• Great Vegan Comfort Food

It is so amazing to see how popular vegan eating has become; being completely packed after only being open 2 weeks is crazy. Since they do not currently take reservations we arrived at 5:15pm (they open at 5) and got the last available table. Being a small place with approx 30 seats made for a packed house. The seats we were left with were right beside the door, the curtain that was hung in front of the door did help break the wind but with people constantly coming in (and being added to the ever growing wait list and sent away) it made for a very cold supper. We started with the Bread and Preserves which for $14 was slightly underwhelming. Everything had good flavour but the portions were very, very small. I had the Lentil and Ale Pie which came with coleslaw and a salad of bitter greens. Everything was delicious, the pie is huge and the salads are very simple yet tasty. My husband had the BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich and fries, portions again were great, the sandwich was amazing and the fries taste like the fries from Swiss Chalet aka awesome. We “chose” the Bread Pudding for desert (there is only one option for dessert) and were not disappointed. It was simple and yummy and perfect for sharing. For drinks I tried the West Ave Cider which was just ok, but had to order a Pommies Cider because it’s my favourite. Considering the restaurant was slammed from the time the opened the doors the wait staff was amazing, they were fast, efficient and very friendly. All of the food came out in good time and everything was put together well and tasted great. Overall I would definitely recommend checking this place out…if you can get in!
