I got the Besties sandwich. Swapped out vegenaise for hummus and added vegan cheese. Very good! Also got their smoothie of the month which was only $2 and vegan!

While road tripping through Wisconsin recently, I decided to check out HappyCow instead of making my usual Starbucks stop in Janesville. I was surprised to find a natural foods store and cafe right off the interstate. This place is a gem! I had the Bestie panini (vegan bacon, spinach, tomato, and Veganaise), Fat Joe (bulletproof coffee), and Rise and Shine (carrot, apple, and ginger juice). They were all delicious. I travel through this area frequently and will definitely stop again.

Tammy is the sweetest! Our daughter always looks for her when we are shopping. The pumpkin scones are delicious. The cooler area sometimes has an eggless tofu salad , and vegan potato salad, both are good. I wish they would add a vegan sandwich to the cooler for a quick grab and go, they have vegetarian ones though. We also like the bestie vegan panini from the cafe, and our daughter loves their smoothies. They also have a plant swap, and a kids play area so us mama's can grab a coffee & pastry from the cafe & let the littles play

Loved everything about the cafe food wise and the tables. Also loved they had a little nook for kiddos to play. The only negative thing I would say is that they need to mop there floors? I put new clothes/socks on my 13 month old daughter and they were completely BLACK along with her hands from her crawling/walking on the floor and she smelled musty(like the floor hasn't been cleaned in god knows how long) so that is really nasty. I would definitely come again but maybe don't have your kiddos wear nice clothes??‍?

The staff was great. Got 2 good breakfast paninis that they made vegan and GF for us. Coffees were good too. Grocery tems were on the pricey side for non co-op members.
