Drunken Cowgirl, hands down. Plus they have just about every non-dairy milk option you would want for your morning latte.

Service and food were amazing! I got the breakfast tofu scramble and my parents got the pancakes and philly cheese. Will come back!
Elie BleierDecember 29, 2014
Reuben, almost macro bowl are solid options. Must try an egg cream or a milk shake (with added whip cream)!

Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Not to mention the super tasty veggie food.

Delicious vegan and vegetarian diner fare. The wait can get insane on the weekends but it's worth it.
Boris JonesApril 8, 2015
With retro decor and a chilled, casual vibe, this is a popular spot among the locals – expect a short wait, though it is worth it. Read more

Biscuits n gravy w/ a side of kale. Drizzle hot sauce on kale. Eat. Feel awesome.

Great service, classic counter dining and DELICIOUS vegan food. Try the vegan chili and grab a vegan pastry on your way out. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Get the Cubano. Do it. Do it now! Sorry if that came off pushy, I'm just looking out for you stranger. But for real, get the Cubano.

Pricey. Breakfast better than other meals. Usually a wait but put your name down and head to a bar nearby.
Sabrina NelsonNovember 14, 2015
Try sitting at the bar to enjoy folks behind bar Aaron is a pure energetic joy

The menu offers a lot of variety, but ultimately lacks creativity. There are so many vegetables and legumes they could be using to create delicious dishes while staying away from the fake Chick'n etc

The caulifire wings are so tasty and don’t skip on the Kickin Cowgirl and Cinnamon Swirl pancakes 💜

Everything is vegan. The pear and Ginger scone is delicious: perfect balance of ginger and pear, not too strongly spiced, and the texture is perfectly crumbly without being dry. Thumbs up.

The Mexican style bowl is dry, the meatball one is great with a side of roasted kale (mmm garlic).
Margaret WolkAugust 7, 2015
Vegan pancakes got me like :-))))) gluten free items and replacements- there's good vibe from the customers and staff

Great vegan food, smoothies, diner, seitan, coffee.

The chick’n burger is beautiful as are the tots and literally everything else on the menu!

Best vegan brunch spot. Take your non-vegan friends too. They will not be disappointed.

Great vegan diner! I love making a trip out to Brooklyn to enjoy their yummy foods!

Go for the breakfast burrito! The tofu scramble is perfectly seasoned. Skip the buffalo wings

Get the SAG breakfast sandwich. You will not be disappointed.

Everything looks delicious here! I had the burrito breakfast. But our server was rude. Friendly to other tables - maybe they were regulars?!
Adil IbrahimAugust 23, 2015
Got the chicken and waffles...probably should have ordered something more nutritious. The waffles were crispy, and the soy chicken was good. It was regular diner level stuff, nothing mind blowing.

Champs is the one place I really miss after moving out of nyc. Classic diner food vegan style.

Always awesome, always incredible! Their Reuben is out of this world! #vegan #what 🌿🌿🌿🌱🌱🌱
John DavidApril 2, 2012
The coffee is delicious and bottomless, food has never disappointed me and the service is incredibly friendly. Skip the Second Stop and walk a block further to Champs, it'll be worth it.

The Rueben Sandwich is amazing as is the breakfast enchiladas. Plus they always seem to be playing great music!
inna katsDecember 6, 2017
I'm in love. If I never eat meat, dairy or eggs ever again, I'll be fine-- as long as the food is from this place.
Liese BiesJuly 19, 2015
It's ALL vegan! Very friendly staff and willing to meet up to your dietary wishes.
Chris GampatMarch 16, 2018
Even if you’re not a vegan you can find something very enjoyable here. I sure as heck do!

Love this place. Might want to come flr late brunch since there's always a wait. Eveyone here is so nice and cute!
JackalopeJuly 1, 2013
if you get the biscuits & gravy i highly suggest you sub sauteed greens for the standard salad for only +1, goes perfectly!

These are the best vegan pancakes I've ever had. And I try them everywhere they're available. Hell of an establishment, this one.
Joe SicariApril 2, 2014
Hell a good vegan diner food and one of the best cups of coffee you can still get your hands on.
Nancy LinMay 31, 2016
The skillet hash is amazing. Lots of color!
Johannes KotschyOctober 16, 2016
Awesome food and really good service...! I'll be back! 😎✨

Kind enough to make me an iced mocha. A little lighter on the sweetness but I love it indeed.
Alexis BrillSeptember 8, 2012
Croque Madame for brunch is delish! Their deserts are also mind-blowing. Only downside: Cash only.

I loved the super good and light whip cream that comes on top of the fruit
ArjunSeptember 3, 2022
Underwhelming vegan breakfast/diner food. Pancakes were okay but tofu scramble just tasted of pepper and hash browns were very oily. Very friendly staff though!
That GirlJanuary 28, 2019
If you’re here for brunch, be prepared to wait. Get a donut at Dunwell on the next block to pass the time.

Get the Drunken Cowgirl! Super satisfying and delicious! Tofu Scramble, Bell peppers, Chorrizo sausage, chili, and garlic bread!

Great little spot. Great vibe...great service...great food. Loved the Cubano! Mmmmmm.
Julia GélioMarch 15, 2017
mozzarella sticks and philly cheese steak are amazing!! Champs ❤
Marissa MessnerJune 14, 2015
Everything is delicious. Try the French toast slam and the tofu Benedict!
Afi Yellow-DukeAugust 1, 2015
The food was really good (and I'm not even vegan!) and priced reasonably. The decor was funny, too, if you like the ironic crafty thing. But, we had an incredibly rude waitress. Unsure if I'd return.

The Club Racer is awesome ! I always get the Burger though.... Cheapest and by far the ABSOLUTE BEST veggie burger in NY!!! Vegan cheese too!!
