It’s alright

Tons of vegan options. Im a bit plain and just ordered a pizza with basil. My boyfriend ordered the vegan buffalo chicken cheesesteak & said it was okay. The employees weren’t that friendly. They seemed annoyed at our existence.

Pros: Tons of options

Cons: Not friendly staff , Small space

Meh

I've tried so hard to like the food here, but I just don't. I appreciate that they have so many vegan options, but everything is so greasy and heavy. Maybe I'm just not used to eating this type of food bcuz I always end up feeling sick afterward.

Brunch was delicious

We went to this place for brunch. Everything we ordered was delicious. Service was good, our waitress was friendly and answered any question…
So many vegan options!
We ordered fried pickles, fried “mozzarella” sticks,
“Chicken” and waffles, and huevos rancheros. And a pitcher of mimosa.
Prices are also good!

We were there with friends who eat meat and they said their food was good too.
This is a great place where everyone can eat!

One major thing I didn’t like: 20% tip is automatically added to the bill. It’s not mentioned anywhere, so be aware of that when you tip.

Pros: Delicious food, Good service

Cons: 20% tip is automatically added to the bill.

Nice tavern atmosphere, except no AC! It was boiling hot in there. Plenty of vegan options and the chicken Caesar wrap was good, as were the fries.

Pros: Nice vibe, Good location, Good food

Cons: No air conditioning! , Small menu , Slow service

Best Vegan Pizza in Philly

I’ve been to many of different establishments that people have dubbed the best, but hands down Bourne & Branch has phenomenal pizza. 85% of their menu can come in a vegan option, which is simple for group outings for non-vegan friends. 1 thing that’s a negative is their mozzarella log of perhaps Daiya cheese stick… no bueno. Their seitan Cajun dry rub wings are also good. Back to the pizza it’s a pan pizza but slightly fluffier, hard to explain but simply tasty.

Pros: Main vegan options, Vegan Chicken and Waffles

Cons: Mozzarella stick

Drunk food at a premium price

Was not impressed the food was greasy and average. I appreciate the large variety of vegan options, but tbh you are better off just making gardein stuff at home. Would not go back unless I was in a pinch. Got a pizza fried pickles and a sandwich for 50 dollars.

Pros: A lot of vegan options

Cons: Greasy, Expensive

Wasn’t impressed

My friend and I went here for dinner. Their menu looks great as I am vegan and he is not. Every dish on their menu can be made vegan. They allowed us to choose our own table and brought us a menu for drinks, since we do not drink we only skimmed the menu. It took about 10 minutes for someone to come to us asking to order but we asked for a food menu. No one told us until that moment to scan the QR code in the corner of the drink menu. Our food looked great, I ordered vegan chicken and fries, my friend ordered chicken and waffles. The breading around the vegan chicken was seasoned well and crunchy however it was extremely salty and so were the fries. As for the non vegan meal, the waffle was very flat, doughy and cold , not easily able to be cut. The chicken for the meal was very thin and skinny. When someone came to our table asking how the food was my friend answered honestly saying they weren’t satisfied but the waiter just said oh, sorry to hear that then walked away.

Pros: Many vegan options, Also offers Omni options

Cons: Customer service wasn’t great, The food was very salty

On of my go-tos in NoLibs!

Bourbon and branch has a vegan version of pretty much everything in their menu which is awesome. I would recommend either a sandwich or platter, all of which are delicious and decently sized, and to skip the pizza (small and just average for the pretty steep price - definitely some better vegan pizza joints in Philly). Staff is nice and they have outdoor seating a pretty large bar!

Pros: Many vegan options , Outdoor seating

Cons: Pizza is pricy

Great food & Big Portions

I ordered the vegan fried chicken platter was quite tasty. I should have taken pictures before to show how much I received. This wasn’t even half. The chicken, mac & cheese, and broccoli salad were quite a treat. I look forward to visiting in person soon.

Update: I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve had here except my pizza. It was overcooked and overpriced for the size. I would recommend trying the other options on the menu.

Pros: Great food, Several vegan options

Expensive, but really good

I LOVE burbon and branch. This spot is really good if you want to eat expensive or really treat yourself to some good vegan food or for a nice cute date. I have to mention as well that their pizza is amazing!!! I usually get their pasta or their burgers that are really good. 10/10 food, but just really expensive.

Pros: High quality food, Lot of vegan options, Cute date spot

Cons: Expensive

Always underwhelming

Second time eating here and neither time was impressed. Their vegan options seem super exciting but none have wowed me! My non veg friend got vegan food and did really enjoy it though! Give it a shot but definitely doesn’t compare to the other vegan eateries in this area.

Cons: very expensive

New Favorite

I wanted to try everything on the menu, but settled for the fried seitan chicken and mac and cheese which was better than I could have imagined! Can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

Pros: nice vibe

Lots of options

Lots of vegan offerings. Pizza & onion rings were delicious. Service was just ok, had to ask for plates to eat the pizza. Waited a really long time to be able to order a second drink. Would definitely go again though. Looking forward to trying out more of the menu.

Pros: Different vegan pizza each week, Clearly marked vegan options on menu

Cons: Service was just ok

Great vegan options

Had the mac and cheese, chicken and waffles and chicken strips (I think they were called something else). All great options and very filling to share.

Deserves 5 stars

This is hands down one of my favorite non-vegan restaurants in Philly. They have many vegan options and can veganize most of their dishes. Chicken parm, bahn mi, are my favorite sandwiches. They have beyond patties here as well.
Fried pickle veggies with ranch are a must!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly service, Ambiance

Not Amazing, But Still Delicious

B&B has a HUGE vegan selection, and for that I am thankful. I really liked the food here—especially the nachos! Seriously, these nachos were some of the best I’ve had. The wings and cheesesteak, however, were sub par. The taste was great, but the texture was very different from any seitan I’ve ever had—kind of gooey.
Overall, though, I can’t complain.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Nice ambiance, Good drinks

Cons: seitan is weird
