I ordered the Sprout Lovers Tacos and they were pretty good, but definitely not the best I’ve ever had! The walnut meat was mushy, but I really enjoyed the sprouts and shells. Good vegan food if you’re in a pinch and need something to eat, but definitely better options in STL!

Pros: Vegan Friendly, Convenient

Cons: Food, Atmosphere

Good Healthy Food!

This place has excellent food! They take healthy eating and make it interesting. It’s not the flavorless stuff you usually get from a healthy raw vegan place. They were very polite and helpful when I asked questions about the menu and the atmosphere was cozy and charming. I would definitely recommend visiting them if you’re ever in St. Louis!

Pros: Healthy, Flavorful

Cons: Small Menu

Alright

Food was VERRY fresh! i got the taco bowl, it was pretty good. The “meat” was crazy amazing and made from carrot. I got a smoothie and hated it. It did not taste good at all, everyone at my table tried it and agreed, when trying to switch it for another smoothie I was treated rudely and told no and no refunds either. I will not be going back anytime soon because of the service I received. Otherwise I would! Maybe in the future sometime.

Pros: FRESH, Mostly Raw, GLUTEN FREE DESERT

Cons: Service , Parking

gorgeous place!

i had a wonderful late lunch here on a sunny afternoon!
i had the cold chai which was rich in flavour and very delicious. for food i chose the raw summer bowl - zucchini spaghetti with sprouts, mint, pineapple(!!), peppers and black sesame. it not only looked wonderful, it also tasted amazing! the dressing - even though a little too much, i'd say - was very nice, too!
atmosphere is very relaxed, the place wasn't too busy (maybe because of the time) and i just enjoyed sitting there for a while, resting my legs.
salad was 10 dollars after tax so not too bad. especially as it was a huge portion!
would visit anytime again! the menu sounds wonderful and there's breakfast all day long!!

Pros: choices & taste, atmosphere, location (not too far from forest park)

Cons: smoothies are a little pricey

OK...

This is not my favorite vegan place to eat in St. Louis, but I'm happy that they're here as an option for local veg*ns. I tried a raw dessert from them a while back (I believe it was a cheesecake) and it was good. I recently returned and tried the Not Yo Mama's BLT sandwich. This vegan BLT came with tempeh bacon, lettuce, tomato, and a homemade spicy mayo, all on waffle bread. The concept of using waffle as a bun is weird, but hey, whatever works. (Their current online photo of this shows avocado, but be advised that it's an extra $1 if you want the avocado.) For $6 it was a very small portion. Luckily, I didn't come for a full meal; I only wanted to sample, so I split this with a friend and it was literally gone in two bites. The flavor of the tempeh and the spicy mayo were delicious. Personally, I'm not a fan of the waffle bread though. It came with 2 orange wedges.

It was very quiet and clean in the cafe. They offer lots of raw options, but have cooked options as well. Yoga sessions and various classes are offered. Check their website for the monthly calendar.

Pros: clean eating

Cons: over-priced

PuraVegan is the best!

I LOVE PuraVegan! I always visit when I'm in Saint Louis. They have the most delicious dishes and they're always so fresh. I wish they had one where I live! I highly recommend the chili and waffle cornbread. They also have a mini market where you can buy chapsticks or supplements (I got some ayurvedic tea that saved me from a cold once) and a yoga studio attached. You don't want to miss this place!

Pros: Fresh, Delicious, THE BEST

Cons: None

PuraVegan has some of the best vegan options in STL! Great place to grab a bite to eat or a smoothie. And they have lots of great oil-free options as well!

Pros: Healthy and delicious, oil-free options, friendly staff

Cons: can be a bit intimidating for first non-vegans

Friendly Vegan Cafe!

I was looking for a place in the Central West End to grab a quick bite after my shift at Children's Hospital, and I'm so glad I found PuraVegan! The food is good, the staff is very friendly, and the quaint sidewalk cafe atmosphere makes it truly enjoyable. They have smoothies of all kinds, and for lunch a selection of vegan delights sure to leave you satisfied. My first time in I tried the mac and cheese, which was very good, my next visit I tried the BLT made with tempeh, and it was fantastic! For a quick vegan snack or lunch in the CEE, make sure you stop by and try their awesome menu! They also have Yoga, but I haven't tried that...yet! Lol

Pros: nice atmosphere, friendly staff, vegan menu

Acai bowl heaven

I used to love down the street from Pura Vegan and I had serious Acai bowl withdrawals once we moved. Everything I've tried off of their menu is delicious and they make it with so much love!
