Great place for lunch or breakfast

Took a group of Omni friends to this spot. They have a great brunch and lunch menu. I got the vegan brekkie samy. It was so good. My wife let me try her sloppy joe. The sauce was chef kiss. I also had a chocolate chip muffin. So good. My Omni friends said they liked it so much they’re coming back. Staff was friendly and very helpful to answer all our questions. 100% recommended

Great Food and Funky Vibe

This place was right around the corner from our AirBnB. Impossible sausage and tofu scramble with avocado and toast was just what I needed to start my day. My friend had the Breakfast Sammy and a smoothie. Order via smartphone or just let the server know what you want. Sidewalk dining is an option too.

Pros: No meat in sight or smelling range, No dairy or eggs, Fast service and reasonable prices

Great service and food

Service was amazing, it was super cute inside, and food was great!

Got two breakfast sandwiches and a chorizo burrito and everything was great. The breakfast sandwich was my favorite.

The brekkie sandwich!

The vegan breakfast brekkie sandwich here is amazing. Sooo good! Other options were also really good - I love the po boy, I loved all the shakes I tried here and rubys breakfast bagel. The brekkie sandwich is just the favorite.

Pros: Amazing brekkie sandwich, Great smoothies

Cons: They close pretty early😒at 2 pm on Sundays.

The Best All-Vegan Restaurant in the City??

It was a bummer when Celesta closed a few years ago, but taking its place is another awesome fully vegan restaurant! I've only tried a few items (so far) but am really impressed and want to continue trying more. Everything is flavorful and fresh, staff is super friendly, beverage choices are great, and their bakery items are incredible.

Pros: Fully vegan!, Good variety of options

Cons: Hours (not open past 2 pm)

Love, love, love this place!

Oh my goodness. We stopped for lunch at this super cute & friendly place when in Milwaukee & I had the best Bahn Mi sandwich I’ve ever had! We also ordered orange cranberry scones to go. Also fabulous! We definitely look forward to going back!

AMAZING

Everything about this place was just excellent. The food was absolutely delicious, the staff was so friendly, it feels so welcoming and peaceful here. My wallet would be in serious trouble if this place was in my hometown haha. We got the Ruby bagel and veggie burrito, along with a creamy berry smoothie and perfectly brewed peach blossom green tea. Again, just absolutely stellar.

Pros: Insanely delicious food, Super friendly staff, Great atmosphere

Cons: 5 hours away from where I actually live lol

Awesome Vegan Brunch

In town for Summerfest and looking for morning after brunch. Found Lafayette Place on Happy Cow. 100% vegan, Bullseye! Great chorizo burrito with hash browns and yummy bagel Sammy with tofu- neither disappointed. Desert of banana bread and cinnamon roll both were double yummy. Georgia, the manager is a rockstar.

Pros: Banana bread, Chorizo burrito , Service

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff

This is our favorite vegan breakfast/brunch place in Milwaukee! Food is delicious, and the space is a perfect corner cafe. The staff is super friendly and welcoming as well. Could not recommend more.

Vegan breakfast!

As you all know, it’s hard to breakfast/brunch as a vegan. Welcome to the mother-load! Satisfying and comforting food. If you are feeling up to a brunch drink I highly suggest the cold brew old fashioned.

Was looking for a vegan brunch spot with outdoor seating on a beautiful summer day and this place delivered! I ordered an oat milk cold brew with lavender, and the vegan brekkie. So good and filling.

Pros: All vegan menu! , Great prices and great flavor, Did I say it was delicious??

Cons: Small location

The space formerly occupied by Celesta is now Lafayette Place. It’s still cozy and the 100% vegan breakfast, brunch, and lunch are all mouth watering!

Pros: 100% vegan with Impossible choices, Cozy seating with lots of windows and light

Cons: Limited seating

Adorable & delicious

Just the cutest little place with the most delicious food. We loved our daily soup (it was phenomenal in its simplicity) and the vegan breakkie sandwich was wonderful as well. The staff was super friendly and helpful, too, and the ambiance is just lovely.

Pros: Fully vegan, Everything!

Great new place!

So far I've tried the veggie melt sandwich, chorizo burrito, and avocado toast and everything has been DELICIOUS so far. Whatever that "chipotle" sauce they use is fantastic and not really spicy at all, which I like.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Small, may be a wait on weekends , Only open for breakfast/lunch

Best vegan brunch in Milwaukee

Holy heck, this place is great. I went the morning they opened and returned the next two days because it really is phenomenal. The roasted vegetables (I think it was brussel sprouts, carrots, onion, mushroom, potato) in the cheesy hash and veggie melt were super well-seasoned and hearty. The tofu scramble in The Classic was REALLY great. Things were saucy and GOOD. You can tell they put a lot of effort into perfecting the flavors. I love that they use local vendors for many of their dishes (Rocket Baby bakery, Ruby's Bagels, Simple Soyman, etc). Excited to try the smoothies, because they sound really clever (peach basil; blueberry muffin; banana chai...).

FYI, this is located in the same spot where the old Celesta restaurant used to be.

Pros: Reasonable prices, Great flavors, Hearty portions

Cons: Small space

not just good but damn good

These people know what the hell they're doing! Only just soft opened and already spot on with service, drinks, timing, and flavors. Everything I've tried has been amazing. The menu is a handful of the best of the vegan goodies from The National with a bunch of fantastic new options. Can't wait to see what's next from this amazing new corner spot, they've really hit the ground running. Breakfast and lunch only so set your alarm.

Pros: 100% vegan, fast service, rock solid menu

Cons: parking may be iffy if you're in a car
