Fraudulent pricing - Edit
(would have been 1 star, but Happy Cow won't allow it because they incorrectly think this is not a fully vegetarian restaurant)
Read moreThe cashier said I could select "any side" with my Bahn Mi (tofu sandwich), failing to warn that one choice had an upcharge of $2 (even though it was only $1 more in the sides menu). After switching to a choice without an upcharge, I noticed that the sandwich and coffee were EACH being charged at $1 higher than menu prices. At first he denied it, claiming it was tax until I showed that tax was shown separately. Then he admitted the prices were higher, but claimed he couldn't honor the listed menu prices. I asked him to call his manager to approve honoring the menu, but he said he didn't know how to reach them. FFS, if management is going to be unreachable, they need to give employees agency to make honorable decisions for the good of the business! He kept saying it wasn't his fault. I agree, but what difference does that make?!? He kept saying, "Don't worry, everything will be fixed", but he meant only that future customers would not experience my problems, not that he had ANY intention or agency to fix my problems right then and there. When I warned the cashier that I would be posting a negative review, he replied that they were accustomed to getting bad reviews. Wut?!? Was this guy trained at all in customer relations? I gave up and paid the fraudulent extra $2, partly with a $10 gift card and the remainder in with a $20 bill. Then I caught the cashier shortchanging me by $1. The receipt didn't even show the cash part of my payment in full! When I tasted my latte, it was icky sweet -- he failed to use UNSWEETENED vegan milk! At least it was good once he remade it correctly. The sandwich itself was soggy with way too much mayo. The kale salad was uninspired but fresh. Not only did this restaurant lose me as a future customer, I warned at least 10 of my fellow convention attendees to avoid this place. For the owners who were asleep in their freshman business classes, the bottom line is that their restaurant's attempt to cheat me out of a couple of bucks resulted in their losing HUNDREDS in revenue today and who knows how much more in the future because, evidently, they don't think bad reviews can be avoided. This bad review could have been avoided by simply acting honorable.
Pros: Unsweetened latte, Fresh kale, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Failed to honor menu prices, Made latte with sweetened malk, Employees lack agency to fix problems

Can’t wait to come back! - Edit
We came late afternoon on a Sunday and were helped/served promptly! Everyone in the restaurant was so friendly and we loved the space, well decorated and super cozy with great music. The food was delicious, we both had sandwiches as well as a latte and dessert. Looking forward to trying their brews next time! This is now a permanent stop on my list when passing through the area, grateful they are there!

Cozy and fresh - Edit
I'm from out of town and one of the best parts of traveling is experiencing new vegan restaurants! Even if they're not new to the area they're new to me.
Read moreThis place was super easy to find with street parking. I appreciate the hours on a Sunday because I figured most things would be closed but was pleasantly surprised to find a vegan restaurant open and near the Capitol building!
I ordered the bbq Mac and cheese chickn sandwich and they had a special that included a drink and cookie as well.
So I paired the sandwich with a ginger iced tea and a chocolate chip cookie.
The vibe / atmosphere is cute and casual. Contemporary tiles on the floor, a chalkboard wall, and tables with local zines on them.
The server was really helpful in helping me decide what would be the best on the menu for my appetite. Polite, respectful, and prompt as well.
The iced tea is refreshing and that kick of ginger is verbose!
The sandwich is delicious and messy haha. Eating it with a fork made more sense than with my hands. The flavor is great! The texture of the tofu "chicken" and crunchy outside was perfect!
Exactly what I was looking for and the perfect amount of food. The side salad was peppery and crisp. Every part of the meal hit the right notes.
10 out of 10
Pros: Flavor is great and perfect portions, Texture of food is fantastic, Kind people
Cons: Street Parking

Bland food - Edit
I wanted to love this place ☹️. It was really awkward ordering experience. The food was pretty bland overall. The chik’n was super bland… The breading was good but the tofu was sliced way too thick and needed a marinade. However the kale salad delicious. They had a cute set up with board games.

We ordered the Bahn Mi sandwich and the Eggplant Reuben, and a side of mac and cheese. Such a delicious, flavorful meal! The meals we ordered came with amazing strawberry lemonade and cookies for dessert. Yum! Yum!This restaurant was mentioned in the Hershey RV Show's local guide. So happy we took a motorcycle ride into Harrisburg.

Vegan Comfort Food Done Right in Harrisburg - Edit
I was visiting from Florida and tried The Vegetable Hunter in Harrisburg for the first time and wow what a treat! The atmosphere is lively yet cozy, and the staff made me feel welcome right away. The food was absolutely amazing, fresh, flavorful, and creative. I had the vegan cheesesteak with sweet potato fries, and both were fantastic. For dessert, the gingerbread cupcake was the perfect sweet ending: moist, spiced just right, and memorable. I also love that the menu is completely vegan, so I could order anything with confidence. It’s rare to find a place that delivers on both taste and vibe like this one does. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in town.

Amazing food! - Edit
I pass through Harrisburg every few months and always try to stop here. The BBQ chicken mac and cheese sandwich and the chickpea salad are my favorites on the menu and they seem to have some new options added frequently.

Pumpkin waffles! - Edit
loved the kitschy vibe: first floor is more coffee shop, second more gastro-pub. It was a bit warm inside. There are a ton of interesting options, and an onsite brewery at a vegan restaurant is a dream come true.
Read moreI really liked the English Invasion beer, which almost tastes like one of those alcoholic iced teas. Got the chicken and pumpkin waffles, which was an extremely solid effort. The "chicken" was clearly breaded tofu when seitan might have been a better option, but I left quite full and the bill was very reasonable.
Pros: cool vibe, lots of interesting options, also a brewery
Cons: a bit warm, service was fairly slow, meat alternatives might be limited

pretty good - Edit
I really like the chickn sandwiches. The pulled pork sandwich was pretty good, but I didn't like the pesto grilled cheese very much. They had a donut but it was just chocolate cake in the shape of a donut. The kale and chickpea salads are very good.

Even the sides are worth 5 stars. - Edit
Wide array of choices. Everything was very flavorful and well prepared. You will definitely need extra napkins with the Buffalo and blue cheese chicken sandwich. You can always wash your clothes. Any stains are worth it. Forgive the average photos of above average food. Very friendly service, too.

Fully vegan cafe and brewery. The Blackberry Lemonade is AMAZING. The cheesesteak was ok, but I’m from Philly so I’m picky. Would definitely come again.

Fantastic food! - Edit
This restaurant is lovely - beautiful interior and lovely spaces to eat - from outside to a more secluded upstairs bar with stunning artwork everywhere. The food was incredible - I’ve never had vegan chicken like that before (breaded tofu). I had a bowl with a variety of pickled veggies, lettuce, quinoa& more & Im still thinking about it a day later. Excellent food and wonderful atmosphere! Can’t wait to come back!
