Delicious food

I had the breakfast bagel with tempeh and it was perfect! It tasted delicious. Also, I had the purple jungle smoothie and both were 🤤🤤. The to-go containers and straws were all compostable!

There were also a lot of fruits and vegetables, and other organic and vegan snacks & drinks for sale. We ended up getting a bag of grapes to keep in our hotel room.

There is covered seating outdoors. I liked the overall decor inside and outside.

I definitely plan to go back others days of my trip on Key West.



UPDATE: Before we left Key West my husband and I came back for our same orders again to take with us on the road…it was equally delicious and a great decision 😋…definitely will come back next time I’m in Key West.

FYI I would give 5 stars if Happy Cow allowed it

Excellent. Many vegan grab n go items, plus can order from menu.

I had the avocado toast with a small side salad. Awesome and completely hit the spot. Thanks!!

Pros: Many, many, many vegan options available., Grab n go selections are numerous., dry roasted nuts - check them out! yum.

Cons: the housemade coconut milk was a little weird.

Delicious!

Everything on the menu is fully vegan with the exception of a few items with eggs, so it was great to choose from so many options! We got the breakfast burrito (tempeh instead of eggs), the breakfast bagel (also sub tempeh) and another bagel with vegan cream cheese. Everything was awesome, especially the breakfast bagel. 🤤

Pros: Lots and lots of vegan options

Cons: None!

Eh

Pricey
Rude workers
Not the best vibe
But they have vegan options and there aren't that many in the area.

Just missed the kitchen

I got lost looking for this place because it’s tucked away in the neighborhood and arrived at 2:05pm. Let me be clear that they hold the cafe’s kitchen closing time to a strict 2:00pm. Fair warning. They do have a grab-and-go section with clear labels: vegan, vegetarian and even meat options. There are salads, sandwiches, dips, and spreads. There is a small health food/lifestyle section and a limited amount of groceries. Like a healthy convenience store with a kitchen and coffee shop.

I ate the Indian Summer salad ($14.50) from the cooler and it was quite good but expensive. Nice outdoor seating area.

Pros: Outdoor seating area. , Quality ingredients.

Cons: Expensive

Highly recommend!

Delicious fresh organic food! Many vegan options with the ability to sub tempeh for those items that are vegetarian. Serves delicious coffee with many plant based milk options (including homemade coconut milk). Breakfast burritos, açai bowls, Buddha bowls, avocado toast and so many more options. Gorgeous lush green patio outside. Highly recommend!

Pros: Emphasis on local and sustainability , Gorgeous lush patio to enjoy your food , All fresh and organic

Former gas station, eclectic, fun.

Plenty for vegans, fresh made. The staff is kind, casual, often shared outdoor seating. Food takes a while, so best to be on island time. There is also a little store with all kinds of goodies.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, smoothies, juices.

Cons: Only outdoor seating

Yummy!

Went here for lunch after hot yoga and a bike ride in the AM - was exactly what we needed! Super cute little funky cafe with great food and juices. Had the Buddha bowl and detox juice and my husband had the bean burger and berry smoothie - both were great, especially loved the sauerkraut in the bowl. The only downside is the price - $45 for the two of us. But hey, we were on vacation so no biggie!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Cute and quick

Cons: Pricey

Great food

I had a great time (or “thyme” — haha) here! The pesto veggie wrap was great, and a lot of food for the price. The portions are huge, so half of a wrap was enough for a meal.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Nice grocery store , Fair prices

Cons: No indoor seating — hot climate

Yum!

Stopped here for take-out dinner, and were very happy to find a small high quality selection of take out salads - a kale, quinoa, beet version we ate watching the sun set. Small place with a health food store vibe, friendly and easy parking - would recommend for vegans for sure!

Cozy comfort food

A simple cafe/market that provides delicious comfort food like rice and beans and tempeh wraps. Mostly vegan options though there are non vegan food. Great for lunch and breakfast!

This place is great - we ate here twice during our stay in Key West. Highly recommend the breakfast bagel with tempeh - some of the best tempeh I've had!

love!

Date and Thyme offers a significant variety of vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, all while focusing on organic. It's pretty remarkable for a restaurant to walk the organic talk, and they really do. I believe their kitchen is nearly 100% certified organic. Try the spicy tempeh wrap. The tempeh is made by a small family-owned business in Florida, and then they marinate it on site. Seriously delicious.

Pros: Cute outdoor seating area, Helpful and friendly staff, Market sells lots of vegan groceries

I love the concept of turning a gas station into a green café/health store! We had some tempeh wraps that were super tasty. The outside seating is really nice.

Worth a Visit!

Well-stocked store with a surprising variety of items, despite the small size. Comfortable, shaded outdoor seating. Lots of smoothies, juices, and coffees on the menu. Vegan and vegetarian food items are clearly marked. We stopped here for breakfast one morning, and the food was tasty! My husband had the oatmeal power bowl and I had the avocado toast. My only disappointment was that my breakfast was only one slice of toast for $5.95. We ended up stopping elsewhere for a second breakfast later that morning.

Ordered seitan wrap from menu and toast with bread from fridge. Both was great! Recommend for breakfast and lunch.

very friendly to vegans

Great vibe. Lots of healthy choices. Very eco-responsible. Breakfast wrap was good but not great. Would still go back and try other items.
