Good Organic Vegan Options - Edit
Enjoyed a vegan acai bowl here. The portion was generous! I enjoyed the eclectic interior decor. It's located in downtown Vista, in an area that needs more places like this. A welcome addition to the area, indeed!

Absolutely incredible - Edit
This cafe is amazing in all ways, the food, the employees and the environment. It's not 100% vegan but I would say it's 90% vegan. Every single thing I have ordered here has been delicious -- I highly recommend it.

Best vegan pastries and sandwiches in the area!! - Edit
Just moved to Carlsbad and I have to say, this place kills it with the vegan sandwiches and pastries. The only down side to this place is that they aren’t open for dinner! The inside is sooo cute and I searched everywhere for a good vegan yeast donut— here it is!! Their bagel sandwich, the Dylan’s, veggie sandwich… all amazing. Donuts, cinnamon rolls, scones… drooling. Can’t say enough good stuff about this place!

So Rude! - Edit
Not worth eating at a place that openly screams at their customers. It is so awkward and on repeat...I'd rather have Del Taco. The food is okay but not worth supporting cruelty. So off when Vegan places are like this :(. Made my first Happy Cow review because this makes me so uncomfortable
Read morePros: Food is palatable, Stock good pastry
Cons: Absolutely Rude , Huge Wait Times , Not Worth It

Great breakfast sandwiches - Edit
This would be a great place to cater every lifestyle. They have normal options as well as vegan. I got the vegan breakfast sandwich on sourdough and the vegan pasta salad. I also got the cold brew over their homemade cashew milk. I was pleased with everything I ordered and will be visiting again.

Vegan sandwiches and donuts! - Edit
Went here on a Wednesday morning for the first time. I was not expecting much but was quite pleasantly surprised by the selection of sandwiches and donuts. I got a hot grilled Dylan sandwich, which has avocado, vegan bacon and cheese. They also have a vegan gyro wrap which I’d like to try next. For dessert we got a blueberry frosted donut and a cinnamon roll. Both were very good! They had several other donut flavors so I am eager to return here.
Read morePros: Vegan meats and cheeses for sandwiches, All pastries/donuts are vegan and really good, Friendly service

Great vegan options - Edit
I love having this so close to home. I love the breakfast sandwich, the Orange Julius and the many sweets they carry. It’s a favorite spot to stop and visit with my kids as they have toys and books for them while you eat or wait for your delicious food.

A weekly must - Edit
Ive been coming here consistently for the past year with my boyfriend. Milk Organics had become a family to us. The vegan bacon avo sandwich with chipotle agave & vegan chipotle bagel sandwich are absolutely delicious. Cashew milk is made fresh. Plus, they always have delicious vegan sweets & treats. So grateful for this little haven near our home. Always a great place to stop by on our days off or after a hike with friends.

Amazing vegan options. The vegan bagel is my favorite. You can also make any sandwich vegan, just ask (the menu offers vegan bacon, vegan sausage, etc). Smoothies are to die for and delicious vegan cinnamon roll and doughnuts.

If you’re a vegan come out to vista to try their vegan food! Service is always nice, and it’s clean! And the food is just delightful. I try and go everyday! My favorite sandwich is the vegan Dylan. My favorite drink has to be PB & J with a scoop off pea protein. Although I rarely get them, the donuts and treats are always good. Check it out!

Smoothies and Doughside Donuts - Edit
I go here at least once a week to get a passion fruit smoothie (made with their house made nut milk) and Doughside vegan donuts. They’re super friendly and accommodating to me being my own glassware for smoothies. Only downfall, they’re dreadfully pricy. My smoothie runs around $7 and each donut is $4/$5 :(

Small gem - Edit
Despite a limited number of vegan sandwiches they are really good. Their specially appears to be vegan donuts. Most other vegan places have relatively dry baked goods, but theirs are delicious and MOIST! They have limited hours, but they are worth the trip.
