Don’t bother, you missed it.

I’m not one for pinning over the glory days but… When they first started it was the BEST vegan breakfast spot in the city. They went hard for a couple of years with everything. The donuts were the best you could find around town, not cake dressed up as donuts.
Once it switched owners it went down fast. Started with fish being added then bacon. The breakfast sandwich started losing flavor, then you had to pay more to add things like lettuce or tomato. Which before just came on it. It just lost its touch. When a vegan or vegetarian spot starts to add meat to the menu, you can count me out.

Very welcoming to vegans

Stopped here because I was a nearby comic store. It’s a great place to get lunch and read. I enjoyed the Star Wars theme and decorations, plus some Kiss stuff. I’ll definitely return for other baked goods and bagels, but I couldn’t resist the banh mi. I should have ordered two!

Great vegan donuts!!!

Actually the vegan egg and cheese sandwich was also outstanding, and well worth the walk up the hill from Lawrenceville. We had a delicious breakfast in this chilled and super-friendly, neighborhood cafe, sitting on the porch in the sun, on a visit to Pittsburgh. Will definitely try to make it back. Thank you!

Pros: Donuts, Friendly, Coffee

Love it

The vegan BLT and the vegan bacon, egg, and cheese are literally perfect.

Vegan donuts on the weekend, but they sell out quick!

Vegan bacon egg & cheese is the BOMB

Got a vegan bacon egg & cheese sandwich and it was delicious!!! There were also some vegan vanilla matcha donut hearts (the matcha was a creamy filling) and that was incredible. Love that there’s free coffee refills when dining in as well!

Delicious breakfast!!

It’s so nice having some good vegan breakfast options! I got the vegan egg and cheese with vegan bacon. 10/10. Also got the orange donut and pumpkin donut. All their alternative milks are house made as well! I highly recommend it. (Also free parking 😆)

Great service, good choices

The breakfast sandwich was good. I was curious to try the vegan bacon, they were out but apologetic and kind. Lots of plant milk choices. Doughnuts are served Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and I couldn't make it. I've had their donuts before and they're a fave of mine. They had two muffin choices and both were tasty. Good tea selection.

Would Give 5 Stars If Happy Cow Let Me

I’m so happy I found this place! Coffee and vegan donuts are my jam, and that’s what this place has. I also got the breakfast sammy and my boyfriend and I sat in the outdoor seating area while we got to use their public wifi. Super friendly staff, and absolutely delicious coffee and grub, go here!!

Chill

Had a little hammy sammy, it was cool but really just a little nibble. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day people. Don’t be stingy.
Edit: I’ve changed my mind. It’s a good sandwich and it’s a fine size. Maybe I was just extra hungry and irritable that day.

Oh my gosh, so good

GET. THE. DONUTS. Got a strawberry banana donut (sounds meh, but was honestly the best vegan donut I have had).
Also got the vegan egg and cheese, and the ingredients were a high quality and did well.
I would give it 5 stars for the donuts, but the app won’t let me give 5 stars without the place being fully vegan

Great breakfast sando

We really enjoyed the breakfast sandwich with spinach. Unfortunately they’re not carrying mock ham right now—the proprietor said he wasn’t able to charge enough to break even on it, but he’s looking for a new distributor. Can’t say I missed it though!

Pros: Excellent tofu scramble , Solid soy latte, Friendly (and vegan-friendly) owner

Cons: If you walk here Maps might tell you to cross, Bigelow Avenue without a traffic light

Breakfast Experience

Came here as our last stop in Pittsburg before heading back to Canada from a weekend stay. It was exactly what we needed. Felt like a little local hub of the town on a Sunday morning. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast sandwich was so good and my latte was spot on! Would definitely return.

Pros: Hospitality, Customization, something for everyone, Great tasting and appropriately priced

Great breakfast !

The breakfast sandwiches we probably the best we ever had. The vegan ham and seitan steak were thick and delicious. The coffee was so good with oat milk that we took seconds to go.

They said they are closing for renovations for expansions soon, so call before going.

Amazing food!!!

I would give 5 stars if I could. It seems pretty much like a fully vegan place to me. Anything they have can be made vegan. I got the vegan egg and ham Sammy and it was delish! The ham was super thick and the cheese was melty not sticky. And the oat milk latte was fabulous

Pros: Anything can be made vegan

Alright

I've only eaten here once and got the vegan reuben with an iced matcha latte. The latte was pretty good! The reuben however was mostly, like an inch thick of sauerkraut with very little seitan. The seitan and reuben sauce did taste good though so I would definitely like to give it another try!

Egg sandwich

Best vegan egg sandwich! So flavorful and packed with tofu egg. Oat milk latte was delicious with great coffee flavor. Wish I had a coffee shop like this back home. Husband got the vegan egg sandwich with sausage which was just as delicious!
