Special place!

Really cool that this charming diner features some vegan dishes on the menu. While the food I had was nothing special, dining at this place definitely is.

Meh

Definitely diner food, nothing is made in house. Only have gone because we just need something to eat after a long day of hiking but wouldn't recommend it if you're looking for a quality meal. Spent $48 (before tip) for gardein burger, double impossible burger and 2 upgraded sides (tots). Menu said both burgers came with vegan cheese but they came out without cheese.

Cons: Vegan options are pricey for quality

Adorable vibe

Friendly staff, many vegan options. I ordered a Portobello burger and sweet potato fries. The bun was delicious and the the sweet potato fries were like steak fries.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Price fair, Nice staff

Great place with a caveat

I really liked the retro style of this dinner and it’s amazing to have so many vegan options in this rural area. Yet, the waitress informed us that all food, vegan as well as meat, is fried in the same oil, therefore you have to decide yourself if this is vegan or not. I opted for the portobello burger since the mushrooms aren’t deep fried with any other food and it tasted good, even though it’s more a sandwich than a burger.

Really good menu

Went here twice - both meals were brilliant. Had an impossible burger and vegan burrito. They have a huge menu and everything is clearly labelled with a * if it can be made veggie/vegan. Decent portion sizes and good value for money.

Meh 🫤

It’s true what they say, there are a crazy amount of options. While they are clearly marked vegetarian, they are not clearly marked vegan… you’ll wind up asking a lot of questions. There’s actually too much on the menu, in my opinion. I think the quality of the food might suffer under the sheer quantity of choices. Also, the place is pretty dirty. There is grime everywhere, including on their diner cups. Not a fan of that. Service was also slow as molasses.

There is one vegan almond milk shake available, it’s meh. The flavor is strawberry banana, and the banana tastes artificial and takes over the entire flavor profile. It also separates just sitting on the table while you eat.

The vegan nachos were ok. There was a whole lot going on for surprisingly little flavor. They would greatly benefit from something creamy, like cheese.

Overall ok, but I won’t care if I never eat here again.

Cute diner decorated with old LP covers. Super friendly staff. So many vegan options, it was difficult to choose! Ended up going for a beyond meat burger which was super tasty, and a nice treat after a long day of hiking!

Pros: LOADS of vegan options, Friendly staff, Cute setting

Lots of options

Went here for breakfast & dinner during a trip to Yosemite. The food was okay. My favorite was the breakfast burrito. The side of breakfast sausage was just one link cut in half (for $6!), and the milkshake tasted like cough syrup. I appreciated the options though and the staff were friendly.

Pros: Plenty of options, Reasonably priced, Large portions

Cons: Some things didn't taste very good

Hooray for the vegan dog!

Since I already had eaten all other kinds of vegan food on my trip, the vegan dog was a welcome surprise and it didn’t disappoint! Had some vegan mayonaise with my seasoned fries and I really really enjoyed it!

Pros: Friendly staff, Vegan mayo, Good portions

Yummy diner food

Happy Burger Diner is a very welcome option when headed to Yosemite. It has multiple clearly labeled vegan options. They were promoting their "new" menu options for Vegan Dog and Vegan Nachos! Now vegan dog didn't surprise me but vegan nachos?! That seemed surprising. I had to give that a try, along with the dog of course. Huge plate of nachos which were somothered in enchilada sauce, guac and salsa. Both dog and nachos were very good.

Pros: Lots of clearly labled vegan menu options, Big portions, Fresh salad bar

Excellent food and service

So many vegan options I didn’t know what to pick and as always I order more than can be eaten. Full vegan range of good for you and not so good for you foods. The Mexican was great!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly service, Fast service

Cons: Not cheap but worth it

Happy Traveller

Found this place by accident but so glad that I did! So many vegan options. I had the black bean vegan burger and it was so yummy. The staff are friendly. Food can take a little while to come out because it gets so busy in there but I honestly didn't even care as they had free, fast wifi and a place to charge my phone. All I could want as a travelling vegan in the middle of nowhere!

Pros: Free WIFI, Lots of veg and vegan options, Fun retro theme
