Used to be much better

We used to eat here almost daily whenever we were in town but recent menu changes are unfortunate. All of our favorites have been removed (vegan bagel for me, babysitter sandwich for the Omni SO). They still have options for everyone, they just aren't as good, especially since I am not a Beyond fan.

Updated from previous review on 2018-04-05

Pros: Options for Omnis, vegetarians, and vegans

Cons: Menu change removed our favorite items

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately we had to make some unpopular changes to our menu in order to offer better service. In the past we have tried to do a little bit of everything to please all tastes and we just ended up with a bloated menu and slow service. Add continual staffing issues and we were just plain bad. We have streamlined our menu to retain our most popular items. With a smaller menu we can focus on increasing our speed while maintaining the same level of food quality. Now during a busy period instead of a 45 minute wait we are looking at a 10-15 minute wait. We still make most things from scratch, we are just able to provide better, faster service. We are sorry however that items you loved were removed. But we do hope we will have something for you in the future.

Decent food

This was a decent spot with many vegan options. The dishes were somewhat just thrown together. It’s definitely not fine vegan dining. I could have thrown together a better tasting scramble at home.

Pros: Many vegan options. , Decently priced.

Cons: Not the best tasting vegan cuisine ever. , Dishes seemed somewhat thrown together. , Not fully vegan.

Thank you for your feedback. While we strive to serve great tasting food we dont market ourselves as fine dining, let alone fine vegan dining. We are a breakfast and lunch restaurant with vegan options. We are sorry you felt the food was thrown together or the taste wasnt exceptional. We strive to be "everybody friendly" unfortunately everybody has different preferences and what one person loves one person might hate and the next person is indifferent. Our southern farm bowl (not scramble) is a crowd favorite amongst our regulars. However we appreciate your feedback and will continue to improve.

Breakfast sandwhich

They were so helpful navigating the menu and what was vegan vs vegetarian. Sandwhich is very hearty with the tofu and beyond meat. If anything maybe a little dry but it has vegan cheese and a vegan Datil Aoli! The potatoes on the side were so yummy too Overall very enjoyable!

Pros: The staff, Options

Great vegan breakfast sandwich!

The Beyond Breakfast sandwich was amazing. Tofu as the "egg," vegan cheese, beyond sausage, vegan aioli, and a nice toasted bread. Exactly what I was hoping for. You could get applesauce or potatoes on the side. The staff was great!

Updated from previous review on 2024-05-14

Pros: Tasty, Clearly labeled vegan option

Cons: Only 1 vegan option, No modifications

Nice find, just ok

More vegetarian than vegan but some options. The vegan sausage patties were Morningstar Farms. I'd give more stars but thought it was expensive. For the price I'd expect salt and pepper shakers at the table not tiny packages in the plastic utensil pouch.

Eh

The beyond breakfast sandwich was good but my least favorite breakfast from my trip to St Aug (manatee cafe and sprout kitchen both beat it by miles). My latte wasn’t very good.

Ummm....thank you. Not sure how we should take being a least favorite or why it was mentioned, but we appreciate the feedback. We are not a vegan restaurant at all but offer vegan options so of course restaurants that specialize in vegan foods will have much better options. Thank you nonetheless.

Manatee cafe isn’t all vegan either. I appreciate you having vegan options and hope you continue to do so! I did enjoy my sandwich. Just wanted to provide whatever information could be helpful for fellow vegans in choosing where to eat.

Delicious Vegan Sandwich

I had the Beyond Breakfast Sandwich, substituting the beyond meat for mushrooms with potatoes on the side. Not many options but that sandwich was so delicious with some nice bread, had to go for a second round.

Pros: Beyond Breakfast Sandwich, Attentive Staff

Satisfying Vegan Breakfast Option

Finding vegan breakfast options on a Sunday in St Augustine is a challenge. FarmHand came through with their Beyond Breakfast Sandwich. The best part is that you can sub the beyond patty for sliced mushrooms (win).

Horrible

Overpriced low quality food. Vegan Chorizo wrap was horrible with too-salty potatoes which made me feel sick afterwards. Farmhand Bowl was basically white rice w/ a couple beans, bland tofu, drizzled with basically ketchup with a fancy name. Totally overpriced. I would’ve rather have not eaten at all. Don’t even try to find any decent vegan food is near the historic tourist trap district.

Cons: Overpriced , Disgusting food

Farmhand Kchn is a Hidden Gem!

Truly loved the vegan chorizo wrap and beyond burger from Farmhand Kchn. I appreciate that the staff was offering suggestions that were vegan friendly. Planning on stopping here tomorrow to try the vegan bagel too!

Pros: Delicious options, Staff is knowledgeable is plant based options, Quaint decor

Cons: Would love more options, but that’s everywhere!

Disappointed

This place is very cute, but half of the vegan menu items weren't available to order. We checked this place out based on all the great reviews but what we had just fell flat. I had the bagel with pulled mushrooms and tofu and my husband had the chorizo wrap. Both tasted very bland like they didn't season it at all. We also waited 45 min for our breakfast to come out. They seemed very understaffed and super busy. Maybe we came on a bad day but the food was underwhelming so I gave it 2 stars.

Pros: Lots of vegan options and decent prices

Cons: Food was just ok

Delicious and Accommodating

We had a party of omnivores, lactose free, and vegans. We were able to wake everyone one up with a hearty breakfast that fit everyone's restrictions. The breakfast burrito with vegan chorizo has a kick to it. The tofu bowl has a whole assortment of veggies, portabella, and tofu all mingled together. Vegan cheese options available! Their coffee is wonderful; all the usual suspected for non-dairy cream alternatives. So good that we came back for seconds within the same vacation

Pros: Complete, filling meals, Good prices for the quality, Fast, accurate service

Vegan Brie 💜

I've actually never been to the location, we had a variety of sandwiches catered for my friend's bridal party - but the vegan brie grilled cheese option that was in that box was INCREDIBLE. I normally avoid vegan cheese (other than cashew cheeses that aren't trying so hard), but this replica was everything. Try if you get the chance.

Amazing burger!

City Bistro is open for dinner now and they serve an impossible burger “bistro style.” This burger comes cooked to your specificity topped with tomato jam, vegan cheese sauce, and arugula, all sandwiched inside a homemade bun. The staff was really friendly and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. There were plenty of vegan options on the menu but I recommend the vegan burger.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options!, Friendly and helpful staff, Great atmosphere

Perfect breakfast!

This place has so many vegan options! My loving non-vegan husband graciously agreed to get a vegan meal so I could choose 2 items. We got the vegan chorizo burrito and the vegan grilled brie (vegan babysitter). I just can't say enough how delicious they were! FYI there are NO vegan cinnamon rolls here. But really who cares! FIVE STARS! Bryce was so helpful.

Pros: everything

Cons: nothing

Really good food and good amount of options. As others have said, it is a little smokey, but it doesn’t smell meaty or anything.
