Fantastic Vegan Food with Many Options!

So hard to find Vegan food and this place is a great find. So many options including vegan pizza. I opted for the Buffalo Cauliflower with very tasty sauces. I will definitely eat here again!

Father’s Day Happy Place

I must admit that my dad always loved a good bbq restaurant and unfortunately we also know that his heart health was not ideal. Wish we had a Craft Roots near us in Virginia. Good ole
BBQ and fun craft drinks. Even though we don’t drink, there are non alcohol choices too.

Pros: Vegan BBQ and Pizza. Need I say more. , Love the lion’s mane addition to the menu. , Delicious vegan comfort food.

Cons: Sensitive digestion might be aware that the sauce, are pretty spicy. Can get them on the side.

Friendly staff and food was excellent

We had the garlic fries and the mushroom and sausage pizza. We were pleased with both items. I would have liked a little more sauce on the pizza and a little more spice to the sauce but overall it was a win. Can't wait to go back to try something else, mainly the Cauliflower Buffalo bites since almost every table in the place ordered them!

Pros: Totally Vegan, Helpful staff

Great food great beer great service!

Had the chili cheezeburger. Bun was nice and toasty, chili was delicious! Staff was extraordinarily friendly....it's obvious they love their jobs, and that makes all the difference in customer experience. Will definitely visit whenever we're in Morgan Hill!

Pros: House made hot sauce, House made sauces, Yummy chewy pizza crust

Cons: Beyond Burger. House made would be better!

Clean Restrooms, Many Drinks & Several Outdoor Seating Opportunities.

This is a nice place to take a date, family, or friends in route to the Gilroy Outlets.

Food: I highly recommend the winter salad; the house-dressing compliments well with the arugula. I appreciated a slice of the vegetable pizza when it was warm, but the pizza wasn't tasty when I returned home. Next time, I would try the faux sausage pizza instead. The Chili burger was a little messy, but enjoyable.

Drinks: The bar has a plethora of cocktails, drafts, and IPAs.

Bathroom: Squeaky Clean and Spacious.

Table: This is a great place to go for outdoor seating. We waited for 5 minutes for a table underneath the sun to become available. Once the previous guest departed, a busboy thoroughly cleaned our table before we sat down.

Tax: They Calculate Recommend tips amounts after adding taxes.

I look to try a better meal during my next visit, and I hope you enjoy yours!

Pros: Friendly Staff, Outdoor Seating, Portions

Cons: Recommended Tip Amounts.

Friendly service

Sitting outside on a sunny day is lovely. The side salad was good(didn’t feel like eating fries) jam lucha and tea were fine. Our mushroom burgers were nice, I couldn’t tell I was eating mushrooms since they are fried and breaded.

Bad service

Went for dinner, they were sold out of buffalo cauliflower (why we went there), garlic fries, ice cream, and a plethora of other items. Great.

Waitress wasn't particularly helpful or friendly. At 8pm exactly they started sending people over every 2 minutes asking if we wanted boxes, despite how we were clearly still eating. If you're going to bring people food at like 7:50 (pizzas took forever), don't pressure them to leave the second you close.

Don't recommend for dine-in and wouldn't go back. Might be alright for take-out but who knows.

Pros: Vegan

Cons: Bad service , Ran out of food

Always on point

Craft Roots is an easy go to for vegan food, even my omni husband loves this place. They make ordering GF simple, some of the favorites include the mushroom and sausage pizza on the premium GF crust, GF mac and cheese, Buffalo cauliflower wings and their chili cheese fries. Food is always piping hot and delicious. Service has always been quick and super friendly. The bar is outstanding with tons of mixed cocktails and local craft beers to choose from.
A group of my Omni friends and family always request Craft Roots, we even have them on speed dial. 😀
The owner is extremely friendly and the family run feel is always so welcoming.
Plenty of outdoor dining space in addition to their indoor tables. The wood fire pizza oven is also fun to watch.

Pros: All vegan, Plenty of GF options, Friendly staff

One of the best vegan spots 🤩

I ordered a burger, Mac & cheese with broccoli & some fresh tea off tap. It was worth the drive from Sunnyvale & worth the money! It’s a must try for all vegans & vegetarians... even non-veg people too! I highly recommend this place! I also love the “look” & vibe of the restaurant. Received friendly and timely service. Will return 100 more times 😂

UPDATE (9/26): I went for the second time. I got the King Trumpet Mushroom burger and omggg I recommend it more than the beyond pattie burgers. I tried a CBD infused drink this time & it was amazing. I can’t wait to keep coming back and try the whole menu.

Pros: Reallyyyy good food, Friendly staff, Drinks on tap

Cons: None at all

The best vegan food ever

Craft Roots is honestly one of the best vegan restaurants out there. The food, atmosphere, and service is exceptional. They just started their vegan pizzas and they are amazing. My boyfriend isn’t vegan but it’s honestly one of his favorite restaurants! We drive from San Jose just to get craft roots. Highly recommend this place!

Absolutely LOVE this place!

We've been here a few times and everything we have tried has been so delicious! The wait staff is outstanding and the owner is wonderful. I stake out all vegan restaurants in the Bay Area and not many offer spirits as well! Double bonus!! We're gonna keep comin' back!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Alcohol, Dessert

Cons: Limited menu, Small & cozy

Delicious vegan food!!

My husband and I went there for a late lunch. We had the barbecue burger, the buffalo cauliflower bites, and the deep fried Castroville artichoke. To drink, I had the hibiscus kombucha. Everything was delicious. The staff was very nice and attentive. The ambiance had a great vibe!!!! We will most definitely come back!!

Pros: All vegan, Great service, Delicious food and drinks!

What a breath of fresh air!

Craft Roots is hopefully the first of many plant-based venues to come in the south bay area. There is a sore lack of whole food vegan restaurants and cafes in Morgan Hill, Gilroy and Hollister. Zip.

The food here is great. I am allergic to mushrooms, and there are a lot on the menu, but the staff happily substituted them for me for more veges, avo and tempeh in the power bowl I ordered. Super nice crew!

Everything we have tried so far has been great and full of flavour. They seem to be expanding and playing with the menu fairly regularly. The cupcakes are amazing!

Our only concerns were that we couldn't make a reservation (essential when you have mobility issues) and disability parking is not close by.

Pros: It's not all typical American style cuisine.

Cons: No reservations available. Bad disabled parking.

Wonderful Food

My wife and I have fallen in love with the food and beer available at Craft Roots! As a new Vegan, I was finding very few dishes that I enjoyed, until I started dining at Craft Roots. Every meal I have eaten there has been fantastic, full of flavor, often better than the food I have eaten at non-vegan restaurants. Service is good and there is a wonderful selection of beer, wine and spirits. This restaurant gets my highest rating and my wife and I frequent the restaurant regularly! This is a must visit restaurant if you are in the

Pros: Great Food, Excellent selection of Beer, Wine and Spirits

Cons: None

Fantastic

Needed dinner and wanted to try something new in town. Fantastic restaurant and staff. Great menu items we had the buffalo cauliflower, beet hummus, corn flake fried mushroom sandwich, power bowl and 2 kids had the beyond burgers and for desert root beer float and cupcake. Everything was delicious I loved my sandwich I wanted more and the apps were fantastic even the kids commented that they didn’t notice it wasn’t meat. Root beer float the kids noticed it wasn’t true vanilla ice cream, had a bit of a coconut flavor but hubs and I liked it. Will be back!!!!

Pros: Nice location , Food came quick, Wait wasn’t long

Great place

Kind of limited menu but everything sounded good. I had a wrap and brownie. Would order again. The wife had buffalo cauliflower and thought they were great. Everything is vegan here.
