Delicious falafel

Extremely friendly staff who always remembers that we’re vegan. We love the falafel wrap and occasionally they have some vegan treats too.

Falalalalalalalalafel

I've had a lot of falafel in my days and nothing compares to the falafel at Pita Pockets!! It is seriously so good and family run! The younger guy who works there is seriously so friendly, it's always a really pleasant time to stop by here for some lunch. The line can get kinda long during really busy lunch rush but it does move really quickly and is so worth it. The owners are super accommodating to vegans, so if you tell them you are they'll be happy to make you a really awesome falafel wrap! (or whatever you'd like). I sometimes get fries or grape leaves in my wrap as well. The food is so tasty and fresh and the hummus is also amazing! It's homemade and sometimes I take a tub or two home because it's so irresistible! I would highly recommend stopping in here for lunch or dinner if you want an all around good experience with amazing food.

Pros: delicious, low price, friendly environment

Cons: cash only I think (there's an atm inside), not open on Sundays

Delicious!

Several vegan options & friendly folks! The vegan pocket, falafel plate, falafel salad, stuffed grape leaves, and jedra are all delicious and vegan. You can customize what veggies go in salads and wraps. Be sure to say if you are vegan! Sometimes they have vegan halva or date cookies for dessert, but not always.

Pros: tasty & inexpensive, made fresh in front of you, pickled turnips

Cons: can be a line at busy times, but it moves quickly

Great food, generous people

Great place! We were visiting Amherst for the day and stopped in for a quick bite. The folks who work here are super nice. Plus they understand dietary restrictions, and vegan items are clearly labeled on the menu. In fact, when I told them that I was vegan, the man who was making my wrap said "I love spoiling vegans" and added some goodies to my meal (grape leaves, extra hummus). That was after they already gave us a few falafels to munch on while we waited to order.

The food was great, and the portions are huge. I'm looking forward to coming here often when I move to the area.

Pros: Huge portions, Friendly to vegans, Good value
