55 South St (at Custer St), Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, USA, 02130
Serves meat, vegan options available. This cozy and funky cafe offers plenty of vegan food, clearly labeled. Food includes cookies, cupcakes, sandwiches, salads, smoothies, pizza by the slice, and more. Has non-dairy milk for coffee. Try the peanut butter ball dipped in chocolate or the vegan whoopie pie. You could also order custom vegan cakes. An ever-changing array of art lines the walls. Look for the green awning and yellow letters sign. Established since 2001.

Love this place! - Edit
Our bunny was being treated at Angell and we were so happy to find this place near by. We absolutely love their vegan options. My favorite is the vegan cheese melt and my husband has tried almost all of the vegan options and loves them all. Definitely recommend if you're in the area. Small, cozy eating area but there was a sign last week they will be also opening a patio for the summer. Also, love the bakery/pastry options that are vegan...always a treat!
Pros: Great food, Great vegan options

great vegan menu! - Edit
we came here for brunch on a sunday morning. the seating is pretty tight, but the vegan menu is so awesome we didn't mind! delicious iced coffee and vegan treats and pastries. We tried the vegan bagel sandwich and tempeh, and got some chocolate pnut butter balls for a brunch dessert. :)
Pros: vegan menu, vegan baked goods, iced coffee
Cons: cramped seating, pastries not labeled if vegan

amazing vegan food! - Edit
I had the vegan Italian maki: a panini type sandwich with eggplant, spinach, avocado, caramelized onions, pesto, and spicy veganaise, DELICIOUS!!! My husband had a seitan bagel sandwich. His was good too but my was GREAT! Sadly, none of their desserts are vegan but I did have a yummy banana, PB and soy milk smoothie! I will definitely come here again when I'm in Boston, great find!
Pros: food, atmosphere
Cons: no vegan desserts

Good food and lots of baked goods - Edit
Fiore's has several great vegan sandwiches (more than half) very clearly marked, good baked goods and a consistently friendly attitude. I would, of course, be happier if they were totally vegan, had more space, and more selection of vegan baked treats, but frankly they are one of my go-to places for good food in reasonably short order, and the food is good and doesn't ever taste like it came off a line.
Pros: Personal, Good hot sandwiches, Baked goods
Cons: Can get crowded, have to ask about baked goods, space has some wear

Vegan pizza! - Edit
Fiore's Italian Bakery is a wonderful establishment in a great part of town. They cater to most everyone, but vegans have many options from salads to sandwiches, vegan pizza made with a cashew cheese and many pastries. From time to time they also have a gluten free and vegan pastry. I've never had my socks knocked off by anything at Fiore's, but they are a great establishment overall, meeting the needs of vegans with many options.
Pros: Good range of options, Good value, Nice vibe
Cons: Closes early

Great Vegan Options! - Edit
We stopped in to Fiore for coffee and hoped we'd be able to find a vegan muffin or something to snack on. Instead, we found a whole section of the menu entitled "Vegan Sandwiches," which were very delicious. The bakery case (even one hour before closing on a Sunday night) was filled with cookies, cupcakes, and pastries that were all vegan.
You still need to ask, not all the baked goods were vegan, but there were plenty of options, both savory and sweet. They also use vegan gluten-free bread on request for the sandwiches, which is rare, but wonderful.
Pros: clear labels, pastries
Cons: small tables

zaphod46 01 Feb 2013 - You are right, the GF bread is not vegan any more. They switched brands a while ago.
RiskyBiz 22 Feb 2013 - I don't believe the gluten free bread is vegan, based on what they told me many months ago (though maybe they changed brands). Be sure to double check, I've found that food service staff tend to assume that gluten free bread products are vegan, when they typically contain eggs.
