Classic comfort food

The kimchi burger and vanilla soft serve I had were amazing both in flavor and texture and had me craving more. The soft serve does have a very distinct taste, maybe soy? but I enjoyed the flavor regardless. I’d love to go back soon and try their other options. I wish they had more soft serve and frappe flavors, they’re so good!

Pros: Great flavor, Cool options

Cons: Limited ice cream/frappe flavors

Good but somewhat variable food

I lived near this place for 18 months until recently. The food is good but somewhat variable depending on who makes it. I tried many of their menu items and my personal overall favorites were their kimchi veggie burger (though spice level varies a lot depending on the chef), their ramen (especially great in winter), and their faux-chicken Caesar wrap (especially great in summer). I also particularly enjoyed their root beer float (which is made with vegan ice cream), although they only sometimes have it in stock.

Pros: Great selection of all-vegan options , Vegan root beer floats

Cons: Food varies somewhat depending on who prepares it

Vegan Casual

1st time here. Garage parking available nearby for a fee. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Casual spot. Friendly staff. Korean BBQ cauliflower wings were very good and a nice portion size. One suggestion would be to lighten up on the sauce in the serving plate so their is no wing that gets soggy. Classic Caesar bowl with fried Chick’n was as good as it could be. Wild mushroom truffle pizza was delicious. Finished with soft serve swirl ice cream. Would love to come back here. Did not disappoint.

Pros: Portion size, Friendly service, Fresh food

Delicious Caesar salad to dream of

This is a fun date night place in the summer because you can sit outside while enjoying a beer near a park that hosts live music sometimes. We've come in the fall too and they have outdoor heaters. Otherwise, it's more of a grab-and-go spot as it's tiny inside. The food is delicious! I especially love the Caesar salad, whereas the rest of the fam loves the burgers. The soft serve is a big hit with the kids (if we bring them..hahaha!). PlantPub is a much-needed vegan option in our ever-growing Kendall Square technology area and we're so glad to have them.

Pros: Food is delicious, Nice outdoor space, Vegan soft serve!

Cons: Small indoor space can be hard to find seating

Delicious Food!

Went there for the first time this past weekend with a friend - it was delicious! We each got the taco bowl and split an order of the chili cheese fries. The portion sizes were great, and the staff was super friendly. Can't wait to go back and try more! Truly the only thing I didn't love was that the chocolate soft serve ice cream tasted a bit chalky. Otherwise, it was all awesome!

Pros: Friendly Staff, Cute Seating Area, Yummy Food

Cons: Dessert Not Great, A Little Pricey

Okay

It was nice to find a place with a lot of plant based options. Giving it low rating because the food was so greasy., GI upsetting greasy. The order delivered was incorrect as well with no mention of helping to correct.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: No option to sub refined grains to whole grains

Food was okay but I'm glad this place exists

I got the buffalo chicken pizza, it was okay. The space is a bit cramped but would probably be a good vibe if you have 3-4 and just getting drinks/snacks. They have non-alcoholic beer and a CBD-infused seltzer on the drink menu which is pretty cool.

Pros: 100% vegan menu, Interesting drink selection, Decent food

Cons: Small space

It’s fine

Heard about this place for a while and decided to try it out since in the area. It was fine. That’s the best I can say. I had a chicken quesadilla, which was fine. My husband got the fried chicken sandwich, which was ok. Both were overloaded with sauce, which made them difficult to eat without making a mess. The chili queso fries were just not good. It was not chili, just crumbles with some cheese sauce. I found it dry and uninteresting. By far, the best part of the meal for both of us was the vanilla frappe. That was delicious. Additionally, it was not pub food, just plant based comfort food. If I was near there, I might stop in for the frappe.

Pros: Frappe

Cons: Everything else

Not a Pub

The idea of a plant-based pub got us really excited, so even though this place is kind of in a random spot, we made our way to Plant Pub!
We had the Caesar Wrap, Buffalo Cauliflower Wings and Ramen Bowl, both sounded amazing but were…okay-ish. The Ramen was REALLY salty, without much other flavour to it and the wrap was incredibly greasy (like you could barely hold it) but otherwise ok, albeit very little „chicken“ in it. The wings had a really good flavour, they weren’t crispy though but very soggy.
I’m not sure why the place is called a “pub“ though. They have a good few beers to choose from (all of them cans, as far as I’m aware, there were no taps in sight) but the vibe is very much fast food place with a few seats, not a spot you‘d want to hang out in and chill with friends over a few pints.

Pros: Fully Vegan

LOATHED IT !!

Wish I could give it zero stars!
Unhelpful and unfriendly staff!
Expensive!
My order was wrong !
I ordered the bbq guac burger with house made patty NOT the Impossible Patty, which I do not like.
I ended up with the Impossible classic burger.
Sooooo, I paid more and got less.
I choked it down because I got it to go and didnt find out the screw up untill I got to my stop and I was hangry.
Sooooo, I paid $30 bucks for a crappy burger and fries.
No wonder the other larger location just closed in less than 1 year.
BLECH !!!!🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Spend your $ elsewhere

I would not recommend the food at Plant Pub. When I went, I got the Ramen, which was ridiculously salty; I couldn’t even finish it. My partner got the nachos, which were a bit better than my meal. This food felt like poor quality at much higher prices than it should’ve been. Perhaps this place is more similar to vegan fast food - just more costly.

Pros: Entirely vegan

Cons: Expensive, Many items on the menu were unavailable

I’ve had better

I got the Bahn Mi tonight, not only was it dry and mostly bread but the “fried maitake mushrooms” were actually cauliflower. It was really disappointing.

Yummy Burger

Tried their burger with their veggie burger. It was so yummy and flavorful! The fries were really good I just wish they drizzled on more aioli sauce on top.

our go to, always!

we haven’t tried a thing here that we didn’t LOVE, seriously. i always go back and forth between the fried buffalo chik’n sandwich with the ranch slaw and the buffalo chik’n caesar wrap! but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. the pizzas, quesadilla, cauliflower bites, ice cream.. i would eat here everyday if i could! it is on the pricier side, but it’s definitely a treat!

Spicy buffalo pizza!

Tasty options. Pizza is pretty good value as they can feed 2 people if they’re not super hungry!

staple when i’m in boston

sooo delicious and the bbq pizza and garlic fingers are my go to. i got the queso fries this time and they’re good but i wish they had more queso!! there was only a little bit on the top couple of fries. everytime i’m in boston i order from here and i always look forward to it. a must go🤤
EDIT:
came back again and got the loaded nachos and….. WOW i could not stop eating them. also got the margarita pizza and it was a little greasy but in a good and nostalgic way and tasted SO cheesy. one of those meals that makes you question if it’s vegan haha.

all vegan, but not great if you don't love greasy stuff

Got the fries, caesar salad wrap (forgot to take pic), and fried chicken buffalo style sandwich. Fries were definitely the best choice, super yummy, and all the food was good but really makes you feel sick afterwards from the grease. Would not recommend the caesar salad wrap at all as they didn't put any croutons or parmesan in it, only a wrap with lettuce and dressing. Fried chicken sandwich again good but maybe avoid if you don't love super fried food. Pretty expensive 😅 But of course always appreciate all vegan places and super cute inside.

Pros: lots of vegan options , cute inside , fries were delicious

Cons: expensive , greasy , don't really give you what you pay for

So good food

I have not found anything that I did not love in their menu. All fresh and flavorful. The chicken quesadilla is one of my favorites. Service is fast, staff is friendly. If parking was easier in the city, I would be there every day. Sitting outside is beautiful when the weather is nice.

good 👍🏻

I liked this place a lot even though it was kind of expensive. The food was pretty good and the service was fast which was appreciated. I didn’t expect that it was a sit down kind of sports bar vibe restaurant but it was really nice in there. They have paper straws which is good even though personally I don’t like using them. Overall cool place I liked it. I will go back since they didn’t have originally what I wanted to order.
