Affordable and delicious - Edit
A Philly cheesesteak with incredible cheese, a little spice and a touch of smoky flavor for $7.50? Yes. Please!!! First time here but definitely not my last.

A must visit - Edit
Absolutely delicious. I've already had two different sandwiches from here (the cheesesteak and the new Italian cold cut) and both have been phenomenal.
Read moreDelicious, fairly priced, full of veggies, and fully vegan! Great place to bring non vegans as well.

Tried and true but wish they were open later. Minus one star for closing at 5.

The best of the best! - Edit
Buds has to be my top choice for a solid vegan sandwich in Salt Lake City. Only open for takeout and mainly lunch hours but always a pleasant and efficient experience. The Banh Mi, Buffalo and pesto are my top 3, while all the menu items are a force to be reckoned with. The prices are probably the most affordable for vegan in salt lake. The staff is so friendly and rarely make a mistake I have not had one bad experience. I’ll always be a buds customer and always will love unwrapping one of their sandwiches for lunch. Besides the main courses the lavender lemonade and chocolate zucchini cookies are a fantastic edition to your meal. Shoutout buds you guys rock!

Looks better in person. - Edit
The pictures submitted on here don’t look very promising in my opinion but thank god I tried it out anyway cause these things are stellar. The bread is fresh and the sandwiches are larger than they look.

Fav vegan food in Salt Lake - Edit
This is a bold title, but I stand by it. This is one of, if not my all-time, favorite local restaurants. The flavors are SO good, textures are on point, and portions are super filling! We have liked everything here, but especially the Cheesesteak, Buffalo, and Pesto. We also got “Chick’n” noodle soup from them once when sick and it hit the spot
Read moreNot to mention, all of our non-vegan friends and family have loved this place!! 😍 we’ve taken many many people here 😋

literally so gooooood - Edit
this place is awesome. the hoagies are fresh and pretty filling. we had the cheesesteak and pesto and both were very good. fun place for omnis and veg alike. cookies are to die for - so chewy and gooey and melty and delicious. order ahead and it’s not too bad. patio was closed when we were there but you can eat in the shade of a tree out front or hop to a nearby park/city creek to chow down.
Read morePros: all plant-based!, prices are great, lots of options
Cons: wait is long (order ahead)

No Duds at Buds - Edit
The employee warned us there was about a half hour wait. I ordered the Mediterranean Veggie sandwich, which has house-made hummus, sprouts, cucumber, tomato, red onion, greens, peperoncini, and balsamic vinaigrette on a toasted sourdough hoagie. The patio seating was closed, so we sat on the grass. The sandwich was tasty and filling.
Read moreTips: Order online to avoid waiting. Keep the sandwich wrapped at the bottom while eating to avoid dripping.
Pros: all vegan, affordable, ask before providing plastic bag
Cons: busy, patio closed

Even the Omni liked it!! :-) - Edit
Delicious and a great range of options for a small place. We went during covid, so there was only outdoor window service and picnic-seating on surrounding grassy areas, but still a great spot.

Fantastic Banh Mi sandwich - Edit
The bread was very fresh and tasty. They serve a spicy banh mi that’s one of the best I’ve ever had. The zucchini chocolate chip cookie and horchata cold brew were also excellent. It seems very popular so have some patience.

Delicious sandwiches! - Edit
My mom and I split the cheesesteak and pesto chicken. They were both good, but I preferred the pesto. The person who helped me at the window was very sweet. Pro tip: order already online!

#1 sandwich shop in SLC - Edit
i love most of the menu but have settled on getting the regular cheesesteak most of the time. it’s absolutely incredible and i’m not surprised this place is so popular. i usually go 1-2 times a week and have had had a 5 star experience every single time.

Crave-Worthy! - Edit
I live in Montana and CRAVE these sandwiches- Buds is a must-have for me whenever I visit Salt Lake. Highly recommend the cheesesteak (and pizza steak) as well as the Buffalo Chicken. We tried the seasonal chicken noodle soup and instantly felt warm & cozy. The staff members are also spectacular. See you next trip! #Veganuary
