Owners are rude

Owners are extremely rude, in my opinion. The food is not worth the poor environment

Shame

Went once and enjoyed the (extremely expensive) food just to learn later that it wasn’t even vegan. Owner brought us some free vegan truffles which I initially took as a nice gesture but then the rambling started. I guess giving us some truffles was supposed to get us to feel obligated to listen. We were there for about 30 minutes and didn’t have any time to just talk to each other while he ranted and raved about Covid and masks and the deep state or whatever. Honestly really annoying and a terrible gimmick for his place. Just shut up and give me some pizza (and make the crust actually vegan rather than telling people that other vegans “don’t care”)

Pros: Good food (secretly not vegan lol)

Cons: Annoying and preachy, Overpriced, Not even vegan

Before I get shat on for being a lib, I’ve gone to other vegan places with Covid policies I disagree with that we’re good, friendly and actually VEGAN and I would still go back to them. It was really more the extremely irritating ranting at me that turned me off to the place as well as finding out it’s not even vegetarian let alone vegan

Couldn't care less about politics

They had safe and delicious vegan food. I could not care less about their politics, I care that I was able to safely eat pizza that tasted GOOD for the first time in a year.

Pros: Care taken for food allergy, Kindness shown to reassure me of the safety of my , Friendly service

Food overshadowed by harsh vibes

Other reviews were correct, employee was wearing a shirt that read “masks are for Halloween.” Considering veganism is so strongly tied to ethics and doing the right thing, I can’t see myself financially supporting a place that actively harms its community with unscientific stances and general immaturity. The pizza wasn’t nearly good enough to make up for that.

Pros: Fully separate plant based menu, Lots of options for toppings, The spooky/halloween vibe was fun

Cons: Awful politics and health mindset, Service seemed unenthusiastic , Pizza a little overly cooked, wasn’t very good

Stay healthy, stay away

the politics, the hour long rant against mask wearers, and suppressed violent outbursts have just made this place feel unsafe on many levels. Stay healthy, stay away

Pros: vegan menu

Cons: does not feel place, too much anger, cannot trust

Great vegan options

I loved the vegan options. I was really happy with the vegan grilled cheese with bacon and onions. It was delicious.

Pros: Extensive vegan menu, High quality ingredients , Vegan dessert

Cons: Limited seating - carryout is probably best

Great tasting pizza

Despite what many people are saying, I focused on the food rather than the people themselves. I don’t find the duck feather an issue because there are many other items that don’t contain that so take your pick and choose according to your conscience. Now, as far as flavor? Oh boy! One of the best tasting vegan pizza I have ever had (I’ve been in the game since 92’). The vegan chicken strips made of soy curls are ok, just a bit high on the sodium side for me. Every other vegan option, including the bread sticks were amazing to me.

Pros: Considerable Prices, Amazing Flavors, Creativity In their dishes

Cons: Duck issue could discourage some, Soy curls are a bit salty

Best pizza in town

So many vegan options, amazing staff, super consistant , we eat there every other week and love the vegan pizzas. The owner is very kind and it’s always ready on time. Best pizza in the area no doubt.

Disappointing management mocking pandemic safety

We enjoyed the food until the owner refused to follow a mask mandate and attacked customers for wanting him to follow health and safety protocols. Just buy from https://bethehive.com/ and make your own using their awesome ingredients.

Pros: Vegan menu

Cons: horrible customer experience from management

Great place for everyone! Vegan, vegetarian, or meat eater! There is something to make everybody happy. Had a veg thin crust and it was awesome! I'll be back to try all their deliciousness!

Pros: Has a full vegan options menu

Cons: None!

Politics and COVID response drove me away

Their food was actually pretty good, but their Facebook posts and no mask usage during the height of the pandemic kept me away and will continue to do so in the future.

No masks, no business

Food is already life or death for some folks, allergies and such. I can't trust a restaurant to serve safe food if they are lax about masks and COVID. I used to love this place too.

Used to be a favorite...

I genuinely loved this place and the idea of having both vegan and nonvegan options side-by-side, but ever since the Covid-19 pandemic hit, the owner has decided to place politics and pseudo science above his customers. He even went as far as to make t-shirts saying: "masks are for halloween." Suffice it to say, I won't be supporting Spooky's anymore.

"Vegan" Pizza is not Vegan

Ordered a pizza and only noticed after they started making it that the "vegan" crust had l-cystine in it. That's my family for not reading the fine print, but what happened next left a bad taste in my mouth.

Asked owner for the source of l-cystine, since it could be produced synthetically, and I was told that it's sourced from duck feathers and told that "most vegans don't mind".

I definitely minded that l-cystine was in the pizza dough and only ate the vegan cheese on top. Had to give this expensive pizza away to someone else.

Owner literally said that l-cystine comes from the feathers that naturally fall from the ducks during their normal everyday activities.

You and I both know that the feathers are plucked from ducks that have been killed for consumption.

He also bad-talked other vegan customers that he'd had previously.

Will not be going back

Cons: Pizza dough is not vegan

Outstanding Service

I absolutely love this place! Management is great and they have amazing vegan options. If this site would let me give a 5* I would, but it only allows up to 4* to partially vegan restaurants.

Pros: Delicious , Large menu, Management

Cons: None

Mediocre pizza

They are not taking covid serious by not requiring gloves or masks, even for the food runners. Yikes! The the owner is very vicious and mean with any criticism the restaurant receives. Joe(the country-owner) was always nice in person but you never really know people! He keeps deleting bad reviews and comments, so I figured I would put mine on here. All he had to do was make an apology and keep it moving. Not to mention my order has been wrong before and I received meat and cheese. Not good!

Pros: Only good because of be-hive products , Be-hive is still open, so I can make my own pizza

Cons: Exploits vegans , Bad and unclean practice , Rude owner who is very political and spiteful

Stay away

This was my favorite pizza place before, but unfortunately their stance on covid-19 has made me reconsider that. The owner does not comply with the Rutherford County mask mandate and, rather than walk it back and apologize for their actions, decided instead to double down and insult people who were concerned by their lack of mask-wearing. This place is only serving vegan food to cash in on the “trend.” Hard avoid.

Not good

Owner has been very rude and cussing people on social media just because they expressed concerns about the restaurant no mask policy ... they are not abiding by county mandates of required masks and they refuse to wear them. He made fun of COVID-19 and thinks it’s fake. Refuses to look at medical research regarding the mask protecting people from the spread of viruses and deletes all negative reviews so his numbers look good. He blocks anyone he doesn’t like on the Facebook page if they post their concern. He berates anyone on Google who leaves an honest negative review and has always done that we found out. If anyone doesn’t like the food he calls them a liar on google reviews.

Pros: None

Cons: Rude, Order is incorrect , Not safe food prep per masking requirements

Overrated and unsafe

Thin slices and big prices. They are not wearing masks, so if you are worried about Covid 19 this place is a no. Like i said the slices are thin and mediocre tasting at best. They also had some crazy rants on Facebook very unprofessional.

Cons: Overpriced , Little food, Taste like it came in a kit from Sam's

Don’t go here!!!

Owner is posting very hateful things and being extremely rude to customers. Food is not that good and my orders have never been correct but I’ve always been forgiving. Staff is not abiding with county mandates and not masking. We are seeing their true colors now after a year of supporting them. The owner is making fun of customers clothing and hair and blocking anyone on social media who leaves a negative review.

Pros: None

Cons: Rude, Incorrect order, Hateful

Revolutionary Vegan Pizza

We had a great experience! The owner told us all about the menu and was very friendly. This isn’t a vegan cheese with veggies kinda place. They have cheeseburger pizza, “meat” lovers pizza and others all with really cool names. It’s too bad that we are from out of town because I’d go here every weekend.

Pros: Huge Vegan Menu, Awesome, Friendly Staff, Best Vegan Pizza I’ve ever had.

Cons: None
