the root cafe

I can't say how much I love this place. Kind staff, great vibes, and the food is heaven on a plate! Eating here may be one of the best decisions you can make.

Not the best flavor. We had breakfast, spent $50, and it wasn't great. We'd be open to trying lunch/dinner in hopes the food is better.

Super comfortable place with delicious food and drinks! Love the atmosphere and style!

Great little place, lots of options if you're gluten free. Very chill and good place to sit down and write, read a book, or have something to eat. The coffee is wonderful. Love it!

I've known this location since it was the Phoenix. I come here after college sometimes, and it's always a pleasant experience. Great vegan food and coffee in a beautiful coffee shop that even features paintings and photo galleries of local artists that you can buy off the wall! The only time I had what could be considered less than a positive interaction there was when I waited over half an hour to get coffee because the person serving me forgot to make it, but I was given an entire extra 12-16 ounces of coffee for the inconvenience, so I'm not even bothered. Regardless, it's one of the best hangout spots in lakewood and I strongly recommend it.

Had a vegan breakfast burrito, it was ridiculously good and the portion was excellent.

Woooow oh woooow great vegan food AND large portions. Definitely come here if you want to get full. The chef said, "Oh yeah! We don't play!" My kind of people 🥰 Come support this wonderful business. Tea of course is also great I got the #4 Don't get it twisted with nettle leaf 😎

i ordered a ginger cookie and mexican hot chocolate and my friend ordered an iced chai and a chocolate chip banana muffin. service was good but the food was a little less than mediocre. the ginger cookie was dry and flavorless. the hot cocoa was essentially just a spicy glass of warm milk. her iced chai had no flavor. the banana chocolate chip muffin was pretty good though. was not worth the money.

They're chai is not sweet and absolutely lovely for a crisp fall day!

I've said it before and I'll saw it again. Though an omnivore myself, nothing vegan or vegetarian has ever disappointed me. I crave their tempeh sandwiches. Very good coffee too.

Very friendly, low key, community-focused places. One of my favorites.
