Awesome Vegan French Dip

Awesome Vegan French Dip. On the expensive side, but worth splurging for.

All vegan, great cheese!

The cheese board is amazing!
I just wish they would tell you what kind of cheese you are eating and what it pairs well with. They said nothing. But it was all really good.

Pros: Food

Cons: No one explained anything to us

Delicious cheeze

Super kind man behind the counter let us try a bunch of cheezes that we ended up bringing back home with us! We prepared and brought a cooler that our hotel filled with ice, but Rebel has ice packs available for folks driving back cheeze.
We ate in for lunch. Large sandwiches, mostly tasty.

Brunch and cheese shopping

We went for brunch and ordered Ham and Eggs Benedict, Bacon Brie Me, the Twisted Sam, and the Flake and Bake (favorite). Everything was good and was beautifully presented, but I was hoping for more flavor in the Benedict's Hollandaise sauce.

While we waited for our food, I enjoyed tastings and shopped for cheese! Yum!

Unforgettable sampling experience!

I was visiting from the northeast US with a small group, and the owners gave us the unexpected honor of a full sampling experience -- the very week they were voted VegNews' best Austin restaurant! The selections included brie, sun dried tomato herb fromage, smoked cheddar, and honee pistachio chevre -- and our group members truly savored every sample. It was fascinating to hear the owners' stories of developing the cheeses, and to learn about their choice of ingredients. I was delighted to learn that many of their cheeses are "stock-up friendly" -- i.e. can be re-frozen after delivery -- and I plan to take advantage of their US coast-to-coast delivery.

Pros: Delicious all-vegan cheeses, Inviting atmosphere, Coast-to-coast delivery

Great Vegan Brunch Options

Their vegan brunch options are amazing and the staff is friendly HOWEVER we had a problem with was the fact that whenever you order and pay from the register, the system will automatically charge your card a 20% tip and so when you are presented with the screen to sign and tip, you are unknowingly significantly overtipping the restaurant.

My husband and I spent about $100 when we were there but I had no idea about the extra surcharges until I looked at the receipts later. We do not have a problem with tipping, the problem that we have is the lack of communication.

I think about the families and individuals that occasionally dine out that happen to live on a limited budget. Please do better on communicating with your patrons.

Bouldin Creek Cafe will post signs at every table and their servers will inform every customer of the automatic 20% tip that is added to the bill due to the fair wage gap. All I ask is that Rebel Cheese does the same.

Pros: Their selection of food and desserts., Their hours. , The staff is friendly.

Cons: Their tipping system., The parking situation is less than ideal.

Austin Vegan Mecca

Oh what a time to be alive and be vegan! The food here is the future of vegan food: high quality, well crafted, delicious, and will have you wondering why dairy cheese even still exists. Everything I tried was *chef’s kiss* - I can’t wait to go back!

They have an impressive selection of house-made cheeses, “outside” cheeses, vegan snack foods, and even *gasp* vegan macarons! Their house crafted drinks are also delightful (I can never turn down a good lavender lemonade). The building, outdoor seating, and location are also nice to top it off. Don’t miss Rebel Cheese when you’re in Austin!

Pros: Everything, Incredible cheese selection, Friendly staff

Cons: Some items are pricey, Pay for parking

Beautiful day out in Austin Texas. Rebel cheese is a treat for plant based enthusiast who desire meals with flavor, quality and variety. we ordered a BLT that was juicy and flavorful. Their cheese is phenomenal. Offering fresh hard and soft cheeses in sweet or savory flavors you can try a sample before you purchase. ensuring finding something for everyone. Seating in doors and patio. Service was friendly and cordial.

Top notch

Definitely lived up to the hype. The Bacon, Brie and Me was delicious, with
the jam being the crowning ingredient that made the sandwich disappear a minute after it hit the table. Cannot wait to go back!

OBSESSED

Rebel Cheese is absolutely amazing! I finally visited their Austin location and it’s so cute. It reminds me of France and there are a ton of vegan snacks/drinks available for purchase, a bunch of cheeses in the case, desserts and they have a full deli menu. I can’t wait to go back!!

SIMPLY THE BEST

Rebel cheese has a vast selection of vegan cheeses, wines, soups, and sandwiches. My bf and I love this place. we’ve been there 3 times since visiting Austin because it is rare to find a place that has good vegan cheese, better yet an entire selection of flavors and types. Our favorite sandwich has to be the French Dip. You would never know that it’s vegan and the cheese is creamy. We have also gotten their charcuterie board and it is fantastic. They accommodate pets as well! Overall 5/5.

Pros: Selection, Atmosphere, Quality

Amazing cheeses and great sandwiches

First time at the actual store although I’ve tried their cheeses in NYC. I was pleasantly surprised at how large the sampler platter was and how delicious the Ruben was.

Pros: Large sample platter , Authentic looking Ruben

Cases of delicious magic!

On a trip to Austin we stopped at Rebel Cheese to try it, given the novelty of an all vegan cheese shop. We liked it so much we went back three days later (choosing it over so many other vegan options here)!! The cheese boards are so fabulous!

They let you sample cheeses before buying, but they are all delicious so no choice you make will be bad! Most cheese are soy-free and almost all are gluten-free.

Great find

How fun is an all vegan “cheese” shop!! Staff is super friendly - we were able to sample as much as we wanted (including the wine). They also had dessert - so got a slice of chocolate cake to celebrate a birthday.
