Nice cafe, vegan options - Edit
I popped by for a weekday breakfast. There’s a decent number of vegan options - most items on the menu can be made vegan by withholding some ingredients - but there’s not many “vegan by default” options (so be prepared to “get less” as compared to a non-vegan). I also had to engage in some back and forth with the staff to ensure that my order was appropriately modified to be vegan.
Read moreThe food was prepared quickly and it was tasty, but I don’t think Emissary has the best options given the prices. I had a salad dish and coffee for about $25. I’d recommend this location if you’re in DC, but also I encourage the owners to better accommodate vegans.

Zero points - Edit
On their website they say that they are vegan and vegetarian friendly - but there’s nothing vegan on the menu. Even their cupcake is described on the menu as ’Definitely not-vegan chocolate cupcake’. I don’t get a vegan friendly vibe from that, rather the opposite.

Good brunch spot, good vibes - Edit
Avocado toast with the green smoothie and an almond latte make a great brunch. Just ask no honey.

Amazing food, wish it was labeled - Edit
I want this place to be vegan heaven, because it really could be. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. But vegan options aren’t marked on the menu, so even when you think it is (grapefruit avocado salad sounds safe enough), it comes with buttered bread that’s not listed.
Read moreIf they just went through and marked vegan options on the menu, or gave an easy cue as to how to veganize them (ie removing honey from an otherwise totally vegan smoothie), this would place would be one of the best for vegs in the area.

No vegan options - Edit
Though the description on Happy Cow says there are vegan options, I was just at the restaurant and there are not. I walked through the menu with a staff person and she said, well the avocado toast is vegan But it has a little butter in the bread. She also thought eggs are vegan. They do have smoothies. I didn’t ask if they were vegan.

Lovely community centric cafe - Edit
The vibe is community centric and welcoming. Coffee and teas are all lovely, and they have pretty much any plant-based milk you could want. Favorite dishes include the oatmeal, hummus sandwich and beet salad (hold the feta). Also the chai latte with almond milk is lovely.
