After a long road trip this menu was super refreshing. The vibes inside & in the downtown area around the cafe were great, it was a nice way to see/experience Laramie. I got 2 orders of the kimchi pancake appetizer and it was amazing. I would highly recommend it!!

The Best Vegan Food Around - Edit
I’ve eaten here a bunch but this time I got the falafel pita, roasted sweet potatoes, and the peanut butter pie. So many vegan and vegetarian options. Easily the best restaurant in Wyoming and it’s not even close.

Vegetarian Food in Wyoming 😮 - Edit
Who knew a vegetarian restaurant in Wyoming existed? There is a great welcoming vibe inside and a tavern attached. More importantly, the food is quite good.

Cons: Could have more vegan options

Best restaurant in the state - Edit
It’s easy to be vegan at Sweet Melissa’s. They have a ton of vegan dishes and almost anything that isn’t vegan can have a vegan substitution. They treat the workers really well and the environment is super friendly!

Great Place - Edit
The atmosphere is cool; it’s an interesting building with unique art and decor. The menu clearly labeled vegan options. I had the seitan gyro with coconut rice and black beans and it was great. I also had the chocolate cake with a scoop of vegan ice cream which was awesome. Overall great place and I’m glad there’s a spot like this in Laramie.

This is the place to go in Laramie - Edit
Full vegetarian restaurant with many vegan options. The food differs in variety from lasagne to stir fries. I'm glad to see it was busy when I was a there. Very friendly staff that was hustling to keep up with the rush.

Incredible - Edit
It’s unfortunate that there are few to no vegan options in Wyoming but not here. Ordered the chips and cashew cheese, Banh Mi and impossible chicken fried steak. Everything was amazing including the service.

Best Meal on I-80 with ¡¡MOCKTAILS!! - Edit
Sweet Melissa is paradise for a vegan on a road trip. Consistent with the reviews the cauliflower wings were the best! We also tried half and half buffalo and BBQ. Mashed potatoes are heavenly with a hearty mushroom gravy. The mocktail Negroni goes above and beyond. All the special touches that we love. Great atmosphere, plenty of options.

One of The Best Veg Restaurants in US - Edit
Could not believe how good this place was! The food, the drinks, the ambiance!!! Perfect. I read reviews and ordered accordingly. Definitely don't skip their "wings" and if you can't decide between the 2 sauces, just get half and half. My partner liked the bbq sauce best and my vote was the more spicy buffalo, plus the vegan ranch, of course. Also splurged with a Moscow Mule, that was quite a splash of fun and matched the vibe of the place. I was saving room for dessert, so went for the Ukrainian Beet salad, which was really wonderful, while my partner had the Veggie Stir Fry with Thai Peanut sauce and yummy coconut rice. He was quite pleased. Had an apple crisp with vegan vanilla bean ice cream to finish. There were so many great things on the menu, and we saw many of them go by. I doubt you could go wrong here. Would imagine there might be a wait to get a table during popular times, but we were lucky enough to walk in and get a table quickly. Service was exceptional, efficient and friendly.

Delicious and so many choices! - Edit
The most vegan options I’ve seen in Wyoming! We had the vegan chick’n Caesar salad and the veggie stir fry. The chick’n had an amazing texture. The tofu on the stir fry was perfectly cooked and really well-marinated. Was glad our dog was permitted on the small patio. Will definitely be coming here anytime we are in the area!

Vegan Heaven in a Small Town - Edit
Absolutely loved this little (very vegan-friendly) vegetarian spot. Tons of clearly marked vegan options, super friendly service, & my meal was delicious. I ordered the Bahn Mi with fried garlic potatoes as the side, with some vegan ranch for dippin’ those taters, of course 🙃 There was an option for seitan or portabello on the sandwich, I went with the seitan, per my servers rec, & it was delicious - a total dupe for gyro meat. They have a gyro on the menu; I’ll probably try that whenever I stop through again. I was too full for dessert, but they had over 5 vegan dessert options 🤤.... can you tell I liked this place..!?
