Delicious vegan food, the first time we came we didn’t realize it was vegan! Everything tastes great, our favorite is the Reuben and kids love the Mac and cheese, vegan versions of course. It’s a bit of a wait but the dining room is cute and sunny, a pleasant place to hang out. The lemonade is also delicious.

My wife is vegan, so it’s difficult when traveling to find a place where she can actually have a whole menu to choose from.

we came in for a late lunch today and it was soooo good. the staff was so friendly, and helped guide me through the different items and ingredients (i’m new to the vegan food scene!). we sat in a little nook next to the kitchen. the atmosphere was so cute, i loved the plants and wall art. the food was delicious! we had the buffalo crane, the mushroom melt burger, mac and cheese, and the cookie dough bar. everything was just SO good. & you would never even know it’s 100% vegan! all in all it was such a great experience, i’m so happy we stopped in today and we will definitely be back! thank you, Take Two for a great lunch. 🙂

Absolutely awesome. I’m vegetarian, not vegan, but it was amazing to have a place where every sandwich on the menu was friendly to my diet. My boyfriend who doesn’t follow any special diets said the potato salad was better than real potato salad with dairy and eggs. High praise, and I agree.

I stopped here during an Amtrak layover and it was such a wonderful experience! I got the Reuben and Mac and cheese and both were incredible and came out super quick. The ambience and walkable neighborhood is also fantastic. The staff was super kind and gave me a recommendation for another cafe I could go work at when they closed. I would move to Schenectady just for this place!

This place is fabulous! It’s a quirky little artsy Cafe that’s 100% plant based and the food is scrumptious! My whole family ate there, even though they aren’t vegan…and everyone LOVED it!

The pastrami sandwich is amazing. The way they cook the eggs is better than any other vegan breakfast spot. Not too fluffy and not too rubbery. Perfect

Found this cafe after looking for veggie friendly restaurants in the area…The “No Clucks Given” sandwich was delicious, as was the mac and cheese, and thoroughly enjoyed the coffee. Friendly, fast service, clean welcoming atmosphere. Definitely will be back!

Such an amazing menu here, was a tough decision picking what to eat. I went with the Triple decker w/ Chipotle pot salad. My wife go the Reuben w/ Mac & cheese. Everything was just busrting with fresh flavors. Highly recommend checking this spot out if in the area and hungry. Also have top notch sweets as well. Got the maple pecan pie and nutter butter cheesecake nothing disappointed here.

Great vegan spot with lots of menu choices and awesome baked goods! NOTE: Minus 0.25 ⭐ for having no customer bathroom; definitely a negative to relaxing there when you’ve had a large coffee.
