it's all vegan - Edit
The outdoor seating along the water sets the tone immediately: calm, open, and unhurried. It feels like a place where you can actually exhale and enjoy your meal.
Read moreWe ordered a range of dishes to experience the menu — the special mushroom & “goat” cheze pizza, tofu scramble, blueberry pancakes, curry “tuna” sandwich, and the crispy chick’n sandwich — and every plate delivered.
The mushroom & “goat” cheeze pizza was layered and balanced, with rich, earthy flavor and a creamy finish. The tofu scramble was well-seasoned and satisfying without being heavy. The blueberry pancakes were light and comforting. The curry “tuna” sandwich had great texture and warmth from the spices, and the crispy chick’n sandwich was hearty and flavorful — the kind of plant-based comfort food that doesn’t feel like a substitute for anything.
Service was genuinely friendly and attentive, adding to the ease of the experience.
A fully vegan restaurant that feels elevated but approachable, aligned with compassionate values, and genuinely delicious. I’ll be back when visiting West Palm Beach again: )

Delicious Food - Edit
We will definitely be returning to this restaurant! They have a great outdoor dining area which we chose to sit for lunch. I like that they offer half salads and a kids menu. I got a single palm cake just to try and it was delicious (the sauce - WOW). The chicken sandwich was great!

Still Excellent After All These Years: A Return to Darbster - Edit
We have been going to Darbster for years. We had not been back in a while, probably since before Covid, so this was a return visit. We were not disappointed.
Read moreThe restaurant is named after the owners’ dog, Darbster. We have brought our own dogs here many times over the years, and dogs are welcome. There are usually a few around, and it makes the place feel easy and friendly.
There are three places to sit: inside, on the patio, and in the garden. All are good options.
The food was excellent. We started with the palm cakes, their vegan version of crab cakes, and the glazed cauliflower wings. Both were very good. For mains, we ordered the Wellington, the burger, and the Parm hoagie. All were strong.
All profits, plus fifty cents from every dish, go to animal rescue run by the owners.
We were glad to be back and will not wait so long next time.

Great cafe - Edit
I was really excited to come here for the first time. They have a sweet little outdoor area with a water fountain. They offered a number of specials, but was out on the one that I wanted, the turkey roulade.I ended up with a roasted pumpkin apple bisque, a fall salad and a palm cake followed by the brunch chicken sandwich. My only suggestion is to leave off the onions on the fall salad because there were too many and it interferes with the delicate flavors of the other ingredients. I had to remove all my onions.  the turkey rod.
Read morePros: Great menus, Good service, Excellent flavor profiles in the dishes
Cons: Too many onions on things.

À twist on the traditional combo - Edit
So obviously, this is a twist on the original ie, no ham or eggs, but the inclusive of tomato was different and worked pretty well. I’d give my eye teeth for someone to create a mock-poached egg, but the scramble did fine, the tempeh ‘bacon’ was really tasty and just the right amount of crunch, and the potatoes we’re deliciously spicy, at times overpowering the hollandaise, which should probably be the star of the dish.
Read moreThe service was great and they have a good wine list. Nothing was too pricey.
Pros: Flavors were great , Serving size, perfect, The little salad
Cons: Ketchup - more Hollandaise would have been amazing

Love the Ambience - lights at Dusk or Evening, Fresh Air, Plants - I do not drink though .... they do serve alcohol - Edit
They are so very sweet, attentive and professional - the wait staff. I enjoy things here I would not eat elsewhere though -always great options: those yummy sweet potato fries with aioli (sprinkled with sugar & cinnamon), fresh spring salad, hummingbird cake .... the specials do change weekly and are seasonal. Very nice if you go by yourself as well ... you'll love the atmosphere. Furry four leggeds are welcome to dine in as well - how can you go wrong!

Amazing good, gross staff - Edit
A line cook was walking out the bathroom which smelled terrible upon entering. When I went to wash my hands there was no soap which means there’s no way the line cook could wash his hands.

Whole family loved - Edit
We were celebrating a big birthday with vegan and omni guests and everyone left saying the food was fantastic, the ambiance perfect, and the service absolutely top-notch.. the ONLY negative is that the mushroom sliders aren’t available as a full sandwich because OMG they were phenomenal! The sweet touch (literally) was the gifted brownie for the bday boy. Can’t say enough about this place! Oh! And profits go to critters?! The BEST!
