We had the inferno chicken sandwich and the golden smash’d bol. Fantastic. Kind workers. Will have to try the bucket next time. Thank you.

It's ok

It's expensive and the strips aren't incredibly good.

Outstanding!

A great vegan eatery!
We enjoyed chicken sandwiches as well as buckets of chicken and the sides.
We even ordered as our family thanksgiving meal. Freezes and heats up wonderfully.

Pros: All vegan!

Damn good!

Delicious vegan comfort food. Tiny space. Only 4 tables. More of a grab and go place, but well worth it!

Pros: Delicious vegan food

Cons: Tiny space

Vegan fried chicken!

I stopped here during a layover in Minneapolis and im glad this place is what I picked. definitely doesn't taste exactly like fried chicken but it's a great choice for eating vegan. the food is so good. the crispiness of the chicken was my favorite part, and the sauces are perfect

Incredible

I was so blown away by the textures and flavors. My non vegan friends were so impressed and even said they prefer it over real chicken. The fried chicken packed a lot of flavor, and was tender and not too dense. The maple butter was as incredible as everything else, and it paired well with the biscuit! Every time I have friends that come to visit, they ask if we can eat here (both vegans and non vegans!), and I keep coming back.

They made pretty good Vegan chicken but expensive for what you get.

They make good chicken, need to give a larger dipping sauce

Cons: Expensive

Shredded Chik'n and Mac!!!

My favorite things I've tried there are the shredded barbecue chik'n and the mac and cheez. Those are excellent though the shredded barbecue sandwich is seasonal. Sometimes the mac and cheez seems like it's old and has started to "curdle" or something. My least favorite is the huge chunks of fried chicken. I think if they were a lot thinner they would be better. On a sandwich it's pretty good but again, could be better with thinner pieces. I think I just need more balanced texture? Not like a mouthful of seitan or whatever it is. Love most of the sides. Biscuits and stuff. Mmmm.

Pros: Really satisfies your cravings

Cons: Pretty expensive, Probably not gonna satisfy meat-eaters

Vegan fried chicken

Get your all-vegan fried chicken meal hear. Everything from the mains to the sides is recreated without animal products. They even made the chicken into different shapes to match the different cuts. The meat was tender, and the breading was crispy. If you get the macaroni and cheese, I recommend adding the extra crispies. If you are not vegan and like fried chicken, give this a try. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

You MUST MUST MUST Eat Here

I'm one of those "Never Writes a Review" types, but I just had to review this amazing place.

First of all, I remember when Aubry and Kale were doing their crowdfunding campaign years ago, and hoping so much that they would hit their goal. I loved their backstory and wanted to see a vegan startup succeed. I live quite far away and had wanted to visit one of their restaurants for years.

So on vacay, we went to Herbie's two days in a row. The food blew our mind and exceeded our already high expectations by a mile. The biscuits were the best I ever had, the chicken was insane, and the mac and cheese was yummy. The milkshakes were the perfect finish.

The service was just as good as the food. When we went back the second time, Ezra was working the front counter. He was very fast and efficient. While we were eating, I was hearing how he interacted with customers and how professional he was and that's what compelled me to ask him his name and write this review. He was super well spoken, very presentable, friendly, and hardworking. It was so very refreshing to see that kind of service and respect given to myself and the other customers.

Lastly, the kitchen staff were wearing gloves, which is EXTREMELY important to me. This restaurant experience was amazing and I am so excited to see what's next for the Herbie's :-)

Pros: The food is phenomenal , The service is phenomenal , The prices are reasonable

Vegan chicken?? Its legit

Great food. They are doing the best they can with covid restrictions and knocking out some amazing Vegan Chicken. Ordered online went and picked up at scheduled time. Everything went flawlessly. Food was as ordered and super delicious. Staff was friendly. Love this place. We live near Duluth and try to make a stop here every time we are in the cities.

Pros: Chicken like the omni chicken, ordering was smooth, Online ordering super easy.

More please!

I dream about the next time we are over by Herbie's so we can get more! This place is so delicious! We love taking our non-vegan friends here to try it out. The food comes out fairly quickly and I love that you can order online. The shakes are also the bomb! The staff is super wonderful and the store is always clean. We typically take our food to the park down the road so the kiddos can play and see lots of tables with some people noshing on Herbie's!

Very good

A KFC for vegans! I got the small bucket which came with 3 chicken pieces, tater tots, biscuit with cinnamon butter, Mac and cheese, and “honey” mustard. Everything was delicious! The chicken was exactly like the ones you get from the herbivorous butcher shop, which is good! but as a person who isn’t a huge fan of seitan based products it was only okay for me. The mac and cheese was AMAZING!! As was the honey mustard!! Definitely glad I went.

Would try it again

It was tasty but very salty. I would definitely try it again and see if they could just skip any added salt

KFC fix

This place will definitely cure any cravings for KFC you may have. The mac and cheese is the best I've ever had. The creamed corn was not for me and the mashed potatoes are okay. I also liked the coleslaw. I have definitely eaten too much of the "chicken" and felt sick after from the amount of oil though. The tater tots on the bottom of the basket is a really cute detail and overall I really like this restaurant.

Pros: mac and cheese

Cons: oily

The best.

Oh my god where do I even start? I had the blue cheese sandwich and my hubs and friends had a bucket to share. My friends, both meat eaters said it was one of the best fried chickens they’ve had.

Pros: Delicious unforgettable food, Right price, Best Mac n cheese and chik’n

Pretty Tasty

I got the bucket meal and the texture of the fried chicken is perfect, but the chicken could use a little more flavor in the seasoning. The sides were off the hook! Get the corn! The mashed potatoes are also very tasty. The milkshakes are spendy but made with Oatly and are probably the best vegan milkshake I’ve had- very thick. If you’re in Minneapolis, it’s definitely worth a visit.

Pros: Vegan, Good portions, Friendly staff

It's great. Give it a try.

Everything was good, most was great. We had a bucket with dragon dust and corn. The dragon dust is actually a little spicy, so be warned. I loved it. Even the blue cheese tastes right. I have some personal preference for a saltier biscuit with this type of meal, but the biscuits are still good.
