• A well-kept secret for downtown vegans.

My only complaint about Chamblin's Uptown Cafe is their terrible marketing. I have lost count of the number of local vegans who have no idea that this little cafe has many great options for them. The fare is light and simple, the prices are low, the coffee is strong, and the iced teas really hit the spot on a hot Florida afternoon. They have several vegan options and will happily alter items on the menu to suit your diet since they prepare the food as it is ordered. The seating area is small, and it can be very crowded at lunch. Don't be afraid to sit at a table with a future friend if they have an open seat! One of the best features is the the book store attached: Chamblain's Bookmine (in Ortega) is legendary for having an enormous collection of used books, and many of the very best items have made their way to "Uptown". Buy a great used book and enjoy the first few chapters while eating a delicious vegan wrap.
