Support the 100%vegan cafe in Dover! - Edit
Delightful little cafe with comfy environment, fantastic food, and lovely service. I got The Sunny on a bagel, and Bagel with sun-dried tomato cream cheese and tempeh bacon. They do comfort food really well. Always support 100% vegan! It’s the only one in town.
Read morePros: Kind and welcoming staff. , Delicious comfort food, Cozy space.

Cute place, good food! - Edit
Food is always good every time I’m here. I love the decor and art available for purchase, as well as the to go section if you need something extra quick. Food always comes out fast too! Food is a little expensive for a cafe, and portions aren’t huge for the price but they are big enough to fill you up. For reference my burrito was $15.
Read morePros: Good food, Friendly staff, Artwork for sale
Cons: A little pricey

Call in advance: Currently was closed. And no info on website - Edit
I can't say much more. It was really annoying that we drove here just for some food on our trip back through New Hampshire. But on arrival we found out the place was temp closed. There wasn't any detail on their website. We went around the corner to The Nook. Was a lovely cheap and cheerful cafe with tofu scramble.

Small + cozy - Edit
Quaint vegan breakfast/ brunch spot in Dover. Just a few tables a bar. Food is flavorful. No wishing I had brought in the garlic salt or chilli powder from the camping kit here! Grab and go was a hit as it allowed hubby and I to grab breakfast for tomorrow.

excellent smoothies - Edit
The kitchen closes at 3 so we grabbed smoothies. I’m not usually a fan at these types of places but both the “protein dream” and the “blueberry muffin” smoothies were fantastic.

Brunch Hit - Edit
Came for brunch on a Friday and tried the blueberry muffin smoothie, a matcha latte, an avocado blt, and the chocolate chip cookie. All were very good and we didn’t have to wait long for our food. I do wish there were more side options for the sandwich like chips, fries, or side salad.
Read moreLove that they offer reusable take out containers and have a compost bin, but I was surprised that the smoothie and latte cups for an order we ate in restaurant was not served in glass or another reusable cup.

Okay - Edit
We got a taco salad & homefries.
Read morePortion size was smaller than we expected (based on previous reviews) especially for the price! It was good, but nothing GREAT.
Service was slower than expected for a cafe. And they totally needed ventilation. It smelled like grease !

Cute! - Edit
I got one of their seasonal fall smoothies. It was very good! They stop serving food at 3 even though they stay open until 4 but the rest of their menu looked good. I'd love to try it sometime

Weekly Treat! - Edit
I've only ever tried açai bowls...because they are amazing, and I can't stop ordering them every time I come in. So, I have yet to try anything else on the menu, despite really wanting to. Although I'm GF, so I'm always a bit reluctant to order sandwiches with GF bread because it's an upcharge and smaller (typically not tasty) bread. They use O'Doughs bread, which looks good (but is smaller, so I'm guessing the sandwiches will be smaller.)
Read moreEnough about GF bread😜Back to these amazing açai bowls. They're really generous in size (yay), come with GF granola (yay, no upcharge) and I typically add in protein powder (a reasonable upcharge.) A great meal, which I eat next to my pup, and share banana slices with her. I get them without agave. It's our weekend treat.
One day I'll stick around all day so I have room for a savory item.
Yay for compostable packaging and a compost bin!
Update: tried the Scram-bowl. Very yummy. But not large enough for me to feel satiated. Adding in veggies would’ve helped with that. But it’s rare to find places that offer a bulk of veggies in a vegan dish (why is that??)
Updated from previous review on 2024-02-11
Pros: All vegan homemade food, Lovely staff, Great portion sizes
Cons: Tiny space, so takeout is easiest, Street parking fills up

We live in Kittery and make the trip to Dover specifically to visit Roots close to once per week.
