Description

**A Hidden Gem for Vegan Delights**

Nestled in the heart of the city, this charming establishment exudes friendliness and warmth, making it a perfect spot for a light meal and refreshing drinks. While the presentation of dishes like tacos and wraps is visually impressive, some diners find the flavors a bit subdued, suggesting a touch more seasoning could elevate the experience. However, standout offerings such as the birria tacos and the house-made vegan sausage delight many patrons. The attentive staff enhance the welcoming atmosphere, making guests feel at home. With a diverse menu and excellent coffee, this cafe is a delightful discovery for vegan enthusiasts.

Whether you’re vegan or not, everyone can find something to enjoy here. Opting for more plant-based options means you’ll have fresh, delicious, and healthy meals. We really enjoy the salads, burgers, and fresh hummus. The location is incredibly convenient, the staff is always friendly, and the prices are reasonable with generous portion sizes. Let’s support our local small businesses!

The food here is incredibly delicious! I was pleasantly surprised by how closely it resembled authentic flavors. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were absolutely exquisite. The chaga latte was nothing short of heavenly. I highly recommend this charming little spot. Come with an open mind, and you'll definitely be satisfied!

The service was incredibly slow! We were asked if we wanted fries or chips with our burger, but then we were charged $3 for the fries, even though the server mentioned they were included with the burger. On a positive note, the burger itself was quite good. However, it’s debatable whether it was worth the long wait.

Barista is quite friendly but for some reason the entire menu is vegan which isn't mentioned anywhere? If you are only going to have vegan options consider placing it somewhere before I drive here to eat.

Went to this place for the first time on the way back to Austin from San Antonio. Understated is probably the best way the describe this place. When you walk in it doesn’t look like much, purple walls a mural cans of espresso art work that feels like it’s from a home goods store. But, then you order.The vegan food will satisfy even the meat lover in your life. I had the tomato mozzarella panini and it was seasoned well. Did not get coffee unfortunately, but from the smell of things I would have been in for a treat there as well. Would recommend giving it a shot.
