The folks in that kitchen know how to actually cook with vegetables, and it really shows. You won't find any tired Impossible burgers or pasta marinara on this menu. It's all creative, fun, homemade veg food made by people who clearly put some thought into what they're serving.
My first impression was with the Brussels sprout Caesar salad that came out with the romaine leaves arranged like a giant Brussels sprout, and it was undoubtedly one of the best-tasting salads I've ever eaten. I had the Laksa Tomato Sandwich as my entree, which truly blew my mind. Tomatoes and bread have no business being so delicious, but it nearly brought tears to my eyes. I'm still not quite sure what they did to make a tomato sandwich so mesmerizing, but I will probably be thinking about that sandwich until tomato season returns next summer. My husband had the cauliflower K-Boy Tacos, which were excellent. We did end up getting the vegan budino for dessert despite being very full...but it was worth it...and was insanely rich and huge. I can die happy now.
At the end of the day, this place is the bees knees for sure. Sitting outside is blissful and ALL the menu is meatless and most of it is vegan (or veganizable). I cannot wait to go back because...yes...vegans, we actually could eat here every single day for WEEKS and not repeat a dish.

Love this local gem! Just a quick bike ride along the river, Dharma Bums has a great dog-friendly courtyard and an a decent menu with quite a few vegan options. The K-Boy Tacos are a must. Chill vibes and perfect setting for a meal with your pup.

Friends brought us here after we visited the awesome and kitschy Vampa, a vampire museum. The food servings were generous and flavorful. The cocktails were unique and delicious. Highly recommend, majority of the dishes are vegan.

It's wonderful when a place, like Dharma Bums Restaurant Bar, gets all the elements right – friendly, personable service, creative delicious vegan food - ginger dressing on salad was delish, total yum fig tacos & Thai street fries were so tasty we finished the large bowl of them. Plus, we lucked out being there on Open Mike Night (Wednesdays). We enjoyed listening to entertaining local talent which added to a memorable evening.

We had a delicious meal on Friday and our server Ben was excellent - super friendly and his recommendationto get K-lote as a starter was spot on!. We wanted to try everything but of course we couldn't so we'll be back!

Really enjoyed my visit here for lunch! I had wanted to go for a while because of the good reviews and mostly all vegan menu and I’m so glad I went! The atmosphere was really cool, with the pub vibe inside and the beautiful outside area too. The staff were all wonderful too! We tried the Thai street fries and two different tacos. The fries were some of the best I’ve ever had and it was a great amount. The tacos were also delicious with fresh and unique ingredients. I appreciated how much detail went into the presentation and the choice of ingredients. Definitely will be returning to try more of the vegan menu items!

Had a great time however when I was offered the house drink "jungle juice" I went into a complete Emporium. It was a great time from what I remember but the next thing you know, I woke up in back atrium in the morning with no clothes or recollection. I'm taking my wife next time!
Stopped by this morning for coffee in the upstairs room. Lovely service and excellent coffee. They had a wide range of coffee drinks and each was made to perfection. The upstairs space had a gray vibe with lots of mud century and a mix of 60 furniture. Looking forward to coming back and trying the restaurant.

Great bar, will definitely visit again. The bar area has a great feel, upstairs was perfect for the band and dancing and the outside made the night for us. Beautiful weather, fireplace, no problem hearing the band. Nice people too!

I found Dharma Bums through their amazing Summer Sundays craft events for kids and loved it SO MUCH that we had our daughter's 6th birthday party there. It was beyond fantastic and exceeded all of my expectations. Fiona is amazing with children and truly creative - the crafts and decor that she put together for us was so beautiful. The kids AND adults had a great time! Service was exceptional, the food was delicious, and the vibe/energy that they have created in this iconic old building is just so great. I can't recommend Dharma Bums enough. Go now!
