We were greeted right away which was nice. They offer an abundance of unique flavors not seen elsewhere. They also offer bigger straws which I love. I truly dislike that so many ice cream shops sell milkshakes with thin straws. The location was very clean as well. read more

Amazing food! I had the Vietnamese Noodle salad, and I added tofu as a protein. The tofu had a delicious crispy crust on it, which was delicious. This is one of the best, unique salads that I've ever eaten! I was with a group of 5 other people, so we decided to go sit at the tables outside, since the weather was nice. At first, we sat at a table inside, but the top of the table was very wobbly. The next inside table we tried had the same problem. That's the only negative I can think of about this restaurant, lol. Someone needs to repair or replace the wobbly tables! My friends had the Mediterranean salad and the Falafel salad, and they all said their salads were also terrific. I will definitely go back often! read more

Way too expensive--especially since they skimp on protein. Also--I signed up for a promotion to get 10% off my order, and was never sent the promotional code. read more

Deep Roots is an acceptable alternative but nothing seems outstanding. The Greek gyro was large but mostly vegetable with a thin layer of meat on top. The clam chowder was good but mot exceptional. One oddity is that they have blocked visual access to the ice cream so you cannot see what you are ordering..a very unusual practice. read more

carnitas tacos but subbed flour for corn tortilla. Three well made tacos came w/ verte sauce They were tasty, but were missing something in the flavor profile. I tried to fix it by adding a hot sauce, but they only had Buffalo sauce. It tasted like Tabasco w/ a touch of BBQ sauce, but it overpowered them, so I ate them as is. Theybwere not that good. My guests both ordered the eggplant wrap & both said it was tasty. The eggplant was not fried, it was grilled. One said there wasn't very much eggplant in the sandwich, the other said it was perfect, so there was either a consistency issue or the flavor just didn't come through. We also tried the chili & the clam chowder. The chili was sweet had no heat. It was ok, I could take it or leave it. Again, not memorable except for the excessive sugar. The clam chowder was decent. Tasty. I have eaten here before & although it has never been 5 star, it was not quite as Meh as this. I would still go back mostly out of convieninece, but I would not set my expectations too high. What a shame. read more

Always a great lunch at this wonderful spot. We sat outside on this beautiful day. I had a grilled cheese which is prepared on thick bread with two types of cheese and served with a cup of soup. I am not a fan of tomato soup so I upgraded to delicious corn chowder. My partner had a bowl with chicken, salad and rice. It was a little heavy on the rice but she enjoyed the chicken's flavor and the variety of vegies in the salad. We had no room for ice cream, but the front of this establishment serves a variety of unique ice cream flavors . Frankly everything on board sounded delicious so we will need to return soon . read more

Small and casual place, great menu with a variety of food options. We had the gyro, Greek rice bowl and Mac and cheese, all were delicious! The clam chowder wasn't our favorite style but was good. Friendly service too! read more

What a great spot! We've been to Grassroots many times and always say we need to check out "Deep Roots" nextdoor and I'm so glad we did! We ate outside with our dog too! I absolutely adored their Hairdresser Salad that came with a little bit of everything - pita, hummus, fries, salad. It was the perfect lunch and very "girl dinner" - I loved it! Definitely will be stopping here again! read more

We stopped for lunch on way back from the airport. Food was sold. Falafel plate was particularly good. Service was good. You order at counter and they bring food to your table. Decor is simple but nice and clean. Very good for what it is. We would go again. read more

Deep Roots Street Food shares it's space with Grassroots Ice Cream, with some parking in the front and additional parking (and outdoor seating) in the back. Deep Roots is in the back of the building, where you're able to order at the register after reviewing the large menu on the wall. The food is brought to the table, with cutlery and condiments available at a designated station. The food was very good and tasty, although outshone by the ice cream division. The New England Poutine half portion is more than enough for 3-4 people, with a heavy covering of cheese, scallions, and bacon bits. The clam chowder is at the bottom, so be sure to mop it up. The hot dog was hot and juicy, although the bun wasn't memorable. The chips are crunchy and well salted - homemade chips are such a treat! read more

We've been a handful of times over the past year. The food is decent and sometimes quite good. But the "ambiance" is lacking and the place looks rundown. There is a really nice outdoor patio, but it's not been weeded and it just looks pretty unkempt. read more

I dropped in here, absolutely starving, intending to grab some falafel. Instead, the carnitas tacos were ordered. 1 1/2 tacos down, I'm too full to speak. 3 fresh corn tortillas filled with tender carnitas and a bit of salsa Verde. I'm already planning g on my next trip- the beer selection is small but looks very good! read more

The falafel wrap was sooo delicious! A little weird that it was in a regular tortilla instead of pita bread but it didn't effect the taste IMO. And the falafel was actually not dry! The hidden gem are these house chips!! Was expecting just regular chips with tons of salt but boy was I wrong. These were crunchy with GREAT flavor and didn't taste overly salty. Love how they're handling Covid. Drive up - park in a numbered spot - give them a call - and they bring your food right out to you! WILL COME BACK read more

Street food is a way of life in India...the concept of a globe hoping experience was quite intriguing which is what drew us to this place ...that and the crowd gathered outside creating a fun festive atmosphere. The menu is quite extensive, soups, hummus, poutine, cart fries ,sandwiches , wraps, dogs ,salads and a melting pot of flavors. Usually I save dessert for last (ok, you got me ....not true I start with dessert first and usually fill in with food if there's room left) ... the wait for food was almost 45min ...convenient to indulge in a few unique flavors @ the scoop shops next door without having to make an excuse before the meal. Exciting flavors, we tried the lemon poppy cake and toasted almonds in coconut... was ok! Food on the other hand was great although we had it to-go tasted good even after couple hrs. Greek cart fries: waffle fries loaded with tomatoes peppers onions feta and olives....so delicious! would go back to eat just that. The falafel wrap was ok ..the falafels were so dry...definitely needed a soda or some drink to make it easier to chug down. read more

I love the food options at this take out restaurant. The first time I went I thought it was good. The second time I went it was much better. The thing I like is that they have some healthy options and choices for a variety of eaters. I look forward to trying it again. read more

Good pub food , great ice cream. Pleasant atmosphere , pleasant staff and clean restaurant.

Our first time there, Loved it. We had a salad with Chicken and the Asian Tacos. Both very good. Maybe the best tacos I ever had!

Supporting our favorite ice cream joint, we finally decided to check out the food side, Deep Roots! This place is perfect for takeout, so in these crazy times, I was glad to try this for lunch. Hubby went with the PHO-RRITO and I had the gyro. We both stuck with the housemade chips as a side (felt like $4 upcharge for sweet potato fries was a bit pricey). The phorrito was good but would've been better in bowl form since the way it was layered made you miss some of the flavors. It also could've used a sauce or dressing, it felt dry with all the veggies. The gyro was super good, great flavor, cooked perfect and balanced flavors. Would most def get this again! Yes, of course we had ice cream after! Glad to finally try the food and grateful to the employees for working and staying open for those of us essential workers who need a break! read more

Food was delicious! Fresh ingredients and nice mix of Vietnamese and American comfort food. Service was excellent too.

Really interesting range of sandwiches and other dishes. Lots of veg options.kid and family friendly.

The food was great and the bottled soda was extremely good. The service was good as well. They only use fresh and local sourced food. The ice cream stand in the same building serves fresh in store made ice cream. This was off the hook. I strongly recommend this establishment. read more

I tried the Rosie Chili Cheese Dog. It was OK, but nothing spectacular for $10.00. The hotdog was crossed sliced and grilled until almost burnt. The chili was bland and there was no cheese that I could see or taste. I uploaded a picture and you do see something yellow, but that is the mustard. The bun was like any grinder/sub roll I have had at a million different places. I can't see how they call it artisanal. Would I go there in a pinch? Probably, but I will not seek it out for food. read more

Good food the beef cilii is a family fave...prices are reasonable and bonus ...great ice cream next door !

Food was good. You nailed it on the pork. Prices were high for what was served. No food in dog bowls please. Hummus is amazing, try it. Comes with pita and cucumbers, I will do cukes over pita any da Great food, keep it up!! read more

Use to love this place and their greek gyros but that all changed with the last one I ordered. Took a bite and choked on a huge piece of plastic wrap mixed in with the food, yea no thanks. Totally unacceptable and disgusting to have this experience, really speaks volumes on how they keep their kitchen area clean. It was enough to make me not return and I suggest you do the same. read more

One day you're going to have to face A deep dark truthful mirror And it's going to tell you things (Elvis Costello - Deep Dark Truthful Mirror) One of the things that deep dark mirror might tell you is that the popularity of Grassroots Ice cream has created a spin-off venture right next door. Not Grassroots II, but Deep Roots Street Food. Their ambitious Mission Statement is simple - to offer "an ever-changing menu of global street food" designed "to honor those who came before us" and "pay homage to the Great American Melting Pot". Not too shabby, is it? Their menu is inspired by foods all around the world. They sell some Hand Held Street Foods, like Falafel Sandwiches, Hot Dogs, a kebab wrap and a Banh Mi. They sell Mediterranean, Vietnamese, Indian inspired bowls and salads. Dig deeper on the menu and you'll find beef and chicken skewers, Turkish Fries, and even a temptingly named New England Poutine. Get the picture? Creativity is key here, and they do a pretty good job on their menu. We had lunch on a Saturday and I chose the Banh Mi Vietnamese Sandwich ($9.95) -with Lemongrass Beef, carrot, cucumber, and Daikon radish slivers, jalapeno slices, cilantro, and a chili vinegar dressing on a bun served with chips. The sandwich was great -a terrific mix of hot and colds and spice, with tender meat, soft bread, crunchy vegetables, and some potent jalapeno slices. Their excellent Modern Street Dog ($7.95) was a prodigious quarter pounder served with sauerkraut, sweet onions and a secret sauce. Hosmer sodas are $2.50 a bottle, we split a tangerine flavored sparkling water that was pretty good. You order and pay at the front counter where they give you a playing card on a metal stand to take to your table. Your order is delivered to your table a few minutes later. The brand-new dining room is very nice, with tan and beige walls, and dark wood accents on the lower walls and ceiling beams. They have about ten tables in their space, and another half a dozen or so in the central space between Deep Roots and Grassroots Ice Cream. We really enjoyed our meal today. Well done Deep Roots Street Food ! read more

I love this concept and the new space is so warm and inviting. The counter service was super friendly and lunch was speedy. The menu items unique and interesting. I tried the hairdresser salad. I liked the Mediterranean flavor explosion, all of the ingredients were fresh. The presentation was outstanding. I really disliked the moisture of the fries underneath the salad after the dressing is poured on etc. I will return and try something else. Lunch (my salad and a drink) rang in at a bit under $20. Of course, being attached to the best ice cream shop anywhere around is a huge plus. read more

Grassroots ice cream is one of my favorite summer destination. Deep Roots is inside the same building, and finally I got to try this place. I went on a Friday evening without ordering in advance. I had to wait for more than an hour to get my order. While waiting I had an ice cream from Grassroots, so wait didn't feel that bad. For food I went for Hairdresser Salad and a Greek Gyro wrap with falafal. Both were really good with fresh veggies. read more

One of the restaurants that have been keeping myself and my fiancé sane during quarantine by offering not only delicious ice cream, but wonderful lunch and dinner as well!! The menu is a comfort food/street food lovers dream, filled with different grilled cheese options, gyros, Turkish Berliner, poutine, "pho-rito," salads, chili, soup, etc. The website to order and pick up is super easy to use and you can order both deep roots seafood dinner and grass roots ice cream for dessert! The staff is always quick to bring your order out to your car and the location is great for anyone in the Farmington valley or southern MA to get to. Just go for it and place your order this weekend! read more

Berliner, noodle salad, and falafel are good. The specials really never jumped out at me but deep roots has always been consistent. Get a few extra sides of the feta dipping sauce and it goes nicely with just about everything! A bit pricey, we were frequent fliers here for a long time but had to cut back. We are in a standoff between their ice cream and tulmeadow being a favorite! read more

We enjoyed Deep Roots Street Food very much! It's a very nice, modern restaurant in a great area of Granby. Their menu offered a variety of different traditional street foods from various parts of the world such as Greece, Vietnam, and Quebec. We chose to share a banh mi sandwich. It was so bright and fresh.. ingredients were clean and fresh and the flavors were delicious! We are eager to go back to try the other dishes they offer- and to try the ice cream shop right inside the same space! read more

My family went to grab ice cream at Grassroots but realized we needed to eat first so we walked through to the restaurant side. Soooo glad we did! Some really interesting takes on food and I was nervous because they had twists on most items but OMG- they hit gold. We had the roasted Brussels sprout taco. I know it sounds crazy but it was one of the best things that I have eaten in a really long time. It had flavorful soft small brussels sprouts with roasted nipples of sweet potato, Sriracha sauce and it was heaven. read more
