"Dying of Thirst"   My Rating
1 abrah	Posted on: Thursday, January 07, 2010
	Review: So, I am sitting at All Saints as I type this and I have to agree with most of the reviews that I've read thus far. This is maybe my third time here and every time I'm here, I get the "I am too cool for you" vibe from the baristas that goes beyond the usual barista arrogance. The young hipster man behind the counter, although thankfully not sporting a greasy mustache, had an abject look and a seemingly blank or too cool for you personality. I had not realized that it was cool to dress like Jason Priestly from 90210 again. But, that's cool. Apparently, it's even too cool for me and I am DAMN cool. Whatever. So, I wanted a piece of cake but they only had red velvet and I know that the red from the velvet didn't come from beets. I wonder if their food coloring is vegan. I thought about getting their chickpea curry masala but I just figured that it would leave me longing for incredible chickpea curry made with friends over a few bottles of wine. Anyway, since I was only getting a cafe americano, I paid cash. I only had change. Cafe Depresso or Jason Priestly behind the counter seemed pretty turned off by me and my quarters. I saw a stack of styrofoam cups and let him know that I'd be drinking in. He gave me my cafe americano in a styrofoam cup, no lid. I asked why he didn't give me a MUG and he explained that he just always served in the styro. I then asked for a water cup and he told me that it would be $. 50. For the water or for the cup? Wait a minute! I just wanted a mug full of coffee and a glass of water from the sink. I will assume that Cafe Depresso was just tired from being up all night writing poetry or listening to a friend going through crisis. Maybe he's worked three shifts in a row and is still short on rent. The charm of an "indy" coffee shop. I have to disagree with one of the reviews that I read on the charm of an independent coffee house being more in the personal touch that it put into every facet of your experience. The hand of the artist or creator if you will in the comfort and satisfaction of your visit. It is not in leaving you dehyrated and feeling like maybe you are just not cool enough for a college coffee house off of a major thoroughfare. I think that they need to revamp their attitude and take pride in their customer service. Again, maybe I caught them on an off day. I've been to a lot of coffee shops in a lot of towns and their arrogance and lack of willingness to give me some water is lame.   Pros: Spacious * Cumin * Color Cons: uncomfortable chairs * seriously rude baristas * pretty stars

"Delicious black bean/sweet potato burrito"   My Rating
6 RunVeg	Posted on: Thursday, December 31, 2009
	Review: We were stuck in Perry, FL (awful!) for research, and we were DESPERATE for some vegan goods. I can only eat Subway for so long. So, we found All Saints Cafe and made the 45 minute drive. I don't know if the food is really that good, but after days without real sustenance, it was MANNA. I had the sweet potato/black bean burrito (YUM!), my boyfriend had the BBQ tofu, kale, and mashed potatoes. We both agreed that my homemade BBQ sauce was a little better, and the serving could have been a bit larger. However, both dishes were 5 bucks or under. For pre-made, refrigerated food, it was awesome. We bought 2 more of the burritos to take with us for lunch the next day. Also, we ended up buying 3 of the chocolate chip cookies--definitely the best vegan chocolate chip cookies that I've purchased from a store/restaurant! They are crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and awesome. They also had vegan ice cream, but we were too full on cookies to try it. We didn't have any of the coffee, however there were a ton of flavored syrups for coffee and Italian sodas. We both had tea. We definitely didn't feel cool enough to hang out! We're from Indiana, and we were basking in the warm Florida weather with shorts and no jacket, and all the cool artsy kids were wearing more clothes than I wear in the 30 degree weather back home! :) Oh well, they let us have our dog with us outside at the table! It was a cool place, and the food was definitely better than anything I've seen in a coffee shop. I'd recommend it simply for the burrito.   Pros: delish burrito * outside seating * awesome cookie! Cons: I'm not cool enough * smoking allowed in outside seating *

"Not so worth it"   My Rating
2 TW	Posted on: Saturday, June 27, 2009
	Review: The food like mac n cheese and tofu wrap were just okay. The mac n cheese wasn't cheesey at all and had an overpowering herby taste. I also left it in the car, in a cooler, for 5 minutes and it stunk up the entire car. But... if you're having a vegan cookie craving this place has the BEST vegan chocolate chip cookies i've ever tried!!! So so good! crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, the cookies saved the review. The atmosphere is of "Too cool for you artsy students" so i felt like i wasn't cool enough to be there.   Pros: EXCELLENT COOKIES * Open 24/7 * Live music Cons: nasty food * icky food *

"Great Atmosphere, No-So-Stellar Coffee"   My Rating
2 gothicveggie2321	Posted on: Saturday, October 25, 2008
	Review: I was just introduced to All Saints last week and bought a blended ice mocha. I loved the big room with the dark ceiling and stars and the area where bands could play, but wasn't thrilled with the coffee itself. It was more like a slushie than a blended coffee, and for some reason it tasted more like green tea than coffee.   Pros: interior * * Cons: coffee * *

"love this place"   My Rating
14 supervegan	Posted on: Wednesday, October 31, 2007
	Review: All Saints is a great place to hang out or study. Yeah, the baristas can be sassy, but that's part of the fun about an indie coffee shop. The employees are actually allowed to have personality instead of a "company image." Since they built a kitchen and started cooking all-vegan food, there is usually at least a couple different things to choose from. However, all of their food is prepackaged and there is not a cook on duty at all times. There are times when there is no food or very little to choose from, so keep that in mind. When they have vegan desserts, they're really good. Oh, and one of my favorite parts about All Saints: They don't charge extra for soymilk!   Pros: funky atmosphere * interesting people * fresh-roasted coffee Cons: some desserts non-vegan * *

"Average Joe"   My Rating
1 veeguns	Posted on: Thursday, August 16, 2007
	Review: Okay, All Saints is ok. Vegan brownie pretty good, but hardly a restaurant. It is a coffee shop, and their coffee isn't that great. Their biggest selling point to me is their wireless internet, but believe me, it hardly works. Once a week I can actually use it, the rest of the time, it's down. When I asked an employee, he said they didn't really care if it worked or not. Too bad, because I do.   Pros: wifi * * Cons: wifi * *

GUEST	Posted on: Monday, July 16, 2007
	Review: Often times All Saints is now stocked with a number of vegan dishes - vegan mac-n-cheese, lentils over brown rice, PB&J, hummus and hummus sandwiches, hot served soup of the day that's always vegan, etc. - not to mention they have the best vegan desserts in town!! Snickerdoodles, brownies, mocha frosting cupcakes, vegan rice crispie treats (that taste just like the omni equivalent), chocolate chip cookies, mint chocolate chip cookies, galore!!   Pros: * * Cons: * *
