Poyo + The Sprout Restaurant

Wow wow wow! We absolutely *loved* this place. As vegans, it was honestly the BEST dining experience we’ve had since visiting Newfoundland over the last ten days! From the absolutely delicious food, incredible atmosphere / music & friendly staff - we were not disappointed to say the least. I’ve got it starred for our next visit! Can’t recommend stopping by here enough. You won’t regret it! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Some of the best vegan food I have ever eaten! They make their own cashew-based vegan cheese. Flavours of the marinated tofu sandwich are yum. Some flavour of umami and hummus. The tacos are made with a neat chewy skin... I've eaten something similar but I can't name it. It's way better than a traditional tortilla. The avocado taco was good. The CHKN taco was good too. Be careful with the buffalo sauce; it's got tang and heat.

The food was really good. I was surprised by the size of the portions to be honest. The service was pretty good too. They do things a bit differently here, so it was nice for a change. I would definitely recommend if you want vegan food!

The Buffalo "chickn" taco made with tofu is AMAZING. I'm from Nova Scotia and travel for work often. I make sure to stop in and get this every time I'm in St. John's.

Wonderful vegan and gluten free cafe offering an eclectic variety of healthy, fresh meals. Friendly, helpful and attentive staff. We enjoyed tasty mango mimosas (2 for $10) and they offer several vegan and gluten free deserts as well. We’ll be back.

The restaurant is vegetarian but most dishes are vegan, and the vegan options are clearly labelled. The Pad Thai was mediocre. It was too sweet and not very flavourful otherwise. There was a meagre amount of tofu and vegetables. Maybe I just didn’t order the right dish - their burritos looked delicious. Regardless, the meal was filling and I was glad to find vegan food in St John’s! Cute exterior decor and cozy ambiance.

Update from 3 star rating: Pleasant spot. Well-priced drafts (2), great veg/vegan tacos, and I am personally a big fan of the Saiyan Salad (sp?). Warm environs - local paintings for sale and, over the years, the place has been well maintained! Staff has usually been stellar. An in-between of counter and table service, I think it works very efficiently!

Such a quaint and quiet restaurant. Beautiful, calming decor. Relaxing atmosphere. Wonderful service from the staff, easy to follow direction for ordering. Tasty food, I had the gluten free pad Thai (indeed spicy friendly because I cannot tolerate spice and this dish was perfect). Absolutely would recommend!
