    White peach and green tea sweet
    ChiChi A.

    This place is a hidden gem and absolutely amazing! Everything was extremely fresh and delicious. The waitress was patient and kind, especially because we were a semi big group. The food came out in a timely manner and the prices are extremely reasonable. The place was clean and well kept. Will definitely try this place again!

    nana cakes and green tea

    portions were large and the food was great! service was also pretty fast and our server was very accomodating

    Mac and Cheese Pie

    Truly what a sick cafe. Seems like this cafe was opened up in a previous warehouse which makes for a super cool ambiance. I came in on a Saturday morning with my brother and sister-in-law and we all unanimously agreed that this place was a hit. We had called beforehand to see if there would be a wait and the waiter who picked up the phone assured us a table would be waiting for us upon arrival, which surely it was! I ordered a dirty matcha iced latte which was made to perfection. Earthy matcha tones cut perfectly with a bold espresso with a tad of sweetness coming from the brown sugar. Food wise we got the Parma chicken sandwich, cheesesteak, and vegan chicken and waffles. Everyone was more than satisfied with their dish. And to top it all off, there was a DJ playing bops the entire time. Can't wait to come back and make my way through the menu.

    Aesthetic is cool and the servers are great but lack of heat is the nail in the coffin for this place. Also I ordered an omelet and because the grill wasn't hot enough I couldn't get it. Go figure. Great food but please please do something about the heat, I shouldn't need my jacket and hat inside. The place has potential but a few things need to be rectified.

    This is what they gave me for $15 dry ass pancakes

    Pancakes are dry as hell. The service was bad took forever to give me my plain pancakes that I paid $15 and it was not good. The wait was not worth it. I recommend pancake house in Edgewater best place.

    Main Menu

    Very trendy and cool decore. I would describe it as rustic-industrial-steampunky. There are concrete counters, bespoke wood tables, and a lounge corner with a bench and armchairs. The exposed kitchen adds a sense if comfort to the decore. The staff is very helpful and chill. They patiently explained the different menu options and dishes. I sampled the roasted chicken sandwich. The BBQ sauce was not the traditional southern sweet and tangy or smokey style, think more chicken curry spices. It was delectable and a hefty sandwich. The sweet potato fries were very well fried and crispy to perfection. The Sweet and Zesty salad did not disappoint either. I have no doubt their many vegan favorites are likewise expertly done and I am eagerly waiting for the next opportunity to sample from the vegan menu.

    Vegan Burger, Triple Blend Burger, Mac 'n Cheese
    Celena C.

    3.5 stars. Very cute, cozy cafe. We came in the month of October, and the cafe was so well-decorated for Halloween. The food is just okay though. I love that they have a large selection of vegan food, and a lot of it looked very appealing. I got the Impossible Vegan Burger, which wasn't bad. The tart tomato sauce was pretty overpowering though, so scraping some of it off helped balance out the flavors. The impossible patty was juicy, and the sandwich overall was pretty filling. My friend got the Triple Burger and Mac 'N Cheese. She said the Mac 'n Cheese was plain and didn't have enough seasoning and that the macaroni was a bit overcooked and soggy. She said the Triple Burger was juicy but also could've used a bit of more seasoning. We also got some bakery items from the counter. The items looked better than they tasted, so we were a bit disappointed. - Vegan Maple Walnut Donut: Didn't taste fresh -- the donut bread tasted stale. It was very sweet though. - Vegan Bread Pudding: Flavorless. We got it with berry compote on the side, which helped a lot. Without it, it would've been very plain. There was also the option to have caramel or vanilla sauce on the side. The berry compote was not too sweet and pretty watery. I thought it was just the right amount of sweetness, but my friend thought it could've been sweeter, so maybe getting caramel or vanilla sauce on the side would've been better for her. - Pumpkin Muffin: Soft and not too sweet. The bread was on the lighter side. Tasted like it was missing something. They have many bakery goods, but nothing was outstanding. They weren't terrible, but they did leave us feeling there was more to desire. When coming here, I'd probably skip the bakery goods and just come for the decent food, ambiance, and support for a local vegan-friendly eatery.

    Vegan Vegan Chicken & Waffle
    Saniya S.

    A brunch spot with a vegan menu?? Count me in. I don't know why I never stopped by Blueprint when I lived in Newark but I'm glad I got to visit when I did! Food was great, interior is so cute, DJ had great music going, it was a great vibe! My friends and I all got different items from their vegan menu, and I think I really liked my friends' breakfast tacos and my chicken and waffle. I really liked the "chicken" in my meal. Overall, great spot for brunch!

    Pepper Bacon Sausage Omelette
    Donesha T.

    Stumbled upon this place while waiting around for an appt. Came on a Saturday. They offer takeout at the counter or dine in. Live DJ on Saturday when we arrived I ordered the Pepper Bacon Sausage Omelette which came with a slice of bread and ordered a separate side of potatoes. The omelette is huge. They do not skimp on the filling. A lot of sausage, peppers, onions and asked for light mozzarella. Well seasoned. Potato's are also seasoned and cooked well. Would've loved if there was a little more of a crisp to the potatoes. But still very good. A very extensive menu. Brunch and lunch options. The burgers looked really good. They also have vegan options. I'll definitely be back when in the area.

    Hollie R.

    Vegan-friendly! The menu had multiple vegan options available. Portions are massive. I had the tofu scramble which was just OK - wish it had more developed flavor. I could taste the spices, but something was missing. My partner had the sausage omelet and enjoyed it. The interior is very cute and well-decorated. There is seating outdoors as well. The parking lot is right before the building and can be easily missed.

    Went here with a vegetarian friend, who is also not a huge fan of the veggie burgers that taste too…read moremuch like meat. It was a risk, because you know how vegetarians can get about cheese (I'm vegan now. When I used to be vegetarian, I'd get annoyed if a meal didn't have cheese in it, or if it had vegan cheese. I've noticed that a lot of my currently vegetarian friends are the same.) , but I figured that he would be cool about it, because he knew that there wasn't much else in the area that I could eat that had a/c. I love my city, but the restaurants need to get their a/c game in order. This is a slightly elevated burger joint. The options are meant to be on the healthier side, so they do stuff like sweet potato fries or a side salad with the burgers instead of potato fries. Here's my tip: get the salad. You'll be pleasantly surprised at how much flavour they can pack into a small but mighty green salad with some dressing on the side. It'll mean that you can avoid eating sweet potatoes (unless you like sweet potato, in which case, you're at the right place). That said, the side salad was excellent. Crisp greens, and a few bonus veg, with a creamy tasting dressing. No complaints, 5 stars. My friend got the black bean burger, and I got the chickpea burger. We got the burgers exactly a said on the menu with no customisation. This was a very VERY good choice. The chefs at Brick City Vegan know what they're doing, and they absolutely season the heck out of the food. Everything tasted so good, and the table fell silent as we demolished the food in front of us in the cool a/c. There was a napkin dispenser on the table, which you will need, because the burgers are generously sauced, and a bit of a mess to eat. Who cares? The food is incredible, and just the right amount of filling. Both of us ate every last morsel, and left feeling satisfied. For both of our burgers, I think it was less than $30 grand total after taxes. Not the cheapest meal, but certainly not at all expensive by vegan standards.

We ordered at the counter and a high top table was prepared for us to sit in and eat. Service was friendly and kind for explaining the options and we even got a sample of a smoothie being prepared while we waited for lunch. They really know how to make veggies taste so rich and filling that you HAVE to come and try it if you're looking to explore a plant based diet or more vegan options and flavors! Street parking was sparse but lucky. Two filling vegan lunches and two cheesecake desserts with tax and tip the total was around $50.

I tried the lauryn hill bowl and the young Hendrix. To say the least the young Hendrix was a 10/10 dish featuring an extreme amount of flavor encompassing many different tastes, a pleasant experience for the pállette and every bite keeps one entertained and at edge of their feet truly. The lauryn hill bowl also had great flavor. These dishes are light years more impressive than other restaurants and other vegan restaurants as they are super healthy. The restaurants sends a clear message to the world that you can enjoy your food to the highest ability and it still be very healthy! I hope they open more locations as they are seized for success if they are able to market themselves properly and get people in the door. One critique would be a better ventilation system in the kitchen as fumes did emit into the dining area to the degree, poor ventilation would be my only critique but this is very minor when looking at all the other things. Very budget friendly restaurant, excellent accommodating staff, over the top tasting healthy food! Plan to come back as much as possible in the future
