcakes. It was his first ever cake - chocolate with white icing, fresh raspberries & whipped cream... He absolutely loves them!
