Wholesome & healthy made delicious.

This artsy, cozy little place has a variety of vibrant vegan options from pressed juices to salads! High quality & very conscious food product choices created here, worth the price for it too!

great spot

Lots of options, from bowls, to sandwiches/wraps to smoothies and juices. I usually get their wraps with vegan sausage. Very tasty.

Be prepared for a long wait

Buddha-full is one of few places to get good, vegan, non-starbucks drinks. For example, they have this pumpkin chai latte which can be amazing! But it can also be terrible. It is totally inconsistent and sometimes it doesn't seem like they even follow a recipe. It is a bit of a gamble, and their drinks aren't cheap.
Their food is generally good, premade sandwiches that they heat up and serve with lots of salad and a very good salad dressing.
Lastly, they are quite busy these days and it can take 10-20 minutes to get your food/drinks, even if it is to go. Yes, even if the juice is premade.

Pros: creative drinks, good food, good atmosphere

Cons: inconsistent, long wait times

Very good

Very good place, I just wish it was closer to where I lived. I do not go often because it is too far for me.

Little Hidden Jewel

This is a very good place to have a great meal and be helped by a team that shows that they are happy to be there. I really enjoyed the sayings throughout the place as well. Good place, great food.

Pros: Good Parking, Great Team

Wonderful vegan food and owners

A great atmosphere, the owners are really nice and knowledgeable, recommending additional vegan and vegan-friendly restaurants in greater Vancouver. The food was fabulous, we tried Rainbow Salad, a Green Smoothie, a Samosa, a Quinoa Almond Butter cookie, and a Chocolate Peppermint Brownie. There's so much more there I'd like to try! Very thumbs up.

Pros: Great food, Knowledgeable owners, Great atmosphere

Budda Full Experience

Atmosphere I found was a little cold and the place was messy. I tried the nut burger and found I was still hungry after I ate it. Paying over $6.00 for the burger, in my opinion, there should have been more to it. The serving size was so samll I was embarassed for the owners serving it.
Got a smoothie as well, it was just okay as there was not a lot a flavour.
I found the 2 owners to be * not friendly*. Not even a smile in my direction. I feel if you are starting a new restaurant it is important to actually let your guests know you are happy to see them.
I think the concept is nice for the neighbourhood, and I love vegan food, but am disappointed and will not go back.
