SO good! - Edit
Stopped here on the way during a road trip, and loved it! I got the Buffalo rice bowl with Mac and cheese as a side, and my boyfriend got the Philly! The food was delicious and the vibes were immaculate. Also loved that they have a small fridge/pantry section—I was able to grab a block of Rebel Cheese, one of my favorites! Will definitely go again when in the area 🖤

Delicious! - Edit
Very flavorful and filling meal - the vegan poke bowl. Had to try the carrot cupcake with “cream cheese” icing, which tastes better than the real thing since it is plant-based! I’ve had better vegan Mac and cheese but I’m still grateful to have this as an option.

Delicious options - Edit
Cashew has some great variety. If I’m looking for something healthy, they have good options like salads, beet burgers, sweet potatoes, “meat”balls over kale, and seitan proteins. For when I want to indulge, they have nachos, Crunchwraps, tater tots, and amazing cupcakes. I bought me daughters birthday cake from here and it was delicious. There is also a kids menu.

Best meal we had in Chattanooga - Edit
Ok, if I lived closer I would be in trouble because the BBQ jackfruit nachos are addictive. I think I could eat them every day. Everything else we had was great too, including the desserts. And our server couldn't have been nicer. Just a great place all-around.

Great food and location! - Edit
Nestled in the plaza across from Coolidge park. Only entrance through the back right below, AVA. I had their beet burger and my brother had the nachos. Both delicious. My only wish is that the burger come with a choice of different sides other than the chips (which came with no cashew cheese) and no additional charge.

Never a fail - Edit
Stopped here multiple times. On my way to or from on a trip through the area and this place has consistently delivered with flavor. Metered parking available in the lot. Busy area parking can be difficult to find. Very friendly staff. Plenty of dessert options, so make sure you leave room. This trip around we had a buffalo bowl which is a good portion, size and delicious. I also had the chorizo burrito, which was smaller than I thought it was going to be but tasty and filling. We always get dessert. This time we had a doughnut and a cupcake. I donut was better in my opinion for both were finished within five minutes. Will continue to come back here. Solid choice for vegan food.

Back in the area again. Could not/would not pass this place up. Had their Buffalo bowl. Nice portion size. Yes I know it’s Buffalo but I was hoping it wouldn’t have packed that much of a kick. It was still good. Their kale garlicky salad was delicious (it comes with absolutely nothing else - no croutons or other veggies). Their grilled chicken salad wrap had good flavor - even the next morning. I also had a donut and a brownie which started something dangerous for me because they are addicting.

Great Vegan Restaurant! - Edit
As we walked in we were greeted by two very friendly employees. I had the Burrito Bowl & side of Mac-n-cheese, both very good! My husband had the Chorizo Burrito & side of Chorizo Mac-n-cheese, he loved it. It was pretty spicy, but he loved spicy food. I also got a Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake to go, which was good too!

River front gem - Edit
I loved this cute cafe right near the river. I was stealth camping in my van for the night so I went for lunch and got the buffalo tofu bowl (yummy), then the beyond burger (delish), Mac and cheese (good just needed a touch of salt), potato lentil curry, and chili (haven’t tried yet), for my next few meals. Fully stocked on desserts but I didn’t buy any. Service was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable

Food and staff are amazing! - Edit
We eat here every time we visit Chattanooga and that’s often.,We love the food and cozy atmosphere. The staff are so attentive and the food is always wonderful. There are many tasty plant based options to choose from and we always feel good after eating the food. We don’t leave bloated and tired but instead we feel happy and energized by the fresh food especially the garlicky kale!!! Thank you! Open one of these in Nolensville TN please! 😊

Great all vegan restaurant! - Edit
This was a wonderful experience all around! The server was so kind, entertaining, and knowledgeable! We had a meatball sub and a chik’n salad wrap. They were both great, but the wrap was really the showstopper! The flavors and presentation were perfect! The meatballs were great, and I loved the cheese sauce even though I am used to more of a melted mozzarella. We got a side of mac & cheese, and that was honestly like one I’ve made at home. We also got a side of the chili Mac, and that was very good. We normally don’t get dessert, but we got an apple tart, and it was delicious. The meatballs were great, and I loved the cheese sauce even though I am used to more of a melted mozzarella. It was a beautiful restaurant. Our GPS wanted us to park way before we got to the restaurant, so be aware that there is parking right outside the restaurant in case your GPS does the same.

A must in Chattanooga - Edit
Amazing food. I'm from Atlanta and make it a point to come here every time I'm in town. Hubby loves the Philly cheesesteak, and everything we have tried here is awesome. They have a great kids menu too. One of my favorites is the Buffalo bowl. They also have vegan and gluten free desserts which are delish. Prices are reasonable.

Cashew Cheese!!! - Edit
One of the best vegan spots I’ve ever been to for sure! Their specialty is definitely their cashew cheese so is recommend getting anything that includes that. We got the vegan nachos & chorizo burrito & the loaded sweet potato as a side and they were all amazing😄

Such a wonderful gem! - Edit
It’s so cute, from the moment you walk up to the front your expectations are high and the food does not disappoint! I had the Chili Mac, Garliky Kale, and the BBQ Jackfruit Nachos. Everything was tasty and flavorful! For dessert I got cupcakes for myself and my non-vegan coworkers, who loved them! This place is totally worth a visit if you’re in town.
Read moreThe picture of the nachos is probably not as good looking as they would have prepared it - I was traveling so they gave it to me deconstructed so I could travel with it easier. I’m sure their presentation would be better than mine! But they were soooo tasty anyway!
The staff was super friendly as well.

Best Vegan Food - Edit
Unbelievably good! Everything about this place was absolutely fantastic. My friend and I stumbled upon Cashew while traveling and it was honestly one of the best and most memorable meals I’ve ever eaten (I had the meatball bowl). It was the first vegan meal my friend had and she was sold (I believe she had the burrito). This place is just that amazing! You must try the cashew cheese! We bought some to go and put it on everything. Clean facility, friendly staff, and relaxing atmosphere in a charming part of the city. Good value with large portions, as well. While I didn’t try any, the baked goods looked fabulous.

Vegan heaven - Edit
While traveling we planned our trip around stopping here. Both of us got the Phili Chez steak and Mac and chez in lieu of chips for $3 more. We LOVED the sandwich!!!! Good flavoring in the seitan, nice portion of mushrooms onions and bell peppers for complex flavor profile. And hesitatingly we got some doughnuts that are also gluten free as most gf doughnuts are nasty. But these were fluffy enough and delicious!!!
Read moreSuper friendly staff. Food prep was quick. Decent portions for the price. Limited seating outside and plenty of seating inside. Friendly decor. Pay to park at the kiosk was $1 per hour. We are so glad we live 5 hours away or we would be here all the time.
Pros: GREAT taste, prices in line for area, Friendly, prompt staff
Cons: nothing, no cons, literally love this place, just a heads up, $1/hour to park
