Loved it! Had the chicken parm sandwich and can’t wait to go back and try more of their menu. Also, the croissant was so good! I think one of the best tasting vegan croissants I’ve had. I also liked I purchased some deli “meats” for home.

So excited about this place! Delicious coffee, beautiful pastries, and vegan & plant-based cheeses and meats galore. The inside is really cute with a number of tables and they also have a few tables outside. The coffee is delicious - we got a soy mocha and oat cappuccino but would love to come back and try their multiple specialty flavors, including campfire s’mores. The chocolate chip cookie croissant was amazing! I will definitely be back to try their savory food and more pastries. Very excited to have another 100% vegan place in Brooklyn.

My daughter and I went for lunch. The food was amazing! The spicy pasta and meatballs and grilled cheese was delicious! My daughter loved the pasta and her chickn Ceasar wrap. I was drooling watching the woman next to us eat her meatball hero. We took some dessert home. The staff were really friendly and helpful. I suggested they sell their tomato sauce. I can’t wait to go back to try more food.

An excellent hidden gem. The atmosphere here is incredible and the steak sandwich is to die for. Doesn't matter if you're vegan or not, the flavor is superb

Am I vegan? No. Did i order the Meatball Parm sub on doordash not knowing it was vegan? Yes. Did i absolutely destroy the sub like there was no tomorrow? Hells yes. Absurdly delicious and after reading these reviews, i have my eye on the mac & cheese next. The Chai Latte was well spiced & i adore the cup art. Can't wait to check out the in store vibe soon because "plant based butcher shop" is a must see. Also Garden… Carver?! love the play on words!

My new favorite café. Staff is super nice and the store always has so many interesting products if you’re looking for items that are vegan or just have cleaner ingredients. I ordered the hot apple cider (delicious) as well as a cinnamon roll from the pastry bar to stay. I didn’t except it to be warmed up but it was and that was a nice surprise that made my experience even better. Will definitely be coming back more just to try out other items on their menu.

bright / pretty new spot with an exceptionally good bbq chicken sandwich. smash burger is also great. the owner Perry seems like a chill guy, the staff are all friendly / enthusiastic about their products, and i will definitely be returning (often).

Everything was amazing. My husband and I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the friendly staff. Delicious matcha latte. I had a cookie dough croissant that was out of this world delicious - pure perfection!

This is my new favorite vegan spot in Williamsburg! The music instantly transported me back to France. The service was excellent, the food was absolutely delicious, and I loved the decor--both inside and out!

When I first walked in, I thought I was in the wrong place--it looked just like a butcher shop. As I was about to leave, I realized that all the sausages and cheeses were vegan. Intrigued, I quickly turned around to check out the menu. The vegan mac and cheese is the best I've ever had--though not to be mistaken with Kraft. Thick, doughy noodles and a cheesy cashew sauce elevate it to a proper feast. The chicken Caesar wrap was delicious and healthy, featuring a great vegan dressing that captures the fresh garlic and creamy texture you want in a good Caesar. It was truly a salad stuffed into a tight wrap with plenty of grilled vegan chicken. The place has a very cute vibe, friendly staff, and there's nice people-watching from the outdoor seating. Wish I lived closer so I could come back more often.

I'm surprised there are only 52 reviews for this place on yelp! It's been there on grand street for quite some time and I finally got around to ordering some take out. The Mac and cheese lived up to the hype and so did the chicken Caesar wrap. The Mac and cheese could have been heavier on the bread crumbs and the wrap could have used more Caesar. Maybe that's just me, but this certainly won't stop me from ordering again. My partner had the Italian hero and I thought the texture was so unique. think all of this it best eaten immediately though, I ate part of my wrap a bit later and it wasn't as good cold! I didn't eat inside the restaurant but plan to do so at some point. Food was delivered very quickly and in one piece!

Was in Williamsburg and wanted a delicious light bites cafe style. The menu was yummy and the options were exactly what you needed to find at a spot like this. They offer coffee, desserts, delicious pantry items that are heavenly for your cheeze board cravings. I tried the chicken Cesar salad, Mac and cheese(cashew cheese), the steak sandwich and the meatball sub I was really hungry and wanted to try all the options which me and my friends all split and stayed stuffed! The outdoor seating was beautiful it was too cold to hang outside but in the spring summer I can only imagine how lovely it is. Great spot everyone paid around $30 and under which is ok for something like this. Also side note it is self seating and you order at the register and then food comes to you.

I love the food, it's crazy how delicious and meaty the steak sandwich tastes. BUT despite how often I eat at this establishment I feel super uncomfortable by the staff and ambiance. Most of the staff are white people that are polite but not very friendly, helpful or welcoming. I hardly ever see any other people of color here and it's concerning.

So incredibly cute in here. I loved the unique flavors and had a fantastic pistachio vanilla cortado. The barista was kind enough to custom make the cortado flavored even though it wasn't on the menu. She also gave a great recommendation for the local kombucha and it did not disappoint.

i love this place and make a point to come here anytime i'm in town. all the food is flavourful and delicious but if i had one suggestion it would be to add a lil salt and pepper to the chix caesar wrap. it's a bit bland compared to everything else on the menu and yes i can add my own but why disrupt the structural integrity of the wrap when y'all could "season" it up in house ?

Incredible vegan meats, which make incredible vegan sandwiches. My wife & I ordered "the best vegan steak sandwich" ($18 plus tax) to split, which was pretty huge. The product they use for the "steak" is pretty incredible, tearing like real beef brisket, and marinated nicely, served with chimichurri, on fresh white, sesame seed-coated bread. Large portion and just delicious. Awesome spot.

I came here with a friend for coffee on a Thursday afternoon. I got an iced americano, which was good. My friend had one of the cookie croissants, which was delicious. Small but cute cafe. I felt like it was more of a place where you would meet up with a friend, rather than somewhere you would go to work or hang out alone.

This place is super cozy! The meatball sub is so flavorful and the bread is amazing, cheeseburger is also great - specially love the toasted vanilla latte and also the banana cake!! Highly recommend if you are vegan or are trying to cut out meat/dairy :)

Place is ok decor is nice , sandwhiches like meat ball parm , steak it was good but nothing to die for , customer service was good the young lady in the front looks swarmed with so much work that she gives a order and hurry up feeling , not judging anyone based on one experience every one has days just be mindful (establishent ) reading this its a turn off when treated like hurry up already lol

Amazing taste with lots of options. Lucky to have %100 vegan place in Williamsburg. All foods are tasty, service is fast. Their deli and dairy free products are so tasty. One of my fav spot for lunch

This is a cute little shop that has both indoor and outdoor seating. The staff member was nice but it would be helpful if they had some type of bell or something when the staff are in the back just so they know when customers are out and ready to order. The sandwiches aren't bad but overpriced in my opinion. I was especially disappointed since I ordered the Italian HERO sub and it is supposed to come both turkey and roast beef but only was served with one because they ran out of the other yet they did not bother to mention that at all when I ordered or when I was given the sandwich. It is definitely a pet peeve of mine when restaurants do this and definitely decreases the value for me. For the chicken parm they do put the sauce on the side which is nice so you can choose how sauces you want it to be.

I went here a while ago and the food was amazing. Steak like real steak (and as a vegan i don't even miss steak but i do miss this sandwich) The max and cheese was to die for and the general vibe was intimate and cute and just very lovely. the staff were also super sweet :)

Everything I've tried from Garden Carver has been SO good! The steak sandwich and chicken caesar salad wrap are my current favorites, but all the sandwiches are great. Delivery is super quick and always packaged well. Even my non-vegan coworkers order lunch from this place!

Even though NYC is vast and filled with tons of options- we are missing a vegan butcher shop. Luckily for vegans it finally came! Upon entering it's so nicely decorated and it's really cute because it doesn't scream "butcher shop" but the complete opposite since it's completely adorned in flowers and after you get past the door there's tons of coffee and drink options that cater to a much more "delicate audience than a butcher shop's typical audience" I am a meat eater but my partner is not so we've been looking for a place with really great food and safe to say after having their meatball sub and the garlic chili noodles I am so impressed. The meatball sub actually taste like real meatballs. (I am an avid meatball eater) the garlic chili noodles were pretty authentic (a little more on the sweet side) to Asian cuisine I'm used to. For that I was already impressed they got both of these down. All of their food is sort of a fusion from like western (rigatoni+meatballs, charcuterie board, Nashville hot chicken sandwich, etc) to eastern / Asian (stir fry noodles, orange chicken). I just really appreciate that because that's all my partner ever wants to eat. I love that you can also get anything for the most part gluten free. All of the items that you can't find normally in a vegan restaurant will be here like fig salami, vegan cheeses made with different flavors from masala to truffle, amazing looking baguettes, your personal vegan meatloaf for friends/thanksgiving, fake lox and smoked ribs for a vegan cookout! To top it all off, the service here is really good and the people behind the counter was so nice and just made our time really quick and easy! I definitely will be back here to try their other items and honestly may become a new regular.

Cute ambiance, and really nice jazz music playing in the background. Was able to order fast (Meatball Hero is so yummy! Thanks for the recommendation! It is messy to eat but so worth it!). I was able to eat in peace and even work a little on my laptop. Thanks for the chill vibes and delicious vegan food. Will come again!

Always down to check out new vegan treats. Stopped by around noon - I read about the meatball hero so I picked up one of those and a breakfast croissant sandwich per the recommendation of the person working there. I thought the meatball hero was going to be the clear winner but actually I enjoyed the croissant sandwich a little bit more. Don't get me wrong, the meatballs themselves were quite tasty but the bread was a bit soggy which made the whole thing hard to eat. I was expecting the bread to be fresh and crispy, but I was let down here. The croissant was a very solid choice. I would be down to come back and try a few other items another time. There's some indoor/outdoor seating for smaller groups.

This is the spot that was so good it deserves my first and only yelp review. The meatball hero and cheesecake were so good I could cry.

Love this place with so many tasty vegan treats. This time I had a biscuit and blueberry lemonade, so good! I love the chilli noodles the most.

Their breakfast sand-which was so good! And I'd come back just to have the chocolate chip cookie again, if you want to try delicious plant based food give this place a try.

This beautiful storefront kept on catching my eye. I would pass it on my way around Williamsburg. One day I was shopping nearby and decided to finally pop in. GC 's interior decor is just as love as it's exterior. It's rustic and clean look makes it feel like you have stepped away from the city. I picked up my order for a meatball sub and was impressed by how similar it compared to a meat based one. I am definitely coming back to try the best smashburger and I want to try their charcuterie platter as well.

Delicious Nutella latte and cinnamon bun. Nice atmosphere. Want to come back and try their food.

Great food, great vibe. Had a smashburger and peach iced tea, both awesome! The staff was pleasant and the food came out quickly

I was expecting the chicken parm to be on a hero, i should have asked. It was good but not worth the price. $18 w tip. At least give some chips or greens on the side. Im stull Hungry and broke. Vspot has the best vegan chicken parm, followed by vinnies in Brooklyn. Three brothers on Long Island is THE best. That Pizza Place on LI good too. San remo in queens is also worth a mention.

This spot it sooo fantastic vegan or not, you should give it a try. The staff is sweet and helpful with your selections. From the bakery and deli items I've had everything's been really good. But the pre made foods are really the star of the show. Anything with theirred saw is impeccable. I would recommend the meatball sub or the rigtoni with meatballs. Both absolutely perfect and worth coming back for!

Excellent food, coffee, and service. Lovely place to have a meal or dessert. Will definitely come back!

This is HANDS down my favorite spot in Williamsburg! So delicious, filling and a great place to do work! You must come here and get the breakfast croissant or the meatball hero. The best!!!

Excellent mint chocolate chips latte ice coffee and a delicious vegan chocolate chips muffin. Nice place for home office.

You do NOT need to eat vegan to enjoy the best vegan meatball sub you've ever had. It is a must! Somehow deliciously filling & also light on the belly. Absolutely recommend to EVERYONE.

i never ever leave reviews but YOU GUYS. this is hands down the best vegan meat i have ever had in my life, and i have been vegan for over 10 years!! that BBQ chicken sandwich hits in ways that words simply cannot do justice. the mac and cheese is absolutely delectable. cannot wait to try everything else on the menu!!

As a dairy free person this place is a god send!! I haven't had a croissant or cinnamon roll in so long, so I was more than thrilled to randomly stumble across this place and their wonderful dairy free pastries. My only complaint is that I can't try everything at once! I would highly recommend this eating stopping by Garden Carver while you enjoy the shops of Greenpoint

Awesome little vegan restaurant and deli. Includes a sandwich menu, salads, coffee, charcuterie board options etc. Tried the breakfast sandwich and grilled cheese. Both delicious options. Also has a decent size seating area. Friendly staff and chilled vibe.

Yummy and cozy place. Perfect for a date or solo coffee session after a nice walk. Great food/coffee options. Friendly service and great space to lounge.

Such a great asset to the neighborhood! Fantastic, homemade comfort food. Highlights include the meatball sub (read about it on Eater!), smashburger, and the hot chicken sandwich! Also great salads, cheese plates, fig salami (which I'd never had before but was awesome) and delicious wine and coffee. The blueberry lavender latte is my new favorite drink. The ambiance is beautiful with flowers everywhere. The service is great and the employees seem genuinely happy to be there!

This is a neighborhood gem! You can't miss this lovely spot on Grand, with it's thoughtful and lovely decor (the flowers will draw you in!). The wonderful hospitality, the incredible menu (hello smashburger, spicy rig with meatballs and that new nashville hot chicken sandwich...they even do a beautiful charcuterie board as well as bfast sandwiches), and the lip-smacking beverages will keep you coming back for more. Always enjoy peeping their selection of vegan salamis and cheeses as well as other selections of plant-based snacks that are hard to find anywhere else in the neighborhood. For a tasty breakfast, lunch or romantic dinner outside, I can't recommend GC enough!

A truly excellent faux chicken parm sandwich, and the faux chicken Caesar wrap was pretty good. Cute aesthetic and quick service.

Such a good croissant sandwich! Egg and herbs and impossible sausage. Yummy. I love the vibe in here- relaxing and upbeat. #Breakfast Sandwich on Croissant #gardencarver #williamsburg

Best meatball Hero I have ever had. And vegan too. Lovely staff and a great oasis of tasty and healthy food.

I did not dine in but they had a few seats if you want to eat there. I tried the Meatball Hero ($14) which I loved a lot! I will definitely go there again to try other options. After you eat your sandwich, you can visit Martha's Country Bakery (by 1-2 mins walking distance) to eat some vegan cakes too.

Their vegan meatball sub was unreal. The flavors were great, the bread was thick and crunchy, and and I could not tell it was vegan at all. 10/10

I ordered a chicken Parmesan sandwich and it was literally a chicken cutlet and the tiniest amount of vegan cheese on a toasted hamburger bun. They didn't put anything else in the sandwich, and it was 15$. I also got a French toast muffin thinking it would be an actual muffin. Instead it was the crusts of bread, pan fried with vegan butter and barely any syrup all squished together into a muffin liner. My partner ordered the rigatoni and we took it to the park, but by the time we got there, the rigatoni was ice cold. The park is only a 10 minute walk away, so either they did not warm it up well enough or the pasta was not freshly made. The service was slow, and there was only one other customer there. The ambiance was cute, but that's the only good thing about this place. I would go again but only to get a latte and take pictures.

This is a new vegan cafe/butcher shop in Williamsburg. I went there for the breakfast sandwich and it didn't disappoint! It's egg, sausage, and cheese on a croissant, with caramelized onions on top (which was a really tasty addition). I also got some pastries that were good, especially the chocolate almond croissant! The space is super cute and CLEAN inside and there are a few tables out front, which are nice too. It's set up to not feel like you're eating in the middle of the sidewalk in NYC. I sat outside on a nice day and enjoyed it. I want to go back and try their meatball hero, cheeses in the deli case, and smash burger. They are super friendly, have great service and it's just a cool, chill place to hang out and grab good food.

Love the selection of deli "meats and "cheeses." The owner is super friendly too. Picking up my thanksgiving turkey soon!

Incredible Vegan sandwiches. Bread was soft and fluffy! I have a hard time chewing most sandwiches and I could chew these with no problem. There was so much flavor! We got the meatball hero (the meatballs were quite generous and the sauce and the Italian hero and both were delicious. Next time will try the charcuterie which also looked amazing. Prices were very fair for portion sizes and I was full for hours after!

The service was excellent and so was the food! Love to have a new vegan spot nearby.

Ordered matcha latte - super watered down, very grainy bitter texture, barely Luke warm.
