$5?!?! I would have paid so much more - Edit
The absolute best place I’ve had lunch in America, an amazing animal sanctuary surrounded by beautiful red rock.
Read moreThe food is all vegan, there’s plenty of it, it tastes great, it’s only $5 and you’re supporting animals.
If that doesn’t get you to eat here I don’t know what will!

GO VISIT! - Edit
Can’t recommend this place high enough! The buffet lunch was only $5?! Really they should charge more.
Read moreThe menu changes every day, I had faux fish and chips with peas, salad bar and a slice of cake (FOR $5?!)
If you have time I also check out a tour and leave a donation to the animal sanctuary! If I wasn’t visiting from England I would have absolutely adopted the dog that was sitting in the reception 🥰
Pros: VEGAN BUFFET, Animal sanctuary, Take a tour!

Favorite spot in the world! - Edit
You won't find a more beautiful view AND the best $5 vegan lunch anywhere else in the world! We've been volunteering annually for the past 9 years at BFAS and selfishly the cafe is one of our favorite parts of being there. The food is delicious!

Simple but delicious - Edit
It's tucked away near the headquarters and mostly a canteen for their staff. You can eat for $5. I didn't think the food looked all that good but man was it yummy! And you can't beat the view over the Kanab Canyon.

All vegan all the time - Edit
This is easily the best vegan restaurants I've been to. The menu is different every day and it's always very good plus there is a salad bar. It's set up buffet style and you can eat there or take it to go. Your pet is welcome on the porch.

Delicious! - Edit
The buffet was wonderful! Lots of options. Loved the black beans with onions and chilies. The corn chowder was delicious. The salad bar had a nice selection of veggies. There was dessert, too! The menu changes every day. Kitchen staff was willing to share recipes, too!

Awesome meal and deal - Edit
For $5, we got a huge serving of delicious mac & cheese, sides of three-bean salad and roasted brussels sprouts, salad with choice of dressing, fruit, hot drinks, and dessert (rice crispy treats!). Wha??? Wish this was near me, I’d eat there every day! Easy socially distant seating inside or outside with beautiful views over the canyon.
Read moreIt is part of the Best Friends sanctuary. We volunteered there that morning, toured it that afternoon, and stayed at their hotel (the Roadhouse) in town.
Pros: 100% vegan, Inexpensive and tasty, Rotating menu

Amazing! - Edit
$5 for all you can eat- even during Covid they have everything boxed and they will still accommodate you anything you’d like. The option for lunch was not gluten free, when I told them, they made me my own pumpkin chili. They have salads, desserts, everything. It’s all delicious and at a price you can’t beat!
Read morePros: Lots of options, Accommodating and friendly , So cheap!

Vegan Utopia - Edit
It's hard to believe a place like this actually exist. On the grounds of the Best Friends animal sanctuary, the Angel Village Cafe offers a full vegan buffet equipped with a ever changing carousel of main courses, fresh salad bar, a coffee bar and multiple dessert trays. The cafe is perched above Angel Canyon and sports a breathtaking view. All this for the measley price of $5! This is a must stop destination whenever you are in the vicinity.

$5 Fully Vegan Buffet (with GF options) - Edit
When I found the Angel Village Cafe at @bestfriendsanimalsociety I knew that was where we had to get lunch. An all-vegan cafe with a buffet and salad bar for just $5 per person! 🤗 They also have gluten free options available each day, and I was told that I could request a baked potato if there weren’t enough options. The staff was super helpful letting me know which items contained gluten so that I could avoid them. Besides the amazing food, the other reason to visit the Angel Village Cafe is the amazing view. 😯 We chose to eat out on the porch with some other visitors, staff, and volunteers. Looking out onto the canyon while you eat is something else. I think it’s the best view we’ve ever had at a meal. Plus, it’s the perfect spot to stop in when you’re on property visiting the animals, volunteering, or just driving through.
Read morePros: $5 Vegan buffet, GFoptions&staff offered baked potato if not enough, great view
Cons: limited buffet with no full menu

10/10 atmosphere and $5 AYCE - Edit
While I couldn't be sure how many people were vegan it was quite moving to eat a vegan lunch with a room full of undeniable pet lovers!! We ate there on a Thursday which is a day they have presentations over lunch and there were many teary eyes over some of the stories and videos! The food was amazing, as were the views.

So impressed! - Edit
We stopped by Angel Village Cafe after a morning at Zion National Park. It's a buffet and the menu changes every day. It's only five dollars but because the profits keep the animal sanctuary going we gave an extra ten dollar donation too. Everyday they have a huge salad bar with lots of yummy veggies and even vegan ranch dressing. They were also serving pizza and spaghetti on the day we were there. For dessert we had apple pie and brownies. It's an incredible deal for all of the food you get, the views are amazing, and the food delicious too. If you are on the fence about visiting, I'd say GO! :)

GREAT vegan at a GREAT place! - Edit
A highlight of my recent vacay was a stop at Best Friends Animal Society. Unbeknownst to me, there is an incredible lunch buffet AND food truck that offers really delicious and creative vegan fare. This is an awesome place that does awesome things for animals - both in caring for them for life AND in not eating them. Highly recommend both the food and the tour.

Great Inexpensive Buffet - Edit

Take advantage of the all you can eat salad bar that includes every topping you could hope for. Main dishes always have a vegan option, you may just have to ask.

Can't beat the price! - Edit
High quality fresh food for $5! If you're driving by between 11:30 and 1:00 it's worth stopping in to eat. It was my lucky day and everything was vegan, including the soup and dessert. The potato bar had vegan cheese too.

Wonderful view, wonderful place! - Edit
$5 for a vegetarian buffet is pretty great and its at the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary...the biggest and best Animal Sanctuary in the country. The staff is awesome and each day showed me the vegan options...including the homemade salad dressings. If vegan items aren't on the buffet, they are set aside in the kitchen. I've been 5 times now and my favorite items were the vegan quiche and vegan potato salad. They were some of the best vegan dishes I've ever had.
Read morePros: They "hook vegans up" - quote from staff member., Breathtaking view of Angel Canyon, Thursday meeting about animals and adoptions.

Great place to eat while visiting - Edit
Great place to eat while you're visiting or volunteering at Best Friends. They have a huge salad bar and various vegetarian lunch items. I asked the kitchen staff about vegan options and they brought me into the kitchen so I could get some vegan quiche (which they didn't have out for everyone). The food was good and cheap!
Read moreThey only take cash though, so be prepared!
Pros: Cheap, Convenient , Good food
Cons: Cash only, No vegan desserts
