Variety of Vegan Eats in the LBC - Edit
Amazing service and food! Loved that they have an Oaxaqueño menu! I see you Motherland! Recommend the sopes as they come, they are tasty and presentation is ON point! I was feeling crazy so also got a cheese quesadilla with spinach and Chick’n’. For takeaway, a cheesecake and carrot cake! Great spot to come to if you’re visiting the area or are a local! They have outdoor seating, so I got to bask in the sun while I ate. Mega happy all around!
Read moreNOTE: Parking can be tricky at this location, but if you go before noon on a weekday you can find off-street parking in the neighborhood. Caution with all the parking signage as there is street sweeping on Thursdays. Major points it’s near a bus stop!
Pros: Fully Vegan/Plant-Based YUMMY FOOD, Variety on the Menu - American/Mexican, Friendly Service and OUTDOOR Seating
Cons: Bathroom facilities require going thru kitchen, Parking could be tricky - I got super lucky girl!

AMAZING - Edit
a huge menu selection and the food was so freaking good. Our server was also very nice. I don't remember the last time I couldn't decide what to eat on a breakfast menu because of all the options I had. I wish I lived nearby this place so I could frequent it, can't wait to try more next time I'm in the area!

Was mit expecting it!! - Edit
Sooo good! I made it to bring 4 non vegan colleques and they all were positively surprised. It was super yum. I had the waffles with scrambled tofu and staff, Sausage was Not my thing Bit Everything Else Made up for it! To be honest as a german I mostly hate Food in the US and I miss the flavours but I did not miss it in this place. I really wanna come back!

Great choice! Super friendly staff - Edit
Our Airbnb host recommended this place. Such a good find, menu is huge with plenty of great breakfast options. Friendly staff and great service.
Read moreWe went for the Waffle Deluxe and Huevos Rancheros Breakfast. Waffle Deluxe was great! Best vegan waffles I’ve had (you have a choice of sausage or chicken) we went with the chicken.
Huevos Rancheros was delicious, I went for pinto beans, was easy for my partner to avoid the spice when we swapped plates as I had thought it was a good does to eat the chilli and onion whole. Tofu on both dishes was really nice, everything felt nice and fresh.
My partner thought ordering an apple juice was a good idea. It was a huge glass of juice. All freshly squeezed but felt like it was a small orchard in a glass. We struggled to finish it so if you’re getting juice. Maybe get it to go.
Pros: Large menu , Freshness , Friendly staff

When I go when I crave mole… - Edit
This is the burrito I crave when I think of mole. It’s enough for two days for me so I get a great dinner and an amazing lunch the next day. The flavor is consistent and rich.

My First Time... - Edit
I am really new to the vegan world! But my daughter has made the change and committed. I took her to The Grain for her birthday. The place is very welcoming, the service is excellent. The food is wonderful to say the least! Can't wait to get back for more of the the exciting fare. The menu being quite extensive, cpmpleted with a very tasty dessert selection. And, they also have a Seperate offering of Authentic Oaxacan food, very quaint. Long time in the community. Look them up
Read morePros: I had the sautéed kale, amazing with the burger pa, The not Sushi rolls or Dragon rolls , Check em out!

Cute n Cozy - Edit
Super friendly staff at this little cafe. I had the chicken crepe and had too much dessert—couldn’t decide and shared two slices with a friend. This location is easy to find from the street as the green and orange signage stands out.

Small portion sizes - Edit
What I loved about this place was they are vegan and used sustainable products like no plastic straws but compostable ones and silverware, so no plastic there too.
Read moreWe ordered a customized juice, which was good.
Ordered a pancake for the kid (no complaints), Huevos Rancheros and Tofu scramble. The portion sizes were very small for the prices, hardly filled our stomachs! The food was spread out in such a way to look as if they filled the plates, but the quantity was too little in reality!

Excellent food and service - Edit
We quickly became regulars on our vacation. I’m ready to have their Pozole soup and Pollo crepe for breakfast, lunch and dinner. These dishes are so hearty, healthy, have a great variety of produce in them and are delectable! Desserts are amazing too. The cakes are spongy and feel surprisingly light. And it is so refreshing to try Mexican cuisine beyond tacos and burritos. The service is quick and very friendly. Would definitely recommend. #Veganuary

Food great as always - Edit
I have been to another branch a few times but never tried cake so had it here. Wow, so good!! Will need to start ordering more cake 😆
Read moreTheir Italiano Cappuccino was not in any way Italian. Just the foamy messy American style. Could not drink it so cost them a star here. Espresso was better.

Tofu scramble!!!! - Edit
Ate here with 2 omnivore friends without terribly open minds and they loved their waffle and grain salad. As for me, I am so glad I ordered the tofu scramble. It was excellent.

waffle - Edit
i have gone here twice: once for lunch and once for breakfast. got a chicken and bacon club sandwich the first time and waffle deluxe w chicken fingers the second time. sandwich was pretty good but there was an extra slice of toast in the middle so the ratio was off. i don’t know how they make their chicken but it slaps. breakfast platter was very light but appetizing especially the waffles!!! also very good latte. i will be back
