Cleveland Vegan

This spot never disappoints. We visit often—and even order takeout—because nowhere else in Cleveland comes close to offering vegan and gluten-free dishes as flavorful and satisfying as those from Cleveland Vegan. We’ve tried other vegan restaurants, but none compare when it comes to taste, portion size, and value. The fried “chicken” sandwich and burrito are my personal favorites—especially if you add the poutine fries inside the sandwich. It’s an absolute flavor bomb! The Big Breakfast Sandwich is also delicious, though it could use just a touch more flavor to really make it pop. And if you’re craving pancakes, do yourself a favor and try the chocolate apple pecan stack—there’s truly nothing like it. To top it off, the staff are always warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind. Bonnie and Lianna, in particular, are wonderful—sweet, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. Cleveland Vegan is easily one of our favorite spots in the city.

I could not be more pleased with this spot. I’ve been here 3 times now in the past several months. Everything is incredible. Their overnight oats, grilled cheese (best veggie filled tomato soup I’ve ever had, arguably best tomato soup I’ve ever had) their slammer bowl, lentil patties, my partner loves their breakfast burrito and their cinnamon roll is out of this world. I enjoy the grounding environment and warm and generous staff, I’d love to work there if they’re hiring that’s how much I love it! Try it out and you won’t be disappointed :)

Visited for dinner with the wife on a Thursday night, I usually get the nachos which are pretty good but this time I got the seitan french dip, and wow - it was excellent, particularly the mushroom(?) broth. I also got the Tofu BBQ wings and those were really good as well. Great experience, friendly service, dining area can get loud but it’s usually manageable, highly recommend.

Had a taste for a gyro and remembered where to get one. oh my it was so good, I wanted to take half of it home cause of the size but once I started eating it I ate it all up😉. I got my with a side of cashew cheese sauce and extra tzatziki sauce 🤤. I definitely will be back. So you should Run not Walk and get you one !!!

My second time here in one week. Delicious vegan and ingredient free (nut, dairy, gluten) foods and desserts! They also carry local products in a cooler and on a shelf in the dining area. Super friendly staff. Great vibe!

Best dining experience I’ve had all year! INCREDIBLE food, inviting atmosphere, friendly and prompt service. So impressed!! Loved the fry nachos and the Oreo milkshake was the best milkshake I’ve ever had. Can’t recommend enough!

The chorizo breakfast burrito was amazing!!! I will be stopping back through omw back home with some more goodies! Okay, so I came back the next day and baby!!! That breakfast bowl and that sausage gravy!!! 😋

Wife and I stopped to get a bite to eat prior to a comedy show we were seeing downtown. First visit. Restaurant is set up with a good atmosphere and a decent amount of seating. Staff was attentive and helpful. We got the nachos to start. These were excellent, we finished the whole plate. Wife decided to try the fried chicken sandwich with fries on the side. I had slammer bowl (brunch is served all day !). Wife liked the sandwich which i tried and concur. My bowl was very good as well !. Overall it was a quick stop but we will definitely be back if we get the opportunity.

Wonderful service and great Food. I had the Big Breakfast Sandwich and it was yummy! Knowing that ithe food is sourced and healthy was an extra bonus! The desserts are the best! Definitely try it if you have never stopped in!

Cute place! Server was very helpful and friendly, helped me decide what to order since everything looked good! Decided on the gyro and vanilla milkshake. Both delish. Gyro was massive! Enough for leftovers ,

We went to an event that was 100% vegan. I wasn't thrilled about eating mystery ingredients but went to the buffet with an open mind. I can say that the spinach/strawberry salad was delightful. As for the faux "chicken" Parmesan? It tasted as awful as it looked. One bite was too much. I didn't even bother with the pasta dish since It didn't look very unappetizing. They did have roasted potatoes that were very tasty. The dessert offerings looked pretty awful, but a tried a buckeye bar and a cookie. Both were dry, gritty and bland. Thank goodness for the salad and potatoes!

In the 7 years that I've lived in Cleveland, I always wanted to visit Cleveland Vegan. I'm glad that I finally visited Cleveland Vegan. I visited on a Sunday morning in early November 2024 with two friends, Leslie and Katie. We coincidentally all ordered the plain buttermilk pancakes ($6). We got one pancake each. The pancake was very delicious especially with syrup and butter which came with the pancake I added a side of shiitake bacon ($3.50). I thought I would be getting a decent amount of bacon but it was a super small dish (2-3 bites) which in my opinion, was expensive. This bacon was made out of mushrooms and I did not like the taste at all. It was also super salty. My two friends ordered a green juice which they both enjoyed. I'll certainly be back to try other breakfast and lunch options. **** GOAL of 150 reviews in 2024 - 112/150 total reviews in 2024 - 761 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 5 December 2024

I NEEEEEEEED to shoutout this salad oh my GOODNESS! I prefer this salad to ones with actual chicken (I'm a fair weather vegan don't judge haha) which is a testament to just how delicious it is. Don't skip adding that cutlet! And a HUGE portion for a decent price. Couldn't resist adding fries for the ultimate #girldinner and the chipotle Mayo add on makes it. All day long I had people swiping up on my Instagram story asking about this salad and where to get the salad. I told everyone to get it even if you aren't vegan or vegetarian! And had to shoutout my favorite cake, sorry for the horrible pic but how cute is she! Always a kind staff and a lovely earthy but modern aesthetic inside. Thanks as always, Cleveland Vegan!

My first time trying a vegan salad. Idk what kind of sorcery they put in this salad but HOLY SMOKES BATMAN! Every bite tasted fresh, and the "chicken" was warm and tender, the texture is softer than chicken but the flavor made up for it. I'm sold!

(4/5) The food here was absolutely delicious! I ordered corn chowder, nachos, fresh-pressed raspberry lemonade, a matcha latte with oat milk, grilled cheese with French fries, and steamed veggies -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared perfectly. My waitress was amazing -- friendly, attentive, and just overall a joy. She truly made my dining experience great once my order was in. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because it took about 20 minutes for anyone to come take my order, and I noticed a clear difference in how guests were checked in on. Caucasian guests around me were greeted and checked on right away without asking, while African American guests (the table behind me) had to flag down or call over waiters. We also overheard the severs say " make sure they pay " . But once my server took over, though, service was flawless. I'll definitely be back for the food and the warm hospitality my waitress provided -- she was perfect!

1st let me say I AM NOT VEGAN, but my wife is. So we alternate restaurants to accommodate her lifestyle. The service was friendly, the waiter was very patient and was very descriptive in explaining the menu options. The environment was very clean . I had one pancake and a coffee . The pancake didn't taste like anything. I am going to to assume that this is due to my own taste buds . Once I topped it with the organic maple syrup, the pancake tasted better. We would probably return to experiment another food selection.

I went to Cleveland Vegan in late December with my son. It is very clean and bright - very busy! We both got the Breakfast Burrito and it was great! Very tasty and hot. The server was sweet and helpful though the hostess had forgotten a few things she was supposed to do like get us water and silverware (we saw the next table get set up properly in this manner and it went much smoother for the server). We also got some lattes on the way out and they were delicious!

Great service, great food what more could you need or want. Also lots of parking available around the location. The inside is normal and there are outside seating options available as well. The menu is simple and has a good variety of options. The staff also know the menu well and are available to answer any questions. I tried the watermelon, mint and lime pressed juice and it was delicious. I also had the Caprese Toast which was delicious.

Tried something new today. The environment is cozy and pleasant. Nice array of options for breakfast and lunch. Everything they serve is vegan. I am not vegan. I am pretty committed to steak and chicken as part of my regular life. I'm also kind of a picky eater. And I don't typically love breakfast food. I mention all that to say....I wasn't exactly positioned to love the joint. And yet.... The menu was interesting and accessible to me. Portions are large. I tried the "buttermilk" pancake, shiitake "bacon" and carrot/orange/ginger cold pressed juice. Flavors on all three were great. And it was a very filling meal at a super-forgiving price point. The staff were very friendly. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

I visited Cleveland Vegan for my birthday and I cannot imagine a better way to celebrate the day. I got to eat lavishly at such an affordable price! The quality is fantastic, the quantity of food is generous, and the service was exceptional. I cannot wait to go back! Cleveland Vegan has a very nice atmosphere inside with plenty of space for groups or families to gather as well as intimate tables for a party of two. I love how much natural light comes into the business which makes taking food photos a breeze. I met up a friend and we ordered the potato skins, Lox Benedict, and Thai Rice Noodle Bowl. With tax our meal was $40. Coming from DC that is the steak of the century! I cannot believe how much food came to the table at such an affordable price point. The potato skins were phenomenal! The size of the potatoes was larger than I expected and they had the perfect balance of salt. The sour cream on top was exceptional and not only added a nice color contrast but also helped bring the savory flavors together. The Loc Benedict was the star of the show featuring the Yo Egg which has a runny yolk. I have been dying to try this vegan artistry and it did not disappoint. Additionally the lox were the right amount of fishy and I loved the hollandaise sauce on top of this meal. This Benedict tasted as good as I remember a real Eggs Benedict to taste and has the bonus of not harming any animals. How could brunch get any better than this? I also tried the Thai Rice Noodle Bowl which pretty much had the largest chunks of tofu I have ever seen! This meal was a nice refreshing light flavor to balance out some of the heavier menu items. I love how stocked with veggies this bowl was and how much tofu was offered. Thank you Cleveland Vegan for an amazing experience. I look forward to stopping by again when I come back to Cleveland. I must make my way through this menu with dishes that do not disappoint!

The food is stellar. As someone with a dairy allergy this is a major win. It transcends veganism. If you're an omnivore or someone who eats meat, it makes you forget it's vegan. The staff is bomb and can tell you what's in each dish. This IS the way, my guys. The tables are wood and have fresh flowers on them, and there are also other plants around the interior. There is a dessert display case. Very cute quality establishment. Will be returning, time and time again.

Some of the most amazing vegan food in Lakewood! I've been here several times and I'm blown away each time. Their chocolate chip pancakes are incredible, and so is their cake. The servers are always friendly and attentive, and the decor is so cute. I love trying their seasonal items, and would definitely return!

Although in the past I've tried many of their baked goods and some are really questionable in flavor and texture, they do have wonderful savory/non dessert vegan food options! Tempeh bacon here is excellent and high in protein. Plenty of vegan to go options too from meals to baked goods to multiple brands of no junk added cultured plant based (cashew) cheeses! Are they cheap? Absolutely not. They're rather expensive. BUT the quality of the food and inability to find vegan food of the is caliber and selection elsewhere around Cleveland make them totally worth the trek and price. Super helpful employees too who want to be sure you know ingredients and what you're getting which is super important for health nuts like myself. This place is never dead and always busy. There is almost always standing room only which attests to what a gem it is here. The sriracha lime slaw is super delicious too and not too sweet.

Love this place! Yummy food, friendly workers, cozy space and never a long wait. I've tried many of their dishes, but the thai rice noodle bowl and chorizo breakfast burrito are my favorites! Great baked goods as well.

My brother and I were visiting from Chicago. Stopped in for some take out. Great vibe. Great merch. Top quality meal. Recommend this place to anyone.

A solid vegan restaurant with good service, ambiance, and prices but could do better on some dishes. I recently went here with a party of three other people, and we were immediately able to get a table (Cleveland Vegan doesn't take reservations). Our service was fantastic and our server extremely helpful. Our group split the cheesy potato skins and the caprese toast. The cheesy potato skins had delicious "bacon" (shiitake mushrooms) but otherwise were just baked potatoes that needed more flavor. However, the caprese was delicious, with the tomatoes and balsamic glaze notably standing out. I split the Thai rice noodle bowl and the chorizo breakfast burrito with one other person. The rice noodle bowl was OK, although it needed more noodles and the peanut dressing was very salty. The chorizo breakfast burrito was disappointing, as it was so salty neither person who ate it could finish it. Cleveland Vegan could have added flavor with spices instead of salt. I would come back to Cleveland Vegan but order different things.

This was my first time here. I found it on a whim. I just happened to be in the neighborhood and pulled over to see what food was near me. I had just seen a mcdonalds, but didn't wish to go there. Upon entering, I was drawn to how airy the place was. I was greeted with a big smile by the person working the counter. I was tempted to get something from the freezer, but opted to try a bowl instead. I also opted for a cupcake... because why not?! I love the signage in this place. One sign read "Yes, everything is vegan". Another said, "this is our catering menu". This place does charge for cards, but yet another sign explains why. The bowl was delightful! I loved the crunchy and tangy and sweet flavors as they combined on my tongue. My cupcake was so yummy. I ate all my food in the car after I left. No crumbs! Can't wait to return!

I LOVE VEGGIE MEAT. That said, I wasn't expecting the specific kind of veggie meat that they used in the fried chicken sandwich...and I prefer a different kind...but overall still a good sandwich! I did like the crispy tofu tacos more tho - so many fun ingredients and so fresh tasting. London fog latte was quite sweet but was very soothing to my throat. My favorite dish was actually something my friend ordered...the brussel sprouts...it's so sad that white children don't like brussel sprouts But anyway, in terms of atmosphere, Cleveland Vegan is very sunny :) Unfortunately, I did not realize the potency of sun rays, so I sat at a window seat and was melted but I PERSEVERED and gobbled the food. Now that I think about it, servers were also very sunny.

The service staff was truly wonderful and very attentive. The food came quickly and was quite tasty. We loved the variety of dessert options, and even got some to go! The place has a very relaxed atmosphere, and perhaps felt more of a lunch place than dinner (for eat in). We saw *lots* of people picking up food to go and we were the only done-in customers this evening.

If you want to enjoy some delicious vegan food this is definitely the spot. Their food is tasty and delicious and sits amazing in your stomach, which I sometimes have issues with because of how delicate I have it. Definitely will be back for more although will try a bit earlier since it gets pretty packed at lunchtime on weekends (at least when we went) and had to wait for a bit. But it was so so worth it!

After over three years of being a loyal customer, I was saddened to have to update my review. During a recent dine-in visit, I was openly carrying a firearm, as I typically do, which was observed by a new waitress after she took our order. Subsequently, she began treating us differently, serving our food while neglecting to provide silverware and napkins. She did not return to check on us, and I was forced to request a fork. While I initially attributed this to an honest mistake, our subsequent attempt to revisit the establishment revealed newly posted signage stating "No Firearms." This led me to address the issue with the manager, resulting in an email to the owner, who falsely claimed that all staff members were uncomfortable. However, other employees had seen us dine in regularly without incident and should have reassured the new staff member of our regular patronage. I'm anyways polite, respectful & have a smile on my face!

Love this place! Ordered delivery yesterday and came in person today. I love the bacon ranch salad, which I had yesterday and today. The plain fries are not plain at all cuz that chipotle Mayo was smackin! The pasta was light yet filling. And the snickerdoodle blueberry lemon cookie with the ice cream was delicious! The ambiance is nice--they play music and the vibe is positive. It's a really cute setup and I'll definitely be back when I'm in Cleveland. There's plenty of street parking this Friday afternoon and you can pay coin or card.

It's been a while but I went back and was not disappointed! Vegan Benedict breakfast with runny tofu "eggs" and fall latte were delicious and filling. Lots of tasty-looking to go options and baked goods. Table service was prompt, friendly, and thoughtful.

Excellent food! Excellent service! Bright, hopping bistro with a community vibe. If you're a vegan doubter - this menu will change your mind. Sustainable, cruelty-free food that is D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S!!

The place was packed and our food -- a seitan gyro and breakfast potatoes with dipping cheese -- were amazing. Our golden lattes were great, too. Can't wait to go back.

Where's the tempeh?? So disappointed. There is now NO tempeh on the menu except tempeh bacon, instead there is a plethora (unfortunately) of seitan. Wake up! seitan is an ultra-processed food. It is nothing but highly process wheat flour. :( Anyone truly paying attention to nutrition knows that wheat gluten is terrible for most of us. Please bring back the tempeh bowl!

Yes, Everything is Vegan. That is the sign on the counter. It is comforting to see this when you walk in. You know you are getting a vegan meal with no questions asked. Not only is it vegan, but servers ask if anyone at the table has allergies. We went to Cleveland Vegan for brunch today and our visit went well. We were seated quickly. Due to COVID there is a QR code to scan at the table, but now they are offering paper menus also. Our drink order was taken promptly, as well as our food order. Our food was exactly as ordered and delicious as always. We ordered the Turkey Melt which was made with seiten and tempeh on sourdough. It was very filling and perfect without a side. The potatoes came with a side of homemade ranch. The breakfast sandwich was good and much like a typical breakfast sandwich but vegan. The maca latte was the best. It is a warm earthy drink. I get this over and over and it never gets old. The dining room was full, and there were several take out orders. The dining room is very loud when full. The staff is very friendly. Overall this was a good visit and I love supporting local establishments.

Their St Patty's Day specials were incredible and the Reuben (regular menu) is divine! Run, don't walk, to Cleveland Vegan!

Bar B Q Tofu Appetizer! So Good! Order them. every time I go and Plant based chicken! The balm

I really wanted to love Cleveland Vegan, but instead, I was rather disappointed. Very slow, indifferent service, mediocre food and steep prices. Maybe it was a fluke, based on the reviews? I just felt sad that I drove all the way across town for a sub-par experience. I ordered takeout and showed up on time. A lady at the desk said my food wasn't ready yet and walked away. It would have been helpful if she told me it would be another 20-25 minutes. Yup. I waited for more than 20 minutes before a different woman finally came out with my food and apologized. The first woman never apologized or communicated how long the wait would be. Considering it was a Wednesday night, the place wasn't busy and they had at least four people in the kitchen, I'm not sure what took so long. I started with the tofu wings. These were cold (probably because they were sitting out, waiting for my other dish) and very uninspired. Seriously. Cold, limp tofu with buffalo sauce. They weren't crispy and I wonder if they were cooked at all? They were edible, once I doused them in ranch. My entree was the fried chicken sandwich, which was listed as a popular item. It barely had any chipotle mayo and was very dry. I poured some of the leftover ranch on it. The slaw was crunchy, flavorless cabbage and onions, not exactly what I was expecting. There were a few limp pickle slices on the side, but not like the picture on the menu. I paid $27 for a lifeless, unfulfilling dinner. To top it off, the receipt asked if I wanted to leave an additional (second) tip. Considering I already tipped, before I knew how my experience would be, there was no way I was going to tip again... I'd like to maybe try coming here again, they seemed to have a lot of good looking desserts, but I wouldn't go out of my way to stop by a second time. Honestly, I feel bad writing this review. 3-stars is probably being generous, but hey, at least everything was vegan.

I was in Elyria visiting family over the weekend and was taken to breakfast at Cleveland Vegan! I didn't really want vegan, but the place got so many props online I didn't want to miss out. Nothing but the BEST pour moi! Cleveland Vegan is a quaint little Bakery/Cafe storefront spot in Lakewood. The clientele and staff were diverse and the atmosphere was chill. My cuzzo and I took a window bench seat, did some people-watching, and chatted it up. I had the Breakfast Sandwich (without the Kale) and a Strawberry Banana Smoothie! Both were quite yummy. The Cleveland Vegan menu has a little bit of everything - for a vegan. Food was yummy, but I doubt I'd make a bee-line back to it next time I'm in town.

After a morning of hiking all around Cuyahoga in the rain, we were in desperate need for some sustenance! We made our drive north to Lakewood, outside downtown Cleveland, to have lunch here at Cleveland Vegan. The space is warm and airy and they have a wonderful selection of coffee and vegan pastries at the counter. Their menu for cafe food is done through QR Code - I wish more restaurants did it this way! Everything here is - you guessed it - vegan and it was all delicious. We ordered some vegan tofu wings to start which come in either buffalo or bbq. We did Buffalo, which were spicy and tangy and the house made vegan ranch was good! And I'm not a ranch dressing person at all. For lunch I ordered the fried "chicken" sandwich which was HUGE. It was delicious though - it was a house-made patty that was friend but loaded with a yummy cabbage slaw and chipotle dressing. I only managed to eat half of it and took the rest to go. I wish they'd offer that with the Buffalo sauce because that would take it a whole new level of yum! On our way out we got some vegan cupcakes and cookies from the bakery display to go. 11/10 would recommend. Overall we were very happy with the friendly, attentive service; everyone was so nice and welcoming. The food was delicious and fairly priced and I will absolutely recommend this to vegan friends who are visiting the area!

This place exemplifies everything delightful about being vegan. The menu features such inventive recipes--the eggs benedict plate was something I've never seen done with vegan food before, and the presentation and flavor were so wonderful. The pesto tempeh was also flawless. The dessert/bakery selections were also gorgeous and delicious. The buckeye bar was outstanding!! In addition to great food, the staff were SO nice; they were super genuine, friendly, helpful, and attentive. The vibes were so great here!! I'm from out of state, and I'm dreaming of the day I find myself in Cleveland again to eat another meal here. If you're in town for a day and can only pick one place to eat, make it Cleveland Vegan. No question.

I've eaten here probably 4-5 times and it is consistently good each time. Most recently, I ordered the loaded fries, which is one of their seasonal specials, and the tofu tacos, which are always on the menu. I would rate the fries an 8/10. They were topped with jalapeños, corn, mushrooms, a crema sauce and feta. The vegan feta was spot on to the real thing. The tacos were a 9/10. They were so full of flavor and I loved the crispy tofu in the middle. I will say often their prices are a little steep for what you get, but the food has never disappointed me.

Update: stopped by for some sandwiches on the go. Got two sandwiches and one lemon bar for $34. The sandwiches were ok. Got the fried chicken which was very dry. Also got the gyro, which I think they used vanilla flavored vegan milk to make the sauce because it tasted like vanilla(I know because I have used vanilla soy milk to make vegan Mac n cheese, which I do not recommend). We got a pickle on the side but I felt for around $15 for a sandwich chips should be included. I understand sides are extra but chips are very inexpensive to include and would make it feel like more of a meal. I

Had a great Valentine's Day prix fix dinner. It was delicious and presentation was visually pleasing. Interesting manzanella (?) salad with squash and grapefruit combined. Crème brûlée was delicious. Risotto was ok (a bit too much salt) but I loved the "oysters" made of mushrooms. Wish they had offered a simple mocktail but all their regular drinks were available. We bought several desserts to take home to our kids-- cupcakes and lemon bars . We will definitely be back. Thank you Cleveland Vegan! I hope that they will host other special nights like this.

I tried Cleveland Vegan for the first time ever on St. Patrick's Day because I really wanted a Reuben. I was blown away by how good it was! The sandwich was perfection! The cabbage and noodles and also the slaw sides were just delicious. They were super busy but still prepared my carry out order perfectly and on time. I will be back to dine in for sure! Loved every bite!

I don't eat here often but when I do, I always love it. It has a nice clean interior that has a one part coffee shop, one part hippy vibe. Every time I've been here the service is friendly, helpful and efficient. Great vegan food. If I had to find something to complain about it would be the cost. It's comparable to all the places now but can add up.

Cleveland Vegan is a haven for mind-blowing vegan food and baked goods! I regularly bring non-vegan friends and they are amazed that the food is completely vegan. They are also very conscientious of other dietary restrictions which are clearly noted on the menu. They host a yearly four course Valentine's Day meal which was exceptional, our favorites were the cheese board, arancini, mushroom ravioli, and the pink champagne cake. They nicely decorated the tables with roses and candles for the event. The staff is very helpful and passionate about their food.

Stopped in to check this spot out for some coffee ended up staying to eat. I'm not even a vegetarian but it looked so appetizing. Fast and friendly service, best vegan bacon I've ever had on a blt avocado toast. Very fresh and flavorful. Lots of tasty choices to pick from and heat and eat meals ready to go in the fridge if you don't feel like dining in, clean and inviting atmosphere.

I love the food experience at Cleveland Vegan - whether it's breakfast, lunch, dinner, or dessert, I've never had anything at Cleveland Vegan I didn't enjoy. The remodel looks great, and the service is always excellent!

When I tell you that this is by far in my top 3 vegan spots in America....just wow! I had been going through it while staying with my mom at Cleveland clinic, and I desperately needed some vegan food - the type that feels like a hug, ya know? I took the car and came here on a gloomy afternoon, and sat alone at the window bar. The staff was so friendly. I ordered enough food for 3 people, and the BEST brown sugar oat milk latte imaginable. This was the first time in months that I had felt actual relaxation. I was so happy sitting there looking out the bright windows at passerby folks. The waitresses checked in on me multiple times, and I felt like I was there for hours just soaking it all in. I ended up buying Togo pastries and even a T-shirt. Genuinely, y'all were there for me in ways I can't explain. Thank you for a delicious meal and soft place to land for a bit.

We stopped on midway through a road trip when our bodies were craving vegetables. Parking was easy, and there was plentiful seating. Staff were super friendly and my wife and toddler and I all loved our food: the pesto tempeh sandwhich, loaded nachos, and grilled cheese. Food was fresh and flavorful. We also appreciated the clean and spacious gender neutral bathroom with a changing table. I wish we lived closer so we could visit again, but am so pleased we happened upon this great place.

Great food. Service can be good at times. Other times staff not as outgoing and or helpful. Great tranquil location with a nice and clean setting for breakfast lunch or dinner. Again quality food and an improving service that keeps us coming back since opening,

Solid place for vegan food in the Cleveland area! My boyfriend and I were recommended this place by a family member of his years ago and have been meaning to try it since then. We made a point to come here to pick up breakfast on our last day here and got a few things: the Southwest tofu scramble side, pumpkin cupcake, berry date bar, greens of paradise, and blueberry lemon breakfast smoothie. All items were freshly made and ready to go within a reasonable amount of time. We ate our food in the car and I was amazed at how delicious everything was! For the tofu scramble being a side, I thought the portion size was perfect. We both liked our smoothies and were impressed with their vegan baked goods. They also sell some salads and soups pre-made and ready to go by the register. All in all, this has convinced me to definitely make a point to eat here whenever we are back in Cleveland, especially in the Lakewood area. I would love to try the other drinks and entrees that they offer in the future!

Great place for an omnivore to try some tasty vegan chow! Recently I've been making a conscious effort to change my diet to 60-70 percent plant based to promote a healthier lifestyle for myself. So far it's been a challenge when eating out and wanting something American bistro style. Finding a good sandwich has been a struggle. Today I had the Fried Chicken Sandwich and was very satisfied. It's not real chicken of course, but none-the-less, it was a wonderful lunch. Not sure of what I wanted to try, the staffer at the counter was more than happy to go over menu items with me to select something he thought I would enjoy. Nice bakery and coffee items available as well. Want to feed your temple something healthy and good...try Cleveland Vegan.

Always a great meal or treat here! My fiancé and I stopped in for lunch yesterday and we were not disappointed. He's tried the vegan doughnuts and cupcakes here before, as I am allergic to dairy and like to indulge in a sweet treat once in awhile. But he's never eaten a meal here. I ordered the Thai Rice Noodle Bowl...it was amazing!!! The creamy peanut butter sauce had a little kick and was the perfect compliment to the cold rice noodles, cucumber, shredded carrots, green onions, lettuce and hot shiitake mushrooms and crispy tofu. It was a nice portion and I'd order it again in a heartbeat! My fiancé enjoyed it too. He ordered the Classic Rueben. I tried it and I'd definitely order that again too. The sandwich was savory and had a sweetness to it too. I also indulged in a cookies and cream doughnut...to die for!
