What a find! - Edit
We were a couple of out-of-towners looking for a good vegan lunch with tea accompaniment. Snapdragon to the rescue! It's a beautiful little cafe, and we received a warm welcome from the staff. At noon on a Friday, there were several open tables. We hadn't booked ahead for a proper tea party, but Chef Vanessa herself presented our order on an elegant, tiered platter. We had Scottish Breakfast tea in an antique pot, and our table was set with white cloth napkins and charmingly mismatched china pieces.
Read moreThe food was just amazing--a tempeh Reuben sandwich on marbled bread with melty vegan cheese and what tasted like homemade sauerkraut took first prize. We also loved the Mediterranean sandwich. Other vegan sandwiches and salads on the menu sounded equally tempting.
All five flavors of scone that day were vegan, so after sharing two for dessert, we had to order more to take home. Pumpkin-ginger, cherry-almond, blueberry-lemon--we thought we'd died and gone to heaven. Dense, moist and not too sweet, each one was a marvel. Baking of this quality is something rare.
We'll be making Snapdragon a regular stop on our frequent visits to Albuquerque.
Pros: Near UNM, Cozy atmosphere
Cons: Metered parking (but right by the cafe)

Wonderful vegan tea party! - Edit
Lovely little spot where you can reserve a three course vegan tea party. The day I went, all the sweet pastries were vegan, and there were many vegan options for savory, including a vegan kolache. Also, the servers were kind and knowledgeable.

Cons: The tea party is a little pricy

Charming and Delicious - Edit
We really enjoyed the food at Snapdragon. It's a charming restaurant with excellent food and amazing teas. The owner knows her teas quite well and has picked each tea for its quality. Plus she knows how to brew teas to show off their excellent characteristics. It seemed like most of the dishes could be made vegan and a fair number could be made gluten-free. We each had a breakfast burrito and a pastry: banana nut bread for me and blueberry blue cornbread for my husband. (Both were vegan and gluten-free.) Phenomenal! Many restaurants make teas and pastries too sweet, but here everything was well-balanced and flavorful. We will be back.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We love to meet other people who are excited by tea. And absolutely agree that tea and food can be just as flavorful without being overly sweet. We look forward to seeing you again!
