So salty!

Beer and staff were really nice. But the food was way too salty. Definitely ask for sauce on the side of you come here.

Decent

It felt more like a bar environment than a restaurant. That being said, the food was pretty good and I got my order quick enough. I was in and out for a fast meal.

Best Vegan Food Ever

Craft Roots isn’t just the best place for vegan food in Morgan Hill, it’s the best place to spend an hour or two with family and friends. Vegans can relax (no menu anxiety) because everything on the menu is animal free! It’s comfortable, friendly, and has a quiet patio area for hearable conversations. The food is fabulous, and the staff is amazing.

Pros: Gluten free options, The incredible Craft Roots burger, The delicious house dressing

Everything was great!

On our final day of a roadtrip, we stopped for Sunday lunch on the way back to San Francisco. This was the perfect lunch spot to top off a perfect vacation. We sat outside with our dog and started with the Korean BBQ Cauliflower Bites and Pineapple Jalapeno Margaritas while we decided what to have for lunch. The appetizer was fantastic - great flavor and texture. The margaritas were a great blend of sweet and spicy. After discussing it over with our super friendly server, we decided to share the Nashville Hot Chick'n Sandwich with sweet potato fries and the Japchae noodles. Everything was perfectly delicious. We're already planning our next trip to Craft Roots. It's more than worth the drive!

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly and helpful staff, Outdoor seating - dog friendly

Very much worth visiting

A delicious bar / vegan restaurant with a wide variety of selection. The highlights were certainly the Nashville chik'n sandwich (made with lionsmane instesd of tofu) and the wedge salad.

I wish I could say the pizza was superb but it was just short of that given the quality of vegan cheese used. Overall a great menu and would love to visit again.

Great spot. I love all the workers here, Max, Icy, Flash. Superheroes of vegan delight and fare.

I wish I had photos but just trust me, you gotta go here. What would I recommend? the cauliflower bites, the Mamu burger, the nashville hot chik'n bsandwich, and the wild mushroom pizza.....with that trffle oil and ricotta and alredo sauce. yummmm

Morgan Hill's finest!

The food here is stellar and consistently satisfies me every time I visit. The pizza is suberb and I recently had the lion's mane salad which was amazing and full of flavor. I also had the lion's mane sandwich that was also very tasty. If I lived closer I'd make this a regular haunt. I don't drink but they have an extensive craft beer menu as well. The staff is attentive and friendly. Highly recommend stopping in for lunch, happy hour, or dinner.

You won’t be disappointed

The Taco Tuesday menu did not disappoint. My partner and I split the quesadilla and the flautas. The staff were able to exchange the rice and beans on the side with a side salad and it was delicious and fresh. The house margarita was nothing special and I would not repeat. That said, I wish I lived in the area and could go back! Please go and support this restaurant.

Pros: Big portions , Lovely outdoor seating , Kind and thoughtful staff

Cons: House margarita tasted like a mix I think

One of my favs

Update - came back for a Happy Hour and got some delicious vegan apps

Definitely worth a drive or a stop! Service was great, staff couldn’t be kinder, and food was amazing and on-point! Buffalo Cauliflower was delicious, salad was amazing, and pizza was incredible! One of the best vegan meals I’ve had in the Bay Area.

Great environment and yummy food!

I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile and so glad I finally did!
My husband and I shared the burger and cauliflower wings. Both were so delicious! I especially loved the wings. Prices were on the higher end but worth it imo for an occasional visit.
Staff was very friendly and we sat outside and got such a nice view of the Main Street downtown. I will definitely be coming back!

Awesome food and service

We stopped here on a road trip on a Saturday afternoon to the Bay after finding the restaurant on HC and were so pleasantly surprised!
Our food arrived extremely quickly and both dishes were so delicious. The staff was easy going and fun to talk to, and we got lots of free samples of their drinks and they also whipped up some blue cheese dip for us because we casually talked about it. The chef talked to us about the dishes, and another person working there brought water for our dog and a bacon treat to make friends when our dog barked at him. All in all a lovely visit and I wish we lived closer!

Pros: Really tasty food , Fast service , Friendly staff

This is a must stop!

First day back in the USA and a perfect way to kick off, some fine and tasty buffalo cauliflower wings some of the best I’ve had. Also the bourbon burger was delightful!
It’s one of those spots that’s so good you get scared it might not be vegan

It was the middle of the afternoon and we were walking by. Had to stop and check it out. Neither of us were hungry but HAD to try the chili. We split it. It was AMAZING. Hubby had a beer and I had a juice box. Fantastic service!

Pros: Service, The chili, Comfortable surroundings

Chill vegan bar and restaurant

Great drinks, wonderful food, nice people. Pro tip: any pizza can be a calzone! Mushroom sandwich is amazing.

Pros: Wood burning pizza oven, Local ingredients, Good vibes

AWESOME GARLIC FRIES!!!!!

Thank you Happy Cow for this one. Since my previous fave place in San Jose is no more, I was looking for someplace between Livermore and San Luis Obispo for a late lunch stop. As always I go to Happy Cow because who really trusts yelp.

Craft Roots was EXCELLENT. We shared the Bourbon BBQ Burger with garlic fries and the Mac-Cheese-Broccoli. Since Morgan Hill is near Gilroy (the garlic capital of the world), I expected great garlic fries. And they were! The Mac was ideal on this rainy day. Since I was driving I didn't try any of the craft beers, but they had quite the selection. We also had the Coconut Chocolate Mousse and took a GF raspberry chocolate cupcake for the road. All were great! $55 total + tip. ORDER THE GARLIC FRIES!!

Pros: Garlic fries, Great food, Good value

Cons: Nothing I can think of

Superb on all levels

Great place! Got to sit outdoors in beautiful weather. Plenty of comfortable seating. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and creative. Full price, but a quality dining experience that made it worth the money.

Pros: Excellent food, Comfortable, attractive environment, Helpful and friendly staff

Cons: Expensive (but worth it)

Delicious Lunch

There were lots of tasty vegan options and reasonably priced. We sat at an outdoor table on a sunny afternoon. The service was friendly and prompt. We had a hummus platter appetizer - I loved the Lions Mane salad with blueberry-hibiscus iced tea and my non-vegan husband enjoyed the CR Burger and a Face of the Strange beer. There’s a huge beer and cocktail selection if that’s your thing.

Pros: Delicious food, Nice ambience, Friendly service
