Really good little vegan restaurant in a super cute town! The restaurant is small with only 3 tables and some stools inside. There are more tables outside with a good amount of seating. They serve breakfast, burgers, salads, wraps, smoothies, desserts, and more! We had a wrap, burger, hot dog and smoothie and enjoyed everything! The best was the Rocket Fuel protein smoothie. My only suggestion for improvement is to have more topping included for the hotdog which would make it really awesome. But overall I really enjoyed it here and will go back 🙂

100% vegan with many gluten free options. Lots of baked goods on display. Yummy smoothies, but no smoothie bowls on the menu. Love the outdoor tables with umbrellas. Lots of options with homemade food, and a number of processed options too (impossible burger, cheeses, etc.)

Great vegan cafe tucked away in downtown Clinton right by the river. Excellent selection of smoothies, drinks and cafe fare. Highly recommend!

My partner and I stopped in for a bite this past weekend and, sorry to say, we were disappointed. You get very little food for the price and the quality wasn’t there. He got the Fakin’ Egg & Chez, I got the Bacon Burger and we each got a bottle of pomegranate soda. It was $35. There were no chips, pickles or anything served with our sandwiches and the sandwiches themselves were not generous in size.

I really wanted to love this place- finally a vegan place for me to go to. It is a cute, very small venue with a nicely rounded menu. All that said- the owner/ manager/ employee that took our order was NOT someone that needs to deal with the public, She was rude, curt, obviously was not thrilled we came in. If she is not the owner here is a little bit of advice to the owner: people with come to a restaurant with ok food but they will NOT keep coming to a place where they don’t feel welcome. Just for reference- we are Caucasian adults that live in this area- we won’t be going back unless we find out they have trained their staff about hospitality.

Yummy little Cafe! Plant based clean eating! Many choices, good smoothies too! Open on Mondays too! Could have used an extra person, but hey all restaurants are short staffed now!

Excellent! Great service and fantastic food at Grounded for Life Cafe. We ordered the sunshine burger wrap and it was fresh and delicious. The location has a feel good vibe with nice outdoor seating. This a must visit when in Clinton and I highly recommend trying them out.

Absolutely delicious!!! My boyfriend and I took his mother here and all 3 meals were great! Just wish they had inside seating. Only one table inside and someone was working on their computer. Outside seating is pretty, it was just too cold. We will definitely be back!

The baked goods made us take dookies like wookies They tasted stale, unlike like the Vegan Treats bakery. This happened to all 4 of us. Food was mediocre to good, but highly recommend against the not fresh baked goods, unless you want to make baked goods for your septic system.
