Fantastic sandwiches - Edit
I came for the bbq “chicken” sandwich, but left with the Italian sub. I asked the woman taking my order and she said that it was her favorite. It’s now my favorite. They really did this right.

Great vegan sandwiches - Edit
Visited here recently on vacation and wasn’t disappointed! We had the buffalo and pesto sandwiches and both were excellent! Also ordered the lavender lemonade and vanilla iced chai—so good!

Awesome sandwiches! - Edit
The sandwiches are huge! Very friendly and accommodating with my son’s special sandwich request. My husband loved the pesto sandwich and says it is the best! I really enjoyed the Buffalo sandwich and my daughter enjoyed her bbq sandwich. My son is super picky and he ate half of his too (he only stopped because he was full). Brownies are amazing.

Love da buds - Edit
I love buds so much. Back in college, we won't talk about how long ago that was. I would reward myself with a buds chicken pesto sandwich after every major test at the end of the school year. Now that I live in the SF Bay area I try to eat at buds every time I return to SLC. The sandwiches are great. You get a lot for your money. And the pesto sub is Devine. I cannot stress the amount of deliciousness in between bread.

Best meal I had in SLC - Edit
Ate at like 4 vegan places this week while in town and this is the only one that even comes to the quality I'm used to. Their sourdough is great with a crunch. Had the buffalo chicken straight up, perfect flavor and portion size. This is probably the only restaurant I will return to on future trips to SLC.

It has potential to be good. - Edit
The flavors are great, alon with the prices- but it's all soy curls and white breads.
Read moreNot many options, hard to order, hard to park for pickup. What's annoying is, whenever we've tried to call, they never answer the phone, yet I've stood at the window for a while, while employees are just looking at me... while on the phone.
I think if they worked on customer service, the ordering process (have experienced issues with site, but can't get a call answered), and adding some options for proteins and breads, it'd be great. Until then, I pass on this one.
Pros: Price
Cons: Lack of options, Customer service

Meh - Edit
Decidedly average. Sandwiches are decent, but like slightly below what you'd get at Jimmy John's or something. Us vegans need to up our standards of what's "excellent".

Pesto - Edit
It’s been awesome having vegan/plant based businesses to support. Buds is a great experience from the greeting you get at the window to the variety and great tasting sandwiches. I typically would not order a “faux meat”, but when they told me they make their own, I had to try. The chikun pesto was full of flavor and the chikun consistency and taste was really good. Definitely would order it again.

A Philly cheesesteak with incredible cheese, a little spice and a touch of smoky flavor for $7.50? Yes. Please!!! First time here but definitely not my last.

The best of the best! - Edit
Buds has to be my top choice for a solid vegan sandwich in Salt Lake City. Only open for takeout and mainly lunch hours but always a pleasant and efficient experience. The Banh Mi, Buffalo and pesto are my top 3, while all the menu items are a force to be reckoned with. The prices are probably the most affordable for vegan in salt lake. The staff is so friendly and rarely make a mistake I have not had one bad experience. I’ll always be a buds customer and always will love unwrapping one of their sandwiches for lunch. Besides the main courses the lavender lemonade and chocolate zucchini cookies are a fantastic edition to your meal. Shoutout buds you guys rock!

The pictures submitted on here don’t look very promising in my opinion but thank god I tried it out anyway cause these things are stellar. The bread is fresh and the sandwiches are larger than they look.

Fav vegan food in Salt Lake - Edit
This is a bold title, but I stand by it. This is one of, if not my all-time, favorite local restaurants. The flavors are SO good, textures are on point, and portions are super filling! We have liked everything here, but especially the Cheesesteak, Buffalo, and Pesto. We also got “Chick’n” noodle soup from them once when sick and it hit the spot
Read moreNot to mention, all of our non-vegan friends and family have loved this place!! 😍 we’ve taken many many people here 😋
