Cafe that makes me feel like i am back home in SF

This cafe is wonderful! all of the staff are volunteers, and the profit goes toward the local meditation center.

There are many different teas, juices (mainly from Arden's), and coffee drinks with vegan milks. There is a shop area where Malas, tshirts, jewerly and other goods are sold. the cafe food is good and fresh. Many items are either vegan, or can be veganized easily by asking to switch to Daiya cheese.

We go all the time, since is across the street from my office.

My Favorite Veggie restaurant!

I love this restaurant. I am a long-time vegan and love coming here by myself or with friends. I never worry about bringing people who eat differently than me because the menu is so accomodating and the food tasty and delicious. The atmosphere is very peaceful and sentient; anyone would feel comfortable here. The wait staff are all volunteers and make you feel right at home. I have ALWAYS had a good experience and meal here. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Pros: Excellent food, great value, nice atmosphere

Cons: none

Great breakfast!

My husband and I met a friend here for breakfast, and it was very good. I ordered Vegan Cranberry-Orange Pancakes, which were delicious. My husband ordered a tofu scramble, which he really liked - although he wished it had a bit more seasoning. The service was great - they let us stay past closing since we were so caught up in conversation. Wish we would have had room to try a dessert item, but we were stuffed! Loved eating upstairs, it was a nice low-key atmosphere.

Pros: Upstairs dining, Pancakes

Cons: A bit pricey, Hard to see location from street

Love this place

I love this place, but I rarely get out here as it's a long way away from where I live. All of the staff (mostly volunteers) is friendly, the food is amazing, and the atmosphere is real laid back. World Peace Cafe is a great lunch spot!

Pros: Delicious, Friendly, Atmosphere

Oh My Goodness!

The Reuben Sandwich has become my litmus test for veggie restaurants. So at WPC I i ordered a Reuben (which came with a soup), and a slice of Chocolate cake.

Let's start with the food. FABU! The Reuben was great and the soup was heartily filled with goodness. The cake slice proportion was nice and large. And the taste was so good that now I'm going to go back and demand to see the ingredients to make sure it's truly vegan. It's that good!

Last thoughts are on how nicely decorated the interior is. Well done team WPC!

Pros: price, taste, proportions

Kind People, Wonderful Food!

We showed up about 10 minutes before closing & they were very welcoming (something most restaurants will give you an attitude about). The food was wholesome and delicious! I highly recommend!

This place is beautiful, the food is great, and the staff is greatly appreciated as most are volunteers. They also offer a lot of social activities on certain nights.

Pros: Beautiful ambiance, Healthy cuisine, Health-conscience business practices

Eh.

This restaurant is adorable. It's definitely a pretty, atmospheric place to sit and eat. The food, however, left me disappointed. I ordered the vegan pancakes and they were not very... pancakey. They were a gross mushy texture and, I'm sorry, but what are pancakes without a big ole plop of vegan butter on them? The service was friendly though, and my husband liked his food (he got a fritata).

Great food and atmosphere

Peace Café lives up to it's name! It is a peaceful retreat for sure. I had the sunshine salad and some tea and loved it. I sat upstairs which has windows on both sides of the building making it very bright. They also have free wireless internet. I'd visit them regularly if I lived nearby! I had a little bit of trouble finding it, so be sure to take good directions with you.

Pros: great food, great people, great light filled atmosphere

World Peace

This is my favorite vegetarian restaurant! The atomosphere is wonderful, the people who work there are always pleasant and the food is wonderful. They have several vegan options and the World Peace Burger is excellent and vegan. They're open for breakfast, which is great. They're closed on Mondays.

Pros: Food, People who work there

Outstanding Atmosphere, Unforgettable Food

Relatively new restaurant to the Sandy Spings area. Beautiful, serene atmosphere. Created and operated by a local Kadampa Buddhist Sangha, the staff are friendly, serene, & polite. Food never fails to please. The Peace Burger is by far the absolute BEST vegetarian burger I have EVER eaten! In fact... everything is delightful! Great place for Brunch or Lunch during the week. Dinner only served on Friday & Saturday nights.

Pros: Clean, serene atmosphere, EXCELLENT Food, Friendly, helpful, staff
