    I have been wanting to try this restaurant for quite a while. Previously, Rootbound. Same owner. Both vegan and gluten free menu. Absolutely amazing. I love the spiritual feel of this restaurant from the decor, to the music, to the sweet demeanor of the girls at the counter. There is a bookshelf of books to read. Games to play. A wall of inspiring art and messages made by patrons. I first ordered the Lavender Mate Latte hot while waiting for a friend to arrive. Loved it! Later ordered the Breakfast Burrito Bowl with zucchini noodles and lots of yumminess! I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu items. Great getaway to treat yourself to some good food and be kind to yourself.

    I've had good experiences in the past & have been a big fan of this place but unfortunately had a rough situation yesterday. My husband & I spent $300 for us both to do a standard 3-day juice cleanse here & were excited to start. We cleaned up the pantry & planned around doing this cleanse. We showed up at 3pm yesterday, which was a Sunday (our scheduled time to pick up the juices) & they had the closed sign up & door locked. No explanation posted online or in sight. Their hours showed they were supposed to be open another 2 hours & we could see employees inside cleaning up & talking on the phone laughing & talking. The man employee was behind the counter with no shirt on, which I found unsanitary considering his body hair was exposed to the equipment & prep stations. We tried to get their attention & called a few times but were completely ignored. We waited about 15 minutes hoping to get help, even leaving a message on voicemail. I called again this morning with no one picking up but Its been over 24 hours now and still have not been contacted. We've had to go through a whole headache situation through Toast (the third party company they use for their online orders) to cancel the order & get our money back just to find out the only way to get it is through Heartwood itself. I just can't believe a company would be this unprofessional & not try to at least explain or reschedule the order, which I could have been understanding about, but completely ignoring the situation is not okay. I'm disappointed because it's a vegan & environmentally conscious place, which is rare to find, but I don't want to support a business ran like this.

    Where has this hidden gem been? I realize that I have found my food vibe and tribe right here on Main Street! Fresh vegan and gluten free breakfast and lunch that is healthy and flavorful made with intention. Not only is the physical space cozy and welcoming with great community space, the staff is so friendly and kind. I will make this my go-to lunch or breakfast stop- it's close to my office. Not feeling like a full meal? They have a wide selections of smoothie and cold pressed juices and I will make my way through the entire menu! I had the chickpea tika masala and the Joy juice. My friend had a gluten free grilled cheese and raves about it for hours after! She has a severe gluten allergy so we don't get to go out to restaurants much, they did this right- and they made a raving fan of me!

    I've heard such good things about this place and had high hopes of a tasty treat. I wanted to try a dessert from a vegan restaurant so I stopped in to grab a treat to go. I was told they only had chocolate cake or cheesecake available, so I opted for the cheesecake. I was not informed that it was frozen, so it was an unpleasant surprise to find that it wasn't even edible by the time I got it home. Not to mention the freezer burn all over. Having paid over $8 for some trash is a major disappointment and deterrent from ever trying anything else here, honestly.

    Saturday morning calm.

    This is a complete GEM on Main Street. Everything on the menu is fresh, local, and carefully prepared. Lots of gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options to choose from. They feature Course Coffee and a number of other locally produced goods. Open mic night looks fun, I'll have to stop in for that sometime. This place will be on our regular rotation.

    Awesome vibe. All vegan

    This place was really good. Great vibe. All vegan. Cool historic area. Will be returning.

    Enjoyed our visit to Rootbound. This place definitely has a hippy vibe with smoothies, juices, and other beverages as well as food options. The space is very welcoming and there are plants and crystals decorating the place. The staff were very attentive and friendly, gave us our drinks and some pointers on how to best enjoy. I did make the mistake of letting my kava shot settle, if I got one again I'd drink it right away. My tea was calming. A nice space to relax with friends in small groups. Parking is mostly street though there are a few lots in the area and it's easily walkable through the charming downtown St. Charles area.

    came on a busy Sunday afternoon for the first time. I was able to secure street parking just a short distance away. When I entered, there was an Open Mic performer playing that was really good. The tables were pretty full, but i managed to grab one to have room for the friends who were joining me. The overall vibe there is very hip coffee shop. There is greenery in the front by the windows, interesting artwork on the walls, and lots of tables facing the large front counter. I was able to grab several tables for my group that was joining me. Other customers were kind and offered their tables as they left, so we had plenty of room, even though it was very busy that afternoon. Oh,and they have the coolest macrame seat hanging from the ceiling in one corner - it would be great place to read a book. There is also a large counter bar along a wall in the back! The food was mostly vegan and all gluten free. They have a wonderful drinks menu as well, and everything looks amazing. I got the Taco Salad, which was a secret menu option, and a maple coffee drink. Both were delicious! Each item is made to order so it takes a while for the food to come up. It was a wonderful way to enjoy an afternoon, and I'd love to come back to try more of the menu! Thanks Rootbound!

    Bean burger!!! Yummy!

    Great service and food was awesome! Will bring my daughter back! I'm sure she will want a smoothie.

    I don't know now many times I've been here, probably 20 times now, but every time the employees,…read moreespecially Marlina, are sooooo friendly and helpful! I'm always like oh to try something new (ok, as long as it's chocolate-related...) and they always help me choose something delicious! Prices are normal for a small coffee shop and the small-town feel is perfect! They have Dominoes and other board game and books available for use which is soooo nice- even ones for little kids. I'd highly recommend this place- so perfect!

    I've been to this coffee shop before, long time between visits as it's not in my area typically. I…read morewould say it improves each time I have gone. I think, I'm not certain, I think it started out as a ministry of the church and has become a full-blown coffee shop. There are items to purchase, like decorative items, the baristas are friendly and knowledgeable about their products, there were several people seated inside. There is the one seating area that's pictured, and then a separate larger room that seemed pretty full that day. Would be a great place for groups to meet to do a Bible study or something, nothing there demonstrates that has to be for Christians only. Love the touch of having a chalkboard where you can leave a prayer request. It's worth a recommendation if you're out and in that area!
