Vegan Bacon

Branch Out is probably the best vegan restaurant I've ever been. The vegan bacon was so close to the real thing I was convinced it was real.

The staff was friendly as well. I wish they had a location closer to where I live.

Plant Based

My watermelon wasabi bowl $13 was very good (avocado was not totally ripe)but a nice spice

Other dish was a chicken sandwich $12 with fries (dry, ask for more mayo, wants another $1. For mayo on dry sandwich, we went to complain about it and they made it right

Over good

Pros: Plant based , Good selection , Large space

Cons: Food was good but had to ask to make it great , Lack of detail limit on parking

Branch out is amazing!! It never disappoints!!

Went to Branch Out today, a tradition I do every time I’m in town. Had the Greek Gyro bowl and tried two of the cookies. This restaurant is my absolute favorite and holds a special place in my heart…

Oyster mushroom po boy!

The po boy was delicious! We also got Dahl soup, garlic Mac and the Indian bowl. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch! Great find while traveling! #Veganuary

Vegan gem in a small southern town

Now here in Paducah, after living out west for several years. Thrilled to have found this amazing family owned vegan restaurant in our charming downtown. 2 adults and 2 kids (the 3yo is the harshest critic)feasted on some of the best vegan dishes we've tasted anywhere. I don't care where in the country you're from if you are anywhere near Paducah KY you must visit Branch Out. The Harvest Bowl and the Coconut Shrimp Tacos that were the daily special were absolutely delicious. The above-mentioned 3yo kept muttering "yuuummm" the 8yo just ate, grinned and ate some more. Smiling, friendly staff a plus! Don't miss this place.

Delicious food in a small town

I've lived in Southern Illinois for over ten years and finally made it over to Paducah for lunch at Branch Out during our Spring Break! I had the Hearts of Palm Fish Tacos with a side of Indian Street Fries while my 14yo had the Quinoa Nachos. My 10yo had the mac'n'cheese and ate some fries that my non-vegan husband ordered. 😋

The tacos were sooo delicious, and my teen absolutely *loved* the nachos so much that he now wants cashew cheese on everything! 😆 My daughter didn't care for the mac'n'cheese much saying that it was too "spicy". I tried a bite and thought it tasted okay. Not the greatest but decent. If they toned down the garlic/spices and upped the creaminess (like the sauce on the nachos), it would probably be much better/more kid-friendly. Looking at other pictures of the Indian Street Fries on here, mine seem to have been overloaded on the spices and weren't very enjoyable. The regular fries were great, though.

We each ordered a dessert to take home and enjoyed everything. The cupcakes and brownie were probably our favorites. I didn't see that they offered milkshakes (as a previous reviewer mentioned), but maybe that's a seasonal offering. They offer several different flavors of donuts every Saturday (several different donut flavors s each month), but we arrived late in the day... and they were all gone. Like most good restaurants, Branch Out changes several dishes on their menu seasonally, so we're all looking forward to another visit this summer. 🌞😎

I’ve been eating here for many years and their food is consistently wonderful.

I ordered the seasonal coconut shrimp tacos, corn chowder, and a frosted animal cracker donut.

Good food

I thought this place was good, not great. But for the options in the surrounding area, it’s the best you’ll find for sure. We got the buffalo chicken Mac and cheese which was our favorite thing we got. We also got the honee Dijon chicken sandwich which was fine but not very flavorful.

A staple

This place has been a saving grace! I’ve legit had every single item on the menu and have never once felt I was missing out on flavor and texture. I am happy to say this is the only place I’ve eaten in Kentucky where I’ve never gotten sick once. I have dairy and gluten allergies AND care a lot about animal welfare. Bonus- I’ve taken my Omni friends here and they have all had a wonderful experience here. Thank you for being such a gem 💎 and bringing so much love to the small town of Paducah

Pros: Gluten Free!!!, Restaurant AND bakery together 🧁 , Each dish and pastry is 5/5 stars

Cons: There aren’t any

Preparing menu, odd choices

Service is pleasant and choices on the menu were refreshing. However, the falafel was not made of chick peas, with no indication on the menu that it was something different. Rice paper bacon was served burnt.

Clean and healthy

Awesome place. Friendly staff. Food is healthy, not junk vegan food. Prices are good! Also. They provide silverware, glasses and real plates. That helps a lot on generating trash with disposable things.

FIIIIRE!!!!!

I grew up in Paducah and now I live in Asheville, NC. Asheville is a Mecca of vegan dining and trips home always prove to be stressful due to the lack of dining options. Not any more. This place is awesome!!! You should open a location in Asheville. You’d absolutely kill it there.

Pros: Entire menu is vegan. , Everything was deeeelish!!!, Staff was super friendly.

Cons: This place wasn’t here when I grew up here.

Branch Out makes being vegan easy

Branch out was my first true experience eating at a vegan restaurant and I was blown away. Had every option in the menu multiple times. My standards were extremely high for vegan food at this point. I soon realized as I started eating vegan food in other states that there really isn’t a better restaurant than branch out. The colors the flavors everything 🤌🏻 I’d eat there every day if I could

Pros: Healthy food and junk food , Lots of options from different cultures , Deserts (peanut butter cookies sometimes)

Cons: There aren’t any , They aren’t open 24/7, The peanut butter cookies aren’t infinite
