Harrison Street Cafe is one of the few restaurants that I can reliably order the special for and be blown away every time. I’ve been ordering their specials for the last few months and they’ve been exceptional (creative, stellar texture, popping flavors, and ideal portions). The Reuben, Luigi, Lil Luigi, gyro, and Who Dat stand tall as monolithic sandwiches.
I forgot to mention that their service can nearly instantly put an order together.

I love this place! I just wish they had more FOH staff to help their servers out.

I will dream of the breakfast tofu in the vegan burrito for the rest of my life.

Customer service was patient, kind, and welcoming. Vegan French toast is delicious. It's definitely like a vegetarian menu. It was frustrating that I ordered a hot dirty soy chai and it was cold. They offered to microwave it and it just wasn't pleasant at all.

Very flavorful & affordable! We ordered online & picked up Lunch, only downside for me would be I didn’t see anything to add some kind of side with our sandwiches.

This used to be my go to spot for a vegan gyro. Now it's just dry meat. I asked for onions and there were a few slivers in the final few bites.

Love the vibes the food and the playlist! Homestyle breakfast with lots of fully vegan and vegetarian (egg based) options, plus coffee and baked goods. Such a cool space too. Wish there were more unpretentious veg cafes like this.

I'll start by saying the flavor on the Luigi is top tier. It's a good vegan sub with one drawback, where's the slices??? One layer of slices is diabolical. I'm glad the pesto, arugula and other toppings were flavorful. That's the reason I'll be trying more on the menu but $15 (w/tip) for a mouthful of bread and veggies is crazy. I wasn't expecting a dagwood but 2 more layers would've put it on the get again list. First visit but won't be my last. Hopefully next menu item I try levels up.

Awesome vibe!! Really cool staff. Drinks and Food were delicious!!!!
This is my most favorite spot on all of campus to get coffee, get food, or just relax. The employees are some of the nicest people I’ve met, and they always take time to make sure your order is right and your food is good. The food is amazing in general, and they have a lot of options for being a smaller place. Their coffee and tea always taste great, and the one or two times I’ve had a problem (usually on my end with ordering), they have always helped me out. Great place, highly recommend :)

Really love the punk/leftist vibe of this place. Tons of vegan options. Food is solid and fairly priced.

Not exactly cozy, but definitely funky. Established coffee shop near VCU with exclusively vegetarian and vegan light food options. Coffee is good with all the additive options. There is limited seating, especially on the first floor, which may limit seating options for some people. Take-out is available. Parking is full-on jungle warfare.
