Great to have a vegan option. Food is creative and good, but the service was unfriendly to the point of rudeness. Order taker never spoke to me. Took about 30 minutes to get one sandwich and they just dumped it on a rack, didn’t call my name. I walked over to check the ticket to see if it was mine and as I stood there, the worker shoved me aside to leave the booth.

Worth going to the Milwaukee Public Market just to go here. We got the Cuban sandwich and it was great. Loved the milkshake as well. They sell lots of small treats and other to go foods as well

This is a great vegan spot in downtown Milwaukee right in the Milwaukee Public Market. As the MPM is around meal times, it can get pretty busy and you can get easily lost into the crowd. I didn’t have to wait too long before ordering, I had their ice cream, so it was ready quickly! Not being a vegan myself, I cant speak on the quality of their food compared to other vegan restaurants around Milwaukee. It seems to have lots of options and everything I see looks pretty good! Love the cute bus too!

Very good peanut-cocoa smoothie and blueberry-peanut bowl. The staff is kind, I’m allergic to peanuts and the changed for me the peanut butter for almond butter. I’ll come for more, thank you!

The sandwiches are pretty good! It’s a cute little set up. Across from this place is a bunch of vegan chocolate bars. The ice cream was delicious and cream. Yummy bread, “bacon” seemed a bit off The staff was not very friendly and not very informative. The fries were old and stale. The smoothie/shakes were not available. Only the ice cream was available. Every question I asked seemed like it was a bother to the cashier.

I was super excited to try this vegan restaurant, since it is cute and has lots of the foods I enjoy as a vegetarian. Right off the bat the staff was extremely rude. I tried ordering and the women taking my order interrupted me and barked “NAME!” She used no manners or customer service when taking mine or my friends orders. The staff were all slow and lazy, they were often found talking instead of making orders. I then proceeded to wait for my order, and watched for 30 minutes as people who ordered after me got their order first. I then politely asked how much longer for my food to be ready. The women then proceeded to lie to me and try to gaslight me into believing she called out my name multiple times and I wasn’t paying attention so someone must have stolen it. There is no way that could have been the case since I was waiting with 3 of my friends in front of the pickup line and at least one of us would have heard or seen it. She then proceeded to walk away and come back with my exact order and told me “Luckily we have an extra.” I know that that was a lie since I watched them make many smoothie bowls before mine and they made them all fresh. My smoothie bowl was runny, probably since it had been sitting for 30 minutes after the staff forgot about it. I would have had no problem if they were up front about forgetting about it as mistakes happen. However, for them to lie about it and blame me as if I was the one to make the mistake is just wrong. Needless to say I won’t be returning.

Their Sweet Pink Smoothie made with strawberry, banana, mango, and OJ got sunshine coursing through my veins after a long weekend of city shenanigans. Juiced & Jazzed up.

Cute shop set up with lots of options for food and drinks. I got there blue peanut açaí bowl and it was good but not the best I’ve had for $11. It was smaller than I expected, softer so it melted fast and not as aesthetic looking.
