    VEGAN REVIEW It's…read morelike having a meal at your great aunt's house. Seriously, it's like someone's living room. Some will call it cozy. Others will call it chaotic. No one would say it's formaL or even uncluttered... I had the vegan spare ribs (I think?). One person working there with a massive menu & minimal cooking area. I was the only person there the whole time so it worked out fine, but I can't imagine what would happen if they actually had a lot of customers??? Anyway, my meal was yummy. I took a piece of apple pie to go but dropped it :( CASH ONLY

    We didn't know what what we were about to get into as we entered this cozy and eclectic little…read moreeatery in Downtown Schenectady but we were pleasantly surprised by the food and experience. You can't take a look at this menu and find nothing of interest. If I you put a Cheesecake Factory menu and put inside by side with the Moon & River Cafe menu they might have the same amount of items. The biggest difference would be the price. Moon & River is serving up incredibly affordable food. The offer Breakfast, lunch, and remain open well into the evening for dinner. This is a great stop for a quick to go lunch or breakfast or sit down in the afternoon with a snack and a cup of coffee as you settle in for a good book or play a game with some friends. In the corner it looks like there are some grocery items for sale. Our friends ordered turkey meatballs and tacos, and my wife and I ordered vegan nachos (we should have asked for vegan cheese which is available) that was topped with beans, salsa, and guacamole, but no cheese. My TLT was good but I don't think it was a smoky tempeh bacon, maybe just plain? My Lavender soda was good and pie with vegan icecream for dessert was great. Two vegans and two non-vegans approve, Moon & River Cafe is definitely worth checking out. Affordable plant-based vegan items and regular menu items for everyone else made with care and feeling. They totally deserve 5 stars for variety and effort but I am gonna give it a four because I think the a second person working, and a kitchen upgrade paired with a simplified menu during the open mic crowd could really help out. We will be going back to try something new.
