Soup gal!

I enjoyed my butternut squash soup and PB Power Choc smoothie (minus the maple syrup). A little disappointed to not find my cardboard soup container not filled to the top so went back and asked them to top it off. Also bought a package of granola. Enjoyed everything!

Pros: Creamy hot soup, Thick smoothie, Good service/easy parking

Cons: Be generous w/soup portion

can't go wrong

I'm a frequent visitor and the place is always lively with activity - on both sides of the counter. There are a number of great options - bowls, smoothies, toasts, etc - my default is the Green Protein.

An açaí bowl worth the money

The açaí bowls here are HUGE and well worth the $10. They have so many different flavors and everything can be customized further. One of the best places in town and a must visit if you’re in the area!

Pros: So many options , Huge portions , Just so tasty

Awesome smoothies and great juices

Great place to visit if you are around. A breather in the middle of Maryland humidity and heat!

Always Fresh. Always Whole. Always Humble

I love Rutabaga! They offer so many vegan-friendly and plant-based options! The smoothie bowls are delicious and they offer many flavor varieties depending on your palette. The blends/smoothies are super tasty and easy to take on the go! Whether you're in a rush or in a chill mood come stop by and grab some fresh cold-pressed juice and many other goodies from the fridge; like salads and sandwiches. Rutabaga also offers open-faced toasts and soup for those HANGRY days! This place is such a wonderful spot! Come to rutabaga and stay humble!

Pros: Many Vegan Options, Plant - Based Options, Gluten Free Options & Subsitutions

Tasty Toasts

I got the Avocado toast and also the Hummus toast, and they were really tasty. The Hummus toast flavors of beet hummus, cucumber, pumpkin seeds, and microbasil were good. Probably my first time having microbasil. I forgot to order on the vegan bread, so I will be back to see what that tastes like. I ordered to-go and the service was good as well. So glad to have this vegan/vegetarian eatery in Annapolis!

Cute vegan(?) place

It says vegetarian restaurant, but if you look at the menu on the Facebook page everything seems vegan (no animal milk, cheese, or eggs). I got a tempeh blt and a goddess salad, and my husband got a smoothie bowl. Sooooo good!

Pros: Lots of choices, Healthy

Cons: A bit of a walk from downtown Annapolis

One of the best shops with vegan options

There aren’t a lot of vegan options in the Annapolis area so this place is a breath of fresh air. They carry loads of vegan options (even a vegan kombucha float). They have bowls, sandwiches, and pressed juice. It isn’t a strictly vegan shop.

Pros: Best shop with vegan options in the area.

Cons: Pricier than the rest of the area, Not strictly vegan

Love Love Love

A friend found this place right by the reiki practice in Downtown Annapolis and it has great vegan snacks and drinks, plus more eco-conscious plastics.

Pros: Loads of fresh vegan options, Healthy options galore

Cons: Average pricing (but worth it!)

cute spot with great healthy options

Considering that Annapolis doesn't have all that much for vegans besides Whole Foods, I was pleased to find Rutabaga. It's just a tiny place with very few meal options but the day I went they were offering a vegan soup as well as salads and bowls. A lot of the salads come with feta, unfortunately. The juices are delicious and come in several varieties. You can either buy a bottle or ask for them to press a fresh one for you. I didn't try any smoothies but they had several options. Kombucha on tap plus hot teas available.

Pros: fresh green juice, vegan options

Cons: serves dairy

Hi turtle veg! Thanks for giving us a try. We're sorry the week you came, we didn't have as many vegan options as you'd hoped. I can say, we no longer serve dairy as a base for any of our smoothies (although we do have on hand for requests) and we housemake our almond milk so no gums or fillers. We focus on clean eating, but attempt to make vegan options often. Our soup is housemade by us from scratch and always vegan. Our salads and bowls we try to always have 1 of the 2 be a vegan option. I think you got us on an odd week where both were not. Our food options are limited as you mentioned because we make everything in house from scratch including our dressings and sauces. However we change them up every two weeks to keep things varied and interesting! I hope to see you in again soon to check out some more of what we have to offer!
