I was introduced to Veggies N'at at a Garfield Community Farm fundraiser. Their food is absolutely…read moreamazing. The chef changed his diet in 2017, on a path to eating more healthy foods. Everything on the menu is connected to mindful eating, loving and appreciating yourself, and improving your health and the way you feel about yourself. That sounds pretty heavy, but I recommend that you try it. It may not change your life, but at least you can appreciate how delicious it is, and how vibrant and healthy you feel after eating it. All the ingredients are fresh and healthy, you couldn't ask for anything more. Bottom line, it tastes fantastic.

I visited them last August while attending the VegFest and like many other places I've enjoyed over…read morethe years that I have yet to review I am just now getting around to leaving them one. So, actually a guy at the information booth was eating something from here and I asked him where he got it from because it looked very good and he recommended them to me. So we headed their way. Tbh: Every place that we wanted to eat at had a line 25-50 deep and we were super hungry and their line was only like 5-7 people deep which was a blessing. First off, the service in general was kind of crappy, but I understand as it was a hot and very busy day and from what they told my gf at the time they were getting low on food as well and only had a couple items that were left from the menu. After deciding what we wanted which was one of three things my gf at the time ordered us the Mac and Cheese and a container of ranch to take home while I looked for a place for us to eat. So after they handed her our food we headed over to an area with tables and chairs to eat the Mac and Cheese. I must say we both thoroughly enjoyed every single bit of it and my gf at the time isn't even vegan. So that says a lot! I highly recommended it :) FYI: The person who took her order also forgot to give her the container of ranch she paid for. I wasn't made aware that she purchased it until afterwards because my gf at the time wanted to surprise me but they didn't give her a receipt so she had no proof. Oh well, you live and learn, sadly! The vibe on this day was on point so we let the little things go in regards to the crappy service and the shorting us of an overpriced container of ranch fall to the wayside and continued on with our wonderful day, smiling and enjoying the amazing festival and area. If I decide to stop by your food trailer again this year at the festival or whenever I am somewhere you are posted up in front of, I hope you make up for your mistakes from last year because that's the right thing to do.

I noticed this spot on Google Maps because the idea of Trinidadian vegan fare appealed to me after gorging at Primanti Bros. the day before. It was a cute, bright space and fortunately not crowded. The menu looked tempting with unique dishes like Buss Up Shut (pull-apart bread with fillings) and Coconut Bake (traditional Trini bread). I decided to order the $15 Bowl of Coconut Rice with the choice of three toppings and a sauce. I went with okra, pumpkin, and stir-fried mushrooms.with a side of mango chutney (Photo 9). It was a delightfully housemade melange of Caribbean-style flavors. I've had similar West Indian food before, and this was definitely one of the fresher executions. Although intrigued by the Tamarind Ginger Drink, I decided to order the $4 Iced Coffee to wet my whistle (Photo 6). This led to my quick indulgence of the $3 Key Lime Cookie (Photo 8). If I lived in Pittsburgh, I'd be coming here often. Making Caribbean food vegan and delicious is no small feat.

After missing out on the most well known vegan spot in Pittsburgh due to the days of the week we…read morewere in town, I wanted to hit this spot. It seems too far for most people staying in downtown but it just so happens that we were on a road trip and therefore....had a car. Less than 10 min from downtown was all it took. No seating inside actually which gave me an excuse to wolf this shit down in the comfort of our rental car. Breakfast sandwiches were a given but I was struck by the adorable and enticing pastries and breads on display. There were a number of appealing contestants for my sandwich but the ubiquitous presence of my arch nemesis onions made it slightly challenging. We had spent the preceding few days in Cleveland and then Pittsburgh and while sauerkraut has a lot of nutritional benefits, it is somewhat lacking in protein so I felt comfortable with the "breakfast" with chickpea tofu egg scramble, roasted tomato mayo, vegan sausage and pickles on a nice, juicy bun. I admire the chickpea tofu egg it was a very nice replica for eggs. The sausage patty was gigantic and that mayo was so good. GF ordered the seitan melt with sauerkraut, red onion, oat cheese, pickles, toum, and roasted tomatoes. I tried some of the seitan which was doused in sauce and EXCELLENT. Our road trip bread supply was dwindling so we also got one of their whole grain sourdough loaves which is fantastic and still kicking 5 days later. Paired wonderfully with soup So good

The goodness that comes from their ovens is beyond compare. The ingredients they use are things like oat milk, sunflower butter, and more. Everything is handmade on a daily basis. In addition to baked goods, they offer fresh salads and sandwiches on their in-house breads. I absolutely love the chocolate rugelach, chocolate chip cookies (best ever!), blueberry muffins, chocolate croissant, French batard bread, and sourdough bread. They really have so much to choose from and it's all wonderful. Drinks (juices, coffee, etc.) also available. Support local---they deserve it!

It's a no from me... this is my second time trying this place, and both times have been…read moredisappointing... their food looks incredible on social media, but what you get is not even close. Unfortunately for this fish, it was bland, overcooked, and tasted of old grease. The fries were seasoned so much that you were essentially eating spoon fulls of old bay. The wait was almost an hour past our pick up time. I understand being busy, but it might be more beneficial to reflect a more accurate pick up time... Strange Roots itself is a small space with nice outdoor seating. I'm not a huge fan of the beer here either, but the bartender was very nice and accommodating during our visit. I hope if you try this place you have a better experience.

I ordered the fish sandwich pictured at the top of their menu. They were renting the space at the…read morestrange roots brewery, but they are usually a food truck. We ordered 2 sandwiches at 6:10 PM, the wait was a little longer than anticipated and was ready at 7:00 pm. It smelled mildly "fishy" but it is fish after all. First impression, it did not appear as advertised. It was missing the sauce and lettuce pictured on the website. I took three bites and unfortunately, the fish was hard. It seemed over cooked which may have contributed to the time it took to receive it. The grease also tasted old. The Mac on top was again, overcooked. The French fries were cooked well, but they had so much old bay seasoning and salt it was difficult to eat. I wish this were unique to my order, but I was dinning with three others, all ordering the same thing, and we all had the same complaints. I did request to speak with someone in the kitchen but they said they didn't have time as they were quite busy. The brewery was full and outside seating was also starting to fill so that is understandable. The bartender at strange roots had us write our names on a piece of paper and said the kitchen will refund the meals. I contemplated ordering a burger instead but didn't want to wait again so we did leave to dine elsewhere.

They use high quality ingredients and you can purchase certain gourmet meats, cheeses, and crackers. I thought my sandwich was good, cheese lacked some flavor. I also agree with a lot of reviews that the price is steep for the amount of food you get (I got the lunch special because it included fries, which are normally a $2 add on to a $12-14 sandwich).

Very light. Just a little greasy, need a couple napkins but not a towel. Pepperonis were delicious. Also, my order was placed and was ready within like 10 minutes. Huge huge plus. It looked so good I went straight for a slice before grabbing the pic. Also, serving out of a vintage bus, incredible.

That being said, they…read moreoperate out of a permanent truck/camper that is parked right next to the brewery and the outside deck leads up to the truck. This is very convenient to almost always have at least one food option while imbibing on some outstanding brews. I had never ordered here prior to this last visit. I don't usually order from food trucks but decided to give it a try. I went with the Fungus Amongus Pizza and subbed in dairy free cheese. I was incredibly excited for the pie. The pies were ready in a very reasonable time, and we sat down to eat. I first noticed how oily the pie was. The paper circle it rested on was covered in oil and it pooled all around the pie. I went to pull a piece out to sample it and was met with some pasty white undercooked greasy dough. Disappointing was the least I could say. I took a few bites, but the underneath was so unappetizing I decided to go ask for a box and re-bake the pie at home. I did not feel like asking for another or to fix the issue so that is on me, but I was expecting better for the amount of traffic that is happening here. Once re-baked at home the pie was good, not great. But at least I was able to get the crust cooked and blotted a lot of the excessive oil. I don't think I will eat here again, but others seem to really enjoy it, and once cooked properly the pie was average enough for 3 stars.

I cannot say enough good things about this place, but let's see what I can say…read more I was at VegFest recently and I stopped by Allegheny City Brewing Co. to grab a couple beers with my gf since the vendor who was supposed to serve beer at the festival canceled last minute. After grabbing our beers I noticed a food truck out back and since the lines were so long at the festival we didn't have the chance to eat anything just yet. So we sat down outside and enjoyed our beers and then I said let's go check out the food truck and see what they have. It was a super cool looking truck and chill af out back so we looked the menu over and spoke to the guy working about their food and he was super friendly and helpful to which I really enjoyed chatting with about local food establishments and breweries. I ordered: - The Vegan One (Outstanding and maybe one of my all-time fav sandwiches) - Pickle Tots (Wow Wow Wow, insanely good) This food truck might be one of my favorites in the city and I cannot wait to try them again.

They had my food ready and I paid and brought it back to Love, Katie. Our fries were delicious and so were the pierogis. I would definitely come back to try more items. They do have a dining room which was pretty full when I peeked in.
