amazingly good food

I brought my sister and mother here after a long day of shopping. All the food was amazing. I'm the only vegan in the group, but this is now on my sister's short list of must go-to restaurants in Lawrence. We shared the loaded nachos (they were good to the last bite... lots of toppings), and I had the Supreme Cali Tacos (oh, so good for crunchy tacos!). Sis and mom had the medley bowls and they raved about them. We also had dessert ... cheesecake and the silk pie cup - both delicious. If I didn't live in Houston, I'd eat here as much as I could.

Worth The 5,500 Mile Trip

Great food, especially the quesadilas. The lemonade is also delicious.

Really friendly and attentive staff too. Probably my favourite food of my whole trip. So worth it and I am very sad I have to wait so long to come back and eat there again.

Pros: Great food , Friendly staff, Good prices

Traveling as a vegan can be tough and it's so gratifying to be here for people from out of town who get the nice surprise to find us and have a good experience that was unexpected. Thanks for stopping in and trying us out and for sharing your positive experience here on Happy Cow! We appreciate it!

Really good

Absolutely love that Lawrence has a full vegan spot. Lot of really good things here. Honestly I hope this place collects some feedback from people because this place is just a few improvements away from being really really good. Very chill vibes staff was super friendly every time I’ve been. Will continue to support them as they grow!

Pros: All vegan!!, Chill, Friendly staff

Cons: Can be inconsistent , Some items on menu are a big miss

Affordable Vegan Food & Drinks!

Great food and unlike many other vegan restaurants this one is very affordable. It's a kind of a "hole in the wall" but they make up for it with their affordable prices and loads of food that they give you. It's great that Lawrence has an entirely vegan and vegetarian restaurant as there aren't many of those around this area. They had a ton of options on the menu. $6-10 per entree and it was a ton of food. I'm coming back soon to try the vegan cheesecake and possibly other sweets that were on the menu. I was so full last time that I couldn't have possibly ate cheesecake. Also they have $2 bud lights!! They also have other craft beers but we drank Bud Lights out of glasses it was great.

Updated from previous review on 2022-02-21

Pros: Affordable. , 100% Vegan, Has alcoholic beverages!

Cons: Located by Mass St so parking sucks., Waiter has to walk up & down stairs constantly

Archibowlschef

26 Jul 2022

A lot of people, especially vegans feel like it's not worth it to go out to eat because places are so expensive and it's just not worth it especially when the quality is so low. And frankly we agree that it's not worth it to go to places where most of the menu items are simply taken off of the Sysco truck or are hoity toity. and cost half a paycheck. It's a big deal to be a good value to people and an enjoyable experience to go out to eat, so thank you for your review and some verification that we are accomplishing that goal.

p.s. We tell the wait staff that they can save on a gym membership by working here and running those stairs a hundred times during busy times! It's tough but we love every minute of it! :)

Awesome vegan spot

One of the best meals I’ve had in a while. My non-vegan companion also loved their meal! We both had bowls and shared an appetizer.

Pros: Excellent food, Friendly staff, Reasonably priced

Cons: Uses plastic dishware

Best Vegan Place in Town

…Even if it’s the only one.
Had the medley bowl, black bean and corn salad, and brownie. Loved the sauce on the bowl. The brownie was one of the best I’ve ever had, vegan or not. Such gooey goodness.
Update: Had the California tofu tacos. The flavor was great; fairly spicy. The tortillas basically disintegrated in my hand. Had to eat them with a fork, basically.

Updated from previous review on 2021-10-15

Pros: 100% vegan, Everything was delicious

Archibowlschef

26 Jul 2022

Yes we are the only all vegan place but that's still high praise and we appreciate it! Not sure if you enjoyed those tacos but it's been a while so maybe on taco tuesday you can try them for only 2 bucks each😄

Definitely glad you enjoyed the other items! Thanks for the feedback and apologies for the slow response!

Delicious ❣️ Yummy, filling, large portion bowls. Kind COVID safe service.

Owner recently converted, herself and restaurant to solely vegan after exposure to her vegan customers and catering at a rescue facility. Delicious cheesecake and brownie. Outdoor seating available. Just ½ block off busy Massachusetts Street.

Delicious vegan food!

I had the vegan tamale pie royale with green chili and it was fantastic! It so hard for me to find vegan, gluten-free food with no beans. I was ecstatic to find a place that meets all my dietary restrictions. I will definitely return when I visit Lawrence again!

Pros: Tons of vegan options, Gluten free options, Great food

Cons: A little warm upstairs

We will be adding more varieties of the tamale pies to our new menu which is coming very soon! Thank you and sorry for taking forever to respond to your feedback! We care a lot!

Unique

This is a unique place. Their staple is savory pies — what they call “Tamale Pies”. I had a vegan pie stuffed with white vegan chili and topped with an avocado sauce. It was very good — crust was buttery and delicious.

If I could give this place 5 stars I would, just because it’s cool that there’s a vegan savory pie place in the middle of Kansas.

They also have a bunch of vegan desserts — cookies, little brownie spoon cups, etc. I had a really good St. Patty’s Day sugar cookie.

Pros: Savory pies!, Vegan desserts , Nice people

Cons: Ambiance is a little lacking

Almost everything on the menu can be made vegan and they even have vegan desserts. The people were sooo friendly. Makes me wish I lived in Lawrence so I could eat here all the time. Try the vegan tamale pie royale - it’s amazing!!
