Tasty Tempeh Ruben¡!¡! - Edit
Have to specify vegan, but the Tempeh Ruben is so good we are going back tomorrow too! They listed a vegan yam burrito, but was sold out. Unfortunately I will not know how good it is, because I'm not gonna order anything other than the Ruben!!!!

Get the vegan rueben - Edit
It seemed during Covid at least, there was only one vegan option on the menu which was the tempeh rueben. You need to ask for vegan mayo but it is possible to be made vegan. The thick cut tempeh was soooo delicious! Also, in the bakery case there was a vegan chocolate applesauce cake so we got a slice of that. Very moist and tasty!

YUM! - Edit
Really enjoyed this. Popped in for lunch and had the vegan tempeh reuben sandwich with sauerkraut 😋 I’ve been dreaming of the sandwich ever since! We spotted plenty of vegan cakes by the register also which I regret not trying!

Yum! - Edit
The golden potatoes with green goddess we’re AMAZING! The soup was divine! The deluxe oatmeal was devoured in moments by my 12yo who rated it “the best”! Seven year old had applesauce cake and gobbled the entire piece down (& it was a generous size)!

We might stay in the area to eat here again, so good.

Nice Worker Owned Co-op Bakery Cafe - Edit
There are limited gluten-free and vegan options on the menu, but I found what I was looking for--a filling, healthy, vegan meal. My meal was simple yet tasty. I really enjoyed the bustling (but not loud), friendly atmosphere. The cookie I had for dessert was fantastic. I believe it was called a cosmo. I love supporting co-ops! This is a warm and welcoming bakery/cafe where all can get a good meal in a relaxing atmosphere.
Read morePros: Welcoming vibe, Friendly service, Cooperatively-owned business

great! - Edit
Update: May 2018 and even better than before. We stop here every time we are in town and are more impressed with each stop. 2015: Finally a place to get vegan food in Astoria! Many options can be made vegan. Just ask. We were so impressed, we came back for lunch today.
Read morePros: many vegan options, everything was good. , next door to a good brewery

Lots of Vegan Baked Treats - Edit
Although mostly vegetarian breakfast and lunch they do have lots of delicious vegan baked treats. I did have have vegan option for the Ruben sandwich and it was delicious. My wife had the TLT ( tempeh, lettuce and tomato) and that was pretty good too.

limited - Edit
Only one piece of cake and one chocolate candy was vegan. Perhaps the offerings change often and we were there on an off day. At least the vegan items were labeled!

Got vegan cookies, bread, and chocolate meltaways - Edit
There was some signage to indicate ingredients and which items were vegan, and someone helped us for the signs we couldn't see well. They had four kinds of vegan chocolate meltaways (plain, walnut, almond, mint) and we tried walnut which was good. They had two kinds of vegan cookies and we tried sesame which was wonderful and just right not too sweet. They had another vegan treat called a nourishing bar, like a fresh granola bar with a nice layer of chocolate on top. Yum! Also got olive and whole wheat bread. None of the other pastries appeared to be vegan (all with butter or eggs) but we had our fill with the vegan selections. Note, it gets very crowded for lunch. We arrived there at 11am and there was a line out the door when we left.

Scorched by Dissapointment - Edit
Recently my wife daughter and I went to the coast and like most vegetarians/vegans plan out the trip to be sure there would be places to stop and eat. We stopped at the Blue Scorcher and though we found the staff to be friendly and attentive the food left much to be desired. My daughter and I both had soup which was very bland and very oily. My wife ordered one of the bowls that was nothing more than a bland very small portion of beans and rice. Although this place is exclusively vegetarian which is great the vegan options were miniscule with only one of the baked goods being vegan. This place might want to take a cue from Seat Pea Bakery in Portland that if you make the items vegan everybody can eat them and they are just if not more tasty! My advice, if you are going to the coast pack a lunch and let the sun do the scorchin.

Accommodating, tasty, great service! - Edit
What a cool little place. They could stand to expand their hours, but they accommodate when you go in a little late. Food was extremely tasty and selection was great. VERY friendly service; highly recommended!

happy to find vegetarian place - Edit
My husband and I located this place on your website and saw the ads in the insert from the Chinook Observer and wanted to try it. I was very pleased with the veggie burger and the green salad. My husband is not vegetarian, so he had grilled cheese, which he said was fine, but a little pricy. I will definately come back as soon as I can. Nice, easy atmosphere. The baked goods are like homemade.
Read morePros: healthy, good food, good location, good people
Cons: cheese sandwich pricy, too far from home

A nice cap on our day of Goonies sight seeing - Edit
The Blue Scorcher was an unexpected treat to come across in Astoria. My Sister, my brother, and I are vegans. Blue Scorcher was able to accomidate all three of us, and it was a great way to end our day trip there (visiting Goonies sites, haha!).

vegan oasis - Edit
GREAT pizzas, salads and beer. They will make anything vegan. Just ask!! Ask for the "romesco" sauce on your pizza or go with their fantastic maranara. We loved their salad - great greens, nuts and balsamic (but they also have fresh, vegan Green Goddess dressing they make here.) Vegan desserts and muffins (more on the summer but still a few in winter.) Fort George beer from the brewpub next door on tap!
Read morePros: inexpensive, vegan variety, great staff
