Very good! - Edit

Was our first meal in New York and we cane very hungry and Jet lagged for breakfast,had a wonderful breakfast,was a bit disappointed by the misleading menu as it mentioned a chorizo omelette dish and it came without it,when I asked they said they took it out a few weeks ago but it's still on the menu..
Aside from that everything else was delicious I would however not order the pizza it came with some mushroom paste on it.
It's all about finding the right dish for you and there are plenty of options here.

Pros: Friendly , Many tables, Good food and service

Cons: Missing that fine tuning that will make it great, lack of attention to details, Laid back where it shouldn't be

Phenomenal - Edit

I was so impressed by everything there. It was my very first entirely vegan higher-end eatery! Food was great, atmosphere was great, the take-out accommodations were great. Everything was so good even my parents (who are very skeptical of veganism) were impressed.

Delicious! - Edit

I ate lunch here once and dinner here once. Both meals were tasty and service was efficient. We had hot chocolates too. Yum! We also tried their cakes which were delicious but I did feel that I might burst!

Delicious food!! - Edit

Whilst visiting New York I wanted to try out some Vegan restaurants so, as recommended by a friend, I downloaded HAPPYCOW and as a result found Peacefood Cafe.

I took a friend a long who is not vegetarian but she was willing try it with me.

I had the Cheese Burger and she had the HotPot. Followed by Peanut Butter Cheesecake and Carrot Cake with almond lattes to finish.

OMG!!! What delicious food!! I am only recently Vegetarian and I can honestly say that I have NEVER tasted a burger that good in all my life!!

The Hot Pot was delicious too.

As for the deserts the Cheesecake was impressive by any standards but the fact it was Vegan made it outstanding. However the Carrot Cake was truly spectacular although a little rich but it was moist and flavoursome!

Pros: Delicious Healthy Food, Good decor and friendly atmosphere , Great Value for money

Cons: service could be a little better but was not bad. , not enough Peace Foods in New York

Nope - Edit

Will not ever go back to Peacefood Uptown. It's obvious that the owners need to be around more. The staff ignore customers and give sass. The biggest issue I had was watching one of the servers drop a sandwich on the floor, pick it up, and put it in a takeaway box that was sent to a table. Absolutely never trusting them again.

While the food quality is pretty good, it can be a little greasy. The desserts and pastries were actually excellent, probably the only good thing about this venue.

Pros: good dessert

Cons: horrible service

Fantastic place - Edit

Location is nice and the place offers a cosy environment. most importantly they have a very friendly staff and healthy food, which are kind of rarities in NYC. everything is awesome, but a special mention goes to the pecan doughnut and the plain cheesecake that are indescribable.

I didn't love the favorite items - Edit

as much as everyone else...I had the chickpea fries, lasagna and fluffy quinoa salad and didn't have an omg mouth experience. They were good, but not amazing. On a save the day note, my carnivore kids did like the burger and the sandwich cookies were AMAZing (mint chocolate). Conveniently super close to the Natural History Museum and Manhatan's Children's Museum.

Pros: Friendly, prompt customer service, Great location, Yummy desserts.

Great vegan breakfast - Edit

I recently tried Peacefood for Saturday brunch, mainly because I was heading to Hampton Chutney Co (which has vegan-friendly Indian dosa) but it was only 10 am and Hampton Chutney wasn't open yet. Saw the sign for Peacefood Vegan Bakery right next door, so we tried it. The tofu scramble was excellent. The service was great. I will definitely be back - next time will head right to Peacefood. Another vegan place (Blossom du Jour) is across the street, so this block may have the highest concentration of vegan and vegan-friendly places in NYC. If you're looking for a great place for a vegan breakfast/brunch on the upper West side, check out Peacefood.

Pros: All vegan, Nice relaxing atmosphere, Tasty food

customer service experience - Edit

I was impressed by the waitress who attended me and two friends yesterday, and she was kind enough to offer us dessert when acknowledging our appetizers has not arrived sooner. Overall, a great place to eat with a team who cares about their customers.

Pros: Quality Customer Service, Welcoming environment, Delicious Food Options

Amazing vegan pastrys and juices!
Tried the raspberry crumble and Asain juice, sooo good. I highly reccomend this place for all vegans and anyone who is a non vegan, but likes food no matter what "name" is tagged to it. Absolutely amazing!!!

Excellent food for reasonable prices - Edit

My friend and her daughter and I had the vegan chili with cornbread, the dumplings and the most delicious smoothy I have ever had in my life (passionfruit). Everything was reasonably priced and delicious, especially the chili. The bakery items looked tempting, but this was meant to be a light lunch. The wait staff was friendly and helpful, the art on the walls - fun and modern, and we enjoyed every minute of our visit.

Pros: Delicious vegan food, Reasonable prices , Fun atmosphere

Cons: can get crowded
