Would not recommend!!! - Edit
Complement: the waitress (herself a vegetarian) was very kind. Also, the black bean burger is confirmed vegan (without cheese, of course).
Read moreWould not recommend!!! Ordered the vegan plate, but my veggies had some corned beef mixed in with them. Thankfully I noticed before I took a bite. The waitress was super apologetic and got it remade and my meal comped.
It happens though. I understand. The real crime here is that a mediocre and small plate of wild rice and basic veggies (broccoli, spinach, carrots, and zucchini) costs $15.50, at least $2 more than any other dish ordered at my table (Reuben :/, pork😡quesadilla, and black bean burger). Additionally, the menu said the vegan plate had black beans, but there were none to be seen on either plate I received.
Ruby Bloom beer was good!

Home fries with veggies and soy cappuccino - Edit
My home fries with veggies were delicious and healthy! Service was extremely friendly, and I love the environment in this place!

Limited options but… - Edit
The home fries are the go to. Add veggies to it, and you’ve got a masterpiece

Very limited vegan options - Edit
For breakfast the only decent vegan option is oatmeal with a cup of fruit...for lunch there is a rice and beans plate. There are much better places for vegan food in Bloomington.

Could Have More Options... - Edit
The Spoon is a Bloomington institution, but it would be great if they they offered more vegan fare. What they do have is tasty!

Cons: Lacking in the creative veg dish department...
