Great vegan options!

I ordered the vegan Italian meatball sub and it was delicious. My friends got udon noodles and soba noodles. We also came back later to get their delicious vegan cake options. I got the chocolate cake and my friends got the carrot cake, the key lime cheesecake, and the vegan pudding. It was overall very good and there was great service

Pros: Diverse vegan options, Good service, Nice atmosphere

Best vegan option in Key West

The menu has some animals but is heavily whole food plant based. Got the signature kung pao tofu, and vegan carrot cake… divine!

Pros: Many vegan options , Healthy , Good value

Delicious breakfast

While visiting Key West, I treated myself to a relaxing solo breakfast. This was exactly what I needed! The atmosphere was cheerful and relaxing, the service was attentive without hovering, and the food was AMAZING! I had the tofu scramble with breakfast potatoes; everything was cooked to perfection. I took a slice of coconut cake & carrot cake to enjoy later with my non-vegan hubby. Both flavors of cake were moist and flavorful.

Pros: nice menu choices, delicious vegan desserts, friendly service

Best Vegan in Key West

Wonderful food. We plan to eat as many meals there as we can. Love the Keylime cheesecake. Blackened tofu wrap was my favorite so far.

Back again- tried the Cashew Chicken salad. It was delicious.

Nice Find Just Of Duval

Very experienced "Cafe" has been around for decades. The menu offers omnivorous choices, but of course, us Vegans are well catered for. Veggies are super fresh. Large variety in cooking styles.

Pros: Very good quality of the dishes, Very friendly staff, Location

Amazing food, great atmosphere!

I’m a vegetarian and came here with non-vegetarian family. We all loved all of the food we got, including the pepper’steak’ and swiss, the grande burrito, and the udon noodles with tofu. Portions were large, and left us full but not in an unpleasant way. So many vegan and vegetarian options to choose from. Overall, highly recommend!! Will definitely be coming back.

Pros: Good portions, Friendly staff, Delicious vegan food

Amazing!

The portions were huge and everything was amazing. Ordered spinach gyoza dumplings & un-wing dings at our table for appetizers. Blackened tofu wrap & spicy szechuan stir fry with seitan for main dishes. Everything was just delicious.

"Vegan" in seafood oil if fried

Great place but "Vegan" tofu is fried in oil that seafood is fried in UNLESS you know to request it to be prepared a different way than is said on menu. They worked with my food allergies and meal was delicious.

Pros: Good food, Prepared per my allergies

Cons: Fried tofu in oil where seafood is fried

Awesome gem in Key West

Wow, we were so impressed with The Cafe, we went back two days in a row! The first day I had the 'meatball' sub which was delicious! The second day I had the pepper 'steak' and swiss sandwich (made from seitan). My mum had the veggie burger and husband had the blackened tofu wrap. All were excellent! However the pepper 'steak' sandwich was insanely good. I highly recommend this place. They have lots of vegan and vegetarian options, as well as one or two fish options. We loved it! The staff are lovely and the place is adorable with art on the walls and good vibes.

Pros: The awesome menu, The tasty food

Many vegan dishes

I had a very tasty quesadilla filled with grilled onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, fried tofu and cheese. Make sure you ask for vegan. It came with a side of guacamole, fresh tomato salsa and sour cream. They were out of the roasted squash dish. The place is one block off Duval on Souther Street. They have several beers on tap and a standard selection of wines. Very cute decor and great service!

Great vegan choices

This is our first time to try the café. It had come recommended by others for delicious vegan food and it was true! Lots of nice options. We had the veggie burger and the stuffed butternut squash. Both were excellent. We also try to kombucha and the watermelon Juice drink. Yummy! For dessert we tried the carrot cake and it was awesome. We will go back soon. Service excellent as well. 

Pros: Many choices, Good service

So good!! High quality vegan.

As vegans, we are always settling for decent vegan food. This place has high quality delicious food. We kept coming back. I had the tofu scramble breakfast burrito, the meatball parm, the carrot cake, and iced coffee. My daughter had the tacos. Everything was delicious and high quality. Only negative is they do not have time for customizations.

Good Vegan Options!

We went here for dinner one night, and breakfast the next day! Hubby had the vegan pizza, which was very good and big enough for two. I had the blackened tofu salad, which was great but just a little bit small. For breakfast , we had the breakfast wrap and the ranchero scramble - both were very good. The matcha latte was great!

Pros: Nice selection of vegan options

Cons: Dinner service was slower than we are used to

Cow cheese added

Asked for vegan quesadillas and confirmed with waitress it was vegan. After eating one we asked what kind of cheese it was because it didn’t taste like other vegan cheese I’ve had. Found out it was cow cheese. I’m gonna go puke. Be careful ordering from this place.

Good food

The food was good. I had the fettuccine with red sauce and Vegan meatballs. The meatballs were the frozen Gardin brand. That is ok but I could have easily made it at home. It would be nice if they made their own meatballs since pasta and red sauce is such an easy dish to make. The waitress seemed a little impatient. She got annoyed when we asked her questions. Almost like we were bothering her. I am glad that they have a lot of Vegan options though. I would probably order something different if I go again and hope that I get a more patient waitress.

Pros: A lot of Vegan options , Cute atmosphere

Cons: Serve fish , Serves cow milk and cheese , Impatient waitress

Great food, awful service

If you have nothing else to do but wait, the food here is good. Be prepared to wait over an hour for food, and not have drinks filled or be checked on at all. We won’t be back - there are plenty of other options with less hassle.

Pros: Food tastes good, Plenty of vegan options

Cons: Slow, unapologetic service, No drink refills or checkups during our wait
