Hearty Eats

I've visited Hearty Eats 2 times in the last month and each time every dish was interesting, very fresh and so satisfying.. Also their deserts are all made with natural sweeteners versus refined sugars (see pics). Hearty Eats is not totally vegan (they serve fish) so it's easy for non-vegans to feel at ease and yet super fun and varied for Vegan eaters. It's also gluten-free friendly.

I had a weekend lunch with a large group of omnis, and I picked this restaurant because it has a lot of vegan options. I started with their white bean miso soup, which was good, but didn't have much tofu in it. The Thai Noodle salad was good as well, but nothing outstanding. On the weekends, they have fried fish available, and I suspect that they don't maintain a separate fryer for their vegetable tempura, so beware if cross contamination is a concern for you. Service was friendly and efficient. A good place to stop if you're not on your way to Northampton, where there are much better totally vegan options.

Be sure to check out the glaciar holes just a block away, and don't forget to walk across the famous Bridge of Flowers!

sweet space to have a hearty vegan meal! weekday menu is vegan, with large salads, falafel, bbq tempeh, and root veg fries. weekends they fry fish. located just off hwy 2, in a beautiful river town with shops and walking bridges.

This place is completely vegan AND gluten free so there's no risk of cross contamination. The tempura veggies were the best I've ever had- crunchy and light with a tamari ginger sauce. I also tried the miso tempeh and my husband got the falafel. Everything was quickly prepared and super fresh. The staff are so friendly and the ambience is comfortable and inviting. We will return!
