Go early if you want a full selection!

I live within walking distance to Sweetpea, and it's dangerous. I have really enjoyed trying a variety of their baked goods- my favorites so far are the "ring" pastries and croissants. It's one of those places where I do a double take to make sure it's all vegan!

I've gone for weekend breakfast twice, and it's a nice selection. The waffles? WOW!

They also have a good selection of GF items!

Please mail me an almond croissant

Almond croissants are my absolute favorite baked good and this one was hands down the best. Big, fluffy, fresh, sweet (but not too sweet), lightly dusted with powdered sugar… I’m literally salivating reminiscing about it. Run, don’t walk to Sweetpea. You’ll be very glad you did.

Pros: Almond croissant

Cons: When they run out of almond croissants

Options

We stopped in to try it as one of the vegan bakery options. Honestly, not memorable. I could barely remember what the inside looked like. I ordered a sweet chai latte and the strawberry cheesecake… the latte was a no go but the cheesecake was good. We stopped in the afternoon so we had virtually no other pastry to choose from.

I got three sandwiches and ate 2 before I left

I came in thinking I’d get two sandwiches talked to a cook and got 3 and pastries and my friend got something. Mine was so good I wish I got more

Long-standing portland institution

This place has been around for a long time and is a Portland vegan institution! Really great sandwiches and really great baked goods! Reasonable prices.

Excellent

Loved this place so much that I went three times in two weeks with various groups of veg/omni people. The scone was the best I’ve ever had and the chocolate chip cookie was the best my omni daughter has ever had. I would also recommend the the danish and cappuccino. They have breakfast/lunch options that look amazing as well… I’ll be back for one of those!

A real gem!

Loved this place! Got a portlander breakfast (tofu scramble, tempeh bacon, waffle with syrup). Well worth the price. Huge portions, good vibes. Pastries looked amazing! They also sell boxes of day-old pastries for cheap.

So much to try

Croissants, pan au chocolate, danishes, and all the wonderful baked things sold out before you can even make it to the counter. Savory breakfast scrambles, satisfying lunch sandwiches, always good coffee. I’ve eaten some wonderful things, and some pretty good things, occasionally something strange. Don’t let that deter you, it’s just my opinion. Overall, I recommend checking out Sweetpea, you’ll probably enjoy it!

Might have ordered the wrong thing

We came for coffee and D decided to try a pastry. He said the pain au chocolat was too heavy and dense. He said he would come back and try something else. I’d be interested in trying something savory from the menu. The coffee was good!

Pros: All vegan, savory options too!, Good coffee

Vegan Pit Spot in PDX

Haven’t been for quite some time, happy to find it thriving. It’s a welcoming coffee shop offering food options, all vegan of course.

The hot tea was delicious and so was the pain au chocolat, however this girl isn’t huge on chocolate. I liked the powdered sugar on top, the rest was too much chocolate for me.

Would recommend to others in the area - vegan mini mall is a must! Pastries are generous and vibe is unpretentious. They were playing raver beats at 10AM.

FYI, bathroom is very punk/grunge.

Pros: All Vegan/Plant-Based Establishment, Located Near Other Vegan Shops, Friendly Service and Open Area

Cons: Very Industrial Vibe

This is what a cold wet PNW day needs

Rachel ordered the maple waffle and two strawberry danishes for us to share. I ordered the Portlander, I would highly recommend. Although I definitely could have taken a nap after lunch.

Pros: Menu, Portion size, Friendly staff

Legendary!

First of all, the Breakfast Sammie was the best vegan breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had, hands down, and I’ve eaten many. It’s huge and everything about it is perfect: the scrambled tofu is super flavorful & saucy, the roll was fresh, the tempeh bacon is amazing & they do not skimp. There were slices of tempeh that covered the whole thing. So nice we ordered it twice on our short trip to Portland.
We also had multiple pastries. Sweetpea has vegan danishes, which are pretty rare to find, as well as scones, croissants and muffins. Everything we had was fantastic. Believe the hype!

Just wow

This place was incredible! I am not a breakfast person and this was still one of the best places I’ve ever tried. I tried the Breakfast Sammie, Turtle Power sandwich, Caesar salad, Raspberry Croissant, Cinnamon Roll and the Chai latte. The Croissant was a bit much for me, but my partner liked it. The chai tasted a little like water, but was still okay. Otherwise, everything was incredible. The vibe is cute and queer friendly. 🌈

Pros: Great food, Queer friendly

Cons: They didn’t have the bread we paid for, The staff was impatient

Great pastries and coffee

We had a matcha macadamia ring, a croissant stuffed with scallion bacon cream cheese, and soy lattes. The matcha ring was the highlight, and the lattes were very good. The croissant was good too, although it was more of the soft kind rather than crispy/flaky (maybe because it had cream cheese inside). The shop inside was cute, and they allowed our dog inside in his stroller.

Pros: Great pastries, Great lattes, Cute interior

Loved my BLT

Great place for breakfast, lunch or coffee and a pastry. BLT was amazing and the peach & raspberry strudel was exceptionally flaky!

Good food, friendly service

Not quite as many pastry options as I'd hoped for from the name, but still a dozen or so, along with coffee and some savory dishes. I had an ube cheesecake muffin that was tasty but very dense - definitely needed the whipped cream on top to lighten it.

The dining area is basic, somewhat industrial, and a bit on the loud side. Very friendly service, though, and the food and coffee were good.

Pros: Friendly staff, Decent number of options

Cons: Somewhat industrial decor

Good but maybe overrated

Came here after hearing many raving reviews about the tofu scramble.
It was good but tbh I didn’t think it was that good. Perhaps I have a different idea of what makes a good tofu scramble- this one tasted a bit more like a dry scrambled omelette with a kind of smokey and gritty flavour, it was interesting but I prefer ones that are silkier.

Also had the pastrami/sauerkraut toastie which was really good.
Baked treats in the cabinet looked amazing too, wish I tried some!

Pros: All vegan , Gf options

Cons: Served salad dressing in little disposable cups

Everything is good!

Everything I have tried is good, it is a bakery that has some of the most delicious baked goods around. I particularly love the pizza croissant and tofu scramble croissant. I would name everything but you get the point by now. I recommend everyone to go if you have not yet, you wont regret it.

Pros: Lots of options, Pizza croissant , Serves food
