Olympic vegan restaurant! - Edit
This is actually my second visit. I had their Red Chili Jackfruit sandwich with their version of mac & cheese during my first visit. The sandwich was excellent but a bit too spicy. I loved their mac & cheese, so I walked several blocks to get that for my side with the Assyrian sub I ordered at other place earlier today. It was well worth the walk. This place has became my preferred vegan place in Olympia, although I don’t like going into the downtown.

Soul nourishing comfort food, a lovely reprieve and mandatory stop everytime we pass through Olympia. The rib plate, mac and cheese, dip, and cauliflower wings are all the best.

Outstanding - Edit
Went there a few weeks ago while passing through Olympia.
Read moreThey have a diverse menu, and I was split between a few different choices. I ended up getting the bbq soy curl and sharing a side of the chikn wings. We also got a few slices of cake to have later, which ended up being a great decision. Each slice of cake ended up being enough for 2 servings.
I don't make it to Olympia very often, but I definitely plan on going back some time while I'm traveling through.
Pros: Generous portions, Great food, Quick service

Outstanding vegan food with so many choices - Edit
The restaurant is very cute, but parking was a challenge, and there wasn't much outdoor dog-friendly seating, so we got our food as takeout and went to a nearby park with our dog. The portions were huge and meant we had multiple meals from it. The ribs were amazing, and so was the mac and cheese. The chicken sandwich was also excellent. They had great soft serve, too!

Amazing vegan junk/comfort food options - Edit
Highly recommend this place!! Love all the options, a lot of the menu is hearty American-style food but there’s also some fusion options and healthier Asian-style bowls etc. They have baked goods (!!!!) and milkshakes. I got the Chinese 5 spice breaded chicken sandwich with a side of Mac and cheese that was excellent, such good comfort food.

Phenomenal! - Edit
I got the Almost Famous Bowl which was stuffed with mashed potatoes, creamed corn, fried chickn wings, gravy, and cheeze sauce! It was so good! There was tons of delicious gravy. This is a must try on a cold day. It was to die for. The portions were huge I had plenty of leftovers for later. Everything here is vegan and everything looked and smelled really good. They also had pastry and dessert options. Highly recommend this place. It had a cute atmosphere also. 🙌✨️

Comfort food - Edit
Found street parking about a block away on a Sunday midday. Enjoyed the huge dish of spare rib plate with mashed potatoes, gravy, sautéed greens, and Mac & cheese. Was a lot of food!
Read moreI liked that they have a pay-it-forward option to pay for another person who could not afford a warm meal.
There is a clean restroom and lots of great shops nearby.

Loved it! - Edit
I had the au jus with a gluten free bun, side salad with ranch. It was fabulous, very delicious, and it feels great to be in a vegan only establishment. The staff kindly gave a needy person a healthful shake while I was there.

Pure chance - Edit
I had not been to Olympia before and was driving through downtown when I spotted this place. Not knowing what it was like, I asked them if they had any vegan options. The reply was "everything is vegan"! What a wonderful piece of luck. The main dish was great, the dessert delicious, so I went back a week later when I was in town again.

Great place to grab a quick bite - Edit
Clean, bright, cafeteria-vibes cafe centrally located in Olympia. The cajun chicken sandwich was, for me, an interesting experiment more than a definite success--the tofu-skins-as-burger thing was certainly novel, but overall pretty overpowered by the breading, and the flavors didn't really pop. Everything was very fresh! The dessert situation is pretty stellar, with multiple cakes, cookies, and bars that I'd love to come back for.

Nothing Wayside About It! Right down the center of the road! - Edit
Amazing, lovely, yummy, divine. Love this place. A must stop every time. My only complaint is that they did not exist when I went to school here, which is an unfair complaint but certainly after eating here, you could possibly imagine why I feel that way.

Yum! - Edit
Got the Cajun Chicn sandwich and the collard greens. Greens are a bit salty for my taste, but they are still quite good. Sandwich is a monster!

Omg good - Edit
Loved everything. I had the Dan Dan bowl. My kid: French dip. Other kid: tofu skin burger. Husband: red chili soy curls. We all tried each others food and it was all a HIT. Mac n cheese was amazing too. My daughter went back to buy herself another passion fruit cheesecake slice because she loved it so much and the slice we all shared as a fam wasn’t enough for her.
Read morePros: Jackfruit and soy curls on the menu, Wide variety, Kombucha in the fridge

Wow!! - Edit
My family loved the food here. We enjoyed the Buffalo cauliflower wings, potato balls, Arugula beetroot salad, and Mac n cheese. My kids were completely floored by how cheesy tasting the Mac n cheese was. For dessert they had some generous slices of carrot cake and chocolate cake. I saw they also offered ice cream and milkshakes (when available). My personal faves were the beetroot salad and Buffalo cauliflower wings. The batter was crispy and the Buffalo sauce was just spicy enough and delicious.
