Take a Trip to The Tin Thistle - Edit
I was driving through North Bend with my mother. We stopped in for lunch. We were both very impressed with all the food. The special sweet potato mango chutney soup had great flavor and a nice level of spiciness. The potato salad that came with my BBQ Village Burger tasted great. The burger was crispy on the outside with nice texture inside. The pie tasted great. It had flax in the crust. It was one of the best pie crusts I've ever tasted. I would recommend going to North Bend just to eat here.

Fresh and delicious food - Edit
I got the barbecue burger, which was freshly made in house from whole food ingredients; for a side, I selected a simple salad (it's too easy to consume only overly rich food when traveling). I also enjoyed a delicious smoothie. The people there are very friendly.
Read morePros: Food is freshly made in house , Intriguing choices, and everything is vegan, Interesting art decor
Cons: Open only five days a week and for limited hours

Extraordinary - Edit
Such a great treat to discover this really, really great vegan restaurant. We were brand new vegans and the quality of the food, the beautiful presentation, the taste... WOW. This place could really help a folks who are curious about veganism or vegetarianism learn just how tasty WFPB living can be. The staff was wonderful, the atmosphere funky, classy, fun, comfortable. Can't wait to head north and visit again. Number 1 in my book!
Read morePros: Delicious, Affordable, Lots of variety
Cons: 2 hours away from home

A special place along hwy 101 - Edit
We stopped here for an excellent lunch. The choice of vegan food was outstanding. The BBQ burger was by far the best vegan burger I have ever tasted. Oats,walnuts,onions and spices for the burger and homemade BBQ sauce grilled onions and mushrooms to top it off.

Great recovery from road trip eating - Edit
Popped in here on a road trip after a couple of days of garbage eating. We shared a large fiesta bowl, spicy corn chowder (soup of the day), and a piece of marionberry pie. All good, fresh, left feeling nourished. Vibe is: order at the counter and they bring it to you (or order to go). Not sure what is “Celtic themed” about it but that’s fine! Nice sized tables and chairs, street parking.

Amazing Vegan Food! - Edit
I love this place! The food is so delicious, and I love that they are fully vegan. The service is excellent. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Tin Thistle has a great atmosphere and beautiful outdoor patio for dining. I ate here twice while I was visiting North Bend, OR. I brought my Omnivore friends and family here to eat with me, and they loved it! They also have a great selection of creamy vegan sauces including mayo and tzatziki. I will definitely eat here again next time I'm in the area.

Excellent food in friendly atmosphere - Edit
Amazingly delicious vegan food in a nicely decorated cafe style restaurant on the main street. The food is tasty, and I have no doubt that it would please vegetarians/vegans and omnivores alike because of the excellent, flavorful dishes and seasonal touches. The service prompt and friendly: this restaurant was a remarkable and lucky find for us and not to be missed!

A nice find! - Edit
My husband and I had the pleasure of trying out the Tin Thistle Garden Cafe earlier this week. After ordering our food, we went to the garden at the back side of the restaurant to eat. It was lovely, a pleasant place to relax.
Read moreI ordered the Punjabi bowl, which was curried lentils on salad with what tasted like a nut-based sour cream. My husband had an Aztec wrap. Both were good.
I will definitely return to try more on their menu.
Pros: Great food!, Large restaurant space and cozy garden space, Helpful and friendly staff
Cons: A bit on the expensive side

Fabulous!! - Edit
I love this place! I eat here as many times as possible while visiting my sister. Everything is fabulous - especially the burgers & sweet fries. I love their desserts - the cookies are awesome & the cranberry blackberry pie was amazing! Also the pasty - the crust is wonderful. The people who work their couldn’t be nicer. The place is very clean & cheerful. Wish I lived closer - I would eat here all the time!!! Can’t wait for next visit.

What a gem - Edit
This was my first stop for my first eat out meal after moving here. The staff were so friendly, and the food was delicious. It was really nice knowing I didn't have to clarify what they cooked what with or in, that wasn't vrg/vegan. It's got a really relaxing vibe and the garden was secluded and cozy. This area needs more places like this!!!!

Delicious Burger - Great Service - Edit
Stopped in with the family before they closed as we were traveling and are a vegan family.
Read moreServer was the daughter of owner and told us not to worry about rushing out the door. Traveling w a 2 yr old that was much appreciated.
So their patio was perfect for my little guy to walk around and explore and play with his toys while I drank some coffee and waited for my food.
Once the food arrived I was a little hesitant about their nut burger but it was ah-mazing! I had a lettuce wrap as they did not have gluten free buns.
Ordered a blackberry smoothie to go, de-lish. And grabbed 3 different pie slices on my way out that I have yet to try but should help for the rest of my trip today.
Very happy with everything! Bonus: Super cozy interior and patio.

Healthy vegan home cooking! - Edit
Delicious healthy vegan comfort food! I'm not a big veggie burger gal but theirs was so delicious and I'd totally order it again. Their menu is pretty small but there's something for everyone and the pie with ice cream after was a perfect finish, we had a 5 hour drive ahead of us after our meal and left feeling energized and not at all groggy. Road trippers should stop here!!!
