Great spot and food

We had the VG Potato Taco and VG Potato Burrito. Taco shell had great light crunch and the filling was potato with cabbage, and pico de gallo. Herbaceous flavor, fresh cilantro forward.
The burrito was big and great to split. Burrito had rice, potato, avocado and pico de gallo.
We both favored the taco.
Vegetarian menu helped to identify what options could be made vegan, along with clearly marked options. BUSY on a Saturday, with great people watching. Crowd started around 12:45p(note the farmers market is close by and ends at 1p). When we were there a small band was playing just off the patio.
Be prepared, we had a long wait and were told it’s because the potato hash takes longer 🤷‍♀️

Pros: Clearly marked options, Fun place with outside bar height dining , Priced right

Cons: Longer wait for potato dishes

A Sandpoint Secret Favorite!

Great veg-friendly foods!
The blackened, tofu burrito with the dairy-free sauce is AWESOME! The potato burrito is a pleasantly delicious discovery too! Fun folks!

Best burrito ever!

My go-to is the tofu fajita burrito without dairy, sub with their special vegan sauce. It’s the best burrito I’ve ever had!

Cons: They use styrofoam on some items so ask!

SO GOOD

My bf & I were shocked at how much we loved this place. I ate the tofu taco, sub non-dairy sauce, and holy crap it was to die for. He tried the tofu fajita burrito and absolutely loved it. The tacos are STUFFED full so one was enough for me, & his burrito was huge and very filling as well. Get price point for 2 people to be full on $12 of food.

Pros: A good handful of tofu options, Dairy free sauce option to substitute , Staff is knowledgeable on vegan substitutes

Cons: Busy

Great vegan options in Sandpoint

Many options clearly marked, and the staff is very aware of vegan food and subs out appropriately. Came for breakfast and had the soy chorizo breakfast burrito without eggs, added potatoes and vegan sauce at the cashier's suggestion. It was delicious!

Pros: Delicious, Lots of Seating, Tons of Parking

Cons: Cafeteria-style

wow

Not to long ago the last stop for anything close to vegan was Coeur d'Alene, on Idaho 95. Now this place is open and it's great. Service was excellent helped by a recovering vegan behind the counter who had us order the tofu tacos and they did not disappoint. I would recommend this to any one service was fast. Has open air and in house seating and good prices.

Pros: price, service, location
