Top rated in town for a reason

Great food with a diverse menu and friendly staff. It's really tucked behind the hotel, but it was well worth the search.

Amazing food. Worth visiting Nashville for this

This is an amazing cafe and you can tell they really care about their food. Some of the best comfort food I’ve ever had - vegan or otherwise. Fresh, hot, and delicious.

Great food!!

So happy to hear this place has gone fully vegan! Was there in 2019 and still think about the chili and corn bread I got there. Loved the service style, and unpretentious atmosphere. I went with my mom and her late husband, and we met a non vegan couple who were friends of theirs. Everyone enjoyed their food !

Absolutely Fantastic Food!

I took my mom and husband here (neither is veg) and they loved it as much as I did. We got to try the BBQ bowl, roasted roots bowl and the southern BBQ burger. All of it was fantastic! Highly recommend. The cats, pinto and lentil, are super cute too!

Pros: So many delicious options, Choices for everyone (kids and allergen menu), Generous portions on the bowls

Healthy and lots of variety

Not the kind of place I’d bring a close-minded omnivore, but awesome for vegans and allies. They have cafe cats outside, and lots of variety in terms of flavor profiles. Good vibes.

Cute and great restaurant!

This is a great restaraunt and 100% vegan. I am allergic to milk and eggs, and it’s an amazingly good restaraunt with a bunch of options. There is also a bunch of drink options. The root beer is very tasty.

Pros: Helpful staff , Nothing I don’t like that I’ve tried, Indoor and outdoor seating

Delicious n' Nutritious

Didn't know what to expect
coming in here but the vibes were great and all the food options sounded amazing. I opted for the ginger tahini tofu with quinoa and I was blown away. As someone who cooks WFPB at home, I appreciated the oil-free space and was so impressed with how tasty the food was. My family also thoroughly enjoyed their meal and didn't even notice it was oil free. The bowls are super filling and all-around a great experience I was not expecting driving through Nashville.

A staple

This place has it all: delicious hot counter with many many options, baked goods, beers, craft sodas, ice teas, snacks. And even two cats that roam the premises. The hot chicken potato bowl was absolute fire and made two portions for me. Wonderful crab cakes as well served with yummy slaw.

Vegan & oil-free gluten-free menu!

Been here multiple times when visiting Nashville. I dream about their no-bake oat, chocolate peanut butter bar! Ordered my main dishes from the oil-free menu: kale/collard greens, quinoa & lentil power bowl (bbq sauce on the side—too salty for me) and a mixed salad w/citrus dressing. Then splurged on the dessert and bought an extra one to take to my hotel for another day! Staff was so accommodating.

Pros: Oil-free menu, Gluten-free options , Wonderful staff

Cons: Too much salt in the dishes.

Delicious and filling vegan restaurant

Everything we've had here has been delicious and filling. Most of the time we stop here when in Nashville. Sunflower Cafe keeps us from trying other vegan restaurants because we like it so much. They have a variety of options including burgers, bowls, plates, sides, and some parfait-type desserts. Would highly recommend!

Pros: Cruelty-free, So many options, Delicious

Sunflower

Friendly staff and variable menu. Food was cafeteria style - already prepared before order. Atmosphere is small dining area but enough seating. Dining experience was good.

Delightful

Stopped here for to-go food while passing through town on a road trip, and it was so good that we came back by again on our way home! Lots of variety to choose from, delicious food and wonderful staff. They waited until we arrived to pick up our order to melt the cheese on our nachos so that it would still be hot and perfectly melty when we ate it. Overall a great experience.

Fully vegan, great spot

We are here twice during our one day trip to Nashville. The bakery is amazing. The desserts aren’t overly sweet and the variety is more than your basic cupcake. The meals are great too. So much variety and great portions.

Pros: Variety, 100% vegan , Friendly staff
