My top pick in the USA - Edit
If you miss this spot when visiting Philly, shame on you. This is now my top choice in the USA. The quality of ingredients are unmatched. The presentation is spectacular.

Great food, atmosphere, and staff - Edit
My mom and I were welcomed by the staff with such warmth and down to earth conversation, which set the tone for the whole dining experience. The butternut squash bisque was perfect for a dreary day, and the side black kale salad was the best kale salad I’ve ever had!! They even let us in on the secret recipe! Would go back to try everything on an incredibly tasty and diverse looking menu. Great price for good quality/quantity as well.

Food Quality Has Gone Down - Edit
Downgrading my initial review from 5 to 3 stars. I hate many of the new food changes. This place used to be so much healthier and fresh. Most of their food seems to now be coated in oil when it used to be used sparingly before. Additionally, I'm very unhappy that their treats went from unrefined healthier sugars to regular sugar. PS&Co was a more unique healthy vegan place but now is just another unhealthy vegan spot in Philly. My last few salads were wilty and not as fresh as before. Also, super sad that the summer rolls were removed and now its just the fried rolls. Staff is still fantastic. Old review for reference: Fresh organic food, friendly staff, and a relaxing atmosphere. One of my favorite regular spots.

Great food, eh service - Edit
This place is absolutely adorable. Very nicely decorated and set up and can be good for a romantic date too.
Read moreService: Our waiter was friendly but didn't show up much. The other servers (and I think one of the females is a manager) were talking to a customer who was their friend and/roommate/SO or something but it was very very unprofessional. I don't mind that usually but this was to the point where I think too much time was being spent talking amongst themselves and not on their other customers. They were also on their phones the entire time.
Food: It was delicious. we had the beet burger and the kale pesto pizza. both very good. best part though is the dessert. we got the brownie sundae with coffee ice cream and pecans and chocolate ganache. it was orgasmic. amazing amazing dessert. Tad expensive. $10 and it wasn't huge. Good portion for 2 people but still expensive imo.
Pros: great food , AMAZING DESSERT
Cons: unprofessional employees, expensive

Our current favorite in Philadelphia - Edit
P.S. and Co. is an amazing vegetarian spot with an even better staff. The dishes are all incredibly creative, with each bite leaving you to wonder how something like this exists. Of the 4 dishes we ordered, our favorites were the pizza, egg roll, and beet burger. Sorry, couldn't narrow it down any further.
Read moreThey are very accommodating to gluten allergies. Only 1 item on the entire menu even had gluten in it and by request only
Pros: Dish creativity, Flavor combinations, Service
Cons: I didn't find it sooner

Excellent food and service - Edit
I was in town for a conference and stumbled across this place with some of my friends. It was Saturday night, and we didn't have dinner reservations anywhere. The staff at PS&Co accommodated us anyway. This menu is a delight! There were 4 of us in my party - two vegans and one person who cannot have any gluten. The menu is 100% organic, vegan, and gluten-free. Talk about liberating! We ordered the Imperial Rolls, which are amazing! You know the food is good when a hush descends as people start tasting it. The Veracruz tacos are a nice mix of sweet and spicy. The cauliflower and mushroom meatball pizza was interesting, but don't expect something that seems like pizza. One appetizer, two entrees, one side, and four desserts came to $106. My friends and I didn't think it was too expensive because of the variety of choices on the menu, the great atmosphere and location, and the outstanding service. We had the best time, and I will got back when I'm in Philadelphia again.

Cons: BYOB

Ah-maze-ing! - Edit
This far exceeded my expectations! We were a group of 9 and I chose to order a side of tofu scramble knowing that I'd have an opportunity to nibble off everyone else's plates. I nibbled on nachos, waffle, and then went to town on three refined sugar-free desserts! The tofu scramble was like none I'd ever experienced. Totally like the consistency of scrambled eggs and super flavorful. I have a garlic allergy and they were able to accommodate happily.
Read moreWhat's more, they are trying to go waste free! It's inspiring and awesome, and I'm more than happy to pay what others say are high prices to help make this possible. Can't wait to return and sample more awesomeness!
Pros: vegan, gluten free, low waste
Cons: there's only one (wish they were all over!)

No espresso - Edit
Is this a cafe or a restaurant?
Read moreCake was delicious but - sorry - even for a tiny vegan cake around 9$ is completely overpriced.
We were really disappointed to hear that there’s no
Espresso or Cappuccino.
We got some tee. Average. After 30 minutes waiting time.

pricey for portion size, but I would go back - Edit
I went this morning, and I really enjoyed myself. The cafe was very nice and clean which is important, and so were the employees. Located in rittenhouse so the parking might be tough, but a really nice area to be in. I had the avacado toast which I loved and would get again. I also had the coconut yogurt with the granola which I really enjoyed as well. Their housemade seasonal juice with watermelon was fantastic. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the scone. Very dry, and not really appetizing if you ask me.
Read moreOverall a really good place to eat. My only two compliants are the prices/portions. Very small portions in my opinion for the price. But I would go back

Wholesome Veg Spot - Edit
What an adorable little place! We came for weekend brunch and got the choc chip pancakes & tofu scramble with greens and quinoa pancakes. Both delish! The food could definitely be plated up better with more toppings but I personally love when my food is bursting with colours and different components! The staff was super friendly but I feel it was abit understaffed so lucky it wasn't busy at that time. Right near the centre and was a great start to the weekend.

Great, wholesome food - Edit
This review is a bit overdue for PS and Co. I first came here with my husband last November while visiting Philly. We were up somewhat early on a Sunday morning and this was one of the few (possibly only) vegan places open.
Read moreThere is an extremely welcoming vibe the moment you walk through the door. The staff (and owner) are all so sweet and informative about everything on the menu. Now one may look at the prices and be scared away, but don't! The food here is amazing and well worth every penny. I think it's incredible that everything is organic, vegan, and gluten free. They also make their own (gluten free) flours and nut milks. Additionally, they host events, like cooking classes. You can tell that this restaurant really cares about the wellness of its community.
While visiting Philly this past weekend (in February), we were sure to return to PS and Co. for breakfast. Everything is exactly how we remember it. The food was delicious, service kind, and atmosphere peaceful.
Pros: Service, Atmosphere , Organic food

not open?? - Edit
Was in Philly yesterday for the day and wanted to try this place for breakfast. App said they were open at 9am... Showed up 10 after 9 and it was closed. Sign on the front said 9am. Knocked... Waited a bit and left. It's 20 degrees out... We will not be attempting this place again... Very disappointed in going out of our way to try this place and they were closed.
