Wonderful Vegan Menu! - Edit
First of all, this place not only has vegan OPTIONS, but a complete vegan MENU. And the choices are varied, very delicious, and our server Bella was great. In addition, the restaurant is spacious, very clean, and the bathrooms (a primary barometer of a restaurant’s quality for me), are spotless and well-maintained. I had a vegan garden hash topped with spiced tofu, and separately, a delicious vegan cinnamon roll. The garden hash could have used a bit more flavor, but it was nonetheless delicious. And the coffee was great!

Best Vegan Pancakes in Grand Rapids - Edit
Noble Restaurant is a conundrum. It is the only restaurant of its kind I have been to where the vegan options are better than the non-vegan options.
Read moreNoble has a wide range of vegan options on their menu, all clearly labeled. They also have vegan options for dressings, sauces, and whipped creams. Their vegan pancakes are a mountain of sugar and a guilty pleasure for my vegan breakfast sweet tooth. I have never ordered a breakfast that I did not gobble up.
On the other hand, the omnivores that I have brought with me to this restaurant have been less enthused, and I agree by the look of their choices. The omelets looked bland and, from their critique, tasted bland as well. All of the meat-based options I have seen there looked basic. It is so strange to have a restaurant like this do a better job on the vegan options than the rest of the menu.
This restaurant is a great option for plant-based patrons that want to indulge a sweet tooth. If you are going with a group, try to encourage them to order off the vegan menu for a better time.

Great options - Edit
It is some crap that I can’t give this restaurant 5 stars just because they have an animal products on property!
Read moreThis place is excellent and has a ton of options for vegan and vegetarians alike! Everything on their griddle list can be vegan. They even have vegan whipped cream and butter.
I had the vegan olive burger which was so good and came right on time as I have been wanting an olive burger. It came with an amazingly fluffy yet sturdy bun and it held together every bite. They also hand cut their fries and they are so well seasoned and delicious. I am so glad this place is right by my house because I will frequent this place from here on out!
Pros: Tons of vegan options, Delicious

HappyCow likes to save the 5 star option for restaurants that are vegetarian or vegan. This is to give extra support for restaurants that have abstained from animal products on their menu.

Was great, not as of late. - Edit
When first coming to the area in early 2020, Noble quickly became a go-to favorite. As a vegan, not only do I appreciate a restaurant with clear vegan markings on their menu, but also lots of options to choose from. To have savory and sweet is a real treat. The Gardener's Hash Browns became a repeat favorite (subbing out hash browns for red skins) with the vegan pesto and sour cream it was an excellent flavor combination.
Read moreHaving frequented Noble consistently for the last 3 years I'm extremely disappointed in how downhill my experience has gone. From such a high experience at the start to now is day and night.
For the last year now there is no vegan sour cream, they simply seem to have stopped making it but only saying they are out of it when asked. My Gardener's hash browns have BARLEY any garden in them. I can't believe they can even call it that still with the lack of veggies they serve. Half of my orders are missing the pesto. Sometimed no tomatoes. It's like sometimes the cooks don't know what the items are supposed to contain or by now they simply don't care.
My most recent visit in person i tried spending more on the vegan scramble to specifically request the items it should come with, which by menu says it comes with vegan cheese. Mine did not come with cheese and still minimal on veggies.
Today we ordered via door dash, and I wonder if those tickets get even less care or concern cause my vegan scramble gave me zero online options to add anything, so I hoped it'd come with something on it. Nope, just $10 tofu scramble. This time with the "vegan cheese," so i guess that's something? We ordered and paid for red skin potatoes and got none. I ended up cooking veggies I had at home to even make that a meal. And we ordered vegan pancakes... which were clearly not vegan and therefore not something I ate.
Noble went from my favorite restaurant in Grand Rapids to a place I will not likely not patron again for a very long time, if ever. I'm so disappointed in the downswing and really hope they make improvements.
Pros: Vegan menu markings , Multiple vegan options
Cons: Very minimal amounts of veggies, Out of vegan sauces always, no changes on menus, Lack of consistency

Not worth the hype - Edit
Vegan options were available, but nothing fancy. I had the Gardeners Hashbrowns, I could have made something better at home unfortunately. No vegan sour cream like it said on the menu, and our waitress wasn’t going to tell us that they were out until I asked for a side of some. Fresh fruit side was also not fresh at all. Host was rude, server acted like she didn’t want to be there also rude. Probably won’t come back, much better vegan options at other breakfast places in the area.

Gardener’s Hash Browns - Edit
I wanted to love it, but didn’t. Gardeners Hash Browns came out cold. I think there was one mushroom slice and just not much flavor besides potato.
Read moreThe pesto was delicious, but my plate was missing the vegan sour cream which the menu said came with the meal.
There was a $0.50 charge for a bit of almond milk creamer and $0.75 and $.25 charges for line items marked vegan on the receipt? I know it’s small change, but I like transparency.
Nothing stood out to encourage a return visit, which is a bummer because the menu looks great on paper.
Pros: Vegan friendly
Cons: Nickle and dime you on the receipt
