Good choice if dining with omnis. - Edit
I ordered the vegan skillet because it was the only vegan option on the menu that didn't require some sort of modification. It was VERY tasty. Because it's been forever since I've had a good vegan pancake, I ordered one sourdough pancake as a side (no butter!). It was one of the best pancakes I've ever had. I also had a latte with oatmilk, and it was good.
Read moreThe menu states they have vegan egg, cheese, and sausage, but it doesn't state that items such as French toast or omelettes could be made vegan, so I'm not sure to what extent they are able use those items. It would be nice if they could accommodate so more options were available. To be fair, I didn't inquire with the servers. Although very efficient and professional, no one seemed really happy to be working there, so I was hesitant to make too many special requests.
If with other vegans, I'd probably try elsewhere, but if I'm with nonvegans, I'd certainly return.
Pros: Tasty vegan skillet, Location easy to access, Excellent sourdough pancakes
Cons: Limited options (maybe?), Staff a bit unfriendly (professional though!), Limited parking

Vegan skillet was good! - Edit
Got the vegan skillet and it was good! Wanted to try the vegan pancakes but it would have been too much food and I was the only vegan, so no one to share with lol. I was envious of some of the omni choices, so gave it three stars for lack of more vegan options. It’s a popular spot so expect a wait.

These Chicks make a good vegan skillet - Edit
We got the vegan skillet with all the fixings and a short stack of the sourdough pancakes with blueberries. Everything tasted great, the vegan skillet was awesome. There were pretty limited vegan options on the menu, but what they had was good.

Cons: Wish for more vegan options

Bad Food but Good Service - Edit
I went to two chicks recently with my girlfriend (omnivore) and we were both disappointed. I got the orange juice and sourdough pancakes, my juice was alright but a little bitter...the pancakes tho, yikes. They were unusually light and stuck to the roof of my mouth, and they had no real flavor just that weird texture. When we had ordered the waitress asked what sides we wanted including "hashbrowns". Turns out those hashbrowns are made with parmesan cheese. I took one bite and spit it out because I was disgusted and mad it wasn't made clear that there was cheese in the hashbrowns. You would think that me ordering my pancakes vegan would be enough to let her know that i wouldn't eat cheese either but oh well. My girlfriend then tried the hashbrowns and hated them and they usually eat cheese and such. I also got sick after eating there and recently found out that omnivores have also gotten sick eating there...Do not recommend, there are way better breakfast spots in town.

Vegan skillet - Edit
Not too many vegan options, they do have vegan cheese and vegan egg substitute. Also Gf bread (I didn’t but should have asked if the bread was vegan) Ordered the skillet and GF bread, they gave me their house made butter. I took some (it was yummy) but decided to ask exactly what it was. Reminder that your wait staff doesn’t think about things that seem logical to us!
Read moreVegan and GF options please? Would you like real butter with that? 🤣😞
Pros: Dish was tasty
Cons: Not many options for vegan.

Good breakfast! - Edit
The place gets very busy so call ahead to make a reservation, especially groups larger than 4. The prices are fair, the portions are fair, the food is great, and they have a full bar. Never been disappointed here!

Mediocre at best - Edit
Finally had a chance to eat here and I wasn't really impressed. I was attracted to the fact they have vegan options but little did I realize it sjust a boring egg and potato type of traditional American food joint. mind you, the food itself was OK but nothing that would compel me to return for round 2. their coffee was mediocre. in the end, I feel the price tag wasn't worth the quality of the food. disappointed that they don't offer any faux meat options. my review is based on my strict vegan diet. meat eaters might have a different opinion.
Read morefor contrast, my partner is not vegan nor vegetarian and also wasn't impressed with the quality of their food. felt it was much too ordinary fare.

Do not recommend - Edit
Update: I went to eat there again because a meat-eating friend wanted to. Her food was so awful she didn’t eat most of it. My food was equally bad. Again, the only option they had was jam for the bread. I got the veggie skillet, and it came cold. My friend tried it too and was shocked at how cold it was. The service was good and the waitress was friendly. I didn’t ask for her to heat up my food because my friend didn’t like her food and wanted to go eat elsewhere. My food was drenched in oil. I will not eat there again, even if my friends are wanting to. I REALLY wanted to like this place, but after two disappointing experiences in a row, I will not be going back.
Read moreOriginal post: There were maybe a handful of options for vegans. On the day I went, they only had two options available. The veggies platter I got was fairly delicious, nothing to write home about though. The place was out of vegan eggs too. My meat-eating friends weren’t that impressed with the quality. My waiter didn’t seem to understand veganism, and kept trying to offer me things with honey, dairy, or eggs in it. They also don’t have a vegan spread for the toast except jam. Since I’m trying to limit added sugars, it was disappointing to not have some kind of vegan butter or spread or something. I will probably not be going here again.
