★★★★★ 5.0 Maggie Smith · Oct 2025

Absolutely delicious vegetarian “turkey” sandwich and even the side of chick peas was so tasty. I’m in town visiting for work, and I’ll for sure hit it up one more time before I go home.

★★★★★ 5.0 Eduardo Calderon · Nov 2025

I was really impressed. The food was full of flavor — everything was well prepared, and the staff was super friendly. The place itself is a bit small, so I wouldn’t go with a big group, but when the weather’s nice they do have outdoor seating. The food was honestly delicious. Their V-strami was excellent, the gyro sandwich was amazing, and the vegan crabless cake sandwich was really creative with great taste. It’s a bit of a drive if you’re in central Jersey, but definitely worth the trip. I’m also looking forward to trying their all-day breakfast — I saw them making pancakes and they looked incredible. Expect a little wait since everything is made to order, and meals might come out as they’re finished. Other than that, it’s a really good spot and I highly recommend it.

We enjoyed our lunch. We're happy to have this vegan option in town. We got the stuffed nachos and stuffed sweet potato - generous portions and tasty. Everything is fresh. Friendly service. A bit slow so call ahead if you're time constraints.

TheMadScientist A.K.A Your VEGAN Cousin had a nice outside Lunch wit JuJu at The VEGAN SPOT. YOU MIGHT GET IT CONFUSED because it's connect'd to a JIM (gym) yet pull the LEFT DOOR OPEN and BAM You Are In THE VEGAN SPOT. Now the eats ROCK'N (great) from begin'n til end and will have want'n more. The Crabless Cake was pair wit a Kale Salad, Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes and a Spicy Dip'n Sauce and this COMBO is TOP TIER EATS in the VEGAN COMMUNITY like it's not a miss at all They All GO WELL TOGETHER never begin'n too much of one or the other. The Deconstruct'd Egg Sandwich was BIG L.Y.T (a good 4/5) if your look'n for an anytime Breakfast Sandwich. The Apple Pie Bits was a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TAKE on Apple Pie and not in a BAD way. If YOU ARE LOOK'N for WARM OR HOT Apple Pie this ain't it
