One of my favorites! - Edit
Sweetpea was one of my go-to bakeries/cafes when I lived in Portland. Never had anything here I didn't like!

No need to read labels and friendly staff. Bring back the Sunday buffet!
After getting your Sweetpea on...check out nearby Herbivore, Food Fight, and Scapegoat tattoo to get your groove on at this unique vegan mini mall...a must to any visit to Portland.
Pros: Sunday Buffet

Herbivore, Scapegoat, and that Food Fight! location all closed.

*chef’s kiss* - Edit
Came for lunch and could not be happier with what I ate! I got the Higgins (think vegan Italian) and it was so yummy. Came with a side salad. In addition, my group split a coconut pecan scone (soooo good) and their “Charlie brown” treat which was a chocolate, peanut butter, and graham cracker crust thing that was delightful.
Read moreThe service took a little bit, but I think we hit them when a bunch of folks were coming in. Definitely should be on your “to visit” list!

Great Impromptu Stop - Edit
My husband was hungry and I wasn't so we stopped in here and I'm so glad we did. He got the Portlander-a huge plate of every yummy vegan breakfast food. I got a small chicken Caesar salad which was the perfect light meal, especially after I added a piece of the tempeh bacon from the Portlander into it. Kind staff, great vibe, lots of locals.

Very disappointed:( Baked goods seem very hit or miss. - Edit
Went to sweet pea and got a chocolate chip cookie, blueberry coffee cake, and a tofu scramble croissant. The cookie was really good, and had a nice texture. But the blueberry coffee cake was very tough almost like a dry sponge? And not moist…almost seemed like it had been overcooked or left out too long. (I went in the morning though) The tofu scramble croissant was bad as well, not very flaky like a croissant should be, and the middle was very raw, like play dough. So raw that I just ate the tofu scramble inside and only the first layer of the outside, I had to discard the rest since it was just way too undercooked. Overall disappointed because there was so much hype around it.
Read morePros: Cookie
Cons: Hit or miss, Undercooked croissant, Overdone blueberry coffee cake

Obsessed - Edit
I’m obsessed with their almond pastry and the Charlie Brown bar(also available at New Seasons 😁). So far, we have had the Grilled Cheese, Reuben and Untuna (grilled with cashew cheese 😋) Sandwiches and I would order all of them again. Probably one of the best Untuna and Reuben sandwiches I have had. Definitely a must stop while in Portland.

Come for the baked goods, stay for the sandwiches - Edit
Wow! I had the P. Cole sandwich for lunch this morning and haven’t stopped thinking about it. So much flavor stuffed between two slices of perfect ciabatta!

LOVE! - Edit
This is one of my favorite places in PDX! I came here for the first time 12 years ago and I made it a regular visit every time I was in town back in the day. Since I moved here a couple years ago it is my favorite go to. The sandwiches are amazing and I can’t pass up on grabbing those bomb wheat free chocolate chip cookies! Thank you for continuing to be amazing folks, serving up the yummy food and love!

Go early if you want a full selection! - Edit
I live within walking distance to Sweetpea, and it's dangerous. I have really enjoyed trying a variety of their baked goods- my favorites so far are the "ring" pastries and croissants. It's one of those places where I do a double take to make sure it's all vegan!
Read moreI've gone for weekend breakfast twice, and it's a nice selection. The waffles? WOW!
They also have a good selection of GF items!

Please mail me an almond croissant - Edit
Almond croissants are my absolute favorite baked good and this one was hands down the best. Big, fluffy, fresh, sweet (but not too sweet), lightly dusted with powdered sugar… I’m literally salivating reminiscing about it. Run, don’t walk to Sweetpea. You’ll be very glad you did.

Options - Edit
We stopped in to try it as one of the vegan bakery options. Honestly, not memorable. I could barely remember what the inside looked like. I ordered a sweet chai latte and the strawberry cheesecake… the latte was a no go but the cheesecake was good. We stopped in the afternoon so we had virtually no other pastry to choose from.

Excellent - Edit
Loved this place so much that I went three times in two weeks with various groups of veg/omni people. The scone was the best I’ve ever had and the chocolate chip cookie was the best my omni daughter has ever had. I would also recommend the the danish and cappuccino. They have breakfast/lunch options that look amazing as well… I’ll be back for one of those!

A real gem! - Edit
Loved this place! Got a portlander breakfast (tofu scramble, tempeh bacon, waffle with syrup). Well worth the price. Huge portions, good vibes. Pastries looked amazing! They also sell boxes of day-old pastries for cheap.

So much to try - Edit
Croissants, pan au chocolate, danishes, and all the wonderful baked things sold out before you can even make it to the counter. Savory breakfast scrambles, satisfying lunch sandwiches, always good coffee. I’ve eaten some wonderful things, and some pretty good things, occasionally something strange. Don’t let that deter you, it’s just my opinion. Overall, I recommend checking out Sweetpea, you’ll probably enjoy it!

Might have ordered the wrong thing - Edit
We came for coffee and D decided to try a pastry. He said the pain au chocolat was too heavy and dense. He said he would come back and try something else. I’d be interested in trying something savory from the menu. The coffee was good!

Vegan Pit Spot in PDX - Edit
Haven’t been for quite some time, happy to find it thriving. It’s a welcoming coffee shop offering food options, all vegan of course.
Read moreThe hot tea was delicious and so was the pain au chocolat, however this girl isn’t huge on chocolate. I liked the powdered sugar on top, the rest was too much chocolate for me.
Would recommend to others in the area - vegan mini mall is a must! Pastries are generous and vibe is unpretentious. They were playing raver beats at 10AM.
FYI, bathroom is very punk/grunge.
Pros: All Vegan/Plant-Based Establishment, Located Near Other Vegan Shops, Friendly Service and Open Area
Cons: Very Industrial Vibe

Legendary! - Edit
First of all, the Breakfast Sammie was the best vegan breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had, hands down, and I’ve eaten many. It’s huge and everything about it is perfect: the scrambled tofu is super flavorful & saucy, the roll was fresh, the tempeh bacon is amazing & they do not skimp. There were slices of tempeh that covered the whole thing. So nice we ordered it twice on our short trip to Portland.
Read moreWe also had multiple pastries. Sweetpea has vegan danishes, which are pretty rare to find, as well as scones, croissants and muffins. Everything we had was fantastic. Believe the hype!
