Jackson vegetarian restaurant since 1982. All vegan except for organic cheese. Desserts are vegan. Confirmed closed with plans to relocate, Jul 2018 - please send updates.
While the Harmony Bowl is always great (steamed veggies and braised tofu cubes over brown rice with an excellent sauce), each day there is a new offering that is totally worth checking out. There is somewhat of a pattern: on Wednesdays you can expect a Mexican style offering that is always top notch. And on Fridays, the vegan seaside cakes with slaw and dirty mashed potatoes and gravy is clearly the fan favorite. The ginger-lemonade drink is a great experience with a good zing to it. Prices are decent and the service is really quick! You order and pay up front so when you are ready to go - you just go. Almost forgot - dessert. The carrot cake. It's a big portion and will leave a long lasting good impression.
Recently, the High Noon changed dining formats. Now...you have a choice of the Special of the day or the Harmony Bowl. Also...soup of the day and dessert of the day. One orders at the counter, sits down, then when your name has been called, you go get your food. It is quick and efficient...and the Daily Specials are really good as is the Harmony Bowl in case the Special on a given day is not your cup of tea. The food is as good as it has ever been and maybe even better! Try it for I think you will like it!
I eat here often and Have loved everything I have tried! I often order the Messy Mushroom (beet burger with sauteed mushrooms and onions) Which actually is not on the menu anymore. They are only open for lunch, but have special dinners every now any then including local Farm-To-Table events.
It's too bad xSamx did not have a good experience at this place. Maybe things have changed since the four years and counting since he visited the place. I was skeptical at first but the positive reviews on Yelp peaked my interest. Reviewers on said site hailed from Seattle, Oregon, California and insisted they knew what constituted good vegan fare (and I tended to agree) and they claimed this place had some of the best food.
Upon entering we witnessed all walks of life eating at the cafe. The building was near a medical complex so many of the patrons donned their scrubs. We ordered taco soup, potato salad, and a Reuben sandwich. The taco soup was incredible, the potato salad was the best veganized potato salad I ever had, and the Reuben was pretty good. I do not know when I'll ever be in Jackson again but this place will certainly be a destination. The prices tended to be on the high side but it's worth it considering your surroundings.
As a band with four vegans in it, we were quite excited to hit an all-vegan cafe in Jackson. Unfortunately, both the quesadilla and the no-meat burger were not worth their price at all; poor or no taste, extremely small portions; not to mention strange service. We had a much better experience at the surprisingly vegan friendly Aladdin across the street. We will not be returning to High Noon Cafe.

High Noon - Edit
This place is in a shared location with a health-food/co-op type of grocery store and small "alternative" bookstore. Cool little place.

The food was just OK. The service was great.
A+ for effort and worth a visit if you want to go out for lunch or dinner in Mississippi.
