Loved the bowl

They have some yummy food, the bowl was pretty good. Personally I never understand why people order avocado toast because that’s literally the easiest thing to make at home but their bowls had some amazing sauces and were super good. The smoothie I got sucked tbh.... and no one came by to ask how things were so I guess they don’t do full service.

Pros: Good food

Cons: Smoothie was sub par. Maybe unlucky with unripe, No one asked how things were

Yummy vegan options

The staff was happy to explain which items could be modified to be vegan, and lots of menu items were already marked with the V to verify they were vegan. The Havana Bowl and Golden Milk vegan milkshake were both delish!

Pros: Decent vegan options , Cool downtown location close to shops

Cons: Not fully vegan

Simple, Wholesome Vegan Options

I really enjoyed my several visits to Green Sage Cafe! Their breakfast burrito was delicious, as was the Pura Vida bowl. I asked for the vegan version and they understood with no fuss or extra charge.
After my first visit they remembered my name and were very friendly. Food takes a while to prepare, and it can get busy, but a good place right downtown if you're in the mood for something quick and simple.
Great selection of locally made juices, kombuchas, beers too.

Pros: Friendly service, Most options can be made vegan, Veganized southern food

Cons: Long wait times for food, Can get busy

Good for a quick, healthy meal!

The forbidden city bowl was very good! They have vegan gluten free soup and several gluten free options. Meat is also available if you are with a mixed group. Lots of pastries and drink options. They have a vegan milkshake and smoothies but I have yet to try them.

Pros: Good amount of vegan options , Gluten free options , Friendly staff

Cons: Close relatively early so check hours

Great Options

Green Sage had some wonderful vegan options including bowls and vegan baked goods. I personally wasn’t a fan of the biscuits and gravy but the Huckleberry bowl was divine.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Fresh, healthy food, Good portions for the prices

Cons: Not a ton of seating

Good options, okay taste

I was really excited to try the biscuit and gravy. It was fine? The Tofu scramble was similarly just fine. Wouldn't object to going back, but not excited.

Great, easy breakfast option

This place was within easy walking distance of the hotel my family stayed at. We were in town for an overnight trip, and this place was great for a Sunday breakfast.

It's not on the menu, but they can do a vegan version of the Pura Vida bowl. It was a great and filling breakfast.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan and oil-free desserts

Cons: A little overpriced

Sustainable, delicious, and swift.

We were driving cross-country and stopped in for Sunday brunch; we are glad we did! I had the Greenway with maple tempeh bacon and avocado toast which was great. The tempeh and toast was my favorite. My meatatarian husband had the vegan taco-trio which he enjoyed! They also separate compost and use sustainable materials which I greatly appreciate as well!

Pros: Maple tempeh bacon, Kind staff, Swift food

Very good spot!

My daughter & I split the TLT w/avocado (tempeh, lettuce & tomato) which was delicious! We got the brown rice tabouli as our side; very nice. They had a nice selection of cold teas that you could add simple syrup to. My mom got the biscuits and gravy; the gravy was nice, but biscuits a little dry. My dad’s pancakes were also on the dry side, but tasty. I’d definitely go back on another Asheville trip.

Pros: Quick, Quality, Good tea

Cons: Stingy w/syrup, Need to work on biscuits & pancakes.

Great Food in Downtown Asheville

We tried the Buddha bowl and it was wonderful. Rice, spicy hummus, kale, salad, chickpeas and sautéed onions. Delicious.

The breakfast burrito had roasted root veges, tofu scramble, rice and beans and some tasty sauce.

Great please to visit right in downtown Asheville

Pros: Tasty, Friendly service, Comfortable place to sit for awhile
